Holding grudges with people on PH

Hi there

They were at the Manchester concert. Wife and my two daughters. No physical damage but a horrible experience. We are extremely lucky and it’s dreadful that many others were not so.

I’m very proud of them all especially my wife for how they dealt with it.

It’s something I take real exception to some snarky little no mark trivialising as you can imagine.

I think so.

Mrs R and little Miss R were at the Taylor Swift concert at Wembley while that was still fresh in everyone’s minds. I needed regular text updates that night!

I hope the memories are becoming gradually less raw.

I don't think he's on here anymore, but I really, really, struggled to read "NotDave"'s posts. Principally because they seemed to be written in dialect.

He was actually a nice guy, his major problem was the absolute psychopath he is now married to (she posted a long rant on his login demanding the mods removed his profile from here)

Like most I don’t hold grudge, but there is one particular poster who I simply can’t discuss with anymore as I can’t stand there condescending single mindedness.

Oh well this place is filled with loads of great people as well so makes it worth being involved.

I have to admit i have to refrain from posting when a know it all ex cabbie posts his usually bks.

Yet he's never rude or nasty.

Well I like him, he can be very funny. I recall someone posting "black cab drivers can do one, I got an Uber across London at 1am for a fiver!"
To which he replied "high class hookers can do one, I got a blow job off a homeless teen for the price of a big mac."

Thanks Twig, I try not to be nasty, but when I vaguely recall some of the stuff I’ve churned out when floating on a sea of Absolut vodka, I’m surprised that I’m not more people’s Public Enemy # 1, and not for nothing Goose, but I’m not a know all, more likely a know a bit, but not as much as I give the impression that I do.

One particularly vocal poster on PCP threads decided to do some online sleuthing and drop my name and profession into conversation, he also changed his profile page to reference me and that’s still there to this day. I suppose I should flattered. I reckon he’s probably an ok bloke really.

A poster I shall probably permanently think is an absolute knob however and against whom I will admit I hold a grudge is Lemming Train. Reason ? He decided to tell me that I was making up the fact that my family had been involved in a serious terrorist incident. When shown to be wrong he failed to apologise.

Utter cock - grudge duly held, frankly would like to meet.

Probably feel the same angst in your shoes . Having seen some of his posts , plus his post count I've treated him as an antagonistic sort of troll and just ignore him . Strange behaviour from keyboard warriors indeed , life is too short for that sort of crap .

God, I remember that!!!

No it wasn't him, it was someone who was very vocal on the Finance forum but is suddenly now quite so may be under a ban. He has actually contacted journalists about me, it is that crazy!

I could only guess one person who looks to have been banned.

Pretty high post frequency?

ETA: As an aside, I value your contributions to the Finance forum - particularly how you’re not against teaching some of us the fundamentals!

I think you've got him, lots of words that rarely say anything helpful!

Cheers for the comment, I do try to get things across is plain English on there, so I appreciate it!

Oh dear.....

he once pissed me off, being the only poster to say I was being a busy body when everyone else backed me, when I posted about suspecting a neighbour had gone on holiday, leaving their dog home alone.

He's forgiven now mind! Talking of him, is he a member renamed? LT, care to confirm?

Had the neighbour gone on holiday and left the dog at home? If so, what happened?

Yes and no. They were away, (young) dog going nuts every evening. Not ideal but the neighbour the other side was taking him in during the day. Confirmed (in confidence) by his sister who also lives in our village.

That's not quite so bad then, although not very fair leaving it alone all night, especially when young. Some people just shouldn't have dogs if they are going to do things like that.

I'd not piss in their ear if their brains were on fire

Stolen, thanks. Unless you're going to hold a grudge about it?

That'll be 2 of us with grudges against us then - I stole it as well.

I first heard it used by Barry Mackenzie so it is probably Oz in origin or made up by Barry Humphries.

I have a PH stalker who has followed me into real life trying to cause me as much grief as possible.

It used to wind me up but when I realised how much time he was wasting focusing on everything I did or said I realised just how tragic and desperate he really was/is.

I just ignore it now!

I had / have a ‘cross forum’ stalker. The guy’s obsessed. It would be scarey / freaky, but he’s just an idiot, so not worth losing sleep over.

Dont go into the Politics section, the left wing snowflakes get so easily offended and will never speak to you again.

[Driver101]

I don't hold grudges, but there is a few people that I find irritating.

That might be as everyone knows what they are going to post before they do, or everyone knows they do what they do for the reaction.

I still don't get why obvious trolling threads end up huge threads. If they didn't get the reaction they wanted things would die down.

I have noticed that PH is a place where people are far less open. It's not the type of place to get too friendly and hand out personal information. I guess that's half the reason so many people have more than one account.

I do wonder how many female posters get msgs from blokes?

Both of them, probably.

I was thinking similar. I can only think of three, female PH'rs (Gretchen, BexVN and EmmaPuma) and another I recall reading is female (Monkey Legend, but could be wrong)

Could make a thread and ask them, could be amusing

If they don't "speak to you again" why would you care?

I suppose it depends who you know. I have met many people from Pistonheads at events, pub meets, BBQ's etc
