Just a thought about being helpful

As we are a forum of different countries, I feel it would be polite and helpful to one another, our fellow posters, to post links to the original stories if the topic is an ongoing news item.

An example of which can be shown here: http://www.newsfixboard.com/t18619-ian-huntley-s-daughter-discovered-her-father-s-identity-after-being-told-to-research-the-murderer-for-a-school-project

An old news story, with a current update/topic, but a link at the bottom to the original story.

It's not a rule, more a polite request.

Many thanks.

Sounds fair!
Also perhaps people could take more care when writing titles?  - I see poor Rory Bremner is being branded an alleged stalker in one of the threads. He ain't. The photo is a clue.

If you see a thread title that you feel is not appropriate then please let me know Jules. Thank you for your input as always.

Hahahah sounded like a recorded message - you know what I mean!

Oh don't worry, the moment has passed.

My post was actually meant to be a joke, the title error was probaly due to someone having a senior moment.
I have never alerted a thread title on here, eds, I have better things to do.

Dressing up as Santa?

There's a thought!

Onesies - a truly weird invention. How do you pee without taking it all the way off? I couldn't be arsed. I've never had one.

Not the most practical things, that's for sure.

Never sure about Santa.
Really odd bloke.
Loves kids on his knee.
Only comes once a year and empties his sacks all night.
And only comes down a chimney.
Gotta feel kinda sorry for Mrs Claus.

I see Santa in a whole new light after watching the Alzheimers research UK  video.

And I suspect he sucks Werther's Originals - reason enough to be suspicious.

Haha. I thought that would flummox ya.
Well a man said I was up your ass. Surely if you've got me up there you cannot walk properly.

It was  the most ridiculous comment I have heard all year. I am NOT up anyone ass. Not in a million years. As if!!

You speak to me in a civil way and I reply back in a civil way, that's all. I have never flattered or praised you and at least I don't call you "Miss Eddie", which imo would be an extremely sycophantic.

Jules I never judge anyone on someone else's opinion. You're a great poster and I'm happy to have you here and post alongside you.
Posters often say someone has their "head up so-and-so's arse". I treat remarks like that as childish and pathetic.

And by the way? There's absolutely nothing wrong with praising someone - as humans, I don't think think we do this enough.

Correct.  But the point I'm making is that I've never even praised you or flattered you or anything. So where does the idiotic comment that I'm up your ass come from??

All I ever do is reply to you in a civil way cos you always speak to me in a civil way. It takes a huge sense of mischief and unnecessary stirring, to translate simple civility to "being up someones' ass".

Oh and one final thing, whilst I'm here. The same man also said that I go creeping in PM's to complain.  BOLLOCkS!!

I openly mentioned on this forum a while ago that IF  I ever felt harassed or targeted on here,  I would complain in a PM. Having  OPENLY  said that I would complain - there is no secrecy whatsoever. It's only creepy IF it's done secretly.

Well I'm glad I cleared that up. Maybe people should just stop making totally random provocative statements especially ridiculous statements that have zero logic.

Just ignore the rants. I've heard it all a million times before and I take no notice of those kind of posts, they're absolute fuckeries.

I have called Miss Eddie Miss Eddie once or twice....as a JOKE.
Not sure why that would be thought of a sycophantic though.

Well I haven't. Got it?
I don't go round calling people "miss ragga" or "miss eddie".

I couldn't care less whether people are called miss or not, it's just that I feel that surely a man who sycophantically calls people "miss" has no right saying other people are up someone's ass.

Yes I have 'Got it'.
And when I judge you to be the sort of honest upfront poster that could possibly influence my way of posting I may concur....till then

Perhaps you should have simply kept your beak out. You had no need to come running to his defence, but I knew you would.  I've even seen a man asking you if you thought you were his mother.

You watch him saying all manner of atrocious things without ever correcting him, yet as soon as people react to him, you're in like a dart.  

And all the things you like to accuse people of, look closer to home cos your own mates are a million times worse.

I was not running to defend anyone? You said it was sycophantic to call Eddie "Miss Eddie"...I said I have in the past as a joke.
I had no idea who you were referring too(obviously I do now) because you sometimes talk in bloody riddles.

Sad that you have brought your long droning dislike about a poster onto this forum, hiding your true identity.
You joined here claiming you were new to all the posters...even singling me out in a couple of posts as someone you didn't know, odd because we have posted together for years previously.

I don't like sneaks, so dont dare look down your nose at me when you have acted in such an underhand way.

Syl wrote:

You really need to explain why anyone would give a FF what you like, or don't like. Cos I'm effed if I know.
None of what I do is remotely your business.
I have every right to join here under whatever damn name I like. Most people join under a different name of their choice. Nothing to do with you.
And  I said I knew one or two people  here, when I joined.  I did not say I knew no one. Not that it's any of you r damn business.


My post was purely a REACTION to what the guy said.  If he hadn't made the utterly ridiculous statement that  I was creeping up eddie's ass I would not have said anything back to him. You had no need to get involved.

You cannot have it both ways. If you don't want anyone saying anything negative to your right wing sweetheart, keep him under control. Simple.  Correct him when he says indefensible things, instead of joining in the tag teaming like a silly little schoolgirl.

Thanks for the green whoever gave it /\.

I dont want to be drawn into someones ongoing battle with another poster, especially when it started elsewhere and I distanced myself from it a long time ago.

My initial post here was because I have used the term that she said was "sycophantic"...I was answering on behalf of myself no one else....hope that's clear.

Read my post above...and now do one.

I gave you the green because I felt you deserved it. You only came to defend yourself.

Having said that ladies, it really isn't worth the headache involved, to fall out over this.

As far as I'm concerned it's over and done with.

I never go near him, I never speak to him on here, except on very rare occasions when I want to point out the extreme irony of some of his posts.

If it had been you who had been told you were up someones's ass you'd have had plenty to say so I've no idea why you expect not to defend myself.  What's wrong with you?
Let him fight his own battles you are not his mother.
You're the one who came running to interfere, YOU do one.

A likely story! I have never heard you call anyone "Miss" and I would not care if you did. Why would I? None of this had anything to do with you. You were just looking for a way to stick your beak in.

A term of endearment of course. Durr.
Mums call their babies that when they have a nappy explosion and stink out the room.
Well I sometimes called my little one that. He was worst during the weaning stage.

A term of endearment, good description, so much more acceptable than rudeness I'm sure you will agree.
