You don't want to know what he done on an Aardvark
Interesting to see Steve's serious thread gradually turn into trivial nonsense via some unfortunate spats. Long live FM!
What do you expect if the people it was aimed at don't seem to be taking it seriously .........
One isn't going to lose any sleep, and the other one is, in a tongue in cheek sort of way .......
And if you moderate to restore the balance, you get castigated for it.The way this thread has developed is an example of why too many potential contributors just switch off and don't bother (at least that's what they tell me). Why does it have to develop in this way. If people want this humour why not create a separate thread? Why hijack a serious "comment thread"?
I'll take it seriously when there's a serious comment to be made. If you read Steve's opening post and care to spend the time goiung back through EVERY post since January (when Graham retired), you will find that the same comments have been made at least a dozen times. Usually by the same group of people including Steve on a couple of occasions.What do you expect if the people it was aimed at don't seem to be taking it seriously .........

If people only tried themselves to make things better then it might not appear as bad to them as they make out.
They're glass may be half empty, mines half full - well more than that if I admit. This site is buzzing with visitors, we need to bring them in, welcome them and stop posting absolute drivel like the above! As Neil said "If people want this humour why not create a separate thread?"
I concur!
They probably haven't forgotten THE e-mail that you sent Steve .... I think that may be half the problem ....
I have. What's in the past is in the past. Let's get over it and get on with it.
