Poddster, you actually don't need anyone to tell you who is reporting - you are smart enough to work it out, starting with this thread. I don't know if you were using reverse-psychology, but by some of the defensive answers to your OP, it's obvious who reports, although I feel more pity for them than anything as it's indicative of their feeling of no control, in their life and on these boards. They know they cannot influence certain members due to their weak character and yet, it must be hard for them as they have to constrain themselves in order not to get a slap, themselves. Reporting and not getting reported has become their life's work (one who is here all day and night has claimed on a dishwasher thread that she actually works lol. If so, somebody should alert her boss as she certainly doesn't have time to do anything constructive with her life given all her posts and behind the scenes reporting lol!) It is obvious how much credence they place in reports and getting slapped so perhaps the reverse should occur. perhaps posters like you and me should band together and start mass reporting certain individuals until they are removed from the boards, whattya say, boo? 

A tempting offer but I must decline, I have never reported any post and I won't start now. 🙂

I guess it is tied up with integrity. And yes I have a very good idea who the people are who take delight in pushing the "BUTTON"  As the saying goes "slowley, slowley catchee monkey" 😉

say errr .. poddo. 

wot did you think of turnbull's comment,   that  'in choosing the cheaper FTTN (Fibre to the Node) option, rather than Fibre to the Home (FTTH), the Coalition is following world’s best practice.'  :^O

how's about you start another thread debatin' various points of view on the nbn, safe to say, i'll be in it. 

Relax eloi, I know it's difficult for you to see poddster and I sharing a friendly conversation that you cannot be a part of but that's just life. Poddster doesn't have to create a thread that suits your participation - I doubt your absence in this thread was noticed by either one of us 🙂

Bump 🙂

I match that bump and raise you a bulge 😉

I'll see your bulge and raise you a valley:^O

I think if we go any further we'll be raising a baby 😉

I have raised 3 (on my own) but that was a while ago and it aint that scary.

LOL, I also raised three and it was definitely a while ago, thank god. With the hectic fast pace of today's world I don't think I could take raising three young children.

Just taking a trip into Melbourne with the kids in the 80's was exhausting - I thought it was way too crowded - but today, I feel like I'm in Tokyo...
