This got me wondering
After a deluge (well quite a few) PM's from members complaining about other members and having looked at some of the recent posts, it got me wondering as to how many upset, aggrieved, insulting or insulted people there would be if duelling was still legal LOL

To all who sent me messages, I will be looking into your complaints / requests and reply as soon as I can once some technical issues are resolved.

May I also mention in passing that threatening me, whether ‘veiled’ or otherwise is not a good idea and should be thought through.

Is it just me or are people becoming over sensitive and unable to stand up for themselves any more.
Is democracy and freedom of speech being slowly eroded by the politically correct brigade .
In the years I have been a member here I have only had to report one particularly nasty piece of work that continually verbally and publicly abused me on here ( and a couple of other unlucky recipients of his drunken diatribes). I have had a couple of heated debates but nothing that has got out of hand.
Out of order to threaten a moderator and unwise.

Guess I missed it also?! It's generally pretty friendly on here, there have been the occasional nasty pieces of work, who thankfully no longer grace this board with their presence. Sorry to hear things are getting nasty again, hopefully it'll pass!

I think people should get a life!! As per Bev I have only once made a complaint to the Moderator and that was not because they insulted me but other people.
I will always stand up for myself if necessary ( and for others too) but I do not go running to the Mods at the drop of a coin!
And, on the very rare occasion that I may be wrong :sunny , I will apologise.

Again BB, you're spot on. Too many people plead bullying, intimidation, etc when their own comments are rude and aggresive in their own right. A sense of reality is called for. The kitchen is naturally hot, those seeking more climatic temperatures should perhaps just stay out reather than inflaming the situation with inane comments.
