"Most important posters"
Thats a new one on me!
How exactly is that one to be defined. Posters come, posters go. Few stick around more than a couple of years in any case.
Of course, its a dangerous game to be putting your words in other people mouths, especially if there is a danger that they might not agree with your own assessment. DBDs posted 7 times today, and I got an email from Steve this morning.

Re: Advice please
Your opinion may be backed up by a few, but believe me there are many other regulars that are sick to death with the constant rule breaking, inappropriate posts, cyber bullying, etc. The majority of people these days seem to be sick of it judging by the number of complaints and reported posts we get.

Re: Advice please
Entertaining, amusing, interesting? They most definitely are (well along with the likes of Novo).
I dont really know why Souv left (I can hazard a guess though), I dont know why Biiiiink left (such a shame), I miss Steve and many others who came and went.
Some people leave because BE has served its purpose for them, some people leave because it can be too much of a clique, some people leave because of posters like me and some leave because they cant abide the current mods.
Someone suggested that this 'poll' could backfire on me and the majority could suggest I was 'removed' by one method or another. If thats the result by the time the poll closes then great I'll accept it.

Re: Advice please
What's the peanut gallery?
Also (don't tell me off for being off topic but the topic is Butch so not that serious!) but after I have posted a thread I have to come out of it and then go back in to see if anyone has updated. How come I can't just sit in here and watch the new posts come up?
don't tell me off, don't tell me off, don't tell me off

Anyway - i'm back to enjoy the flouncing, especially as I'm now actually convinced this is one huge wind up...

Re: Advice please
So far it's looking good for carry on as you are and accept the consequences (i.e. prepare to be banned), followed by a self-imposed preemptive ban of yourself for however long. Seems fairly unequivocal to me.
