Because it keeps appearing in my e-mail box and when I have a look it's just banter now.
No Mate.

I don't think we are done here until such time as AZZ decides to either 'lock it' or sends it to the Twilight Zone of Cheeky Chat. Then it will have had the kiss of death anyway!

Well I have stopped all latest posts from the forum being sent to me.
Do it through your Profile. (I think).
And then you will know nothing about this thread being posted on, except in latest posts.

Then you don't need to click on it to read.
Do you?

I've reported several of the kitchen adverts over the past couple of days just because I'm sick of seeing them, they flood the forum with lots of crap!

I do not envy Matt's efforts at getting things right here for everyone though.
And of course one just cannot please everyone, no matter what you do with that.
At least Matt is trying to listen to our whatever moans and sensitivities there are here. Good luck with that!
To try and get this topic back on track, I will repeat my first post on this matter. I have seen nothing posted up to now to change my mind on what to do here in respect of Azz's question.

You're right Boozer, why don't we take a vote on it?
I'm in the leave things as they are Azz....

Re: Polite discourse vs hostility and rudeness

Ok thanks for the feedback everyone - we'll have a think and maybe put up a poll later
