the lady doth protest too much me thinks
I however protest as I am not going to let someone, do to me, what you are currently doing.
I could even on IS, sit at home with the governments new proposals, till my child is 7. Yet I am looking to move forward as soon as possible. I do not like to be labeled and although you have not directly labeled me, you sure have hinted!
I find your hints/comments/accusations or whatever you wish to label them, offensive.
If you want to 'educate' anyone on benefits, then why not go over to the benefits forum where I am sure you are bound to find someone who is genuinely work shy, fraudulent, milking the system, creating smokescreens on earnings or possibly all of these as I am sure your efforts will be appreciated far more over there.0 -
lOMG! Doesn't this lady stand a chance with the 3 muskateers? Or Thomas & John Hopkins?
Please go and and bully and pick on someone else... Thank you ... End of discussion.. Inquisitions don't mean a thing here Ok?
Goodbye!
:eek: :rotfl: :money:
That5's what this is all about! Not Bullies getting of on a power thrill!
In what way am I bullying?
Surely the fact that I do not agree with the OP does not in itself imply I am a bully.
It could be argued that your "... Thank you ... End of discussion.." is more akin to bullying than any of my posts are by your attempt to stiffle the debate, or perhaps otherwise take it off topic.
The OP posed a question on a publicly available forum? I have responded to the question and issues raised. I see no issue with that.
I'm not sure your approach brings much positive to this debate."Now to trolling as a concept. .... Personally, I've always found it a little sad that people choose to spend such a large proportion of their lives in this way but they do, and we have to deal with it." - MSE Forum Manager 6th July 20100 -

No YOU have raised the 'issues' here! And I have not found one thing you have said helpful, simply confrontational. I did not want, nor do now any form of debate. I certainly do not expect everyone on here to agree with everything I say, but I am finding your comments very unconstructive.
If you feel that you can add any POSITIVE suggestions in answer to my ORIGINAL questions, then please share. If however you can only carry on being confrontational and NEGATIVE and raising the same points in a constant cross examination then I'd rather not have any further input from you.0 -

I am sorry that find my comments offensive. I certainly did not intend to cause any offence and I have already advised you how to report any offensive posts made.
If it is agreed any posts are deemed offensive, I am sure abuse control will remove them. In the meantime, if you are finding my posts offensive, perhaps it is best if we do actually end this debate here?"Now to trolling as a concept. ....

Yes I am quite aware that you advised me that I can report a post and how to do it...I did reply that I knew that this was availible and that I knew how to use it. Thank you for your helpful information for the second time.
I'd rather abuse control did not remove your posts. Whilst I find a few of your comments teetering on the offensive side, I think they should be left for all to see!
I already asked that if you can not be POSITIVE, that perhaps you could refrain from posting on this thread as I am not finding any of your 'education' helpful in any manner. So only you know whether you can manage to do that or if you need to, as you suggest, end YOUR debate here.0 -
what has any of this gotta do with ebay!0

Although I still have concerns that the OP cannot do this for her brother without incurring real problems for herself I feel that the thread should actually be closed now with a cut and paste of Martin's statement.
