I'm sure that must happen on here occasionally but you really do need to go to the eBay boards to see the best examples of this - after not hearing the answer they expected/were hoping for, a second poster will then miraculously appear to defend the honesty/integrity/plausibility of the first poster & quite often, when they get angry or ranty enough, they will forget who they're supposed to be logged in as & start replying under the wrong ID, that's when the real hilarity starts!:grin:

That used to happen a lot on Digital Spy.

Trust me, they are.
I suppose it does no harm really, and if it makes them feel better and all that, but the dishonesty says quite a lot.

Crikey! First time I've ever been called a fascist. Bizarre.

I post almost every day.

I was offended.

Julius hasn't left.

I didn't do any name-calling.

Eventually they start TYPING IN CAPITALS & claiming that they personally know a policeman/lawyer/high court judge/MP who will make all the other posters 'sorry' for their slanderous comments etc. etc. & finish the rest of their posts off (as they begin to run out of steam/vocabulary!) with things like basic Anglo Saxon or HAHAHAHAHAHA.....!

If you're referring to my comments, I wasn't thinking of you Akimbo; if I was I wouldn't be afraid to say so now. I was referring to those who seldom (i.e. hardly ever!) post but always seem to spring up just to comment on how 'offended' they are by something or other - in this case, it seemed very much as though they clocked Julius having a bit of a 'moment' & instantly latched onto it, in the manner of a hardened troll, to see if they couldn't stir things up even more. That was my impression anyway.
I can see later how some other posters found it all getting a bit too much, as things did get somewhat heated & even reasonable comments can then be misconstrued or deemed offensive & to some, I'm sure they were.
I chose to stay out of it as I freely admit I don't have a 'rewind' or 'stop' button & it's usually better if I adopt the backing away slowly approach in such instances. That is now pretty much all I have to say on the subject, as my OH says I have to think of my blood pressure, which is dull but true! lol

This thread takes me back to the good old days:grin: Some people seem to like talking to themselves....:giggle:
 
I do like John Barrowman but, in my opinion, his career has nosedived a little - through his own choices - since the days of Doctor Who and Torchwood, when he was a serious actor. He seems to be concentrating more these days on his musical career - and appearing on QVC touting his men's skincare line. I just feel that such a talented man has a lot to offer, and could achieve a great deal more careerwise than he has already. It would be a wasted oppportunity if he didn't. QVC presenters are, fundamentally, sales people and John is a professional actor who is too good - that is no slight to the other presenters (unless you count dumb, dumber and dumbest!) - for a presenting role on QVC.
 
Kitten you are getting involved, and with some pretty emotive language and I clicked the report post at roughly the same time another long-standing member expressed concern. Your "fascist" comment is therefore inclusive of..well..me.

This is only the second time in 9 years I've reported a post. I'm not easily offended but I wouldn't fall on my sword to defend another poster by flouncing off because I don't know them from Adam.

I joined this forum about 18 months ago after lurking for about the same.
Even in that 3 years the amount of posts have dropped dramatically & it seems to have fewer members.

My point is we need to keep members IMO or the site will become unviable to continue, but I do understand why people leave.
The mods IMO can be too harsh at times.
 
Meanwhile back on topic, John Barrowman strikes me as a precocious child, he may well be talented but sometimes you wish he'd reign it in a bit. Okay in small doses.

There needs to be a handbook published to understand all the nuances, I'm exhausted by my ignorance! :mysmilie_50:
