Recognition for my "talent" at last.

i'll ask uncle john the hermit next time i'm down that way.

I would have thought in relation to what happened to Brenda R.I.P. that people would be more careful before bandying around ridiculous accusations against others of being a 'troll' who are very clearly not a 'troll'.

Marky in light of what happened to Brenda that remark is uncalled for imo

ah, stop being so sensitive.

I would call it being sensible, we have clearly seen over the years the vindictiveness of some of the pros some of whom appear to be unbalanced people who seem to spend their time scouring social media for their next victims so imo labelling someone as a troll is not a sensible thing to do and completely uncalled for.

as you wish but you seem to have omitted the so called 'antis' from your comment, some of whom have been just as unbalanced and vindictive or is that okay with you?

As anyone would know Marky no it is not ok with me which is why I have regularly over the years on social media said any form of nastiness and abuse is uncalled for whoever it comes from. Incidentally the number of antis who act in this way are a minority, the number of pros who act in this way are the majority. I don't condone any nastiness whoever does it.

I directed my remarks in relation to the pros due to what they did in relation to Brenda, they along with Sky News contributed to the death of an innocent woman who was labelled a 'troll' which she clearly wasn't so for the purpose of this discussion I made reference to the pros as an innocent woman lost her life due partly to their actions.

We will have to agree to disagree on that one!

but of course, never thought you'd ever bend over on that one.

I was referring to the your comment about antis and pros being about the same!

so was i.

To be honest not really sure what you are going on about so we best leave the discussion there.

yes cherry, i know.

No doubt I shall kick myself when someone answers, but who is the "jd" referred to earlier?

no doubt, no doubt at all.

Judge Dread I believe

Okay, I'm kicking myself!

we're both talking about pros and antis being the same. okay now?
