Debate House Prices

    But should I feel I have to leave a board in the first place, just because I may have differing views or be in a different situation to other people on here?

    Think this is a valid point - There is a certain group who gang-up on posters who don't beleive house house will fall 50%.

    has seen us rise from being shrimps with little squiggly tails to the dominant species on planet earth.

    Surely, we're not? There are so many measures you could use to define what you mean by dominant. Certainly, on numbers, we're not dominant. I suppose that we use the internet more than other species ....
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    They also find it amazing that some Dyslexic people have poor spelling and grammar and can not even see their mistakes when prompted.:o
    Of course their other option would be to debate, but they would not want to do that would they.:rolleyes:

    lol, debating to 'the gang' means spending the day searching for meida reports for any piece of slightly bad news, wheather or not it has anything to do with house prices is a different matter. You can just smell the despration from these guys.

    Still, passes the hours at work I suppose.

    You too are definintely doing what you accuse others of - there's no "debate" here, just slagging off other posters in mutual agreement with each other.

    Pot, meet kettle.....
