I sort of agree ... I went to the lounge once and was slammed as a troll! me!! .... maybe it wasn't the lounge.........maybe it was somewhere else.......

Anyway, I just don't care to experiment. Canada forum is time-waster enough, especially recently. (Sometimes I have posted in the returning to UK section).

I rarely post, anywhere else, i have posted in the lounge & TIO but mainly stick to lurking and reading these areas, not because of being 'scared' just because i can't be bothered to reply to much of the content, ditto though in canada, i reply to what interests me and ask the odd question, but often just read and search. As to people being scared of the lounge, it is what it is, just a forum, you could think of it like a playground, some kids are nice some are not, you don't have to play

Limited time at the moment. I may take a look when I get to Canada and have the move behind me.

I spend far too much time in the Canada forum as it is without posting in another one.

No relevant option for me, but yes, I post outside the Canadian section. I am not around often enough to become a regular in The Lounge so I tend not to post there. I've been around BE long enough to have done a lot of reading and try to pay it back when I have something to say that might be helpful, but it does tend to be a bit random.

It's nice to be able to occasionally open the eyes of some small minded adult in 'Take it Outside' too.

Post here mainly for the familiar faces. Don't know anyone in t'others.

Default Re: Poll: Why dont you post outside the Canada forum?

I like the Canada forum (I assume you're including the Canada Immigration forum here) because people tend to be nice and quite forgiving of stupid remarks. I also post occasionally in the Going Back to the UK forum which seems to be a total bun fight most days and the spelling and grammer police are always on patrol over there.
