When it becomes Personal - Posting

[David48]

Well David - got your answer yet?

Still waiting ...

On a more serious note .. to be honest ... it's actually good to have an outlet for this frustration.

We all need it sometimes.

Plus, also credit to the Mods ... they have a allowed a free flowing conversation.

Everyone is behaving themselves.

Some, a little more excited then others ... but it's all good ...

[David48]

Let's all talk about the weather.

It was before my time, but apparently the 'Is it Raining' thread was a Classic.

Maybe, someone from before 2008 can remember it and post the OP?

Classic ...

[StreetCowboy]

To be honest, Whambam, we've got Los Gringos in our group, and I don't see them as any less of a threat than the Nips and the Samoans. Mind, the day the Scots can't knock back 15 nips while going about their business is a sad day for us all, but the highway police begged to differ

Then there are the ones who get into Cliquish behavior with others - acting like grade schoolers at age 60... amazing.

Indeed and what a lovely little segue into this next quote

There are several posters though who think it's okay to post personal details of a poster, threaten to report them to immigration, spoof an IP address and set up an account in the name of the person, that to me is taking it way too far, it's only a bloody web forum.

Still crying over this are ya?

You and your silly little clique marauded through the forums with non-stop, relentless use of the nastiest, most disgusting insults and the coordination of "likes" in an effort to bully people off the forum. You might have felt like you were back at school pushing around the kids on their own with your greater numbers but some people use this forum for interacting with others on topics that interest them; what gives you the right to heckle them and derail every thread with your insults just because they happen to disagree with your point of view?

As I said before, I DID NOT send my immigration contacts to your lost little friend's employer. Believe me, if I had, I'd admit it without a moment's hesitation - but AM I SORRY that he got taught a lesson he so richly-deserved because he foolishly insulted people using a business username he uses elsewhere on the Internet?

Like hell I am.

Everybody hates a bully

I admit that when I see a mr toad or soi biker OP I always look forward to the thread to follow.

Likewise to, soibiker at times comes across as a pious git, but to be fair I quite enjoy his posts, they add some flavour and he's up for giving it back. He probably disagrees with a lot of my posts, but that don't matter. The food court thread was brilliant.

Ayjaydee, , respect as always, keep up the posts.

lol! I kinda suspect mr biker's pious shtick is a ruse to wind us up . the mask slips often slips and he seems to drop that act!

[SoiBiker]

We could scratch our balls, burp and break wind. That sounds like fun

I already was.

I tend to agree with you on this one CH, the frog guy must be losing the plot if he for some reason thinks you have a friend at Immigration or was it a 'contact', nevermind.

What have I missed during my absents from TVF? Are you able to provide me a link to a thread or news article or something? The good things always seem to happen when I'm in Jordan.

Is this another Keith Summers moment?

Secondly, I agree with ur other point too, everyone hates a bully. I've awarded you two 'likes' this week, what's happened? Did you change your colone?

[neverdie]

Woops, double post, sorry ladies, sorry davardo, sorry TVF gods!

Above is the puuuurfect example where I play the man. Sorry MrT. I'd also like to apologise to virtually every other TVF member I've played, it's just so many of you lead with the chin, how's an old brawler able to resist?

Group hug?

Can someone bring the ball back

Yet you couldn't manage to note that without speaking ?

Doh !

I must admit when I first heard of your story I thought that EXACT phrase.

[David48]

I have a feeling that some of the more vocal voices, more prolific posters on Thai Visa have not yet read this thread, yet commented.

Could someone go tap them on the shoulder please?

You know who they are.

Anyone with 20, 30, 40, 50,000+ posts must have a comment or 2 to make as they have been around the traps for a while.

I admit.....i am slow....but learning gradually.

[Rooo]

I have basically deleted a couple of pages of bickering, childish, trollish, abusive etc......... posts. I do not appreciate having to do that at 5 am in a thread that was meant to be with good intentions.

Now to the people concerned, please don't come back to me & say he started it, I didn't do anything scenario.

Some of the offenders are the ones talking about forum rules but are the first to break them.

This is Pub, we give some leeway, but if it goes out of hand forum rules are the same.

If you do not like a post, find it offensive, personal, trollish whatever use the REPORT function & not take the whole topic off course.

You want to keep bickering , get a room & do it via PM or whatever, members here deserve more respect.

Slow you are NOT !

We all learn constantly, some fail to recognise the fact, they are the ones that have forgotten the early lessons

Keep smiling sir

Thanks rooo ... sorry to have been the catalyst that started your week-end off on the wrong foot.

Kick back, have that well earned coffee.

[benalibina]

Play the man or the ball when reading an OP....the ball.

If i have nothing worthwhile to write i, initially, refrain from posting. On many occasions i have not pressed the reply button after writing a comment. This for various reasons.

Sometimes when reading comments from people it seems that some have a double personality.....intriguing !

Not your fault David. Just frustrating seeing a topic being derailed in such a manner, it doesn't deserve it.

Poor buggers, I've got dozens of them 55555

Plenty of people to argue with and I don't even need to head out or log on.

Please Roo,

David is to blame, Missfarmgirl told me herself.

Don't confuse the man !

[pgrahmm]

[Aussieroaming]

Well to be honest David I understand your post but I think referencing another member probably wasn't the smartest move. However I think everyone can see it wasn't personal about Costas or anyone else in particular..

Carry on carrying on

I think you've pretty much got your answer. The topic's irrelevant, like parish boundaries in trench warfare

Often-times I draft a reply then delete it because I don't want such a bilious thread in my Recent Posts window. It's rare that I've seen a post recover from rancerous squabbling to constructive and interesting discussion

Now neverdie.......a hit on the chin may be preferable to a group hug involving some people.

This concerns a particularly offensive and nasty member of a forum clique "run" by some very prolific posters including "the frog guy" - they know who they are.

During an exchange of posts with this member, I DID post vague details of the location and the industry of this member's employer but no names, addresses or contact details.

I DID put the wind up him a little by promising to send some BiB contacts to lay siege to his employer but I didn't intend to deliver on that "promise".

The next day - ALLEGEDLY - the immigration department paid his employer a visit asking to see "Alien's registration/documentation".

The understandably shaken member concerned then accused me of sending immigration around in a bid to have him arrested and deported.

I am then supposed to have faked an IP address and set up a TVF account using the guy's real name which, incidentally, is connected to his TVF username ALL OVER THE INTERNET.

I maintain that I did NOT send my contacts around to his employer but unfortunately, this member had insulted half the bloody forum with his bilious posts so any of them, having seen the info I provided, would have found it simple to figure out the name of the employer and tip off immigration. He obviously insulted the wrong person and one of them decided to piss on his cornflakes.

No idea where he is; he may very well have been bounced out of the country

Err CH no one saod it was you that spoofed an IP address.

Now I am really confused ... are you playing the Man or the Ball?

BTW ... for those interested ... the Sun has finally broken though in Samut Prakan ...

I always played the ball but it's irrelevant in this case since it seems the man isn't around any more
