Anyone else think The Times should not be printing extracts from this new book about Royal Courtiers at this time? Incredibly stupid given that H&M are trying to mend fences? I feel really quite cross for everyone involved - William's efforts to build bridges etc, all going to be in vain now. Very naughty.

Yes so attack me to avoid answering the question.

I was ill in bed yesterday and this thread was my entertainment. But I never post on RF threads and very rarely on MM ones, which appear to consist of the same posters bitching repeatedly across multiple threads.

You never post on RF threads and in particular MM ones? Are you having a laugh? Grin

You’ve posted on the RF boards 170 times since June.

I don’t know why people say bollocks like this when it’s so easily disproved.

My thoughts too but I couldn’t be bothered refuting the claim.

Most are on this thread I’d say, a couple of other MMs. And nothing on the rest of the RF who irritate the shit out of me.

Bloody hell.

Do some people go round counting other people's posts?
I find that odd. But not surprising.
It should be about the post not the poster

Obviously I don’t go round counting other’s posts, there’s a search function that does it, but you know that really @Roussette so no need for the faux shock or naivety.

I don’t give a shiny shit how many posts someone makes but if someone is going to audaciously lie like that then yes I’m going to call them out on it with proof.

Sigh. No I don't know that. Since advanced search was changed, I don't go on it. I can't make it work.
And I don't go searching for other posters. I know some people do.

Smoke out the liars and the sneering.

Wrong again.

Yes most on this thread as in 101 on here, and 71 elsewhere.

But those 71 are not just on threads about MM, they’re also on threads with ‘Camilla’, ‘Harry’ and ‘Andrew’ in the title.

Looks like you also have posted about the royals in other areas of the site too.

No problem of course with you posting where and when you like, other than the hypocrisy of saying you don’t.

IrisVersicolor · 26/09/2022 22:58

I’ve looked back through my threads - I’ve posted on - racism and the RF family - that was a long discussion, the one on ER in Harry’s uniform. I recall another MM thread - but I couldn’t find it.

This MM stuff has been going for years, but it’s only recently I’ve even contributed.

Roussette · 26/09/2022 22:59

Gosh you are very adept at the search function aren't you?
Perhaps you should give me lessons

Advanced Search works very easily for me.

Bully for you that you don’t search posters.
I freely admitted I searched this poster because I knew what she was saying was a lie, I’d seen Iris’s name on other threads. I have no shame in searching yet it seems like you’re trying to shame me.

Roussette · 26/09/2022 23:01

Yes. You are what I would call a recent poster

Roussette · 26/09/2022 23:02

Why so sarky?
As I explained, when it changed, I grappled with it for a while then I couldn't be arsed and I don't use it. There is no need for the bully for you nonsense

So yeah as I said, most are on this thread.

Camilla is the one about racism in the RF as I said above, that was a long discussion.

Harry is is the ER thread as I said above. And Andrew was a post to say yes he’s a bit of a perv, and then to explain the tech of slowmo footage and shutter speeds.

I seriously might need help with that!

Do we need it? I’m not sure this has worked out the way you envisaged.

IrisVersicolor · 26/09/2022 23:11

But if anyone wants to read the Camilla and racism thread my contribution is all about the Dutch painting K&W displayed in the Obama visit, the status of enslaved people in 16th c Netherlands, and the lack of wisdom of the Carribben tour.

Yes most as in 100 - versus - 71 are on this thread, like you said.

But you also gave us bollocks about only posting on this thread because you’re ill and that you otherwise never post on RF threads, when you patently have over the last 3 months.

No shame in you posting on RF threads. Own it.

I was literally in bed all day yesterday and spent most of on here. I don’t normally have that kind of time. I said I’ve posted on a couple of other MM threads but never on RF threads such as the queen, Charles, K&W and that’s true.

If you read the thread with Camilla in the title it’s actually about racism in which I said precisely zero about Camilla. It was mainly about a Dutch painting.

IrisVersicolor · 26/09/2022 23:39

Anyway, all of this just to avoid explaining the need to bitch at length about this woman.

Hmm, not true still. You have posted on other non-MM threads in the RF section.

You may not have posted about Camilla directly on the Camilla thread…

…but you did post about Camilla directly on this Diana thread attached.

Or are you going to say that doesn’t count because it, like at least one other thread on the RF you posted on, was in AIBU and not The Royals?
