To wonder why EatShitDerek aka FuckitBucket has been banned?

[Arsenic]

Pru

again, you think I'm unable to see anything but black / white.
but you don't know me, so what's the point of stating something like that?
that is when it starts.

people stating "facts" about the other as if they were true. the expected reaction is that I would start defending myself.
na ah

I don't thing Zing is exhibiting defecit in understanding or lack of sophistication of thinking on that subject.

She just holds a specific opinion on a specific incident.

It's really not complicated.

..and back in again.

Dino, that's not true. There was one alleged goader. I only got called that right at the end, but will count myself and Julia in for the hell of it as I assume that's who you mean.

Julia had been posting under that name since at least March 18th
Ant since at least March 8th

and me since Saturday, which was the previous day. So you're incorrect. Also our posting times had clashed within one minute on advanced search so it was almost impossible.

It was obviously nothing more than a quick glimpse and a casting around for an insult to throw in order to try and discredit/whatever the motive was to accuse.

Psip

i thought it was over

Indeed

it would be if folk didn't make stuff up. I see it as fairly irrelevant anyway, to the argument on the thread, if we were three people or one person.

One person alone can make a perfectly good case. It doesn't mean they are wrong, just because they are sock puppetting. Not that I was/we were [gets confused and eats own head]

What I mean is it was a straw man.

We even had a longevity competition on the thread.

psip

bless you.

FWIW it must have been hurtful for you to be shouted at when you were innocent of the alleged action.
I thought it too, though didn't say it. sorry you got upset

The point was that by mentioning socks Derek was just giving voice to an understandable suspicion.

Given that none of the three posters had posting history longer than a fortnight and were being rather rude.

Zing that is very very sweet of you. Many thanks. I am quite touched.

Arsenic - I'm going to ignore that.

Is she coming back then :(

I am totally and completely lost. I might wait for the film of it to come out.

Oh well she will be back tomorrow and MN will be back to it's normal self

Until the next drama,anyway.

Why Psip?

The fact is that there are serial GFers abroad on the boards who do NC and make incredibly personal posts to try to provoke a flare in reaction.

It's the context to the whole thing.

I never even get in a political bunfight when I'm wearing a new name in. It's just common sense.

Ah now that's a crying shame.

Derek forgot to word it thusly "You remind me of someone I once knew. She was a goady fucker"

(And the political isn't personal )

@ SB

I'll wait till it's on Netflix.
I refuse to go to any cinemas until they fit comfy armchairs or sofas in them.
I hate those trapdoor-bottomed contraptions. they are like toilets you could fall into and get stuck. or worse

Is she back yet?

nope. tomorrow apparently

Are you seriously suggesting I should watch what I post because some Miss Marple might think I'm some ones Sock puppet?

Fuck that.

It will be straight to DVD Zing, in the bargain bin.

Can't wait to see who is playing who in the cast list.

Or just be more philosophical if you get sock-hunted whilst wearing a new name on a contentious thread??

We've got a posh one screen cinema that has comfy seats and double chairs, we can take in glasses of wine too , .
