"I would have thought that ranting and raving and being gratuitously offensive on Mudcat was probably not a good start."

Oh, but I ENJOY ranting and raving and being gratuitously offensive on Mudcat! And as we've established (to your satisfaction, Snail) that I'm a moral defective there's nothing to stop me, is there? How liberating is that?!!

But in my degenerate and ethically dubious way I still think that we should be pushing for higher standards in all forums in which folk song/music is presented. I have actually got some ideas/previous experience about how this might be achieved - but I'm not sharing with you because you're a stuck up prat - naaa, na, nanaa, na! (note the gratuitous offence for which I am now fully licenced!).

And Piers:

"If you don't like what's happening where you are then go somewhere else. It's really that simple."

That is pathetic twatery if I ever heard it! Why should I be driven out of my favourite singarounds by selfish idiots?
