    Not a lot of interest on here though, it's mainly you, talking to yourself.

    and his AEs.
    If only there was an ignore thread button to remove the threads from view.

    I hadn't read the original thread until I read this one. I just skimmed through it. It's very strange I agree. It's like eavesdropping on a conversation that I have no interest in. Surely the people who are affected will already know all of this anyway ? And for those who don't, how likely is it that they use this forum ? Baffling.

    He bumps until he can bump no more, then he starts a new thread....:eek:

    To be fair, if you did click on ignore the OP the whole thread would go!

    Threads don't disappear using the "Ignore" function. All that would happen is that the post content would be hidden.

    I agree that would account for around 97% of the posts on that thread (99% if the "supporters" are also ignored) :D

    I bet you can still view the thread, just not the content!

    I've more curiosity than your average cat, but if I click on that thread, all I see is a list of people on my ignore list!
  • I'm thinking of starting a "Praise for the Vent about the De Vita Platt Solicitors thread" thread.

    You can still click any post individually to read it, of course.. :)
  • The fact that so many people are commenting on this thread is the evidence they find it 'compelling'
    "Irritating" and "annoying" are the two words I would use to describe the thread.

    It has never been "compelling".

    I have honestly never fully read even one of your posts on that thread, but do carry on believing otherwise! :D
