That the "popular" posters on here are often rude.

I won't mention names but some of them seem to be popular for....not a lot really. Certain people come to mind who have a reputation for being straight talking and funny but most of the time I don't see it. I find them rather disagreeable tbh. Is it just me?

Are you short of work today Hulls?

But op some people post such ridiculous things that rudeness is the only response.

I don't think there are any popular posters. There are clearly some who know each other in RL and support each other but hey that's fine.

Don't see the regular posters are any ruder than those who arnt regular. Who knows anyway people name change.

Theres no trap been set, but some of the posts on here are predictably nasty, troll hunters included.

There is no shelf life, new people come along all the time. I do think some of the "old timers" got a bit big for their boots. I used to get sick and tired of relationships being nothing but Shirley Glass ( religious nut who died years ago) and some awful woman who thought she was god's gift with lengthy and puerile "advice" Looking back there were a couple of people who were banned who should not have been let back on again, and poor Valhalla the dog expert who was banned for no good reason at all. it remains a sad truth that thousands of perfectly lovely dogs are PTS in pounds because of the current obsession with fluffy puppies.

I am ignoring my work today, exit. It is looking at me with beady eyes but I simply haven't the wherewithal today

PurpleHairAndPearls · 08/10/2015 15:09

Well I was going to post

But then I realised (ironically due to the fact I am actually crawling) that if I was crawling, how could I lick bums?! Unless everyone was sitting down...

Maybe I'm overthinking it

Yes Buffy in case someone invades your personal space below the waterline or farts in there or something. Wink

I like the big characters: the Bonsoirs, Xenias, Valhallas, old ScottishMummy etc and it isn't their fault if others find/found them intimidating
