    It kind of tickles me that they have all those angry threads about the sheeple whilst the mods are quietly banning any poster who doesn't toe the party line.

    Indeed. They rant on about individuality, but anyone who doesn't think the same way as them gets banned.

    Has it always been like that. I seem to remember visiting the site years ago and they had this thing called bulls vs bears going on. Did they allow debate or was it for show.

    Ha ha ha. I have to agree with you.
    Angry threads are indeed quite ticklesome.

    I wish it would close it's doors.

    This forum has been completely taken over by HPC drivel. 5 minute updates constantly on what someone just said, or didn't say, or might have said, or might have meant or didn't say, but would have said.

    Getting rather tedious now.

    Well like you can put a person on ignore why don't you put this thread on ignore (always accepting that some people will post about HPC on other threads where they think it relevant).

    Just to add that with Halifax, Nationwide and Land Registry coming out each month since the HPC site was commissioned they have now seen in excess of 250 monthly reports. The number of positives massively outnumber the number of negatives. :T

    250 reports .... and they STILL don't get it? Thick or WHAT!?

    Who are the mods that are banning everyone - I guess they are so angry and sad that they have thrown away good money on rent and they are demented?

    What's your HPC username Graham? First time I've asked but I know many many others have asked before. Keep protecting the cult and denying yourself the truth. After all you are worth it. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I really don't see why some people are so obsessed with HPC, I think prices should drop and have never been near the thing.

    On other news I may be buying a house sooner than expected.

    More than likely just the same reason why others do not see why someone, aproachong their 30's and never lived alone independently, still chooses to live under their mothers rules and in her purse. How shameful.

    What rules does my mother make me live by?

    How much money is my mum giving me each week/month?

    Seriously, since you know my life better than me answer the above questions.

    As it is many on here both bull and bear can see exactly why I am doing what I am doing and it makes sense.

    Anyway I just said I may be becoming a 'real man' sooner surely you should be happy for me? :beer:
