The comment section is priceless.
Article posted two days ago.....
Not a single comment until this morning, when all of a sudden it gets flooded with negative comments.
I wonder why.....

You should really set up your own group of like minded individuals, then you could average out the comments.
Trouble is, between you, sibly, ghouls, ghouls, ghouls and ghouls, you won't have much weight, and I doubt you would find it as easy as HPC to gather like minded people of your persuasion.
The one thing it doesn't tell you on that article, is who actually wrote it. Unfortunately another locality paper from the same people has the same habit, when writing about the lovely specific restaurants in the area. If they actually stated who wrote the article, we'd see they are part of the restaurants they promote in their "article".
Theres also an ongoing row over some road access, pretty big, but very localised news. Of course, the name is removed then aswell, when someone who "cares for the community" writes an article. Yet it's clear its from the person who wants the road...and I know it is, as I'm a vested interested in it!0 -
Hamish.

We have made it. :beer:

On the contrary, I suspect Hamish's weight is fairly substantial, given his rich and luxurious diet.30 Year Challenge : To be 30 years older. Equity : Don't know, don't care much. Savings : That's asking for ridicule.0 -

I see doccyboy is as paranoid as ever.....
Wanting to "protect" the poor vulnerable people on MSE from hearing the truth about housing. Yet he seems desperate to defend the silverbugs ban. :rotfl:
Or in other words, trying desperately to con a few more victims into believing the failed and discredited hpc ideology.
Fact is, the membership on MSE dwarfs the miniscule membership of hpc, and he can't ban dissenting voices over here.
We'd clearly won the argument when they had to resort to banning dissenting opinions rather than debating them. And the proof is in the housing market being higher today than it was when we were all banned, and now starting to rise further. We were right. Their crash failed them. They should really have the good grace to admit defeat.
Simple as that.
Oh, and HI DOCCYBOY, thanks for all the links to MSE. :T
Keep on promoting us, there's a good fellow.;)“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

I don't think a few carrot crunchers reading a website story in Plymouth is going to change the world. Even if 3 people joined HPC on the back of it then it would be worth the laugh I've had.
Thier comments are so funny and I got the Sibley message across to them. :rotfl:
I don't believe anyone is priced out and FTB's ought to be aiming for FT buys not big houses.
Yes, I do read HPC. It makes me laugh. I'm only sorry they banned all the bulls before we could say I told you so. Still, no problem. You only need to click the link to see they still hear us loud and clear.We love Sarah O Grady0 -
