Grooster has been around other Expat sites, giving the same story and frankly receiving the same kinda responses to his questions.

i don`t think he`s a troll, just a bit odd, since the drop in PC prices and easy access to the web we can expect the lower end of society into our lives.

What section of society do you come from then and where does every other poster on here fit in?

May I take this opportunity to welcome you to the family of BE and at the same time offer you a word of advice as a new poster. Think before you post.

Middle class educated.

Other members I have no idea.

Hello.

I`m always thinking.

My post does not contain any thing to which I regret or posted in error.

Do you believe that my post was insulting to you ?

If so I believe nothing I wrote can be misinterpreted.

I`m merely pointing out my belief that ill educated misfits may become more regular on public forums than in the past.

Grooster certainly does not install any faith in my thinking otherwise.

So how does that square with the fact that he could hold a pleasant and sensible conversation via pm?

Being a working class lass from the Old Kent Road I find this offensive

Well said Crispy

That`s a bit below the belt.
It is a public forum and we don`t mind who posts on here whether rich or poor, literate or otherwise as long as they abide by the rules and have fun.

I simply stated lower end of society, i didn`t mean to insult working class, i was aiming far lower.

Having read some of his responses i`d say he was pushing the rules to the limit.

But he is fun to read.

Yes he is. He is frustrating also. The one thing that does happen when he opens a new thread... it gets us all involved in one way or another and these threads seem to get the most views. There is always a lot of banter. He is close to the bone, but so what... and I`ve been at the end of one or two of his posts... you can`t get such a diversity of people from all walks of life and experience and expect us all to be the same and have the same view. I think it`s fab. Welcome Lim.

Still find your post offensive. What do you mean by far lower? Please name and shame, do you mean drunks, drugies, estate agents, homeless, people who don't wash, or do you just mean people who do not have an education?

Everyone regardless of who or what they are is worth something in life, no one is worthless although some people act as if they are.

Lim has left the building

Drummers!

Crispy? You is a pleb? Now if he had called you a chav, that would have been insulting.

I guess we are all 'hombres y mujeres de a pie' here, (all everyday types) and all the same in the board's eyes.

Todos Christianos o todos Moros.

As for some one coming in and sneering? Well, I liked Grooster, and I sure as hell know who I would rather have on here.

Did I miss something?


Pleb This is good a thing
