So you are admitting that you used to be Phylis then.....

Not sure there is anything to admit. The username was changed by the mods!

I used to post heaps of rubbish on ere, but most of my fans seem to have gorn , It is quite boring now. :(

Your posts are forum famous. There was even a word for describing being playfully mislead.

You have been "bizzarded"

It is no better or worse than it has been for the last 12 years.

 

Absolutely.  There have been several of these hand-wringing, navel-gazing, self-flagellating threads over the years, but I haven't noticed much difference.  May I point to an early 'This Forum is going to the dogs'  example?   https://www.canalworld.net/forums/index.php?/topic/9923-why-is-this-forum-becoming-a-joke/

Thanks for posting that link - reading through was like meeting old friends again. There's some much missed former forum regulars.

Indeed there are.

 

It says something (I'm not sure what precisely) that the thread, asking for better behaviour, had to be closed due to the opposite. Things don't change a lot in 13 years.

This thread has made me pause for thought.

In my time as a member here, only one poster has truly irritated me. Quite irrational really, because I am sure that in person, we had much in common.

But his posting style was combatative, his presence constant. An experten on All...

Last heard he moved to the other place and bought a caravan. 

??

He's no longer around in the other place either !

I was told some time ago that a member of the other place once described him as a caravan utilising nomadic traveller.

He will have fitted in well over there then ;)

Indeed, and there are quite a few from over on the dark side that are on this forum too, Any guesses which ones ? A few are very obvious.
