Funny line aside, it struck me out how there were no winners in that thread, and that the club as a whole lost out. Quote

Sparkymart Posted August 6, 2017 Author Posted August 6, 2017 At least the club has learnt from the past and made the change I've been on to many sites that are like our old one and unless you're in the "click" I can be an intimidating place to be and people Just dont stay Quote

In the light of day, the following morning, I very nearly self-censored myself, (purely in the regular club member sense, nothing to do with moderation), but I had exactly that thought. It stands as a good example of how not to do things, and as an example of the sort of free for all that results when certain attitudes/behaviors are allowed to flourish. Down the pub, or over a pint at Stoneleigh etc, where everyone is face to face, things are different. (Mind you, even then, some of the things that used to go on would have seen you "called out".)
