If you find yourself struggling with loneliness, you're not alone. And yet you are alone. So very alone.

"If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"
Well yes....even though the lumberjack had ear protectors on, you could hear his yelling when it landed on his toes

It was snazys decision to post this poll, i'm just amused by the results.

I have nothing against Snazy or anyone else on the board, the reason I have stirred things up a bit was because I really am getting tired of the constant running commentary on his life.

In regard to people that say if I don't like his posts then just ignore them my answer is that, due to the amount of time snazy spends on the board he posts on nearly every single thread. He is impossible to avoid. Most pages are clogged up with him telling us another story or asking question after question.

I should also add that snazy is obviously a popular member of the board and has 'befriended' many of the regular users. It is interesting that not one has come out in his support, I would suggest that 99% agree with my point that snazy is taking over SN. Maybe quite innocently, but either way is was really starting to pish me off.

I think that my point has been made and proven so I will give it a rest now.

Thought I would break my silence to thank Chop for his insight into my life. So "thank you chopper"

Its for that reason I will STFU up now, so not to irritate anymore such high profile users, or disturb the delicate balance of serious topics on NSR.

I shall now retire to the sleepy hollows of my blog and continue to talk to myself

Sorry to have impacted your life on SN SO so very badly.
Normal service can now resume.


PS. Chop, I think you may has misunderstood the results of the poll too
Its only your small mindedness that leads you to believe I spent most of my holiday on the internet

PPS. The poll was posted to humour you in the first place, so its achieved its goal

Holiday Whats one of them?

After reading all this holiday bollocks and the links etc, I think you need to get a grip a bit, Snazy.

It seems to me, that you spend too much time online, just my opinion and no offence intended.

You posted this poll, and are now throwing the toys out the pram, which frankly I find childish. So pick them up and play nicely with them.

I only logged onto scoobynet once when I was in Cyprus on holiday and even then it was only because they had a computer in the pub

Classy.

Did you get barred after the first night, or did you behave?

How exactly do those two words warrant an infraction?

Scoobychick is that your doing?

when we go away we hardly read papers or anything, a few years ago, we where away when the first fuel protests began, we only found out about that when we phoned the sister in law up to make sure she was still picking us up from the airport, and she said yes if she could get some fuel because her red light had been on for 2 days

Same here.... couldn't give a stuff about back home when I'm in holiday mode , people (other than 'bloggers') that feel the need to continue with a presence at home by calling or contacting people shouldn't bother even going on holiday!

My office always asks me to take my mobile..... they can **** right off

Tactful

As for phones a spare Sim is the way to go, one that no-one (other than close family) knows the number to but that leaves you contactable or able to contact should the need arise

I use my mobile number for my business and have lost count of the amount of times I've taken business calls whilst on holiday in the past. I always explain that I'm on holiday then they say "Oh sorry to have bothered you, but can you just tell me a little more this boat that you have for sale...". No I fecking can't, grrr

Not any more though

Quite right Chris.

But I fail to see how agreeing with someone by saying 'amen brother' warrants an infraction. Maybe the person who did it would like to own up and discuss it further?

My main concern is that I have heard [from an extremely reliable source] that a certain moderator is feeding their cronies with personal information that should remain within the confines of the moderator and admin forum. That my friend is certainly not on.

Cyril.
