Oh yes, and we all get our pics in the tabloids, too.

Anyone up for it?

I thought this was meant to be a useful, informative, supportive forum, with some lighthearted banter and irrelevant posts along the way to lighten the mood. Not death threats and character assassinations.

Agreed. Of late it has been getting about as scary and political as Tudor England, but without the frocks.

Least in AUstralia, you just get called a Wan*** , and thats the end of it.. But here it more sinister and engineered.

Sad when the only reason i come here is to read abc's posts and a few others, and use peoples experience as a barometer against out success/failings.

Erm, is this a criticism of me?

No, I think he was agreeing with you.

But if you like, I'll go & bash him up anyway.

Right. Total sleep deprivation on my part (at May Ball last night). Feeling sensitive and didn't quite understand Timber's comment

I did notice that after WBB was banned the first time, he did seem to keep his more outragous comments out of the "Australia & NewZealand Forum" , and not having seen much of the take it outside forum, I hadn't heard that much from him for ages. It almost seemed that he had made a choice not to disrupt this particular forum.

He was a frequent visitor to 'Moving Back to the UK' (and lets just say when he posted in there it wasn't to wish us well)

It's alright, no bashing necessary (wouldn't want to be banned for being aggressive in a thread about WBB being aggressive)

I only come on this part of the forum.

Why would anyone slant someone moving back to uk????

Doesnt this beggar the question , "surely they have personal reasons ""?

Id hate to have to move back, but its a reality, and if I had to id expect encouragement and not damnation

Don't confuse my poor sleep deprived brain even more! I'm a pacifist, honest. No aggression here, promise.

This what I just posted in Janeyray's thread.

Just remember: WBB was not just banned because of his comments to Ceri.

He was always(mostly) quite nice in this forum, but that certainly wasn' t the case everywhere

---------------------------------------
I started the poll thread. But the reason was, because WBB started the thread about those returning to the UK were tossers. I was defending(most of) them.

Now, my poll thread was moved(very understandable), and closed.
While WBB's offending thread was kept open(and is still going strong).
But, eventually it did lead to him getting banned.

Only strange thing is, people seem to think that the only reason he is banned is because of those nasty comments to Ceri.
I do think that is enough to be banned, but it certainly wasn't the only reason!!
Problem is, he was always nice in this (Aus/NZ culture) forum. I used to like him too. But just because he's in other forums, and pm'ing, it doesn't give him the right to be that abusive.

Lately he was getting more and more nasty(even to me, told me to bugger of back to this forum when I was defending hiddenpaw/pants).
Also, in the past he's accussed Ceri of pm'ing him with abuse, with a new identity, which has never been proved. And I really don't believe it.
