Shock

[Borg Refinery]

It's not sarcastic, I'm being serious

[Barry]

I apologise to everyone on the forum I've been rude to, or who I've misjudged or made rude assumptions about and withdraw all those posts, that's unbecoming and there's no excuse for such behaviour

I also retract my rude, hypocritical, un-Christian posts about everyone else - without exception, all my judgmental posts about Nigel Farage, Keir Starmer, Boris Johnson etc - they're all far more successful than me and my disgusting words about them are just projection. They are all a 100,000x (minimum) more honest and far better people than me with much higher standards. My standards are vastly lower and I've no right to judge a single other living being

You'll hurt your tongue that far in your cheek.

What happened to your sense of humour? 

[Nick]

This is a lie.

The forum isn't loading properly for me and has a broken image in the top corner, my presence has clearly affected the running of the site after the scheduled downtime, right after I came back for a while so yes I do destroy forums by my mere presence 


And Zany's forum is going down the tubes, again my presence is the main factor 

It's clear me and Papasmurf are the destroyer of fora and will continue to be so forever   

You are on the Mobile version which hasn't fully been completed yet, hence the broken image.

[Borg Refinery]

Not my experience of you and we've crossed swords keyboards over a fair number of them.

Just wanted to point out that the forum hasn't crumbled and died. This might come as a shock, but it's true.

Rival sites pretending to be a harbour for a better quality of poster but in fact proving to be nothing of the kind will certainly help this place. It is the main reason for my return for one thing. And I suspect I will not be alone in posting here more often after what has transpired elsewhere.

As Cromwell knows, my presence usually means the implosion of forums  . .

Now I've come back I fully expect this forum to fold within five days

Papa's absence means forums die and my presence guarantees they will

Between us we can wreck the entire internet!!!

There is not much traffic though I away for five days. Not much was posted.

Smurf's view on his importance is way out of kilter with reality, the fact is traffic was up whilst he was on a forced holiday.

There have been hundreds of posts, you can look at the stats if you want.
279 posts whilst you were gone compared to 195 the 5 days leading up to your holiday.

Looking quite healthy wouldn't you say?

[Unlucky4Sum]

Often very ill informed opinions not relating to the reality.  (Mind you the media/press, MPs, and government ministers are just as guilty of lies and propaganda.)

Well maybe just go away then and start your own forum then - if you do, don't bother sending me a link to it.

This is a site with differing opinions,

Postings on this site are rarely healthy because so few people actually keep up with current affairs and news.

You then have to ask yourself if you find the people on here so ill informed and on other sites too because you disparage them why you actually  come here.

This is a site with differing opinions,here people actually do keep up with current affairs and not with what is just happening in Cornwall.

Either embrace it for what it is a discussion forum where people are allowed alternate opinions or go and set up your own forum where you can dictate the narrative.

Ive known your persona on forums for fifteen years you have always said the same and will argue the sky is green not blue and everyone else is wrong if the mood takes you.

Give people some respect and you might get some back because for years and on forums you've been no more than the the forum jester a figure of fun.

[papasmurf]

No it was not.  Just click it again and you'll see a new set of posts appears because they are now the most recent posts.  https://pol-tics.com/index.php?action=recent;start=0

You'll also see how healthy posting was on this site during your absence
