Not a good reason, he just got ground down by the paranoid pair and lost the rag. It's time to ignore them, they'll maybe go away and leave us in peace.

You need an extremely thick skin to stay on the org it gets quite personal and hurtful and in mu opinion theres no need for it. :(
I feel truly sorry your friend leaving but maybe for the best the way things seem to be going x

There are far too many personal insults here these days and with so many young children on the forum, I think people really need to curb their behaviour.
What are these types of posts teaching impressionable youngsters?
We need to think before we type and look at the wider picture and wonder who is going to be reading these threads.
We are supposed to be the adults and lead by example :eek:

Maybe the following would be helpful:
"Think of posting on the org as like being in a boisterous and slightly rough pub on a friday night at 10:30pm.


Think before you speak/ post
Try to consider others feelings, take a wider view
Don't bang on
If you're going to bang on, do something to keep it fresh and interesting
Try and stay off your hobby-horse
Remember there's a good chance someone will try to nip your erse
You can make lots of pals, or lots of folk who think you're a buffoon. They won't hate you, just think you're a clown
Don't be surprised if you get knocked over by someone who's a bit pished
Expect to get your bag nicked (if in Wick)"

But this is not an over 18 zone it is a family forum and we have kids here as young as 10 that I am aware of.

I fear there will be more sane, intelligent orgers taking the same action and leaving this asylum until there is nothing left but the looneys posting on it.

It's so obvious to many of us which posters are the ones who are simply trying to get kicks out of hounding and bullying on here. It's a shame we cannot vote them off.

This forum used to be a great place to come along, catch up and have a civilised conversation or at least take the mick in a friendly manner.
Not any more!

I don't understand why people have to leave because of one or two posters. For every loud nutter there are plenty normal posters. I have found through other forums, that if the culprits are totally ignored, they soon go away.

There are always going to be Keyboard Terrorists, that's just the way of the web. Don't respond or react to them, and they can't hurt you. :)

It was an attempted joke, emphatically NOT an attempt at bullying, certainly not a genuine attempt at having a dig.
I am sure as many bags get nicked in Thurso as in Wick.
