... when this particular place used to be nice?

It was known throughout the PH forum as a thread with plenty of helpful information, nice people, good manners and friendly banter.

A recent influx seems to have really sent all that to cock. And I'll admit I have been no saint in my postings since then frown

Where did it all go wrong? confused

Maybe we need to ignore it all, that way the threads will drop off the front page and hope the lunatics leave the asylum wavey

Too many people taking comments to heart. Then upping the insults. Also, people posting up for opinions then not liking it when most members don't respond in the affirmative.

The knack is knowing when to let it drop, especially the political and I like this and don't like that stuff.
Yeti, from my newbie perspective, your contributions are well written, often informative, interesting and certainly valued by me,,keep it up and thanks. clap

Always a minority rather than a majority who act like idiots and like to wind other people up-obviously got nothing better to do which shows how pathetic they are. They probably do it in all walks of life! If you don't want an opinion then don't post on the forum.

So you lose an hour's sleep...and you wake up a big melancholic tart !!!! hehe

The forum is brilliant - as was noted by a casual poster a matter of days ago.

There has always been a modicum of friction from time to time - remember Mr Jellison?.....remember Terminator arranging to meet up with George and punch his lights out?.....remember JohnG1 leaving us after a tete-a-tete with another member?.....remember....

A quick glance on AMOC tells you that you do NOT want to follow their example nono

What you are witnessing is a cluster....no more....no less yes

Yeti for what it's worth for the last six months I have enjoyed following the various owners and there car adventures. When I get my car this is the one place I will go to get informed advice. It is a bit like being a member of a golf club the majority are ok but it only takes a few idiots to spoil the whole experience.
I for one am looking forward to putting faces to the names at Hever in the summer

Succinct and probably accurate. He's a blue menace.

We should put him in a wicker basket at Hever and set fire to him. Burn the witch, only then can the forum be returned to normality yes

Hi
I must say that compared to many forums I partake in this one is by far one of the most fun. As I said in my thread of the other day the fact that people took the time to help me both by posts and emails means a lot. So I for one think this is a great place

Best regards

Josh

I remember. Not many people have been here since the original early days of PH like you or me, Mr. Yeti. I've noticed these things come and go in waves. In other words, this too shall pass.
