This forum is just full of the same people spouting the same opinions over and over...
I usually come back every couple days to see if i can gleem anything interesting and in all honesty... you can't. This sub-forum is now just a big bear vs bull fight where the words bias, fiction and opinion pop into my mind...
Its not based on analysis at all, its just vested interest nonsense. I remember when the discussions were more interesting to read.. but now everything turns to personal attacks and 'you only saying this because you regret your decision' type nonsense.
Seriously this entire sub-forum is of no use.
So.. rightly so this post is happy here (its my opinion and helps nobody.. like rest of forum)

I agree 90% of the time it is rubbish/pointless/hostile & feather ruffling.
5% of it I learn something on.
& 5% is just a joke & not to be taken seriously...Not Again0 -
Agreed.
This forum has turned into HPC2.co.uk.
HPC.co.uk used to be an informed and interesting place to lurk. Now (like here) it's just a slagging match with little or no debate.
Also the spellung and gragmar nazis has turned up here! aghagha0 -
What annoys me is that so 95% of the content is generated by the same 'public enemies'... and its complete and utter horse manure.
Its drives me potty, first that people can be so bored with their lives to imagine,research,delude themselves and pass something off as reasonable 'evidence' when it is entirely one-sided and heavily biased towards their own view. Its just all like this.. on both sides....
and then it gets into a personal attack because... those silly posters have nothing else left to 'discuss'... neither will accept the others biased standpoint so it goes down to a flame war.
How is someone wanting to actually come on here and debate... actually going to do it amongst all the Bull c rap thats flying around?

I agree...but haven't you said just the same before, OP? I'm sure I remember something similar, which is so funny it in itself has made me giggle.0

so you're saying that you preferred this forum when you could laugh and mock peoples misfortunes if they were in negative equity, with the hope of repossessions increasing so it would lower house prices for you so you could boast about saving £££ when house prices were falling...
it didn't really work out the way you hoped - did it...
here's an example of one of your posts

Whats more sad?
The fact you dug that out? or the fact you think i care.
It doesn't change the fact this forum is just moaning... in fact your post exemplifies the behaviour on this forum doesn't it?
Straight for the personal attacks... groovy man groovy...
As for 'dont let the door hit you'... are you serious? this is an internet forum...0 -
I think chucky was just trying to prove your point, OP.0

I agree dude,
It's ever since around spring last year this forum went down hill. Strange.0 -
I agree. Ever since I joined this forum has got worse and worse. Flaming, stupidity, attacks on fellow posters. I just can't stop myself.0
