All we've had tonight is innuendo & smut. Please remember this is a family friendly forum not a sad old pervs chat room.

Please keep your posts clean. One or two threads in particular are getting dangerously close to being deleted.

The general quality of this forum is beginning to go down the pan, how many posts are going off topic almost immediately????

Now I'm all for silliness, & am guilty of it as much as the next man, but it is getting beyond a joke.

I am seriously beginning to lose interest in this forum because of the above reasons & I know of others that feel the same.

If this offends anyone then that's just tough. Stop & think about why it offends you, maybe you are one of the guilty parties.


Rant over now, but I feel I had to say something as it is getting beyond a joke.

Glad someone finally said it. The 'Off Topic' banter has gotten really out of hand lately.

The majority of regular posters are probably guilty of either going off topic or getting a bit near the mark on occasion...to varying degrees.

This certainly includes myself, for which I apologise.

:sorry:

That is why i created the off topic topic thread.....not to be rude.....but a place to take off topic bits.....which i hope didn't offend anyone....was only meant for a place to talk about off topic things.....:)

I consciously try to avoid it, but I am as guilty as the rest (well, apart from Dragonfly, Rob, Penmare... :p)

Why not just re-name the thread 'Off topic dumping ground'......you can then stick everyone's off topic post's in there........bound to get the picture after that!:)

Sort of polite way of getting your point across.....

I'm a culprit! I do it because some one types something and things come in to my head and they have to be typed out!

That's really a last resort (well, apart from banning people! :eek: ), and it's not something we really want to do to anyone - especially since it causes us a lot more admin work moderating every post the person makes!!!!!
