1of, when you started this thread I was convinced you were doing a parody and I thought it was mildly amusing.

Now I'm beginning to believe you're being serious. Please tell me this isn't so. :(

No, I never parodise...will be there soon enough. Who rattled your cage anyway?
Another badge still to come -possibly the most disappointing one so far.
Serious? Dunno what you call serious. Have a lovely evening.

I quite admire the way 1ofthe8015 is grimly sticking to the thread despite getting abused on all sides. No man over the age of 50 should use the word "offski" though.

Tat you say. That's a subjective view. I don't consider them cheap...not in my book.
(let me know if you want to order a copy)
I am serious though, you're right. Seriously worldly
enough to withstand a little undeserved mockery from an unpleasant
semi-civilised piece of shit.

This thread is a great example as to why the forum is so quiet these days imo.
We are all used to the irreverence and slagging that make this site different, but it used to be done with humour.
There is nothing funny or entertaining about the slagging that's going on here, it is personal and vitriolic.
This isn't the only recent thread with this tone and it certainly doesn't do anything for me so I reckon I'm out of here.
Shame, it used to be a great place to visit.

I completely disagree. Where's this abuse that's so out of the norm?

The only person I've ever seen get serious personal abuse (and hand it out) was biscuitman. Everything else is just fucking around.

Some of 1of's responses have been as if he's getting abuse, but I put that down to him not 'getting' the forum yet.

Man-up you pussies. :p

have to agree with you there. There hasn't been any out of the norm abuse lately. 1of's posts and responses have just been awfully boring (to me at least) and I guess people are just trying to rile him up to get things more interesting... maybe.

This forum has been dying as of late, there's no denying that, though I can't see what has actually changed for this to happen. Shame, I can't stand the other forum... I'm staying here.

I don't want to be any part of a death knell.
I'm out. Life's too short.
To the decent non-point scoring posters here...good luck.
To the others - fuck off.

well tbf it got pretty vitriolic pretty quickly, and then defensive and unoriginal, and then analytical and maudlin.

Im sorry, all I said to begin with was that they did look a bit crap.

From there on it was a somewhat interesting exchange and I did several times mention that had they looked at other threads they would see that I was in fact jesting.

all too serious IMHO. Each to their own and all that.
