    Censorship comes to the comp boards ........
    Not everyone wants to read Pollyanna posts ......and sometimes a good moan is not only theraputic but changes luck (It was called "The Power of the Moan" on some boards....where someone posts they've not won for months.......and then wins :)
    I take the attitude that I can read the posts I want to and skip the ones I don't so there is room for all opinions and attitudes. Vive la difference and all that !!

    Duchy, you should perhaps take your own advice. The only censorshipping post here is yours. As far as I can see, this thread is putting an alternative view across, not trying to ban anything. Yours is the only one stating that what has been written shouldn’t have been. And if you don’t like our ‘Pollyanna’ posts, then do what you suggest we do and don’t read ‘em.

    Something sweet to help you look elsewhere perhaps:

    This is the first thread in a while on here, (apart from some of the IWIWIW posts) that has made me seriously smile.

    Love it, and no I do not want to see your Aunty Face.

    Lovin the hugs and the optimism, so a virtual hug back at you all, whether you want it or not xx

    Love you all grumps and 'pollyannas' alike.

    Blimey Duchy :o I was certainly not trying to censor anyone! I agree a good moan is very therapeutic for all sorts of reasons.


    To be honest I work up in a filthy mood and starting this post cheered me up and I hoped it would raise a smile or two. That's my self therapy. As you say "vive la difference and all that".


    Be lucky,
    Rae.

    I won't give you a hug I'll give you something a thousand times better - a cwtch! We Welsh can cwtch much better than any English can hug, and we love cwtching :kiss:

    Please take no notice of this and continue to whinge , in fact do it all the more now this has been posted as I enjoy reading people moaning about not winning etc etc,it tells me I am not the only grumpy git that feels like introducing his computer to his window at times.

    Ahh Sid, we all feel like it at times. But when it's the same people stating they haven't won anything for ages yet posted in IWIWIW last week, it gets a little annoying! :o
