Re: The Pass Inn and Pass Out
You sod! I thought, trust me to come in on a new thread and upset someone straight away! What with the sh*t that has been flying around on some of the other thread's.
I'm sure I'll get you back, some way, some how......... (goes off to think of a good plan, well actually to cook the kids tea
)

Re: The Pass Inn and Pass Out
Now come on DB play fair....you can't just point out one part of the sentence out of context to try and hang your point on. Make sure there is a point there to be had first off.
Having re-read your further posts....if being on the front page is all that bothers you for one or two threads....er how come you are not bitching about Ex Fats....or have I missed something there. It hardly seems Canadian and could clearly be placed in the lounge?
Also, if there is only room for a few threads on the front page...what about the 442,278 threads currently part of the BE forum - surely they can't all be on the front page. Also, there are search facilities within each sub forum are there not. Are you saying the posters on BE can not use them?
It is again in my limited experience, but don't people just not bother searching anyway, they just jump in and beyond hello, we Jim and Sue, and we're off to Canada, what can you tell us about.....that is when they need nice friendly threads at the top of the page to be able to jump in so that more experienced people like yourself and others the opportunity to post people in the right direction - such as I did with Inse and Solarfish yesterday. Cooperation is what this thread and this forum is about.

I think these trivial threads have taken over and changed the essence of the forum. I am not alone in thinking this.
I took that quote as it said exactly what I think about the these threads, that they have a place and that place is in the lounge.
I have commented, I havent been nasty but as you think I have then I will be. So, you have your fun. To me its like overhearing a conversation at a bus stop. It doesnt help me know which bus to catch. To me its a boring waste of space and time.
Enjoy. I know I wont.

Re: The Pass Inn and Pass Out
I love the Internet, where else do you get squabbles over such meaningless and unimportant things? Where else are people so easy to wind up? It's like being in a pub shortly before closing time where the tiniest thing all of a sudden gets blown out of all proportion, except here it never results in fisticuffs and the police are never called and I don't wake up with the hangover

Re: The Pass Inn and Pass Out
I made my point. I dont see the need for another Susan thread. The ExFats thread was agreed by consensus, it could be moved down to the General section.

Re: The Pass Inn and Pass Out
It's funny, I really don't miss pub brawls since moving here, though I did see something in the paper a couple of months ago about someone damaging a parked car after a night of drinking! As you can tell crime is pretty serious here when that is what gets reported
