I agree, theres got to be some humour but some go way too far.

I really think this is a nice place for me to visit.
Where I have just left no one is nice to me and when I suggested in this nice weather, we went outside and played in the garden, someone took a picture of me trying to revive an old Victorian game, " **** the servant."

Where I have just left no one is nice to me and when I suggested in this nice weather, we went outside and played in the garden, someone took a picture of me trying to revive an old Victorian game, " **** the servant." now called croquete.
Then I thought we could try a little flutter and open a little Bingo Hall, everone is now so angry with me I have decided to buy a Scooby.
I will get rid of Speed Cameras, high tax on Optimax, Bus Lanes and, anyone who disresepects this serious side of this Web Page.
Yours John Prescott & Pauline.

Banter can be fun, and sometimes lets you see a different perspective. Trouble is it often just gets petty or boring.
For example, the troll in chief (TIC ?
, you know who I mean), often trots out the same old tirades that are just not funny any more.

Just a bit of fun.
Does anyone remember that?
Start of this thread was about Trolls n' stuff & people who aren't Scooby owners spoiling the forum.
I'm a Scooby owner and not a Troll.
The diversion was meant to illustrate how the thread has lost it's way.

its back on topic now.
sometimes a thread can dry up a bit and a bit of banter often pulls in posters that wernt otherwise going to post. these can then go on to post a valid opinion about the original subject.......in my book of rules, thats ok

Whilst not disagreeing with Moley (thanks for the insurance BTW) in any way shape or form, wouldn't Snet be a tad dull and boring without some of the colourful tirades? There is one certain poster on this website that has not personally insulted anyone but provided a few chortles. He has a mate called Barry

I second that sentiment Simon. From personal experience I hasten to add.

It is just the spiteful people i was refering to, a bit of banter is brilliant, but hurtful comments don't help anyone, and make some people on here (none of whom have posted on this thread BTW) seem like complete *****.

Yes this is a problem, when folk start castigating one another on a personal and vindictive basis then that is unacceptable. However that has gone on on here for ages under the ever so watchful eyes of the mods. Notwithstanding Sammy's rallying cry I would be very surprised if that changes any time soon.
