    <description>&lt;P&gt;I have been around the forums in one&amp;nbsp;guise or another, long&amp;nbsp;enough to remember many of the posters mentioned, but not long enough to be part of the furniture here. I only post here&amp;nbsp;occasionally as I get a bit tired of the gang mentality attacking anyone with a slightly different view point to the gang. You have the "feminatzi gang", the "PC brigade" and the "Labor lubbers". Intelligent discussion and rational debate is drowned out by rah, rah, rah,&amp;nbsp;rhetoric and reporting. ( and lets not forget the dreaded "spelling police" LOL )&amp;nbsp; Anything to silence the&amp;nbsp;decenter of discussion.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Whilst I&amp;nbsp;don't mind a bit of&amp;nbsp;robust debate and probably enjoy " poking the possum " occasionally I just find a nice Scotch and Coke and a footy final on TV a bit more appealing at times than talking to idealogues with closed minds.. This is especially true when the emporer clearly has no clothes on, but no-one wants to admit to seeing his little wi!!y.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Everyone just go along pretending everything is OK and howl down anyone who says " I,ve seen it, its scrawny, wrinkly and&amp;nbsp;ugly "............ "Nothing to see here folks, move along, move along chant the gang all in one voice."&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; ( and by the way, we,ve reported your post cause we didnt like what you said&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;!!!! )&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you think the community board is slow, take a peek at the Powerseller forum. Again the gang mentality&amp;nbsp;(&amp;nbsp;Hi&amp;nbsp;horse ) could have been one&amp;nbsp;factor contributing to newer members avoiding the place. Combined with the reduction in number of powersellers around now and the place is a ghost town.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>I can't believe how quiet it is here. I remember years ago we predicted that the board would one day have so few members left that it would end up like this. At the time it seemed almost ridiculous.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Anyway, hello to anyone who remembers the good old days. I hope some of you are still around.</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Welcome home Silly. (hope I rememberd that correctly). Yes, it's a veritable wasteland here and now.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It's good to see you again, albeit in a rather attenuated and virtual sense. &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":winking_face:"&gt;😉&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Actually though, I don't think I ever used that monicker for you at the time; that was something the other Tockers called you. &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:"&gt;🙂&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I used to say that noone ever really leaves this place. They may only drop in a couple of times a year but there is something that keeps pulling them back. Come out come out wherever you are. &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":winking_face:"&gt;😉&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;There used to be a lot of friendly and not so friendly banter, the ferals paying a visit of a Friday night and quite provocative topics. I found topics and posts by bob the builder and cat_meow (I think they were) to be quite entertaining.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm going to keep my eye on this thread. It may grow to over 10000 posts like tockers or drunkards (can't really remember which one now).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;bjackson I found those posters entertaining tio. I'm still working out how to use the board. It has changed a lot since I was last here.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Unless you can PM the old folks and invite them back, I think that's rather unlikely . .&amp;nbsp; and . . . the moderation seems a bit more heavy handed nowadays so less chance of real fun and games.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;can't use HTML anymore, but on the upside, you'll not be limited to only 10 posts per day.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I very recently returned after a few years away, more because I was curious. I didn't even bother to use my previous ID. What's missing is the fun. But I suspect that is partly due to the rules and monitoring of the board. I haven't heard of one person being suspended - WOW.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
