Has Community Spirit lost its Community Spirit?
Certainly feels a different place to me

Hi waterlily 🙂 yes, Friday nights were fun... Sunday nights were notorious. This is nothing like the old RT.
my old boss Trish has been booted out of the Labor senate for Nova. I haven't worked out my opinion yet, but I guess it's a clever strategic decision... Feel sorry for Trish tho, she's such an incredibly hard worker. I'll always remember how she used to arrive at work with her kids faces covered in vegemite every morning cos she fed them breakfast in the car :^O
heading to work, see you later waterlily

She is an honest hard worker, maybe that was her downfall :-x

I wonder is anyone here has met, without knowing, someone in RL with whom they are enemies on the boards?
Wouldn't it be hilarious if you got on well with them in RL and had not idea that you were sniping them on the boards...
Worth considering :^O
yes it could interesting and when you consider just how small the world is and the Six degrees of separation theory it could happen more often than people think

I see ebay people every day at my post office, I say hi and know they are ebay people because of the amount of postage they have.
I would not have a clue if they post on the boards though, maybe I will ask one day.

I don't get the "enemies" reference. If you don't agree with a post or the poster, put your side of the debate up, not enter into an enemy partnership, that's silly.
I have had many an argument on here but never considered the opposing poster an enemy.
Maybe that's why so many people don't come here. Maybe that's the reason the CS has lost integrity.

I think you maybe onto something, many are of the opinion that if you don't agree or go along with them you must be an enemy and not just an individual with a differening opinion or position on an issue

people should be able to put their point forward and disagree, without others resorting to personal attacks.
it can be done in a respectful manner

I'm just back from ebali so I probably should keep my trap shut. ]:)
In a perfect world where adults participate in a debate it should never end up in the enemy category, should not be reported until you're banished from the boards for a week just because you have a differing opinion.
Stalkers are the worst of the worst. If you report you should not be able to do it annomously then we may see a different CS.
Another thing that is a despicable trait is trying to get infomation on posters, trying to get information on ID's, ganging up on posters by cliques.
Nero is a hero for his posts but he's hated by the left, & subsequently vilified no end, as with a couple of others.

then there are those who would have you believe they are sweet and nice agreeing with just about everyone but sending some disturbing and vile messages ...... 😞
