    Yeah you are right i think most women are slightly neurotic, going to ignore all the snide posts from now on.

    Broders leave it there as been two lots of not good news for renters this week and the wrong side are getting it.

    It is funny how a thread about a member who was bullied and threatened by PM to show support.
    But a deep undercurrent against certain posters because of their position or views still exists.
    Is the bullying of people for their views, position religon etc. not exactly what NDG suffered.:confused:

    It`s pretty likely that I am older than most of the posters here. Thankfully I was brought up by a gentleman who instilled similar values into me. I think some of the remarks made at carolt are not only insulting but very personal. If you posters are male than you should feel ashamed of your selves. Pickled Pink is, so I believe to be female. Most of us already know the low level of her posts so I am not surprised by her.

    Oh and by the way, for those that seemed to be obsessed by it, I am not carolts " sock puppet " nor indeed anyone poster in disguise.

    I tend to agree with your post, however it seems what you are saying is that Carol can say what she likes and there should be not be a response to her comments because she is a woman. This is I disagree with because sometimes Carol's comments to some posters can be quite cutting - are you saying people shouldn't reply because she is a woman?

    You're being very one-sided with your comments, which is your perogative of course. And that is only my opinion which you may take or leave.

    As for me I find Carol very amusing and I tend to think there is a good level of banter between us.

    As for this being a Carolt thread it's actually an NDG thread... as for where she is I have to say just for Mewbie - "I don't know" :)

    Yeah you're right it must just be my perception of carolt.
    How many times has she said 'idiots' in the last couple of days?
    Is it only me that notices her utter contempt of certain members on here? It actually borders on bullying then she has the cheek to accuse these members of attacking her? Am I missing something here? This is a great forum and i have enjoyed it for years yet she is the one member i just do not get. I haven't actually got anyone on ignore and never have but i think i will put her on. There is definitely something not wired up correctly there and i don't mind that but to constantly belittle members who challenge her intimidating behaviour is beyond me.
    * Hands Up* I give up trying to explain. Mr B, I think your view is wrong......
    I just think you go on a wind up sometimes because you can be a bit naughty.:o
    Best to agree to disagree. ;)
    Let's go for the calm, quiet life option.

    I understand Carolt's anger and I understand that it can be vented in a way that others see as slightlly 'unbalanced'.
    Neas, Dopestar and !!!!!! (+ the rest) get attacked for their posts...but their viewpoints are driven from anger and frustration at events out of their control that have had a profound effect on their lives.

    I agree with your post except for this peice - i'm not selective quoting :)

    you've mentioned 3 posters who have "extreme" views - you haven't mentioned a other posters who also have opposed "extreme" views who also get it sometimes and maybe unfairly too.

    as for NDG - "I don't know" :cool:

    I tell you what it made me F'ing :mad: when Carol made out I was blaming NDG and saying it was like the "short skirt" excuse.

    I think if their is going to be new poster on this forum(some maybe like NDG) they need to know what happened and how some one used the information she had shared to really freak her out.:(

    That and taking the P!ss that my spelling is poor, she knows I am dyslexic. I had teachers not accepting it when I was at school and it is a shame to know some are still like it.
    At least any one who has it knows they can still achive your goals no matter how much the people knock your trying.:)

    Thanks for the post chucky. No I don`t think that disagreeing or indeed responding to carolts posts is wrong. What I object to is the personal comments that have been said about her.

    For example "carolt, try HRT and give us all a break for Christ sakes!" From DD. I find that offensive. Just one example. Over the months there have been other remarks aimed at carol and the posters firing jibes re pmt and other, I feel, sexist comments. Sorry if that strikes you as being old fashioned.
