Jeeze, guys, give the poor moderators a break. Only report a thread once, not dozens of times, and have a little bit of common sence. At this rate, we're not going to have any smilies left. And why all the sockpupets reporting abuse anyway, it's not like the original poster making these abuse reports were banned, is it?
i doubt anyone reported them - it was just a bit of humour insertion me old china0 -
earth calling tomterm, earth calling tomterm.... :j

Didn't you get the memo? Humour was banned months ago. That's why they got rid of Mewbie.“The ideas of debtor and creditor as to what constitutes a good time never coincide.”

There are some great contributors (we all know who they are) but often their posts are lost in the storm of nonsensical postings. Indeed, some have already left, possibly due to this fact, and the remainder seem to be posting less frequently.
It's a shame.
So how is a move to discussion time going to illuminate their postings (where has that confused smiley gone?).'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

... and rising !!
:rotfl:
Really?
As of course that is fact, nollag, we'd like to see the proof.
Links incl sold prices.
As obviously you only know they've gone up that much if they've sold.
So go on then - there's absolutely no way a poster with such integrity as yourself would make this lot up.0 -
....Of course if they'd used a dear little chap, like this one, they'd have had no need to ban it:
"Yer honour, it was the aggressive confused smiley what made me do it!"0 -
How was that smiley deemed aggressive? I find this one :money:much more intimidating
I take the OP point as basically true mostly because the situation is confused, no one absolute will describe it.
The housing market resembles the old supermarket trick of reducing packet sizes along with prices. Theres no denying its cheaper but its also more expensive to buy.0
