Wolfenrook
Well-Known Forumite
Going to say goodbye now, although I doubt any of you will miss me particularly.
3 reasons really.
1) We now live in Wolverhampton, and I feel no real ties to Stafford. I was born in S-O-T and raised in Yarnfield.
2) Tha lack of moderation on here, both from the 'moderators' and by many of the members themselves. I mean, seriously, posting a pic of a penis to call another member a dick? Not to mention all of DB's posts that consist solely of him attacking people, without actually even contributing anything to the post....
3) My grammer and use of English aren't perfect (but they are a lot better than that of 95% of internet users...), and to be blunt if I wanted English lessons I would ask for them. So when mods join in with the pedantic and pathetic nit picking (read grammer nazis...), especially ones who are supposed to be the nicest people on here, I see that as a good indication that it's time to walk away.
There are plenty of very nice people on here, it's a shame that a handfull of douche bags, and a lack of guidance and moderation, spoil it.
Flounce? Very much so and unashamedly. Do I think this site is an "old boy's club"? No, I just think that douche bags+no moderation= a forum I can't really be bothered to support.
Here's the crazy thing, it's not even HC and Hothouse that have made me feel this way, it's the idiots like Dirty Bobby.
Regards, and happy flame wars.
