A lot of the posts on this thread are indicative of some of the less attractive traits on PH: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...
Indeed the instant dislike of someone new who dares to oppose the majority view on here, backed up by the usual suspects.It seems a bit odd to join PHs and just post about the EU doesn't it? We normally get this when approaching an election and people sign up just to post about how great their leader is.

The thing that annoys me the most on here and I really don't know why because I know it shouldn't is when a poster, for example let's say someone called Dave finishes each and every post he writes with 'Dave'.
It is a little informal. 'David' would be more appropriate prior to formal introductions. I don't mind the adding of a name to be honest, I think it is very easy to misinterpret the manner in which someone types and I suspect the adding of a name makes a post less impersonal and possibly less likely to have its tone misconstrued?

Or finish every post, no matter how harsh, with a smily, eg:

But where is the line though? I tend to resort to smilies as I know I have a very blunt turn of phrase and a dry wit. I've learnt to use smilies on PH so as to try an minimise the offence caused to the myriad pre-ops that float around horrifically distressed, in between retail therapy bouts, at some of the very unfluffybunny turns of phrases used. Oh look, they've found Maddie's headless corpse in the boot of Ant and Dec's car.
I know we've already had people mentioning people who belittle other cars by saying things like "stroen" or "Poogeot", but I saw another one recently: "Aldi" (Audi).
Only one poster uses this phrase as far as I can see. He also uses the term "junior supercars" to describe some of his own fleet.
Neither are really annoying, just tragic
