    that's not nice Graham even if you don't agree with Hamish.
    it's not the best move to highlight the thread on this on this board.

    most of those guys on there are idiots and love to slap each other on the back when they see negative stuff happening without discussin the reality of what they think they see happening. what's wrong with a having another opinion to counterbalance the so-called 'wisdom' of the other posters on there.

    there are also a fair few of those with that mind-set on here unfortunately.

    Erm, they say they miss hamish, hence why posting.

    Nice jab. Wrong footing.

    Do admire the way you say it's not nice to hamish, then proceed to call most on that site idiots. :D

    Read the comments before simply going for the holier than thou jab. They talk about the problems with restricting who can post. Exactly what you are condeming them as idiots for.

    not at all holier than though - that's good of you to think that.

    but the reality is that you've started a thread to try and undermine hamish on here just like the people on there have done.

    I posted the poll because although I don't agree with his deluded and unique fantasies I do miss him somewhat. He was like a dog with a bone when it came to bear baiting. :eek:

    Chucky.

    They are in general not undermining Hamish.

    You have tripped up here in your rush to get one over on me and look for the thanks. READ the posts and stop making a mountain out of a molehill.

    You have called them idiots for trying to get rid of opinions, though if you actually read instead of jumping in, you would see these "idiots who want to slap each other on the back" are saying there should be a balance, not silencing.

    actually no - that would be more like you and the number of posts.

    if i wanted to get my thanks count up - i'd become one of those negative bear types or try to be humorous about other posters to try to be popular... that's not me fortunately...

    that's fair enough - but starting a thread over here linking to that poll where "non-complimentary" comments are being made about him, isn't exactly nice.

    obviously Graham thinks it's ok - so it must be ok.

    Oh will you stop crying! Next time you call people all manner of names for not agreeing with you, as you do, I'll direct you to your "please be nice to people" breakdown.

    This is like watching a toddler try to run and fall over their feet, only to cry to mummy after.

    Read the bear vs bull thread, you were first to post any amount of ammo you could against anyone you didnt agree with and thank any type of personal abuse.
