Moving this board.

I have to say if this thread is any evidence of the rest of the forum. I think deleting it rather than moving it is the right option.

There's no point in having something this vitriolic and I certainly dont want it in the core MoneySaving boards.

Absolutely.

I think any normal person reading these boards can pretty quickly work out which posters are out purely to disrupt discussion, and who want to further discussion.

If approriate action was taken against the very tiny but very active minority, we could return to pleasant discussion.

Tempers have always been high where house prices are concerned - but all this nonsense over multiple identities and personal attacks is very recent.

Re the main subject of discussion, I think the board serves the users better where it is, which should be the primary concern when deciding where to locate it.

Blimey, 18 pages in half a day!

I guess that if you want a reaction from children the most effective way is threaten to take the toys out of the pram.

Or, in this case, just move them to the other side of the pram.

Erm, yeah.

17 pages in 9 hours? Is this a record? It does show that people are probably bored with debating the things on the title of the forum. Time to move on?

No the threads regarding the collapse of the Icelandic banks hold that record

It's no big deal. The survival thread beats this one hands down.

I'll tell you something else. That thread was full of nice people having fun. How times change.

Anyway you and me are getting a bit cliquey, so you'll have to thankyou grub elsewhere matey.

Does that damn thread about Felixstowe fe*cking docks hold the record for hanging around the front page the longest?

I swear someone posted up the original "Is Felixstowe Docks closing?" question back in 1982 and then someone has posted on it each day since then.

I'm dicussing thread records on an internet forum. I need help.

I think the primary concern to Martin Lewis is the impact it might have on his reputation, and perhaps by default his future earnings

spot on...

Mr_Mumble

There are plenty of wacky beliefs and nonsense in this forum, it definitely should join the pub punters down below .

Seriously, I'd hate to be taking advice from anything said on this board. While there are thoughtful and interesting posts many are slightly off the wall, non-mainstream, perfect Money Saving Arms banter.

Looking at the poll results thus far, the majority prefer the board to stay where it is.

60% vote to stay, and 20% vote to go.

Therefore, of the people who are interested enough to vote one way or another, 75% votes to stay.

Edit: Ah. Votes have moved on... nvm.
