Glad to see it got shifted to the lounge.

Karma is a bit of innocent fun, and I'm sick to death of:
a) cynical comments about it.
b) people who want loads to 'look good' on the forum.

There's got to be more to life than sitting in front of a computer in a bedroom at night talking to a bunch of folk you're never likely to meet.
Or am I missing something ?

Though I might add that I'm not condemning those with a lot of posts for having a lot of posts.

It saddens me this thread even started, because I am not the only one who has started threads on this list and people are only asking for help or giving an opinion, they don't expect to be attacked.

Much karma on its way when it will let me send it again.

did you know all the answers to the above when you started out? if so why come on here in the first place?
This is an immigration forum what the hell kind of questions or threads are we supposed to start?

Some people seem to be a little touchy over something, I can't think what.

If you don't like the thread, just back off or don't read it.
I am surprise how quick this thread has grown in hours, shows you the shit we respond too
I think we all have varied lives, sometimes I read this Forum daily, sometimes I go for a few days, just the way it is. I don't run my life round it but I do enjoy the net, I ma not into TV or movies that much plus freeking soccer is on the box every day here.
And karma . . it is a bit of fun ladies and gents
For the record, just finished full day of work, been to the Gym, off to see my friend and then dinner with hubby when he returns home at 8 pm. Not much of a life but mine and I am happy, as well as a happy poster.

Re: Most annoying type of post...
Just a quick one to put my tuppence in. My only hope is that this thread doesn't put any newbies off posting. I know when I first joined I asked a couple of questions that had been asked a million times before (and yeah I should have done a search first!! ) but noone shot me down or ignored me. This forum is full of really nice people who sometimes wander off the point or talk endlessly about bisto ( ) but it all adds to the mix and in my book thats a good thing. If you're not going to upset anyone babble on I say
