Debate House Prices

We are being invaded.........

One of the most popular sayings on this board comes from members of HPC. Everytime HPC is mentioned in a post, Gloomy or some other happy soul tells us we are so gutted not to be a member of there and how we should get over them. Well, I had my first look over there for over a month today.

What did I see?

At least 7 direct links to threads on here. They are encouraging their members to attack homeowners on here.

It's opened my eyes I can tell you. Gloomy is like some disenchanted left wing student stuck in bedsit land.

Is there a way we can prevent them ruining our board?

Can't the Mods ban the obvious trolls?
We love Sarah O Grady

    They were doing that five years ago, the last time I looked at that forum.

    This board exists to stop the bickering happening on the main house buying board.
    Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.
  • yes it would appear that a certain website and it members have had enough of backslaping themselves.
    What I do find amusing is the lack of evidence and counter arguements they have to any discussion that goes against their opinion.

    I guess that is why they stick to that website where they will find solace

    There is something we can do: ignore them and anyone who mentions HPC.

    I would be quite happy for the mods to ban those who continually bring their obsession with that website to this forum.

    But, they don't, so welcome to my ignore list.

  • Including this thread it mentions hpc and i must admit the whole thing just bores me
