It once was the case that most of the posters on this website were helpful, sympathetic and knowledgeable about whatever advice it was you wanted. Of late years that is no longer the case, and I no longer wish to be associated in any way with this pit of sexism, racism, hatred and general fkwittery.

Funny isn't it, the one Muslim idiot who seemed to suggest that beating his wife was a good thing was rightly banned, but the tens or hundreds of sycophants who produce such verbiage as "snakes with tits" and "certain residents in Bradford don't bother with car insurance", and who propagate a myriad unhelpful stereotypes, remain free to post. That this behaviour is tolerated by the site admins is in my opinion indicative of Haymarket's tacit approval of such tripe.

Please either delete my account or scramble my password so I can no longer post here.

My thanks to all those who've either made sense or been sensible.

Not sure why anyone would feel the need to announce their departure - if you don't like & certainly if you feel that aggrieved/offended, you just stop looking/posting/whatever else.
As for some of the specific points, I'd say things are still reasonably calm & balanced here compared with elsewhere, on a blokey website there's probably a good number who've been shafted by the fairer sex (even if sometimes that's the system and others just general bitterness), so there's always going to be negative feeling. As for Bratfurt, I'll suggest no more than it is arguably the most deprived city in England.


Racism? Smallish bits but absolutely nothing compared with the outside world, UK and certainly wider than that.


Help & advice - Still happens & will continue to happen.

It's not difficult to spot which threads are going to be controversial, just avoid them. There's too much useful information and discussion on here to turn your back on it!

The problem is that you didn't like some of the comments about your X6 incident, isn't it? They were none of the things you describe, but they just didnt agree with your point of view.

If you don't want to post, don't post. We're not going to delete your account though.
