Meow!

Are there any female mods? maybe you could be the first

Oh dear, did the truth touch a nerve & hurt his poor ikkle feelings?

They way they get treated? The lack of courtesy shown to them & the slagging off of those that do have good manners? No thanks!

It was getting heated, it would have been quicker & easier to delete the thread, but it was purged instead; that deserved a thank you.

[Jumps in]

I'm just going to jump in and say, it's not that difficult to delete multiple individual posts from a forum ...

Who cares? Really, who cares? If a post of mine gets deleted, I don't see the point in whining like a little bh, it's not like anything has been physically taken from me, it's just a few pixels on a screen.

I don't understand the emotional attachment people are having to words they've typed online and the hysteria over the deletion of inappropriate content. Who cares what happened in the past either? We used to hang people for stealing a Mars bar, now it's frowned upon. Similarly, the site has moved on and it seems poking fun at dead people isn't really the done thing. Deal with it.

fk me, your lives don't start and end on Pistonheads.

Most of them have double standards though, sometimes it is like they have created their won little handbook for their own ends, rather than a consensus of general rules.

There's certainly one mod who seems to enjoy getting stuck in a bit too much. Someone could do with having a word.

Feel free to use report button or email Garlick or eybic if you have issues.

I don't know who eybic is, but would he or Garlick disagree with a mod?

I don't really care - as othere have said, it's just a forum. It just comes across as very clumsy.

The cringe is coming from INSIDE the thread. How very meta.

PH is not a democracy. This is Hay Markets ball, if you don't like the rules you can go play with your own

It needs one of those Inception memes, or a Pimp My Ride "yo dawg" meme... Shame, enjoyed it up til the last few pages.

It's dead, shame it was one of my favourites.

And lo, once more did the thread become a parody of itself.

To be honest as fun and true as a lot of the stuff on here is, it always was - basically people complaining about how bad everything else was (and therefore presumably how good they are).

I am genuinely embarrassed at PH about all this

This is one of the worst threads on PH, along with the spelling one. A bunch of self congratulatory wkers passing judgement on others from within very glass houses.

Spot on, I couldn't agree more.

I didn't say it was

Usually when that state, the thread would be deleted rather than purged however.

You do come across very Mary Whitehouse...

Please expand. Do you see specific parallels?

[northwest monkey]

Can't this thread get back to what it was?

Either that or it's time to lock it.

Before you lock it can you change the title to Most cringeworthy thread you will ever read?

Except mods aren't providing a service to you, they are providing a service to Haymarket/PH.

Do you thank traffic wardens?

Of course they are, they are providing a service to all the users of PH forums

The woman at the till/coffee machine are at least paid to provide their service to me, does that mean they are not worthy of thanks too?

Actually, yes, the last time I had interaction with a Traffic Warden I did thank him, he was helpful & I didn't get a ticket when I should have!

Do you thank them when you walk past and see them giving someone else a ticket?

[GTIR]

I've seen the cringe thread.

Yet another "Sir Chris of Harris should be on Top Gear he's so amazing" blah blah blah.

Good lord.

Why?
Why do grown men (assuming they are) bother to blow smoke up his arse. Is it because they hope he'll read their posts and invite them for a one-on-one drive in a P1 by the Italian lakes, wind in his hair, sun glistening of his perfect white teeth, flies nestling into his beard like a mother tucks up a child in bed....

Hmm. I'm off to post!

Sir Chris of Harris, I'm cooooming!
