Debate House Prices


In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non MoneySaving matters are no longer permitted. This includes wider debates about general house prices, the economy and politics. As a result, we have taken the decision to keep this board permanently closed, but it remains viewable for users who may find some useful information in it. Thank you for your understanding.

    There have been a few. Start something thoughtful and you'll find some good posters crawl out of the woodwork. Generali is usually very good in those threads, Prince of Pounds occasionally pops in as well, and I'm always up for a late night discussion on anything of that nature.

    Thanks Mr C!

    But to be honest, I just want to get on with my life. The only threads that really attact my curiousity these days are the more abstract or nature of money threads, and I don't see many of those here.

    Plus, the raw bear/bull aggression and the unremarked comment-cleansing turn me off. Which perhaps, begs the question of whether post-post moderation results in more or less irresponsible comment. Now that's a thread I might contribute to...

    Sadly, you haven't picked the best time to re-join the forum.

    The bull/bear exchanges have escalated out of control recently. The worst culprits are dealt with (hello geneer) but sockies are becoming a significant problem.

    Still, we do debate house prices, a rarity on CC these days. :)
    If I don't reply to your post,
    you're probably on my ignore list.

    A rarity on hpc these days as well... seems the bears don't like the constant reminder that the crash was over nearly 3 years ago.
