Most of the posters, receive a pension from the UK, and will have lots of questions about how to get things transferred from the UK.
If you dont want to read or participate in a thread, dont read it, it is not compusory. Simples.
Why dont you join a Spanish speaking forum and esclusively discuss Spain?

The amigos lounge should be renamed as the bull-shit and Bush. Could have fooled me that they claim not to read the Mail
Almost everything in there is about the UK
As for the "pissing" threads do you mean where someone quotes some figures from the Spanish news and half a dozen posters say what about the UK and rambles on about Hackney or somewhere
You only have to glance at the thread When the PP get in what will change....it got on to discussing the UK on page 2 and continued the same for 9 pages!!

why not indeed, there's nothing holding him back, is there?
As for threads that don't interest someone, as you say, don't read them, it's that easy. Someone told us that the exchange rate thread doesn't interest them, it was all in the thread title, so why bother reading it, and then taking the trouble to tell us of their disinterest?

Well as I have said before a little moderation would be useful and declare posters off-topic. Where is Mitzy anyway
The example I quoted re. the PP thread title was totally misleading finished up with loads of pages about UK unions in the past, why does no-one shift them to another thread

Ha,ha, I thought my ears were burning, though having briefly glanced at the thread previously, I kind of considered it a bit too petty and nonsensical to justify my involvement. 
Personally I couldn't care a toss which way threads go, wether it be about England, Spain or the price of Yak cheese in Outer Mongolia.
Anyone who retains an interest in the original topic is free to bring it back to life at any time if there is still sufficient interest. If not why worry about it ?
I suppose it is noticable how the dyed in the wool, here for keeps Spain fanatics still tend to concentrate their attention mainly on affairs back in Blighty, but so what ?
Maybe it simply demonstrates where their hearts still truly lie. For me personally overall I have no axe to grind, spending my time 50/50 between the two, enjoying both equally, and happy to discuss the pros and cons of each as and when the occasion arises.

EGO, EGO, EGO!!!!!!!!
That's what the site has become.
There are probably 10 people who are all fighting for the top position, wanting to be the top dog, the king rat so to speak.
These people have to have to comment on everything, so as to assert their expertise and supreme knowledge, etc. They are clusless about Spain, Britain and Global issues, but who cares, it's entertainment. A bit like Big Brother for a bunch of nobodies, lol.
It's amusing following it.
