I don't have any issues. You both act the same towards everyone, That's issues. i get along with everyone else besides you two and two others, both members who also have problems with others. Go back and look at the start of the conversations here. You weren't acting weird then, until he came into the topic. Coincidence? I'm thinking something darker. If you knew everything I've said here about my life was true would you act the same way anyway?

You have issues @fredwiggy . Even your 'supporters' here know that. Ask them.

That's not normal, is it @fredwiggy ? Be honest with yourself...

Has it helped you in life? Do you think that is how you have ended up with someone relatively normal this time?

This is an escape route for those who are antisocial in person. They feel safe here so can exaggerate all they want, and no one will know. They'll put down people they never would in person. Comes from a damaged home life, where abuse and or neglect, or spoiling took place, and the hate generated from that is put on others.

But you are the one ranting with hate and abuse. It's one thing having an opinion, but you appear angry, abusive and out of control at times.

You use what you pick up from books as a way to cope with your own feelings.

You took the bait of those women due to flaws in your own character. If you stand still, you can more easily see when someone is moving. That's why you cannot spot the crazies and the narcissists, marry them, have children with them. Because you too are moving.

Other people can spot them from a mile off and not take the bait.

They aren't the problem, you are. You bit off more than you could chew. Not everyone can control a wild horse.

And then it restarts under new nicks. Both of them are running multiple nicks at the moment, but their Achilles’ heel is that they cannot reinvent themselves. Same style, same tricks, same pattern.

Mate, I reckon none of that’s the real issue. If the people running the place genuinely wanted to stamp out the toxicity, they could do it in a snap.

You’re saying the same abusers would just pop back up under new identities. Fair enough, but if they’re as easy to spot as you reckon they are, then surely the people keeping an eye on things would clock them again soon enough. They might slip through the net once or twice, but if they keep getting banned every time they show their faces, sooner or later they’ll get fed up, bugger off, and find somewhere else to cause grief. Once that happens, the problem pretty much sorts itself out.

The most obvious answer is that they create activity.

I’ve seen plenty of people post saying they’ll put up with any old tat because it’s all about needing the traffic. Personally, I don’t buy that.

I can’t see how all the toxicity does anyone any favours, even if a site’s trying to attract more visitors. I’d have thought the travel, visa, and Thailand information sections bring in more than enough people on their own, so I don’t reckon any of this nonsense is needed.

You do see warnings being handed out from time to time, which suggests the issue’s being taken seriously. The trouble is, from the outside, it can sometimes look as though the abuse carries on regardless, and the outcome people expect after those warnings doesn’t always seem to happen. To me, that feels like the weak link, because if people thought there were consistent consequences every time, I’d imagine the usual suspects would soon pack it in.

Like I said, it’s only really a small problem caused by a couple of people spoiling it for everyone else. It feels like it’d only take a couple of clicks to put an end to it, then everyone would all be living happily ever after.

If it does, it's because it's rule breaking, rather than someone picking on you. You are such a victim. You were happy enough when you were abusing the system to your own ends.

If you are too sensitive for the Community Pub, you can always head to one of the other sections. You'll be better protected there.

Now, how much of a salary do you pay?

Here we are again, and it is a simple question: who is the most toxic in this thread?

You cannot hide from this one, can you?

ChatGPT again? 😊

What's the matter? Have you made even one on-topic post on this thread? You like to get your little digs in, but then cry for your mummy when you get a little touch back.

Oh dear, I'm toxic, to mummy's boys. 😊 You are crying because I'm more effective than you 😊

Perhaps real men can take a bit of banter and give as good as they get. Mummy's boys try to gather together a little gang for emotional support, if their mummies aren't there to rescue them.

Lay off the ChatGPT and speak with your own voice.

For you...why not? 😊

It means that if he thought that he was getting the better of me, he'd be shouting it from the rooftops and gloating. But perhaps because he's a big, fat loser who pumps himself in an attempt to protect his seemingly inadequate character, he backs out of every frank discussion.

So now there is no respect shown to each other. When he learns to be respectful, our dialogue will perhaps become respectful of each other. Unlikely though, as he has shown himself to be of low integrity.

How low are you willing to go, Isme? That is the question. It is all about how low you are willing to go, and what you personally gain from going this low.

Not one normal decent man is willing to get that dirty. Some of us still have some decency left.

Why are you on this thread if you are not willing to discuss how much you pay?

Do you have any decency left? Let's see if you have any honesty, decency and integrity left. Explain to everyone why you posted the picture of the roses and cherries.

So you ran away rather than admitting to the truth of why you posted that photograph.

That is a spineless coward. You can run but you cannot hide. Maybe not everyone understands what is going on here. But you and I know. To me, you are just of a low standard and that is the truth. A hypocrite of the highest order. Pretending that you are standing above, but really down below, sneaking around.

More deflection from the sneaky creepy dude. You aren't protecting anyone as I already know the truth. You aren't man enough to tell the truth. Always changing the subject, deflecting or playing the victim.
