    I love this forum. I have never posted without some sort of snooty opinionated response or remark that almost feels like there offended. Most of the time needlessly so. A simple no this doesn't breach guidelines and no they do not have to consider compo for you spending hours dealing with it and worrying.

    Judging by the level of posts these people are at. They seriously should consider getting a life.

    Thanks to those who are direct and understanding.

    To the rest. Cheer up guys. There is a big world our there. Explore it.

    I accept the content. Not the condescending tone.

    Also...been a member 10 years....Not that new.

    Crawl back under your rock mate. Get a life.


    Intended tone can easily get lost in a forum post when the content is ambiguous ..


    Not much ambiguous about your last comment though - how rude

    I really hope you were not referring to me, as my post was anything but "snooty" or "opinionated" ?

    Lets keep it on topic, and friendly please.

    I will add, as they have contacted you again, you now have grounds for a written complaint, and a trip to the FOS website if needed.
