    oooh, how do u know who cpu is talking about?

    am i missing something?

    has there been a slanging match that everyone knows about? except ickle me?

    :confused:

    I don't but if any post is rude ,people are right to be annoyed ...............it's not fair or necessary and after reading several remarks by several posters over my time here that are downright rude,I can imagine how a rude one would be made all the more so by the exessive use of exclamation marks:D

    and if you make sense of that let me know ........cause I'm not sure I can;)

    I do think I'm in the minority though, maybe I need to lighten up as it seems that this kind of thing doesn't bother most people around here.
    No cpu you do not need to lighten up, you have every right to feel the way you do in relation to that particular poster. Sometimes people need reminding that whatever status they believe they are...........................they can still be extremely rude and unpleasant, and that their tirade of nastiness will not be tolerated by everyone!

    Just for the record, I use many !!!! in my posts as 95% of the time I am being jovial and it's emphasising my joke!!!!! ;)
