I dont understand why some people feel the need to be nasty on other peoples threads. Why is it the people that do this dont use their own names. It has been said before and will be said again, if you dont like a thread just leave it and move on to another. Dont be hurtful and nasty about people, we all have feelings. |

Best thing to do Joanne is not to bother wasting your time acknowledging their comments..I rise above it noticing there was one earlier! Susie xx |

All I'd say on that, Jo, is if people have something to say, whether agreeing on a thread or not, there are ways to say it, and ways that don't help their cause at all! Though most people on here are smashing. x |

It is extremely tempting sometimes to retaliate back, but usually such remarks are there simply to get a rise out of someone so why give them what they want. If it's abusive then report it, if not then sit on your hands, lol. |

I understand that people dont always agree with what is written and that then becomes a debate but what I cant agree with is the minority over the last few days that are just damn right nasty for no reason. I know it will always happen but lets see if they can give an adult response on this thread. Susie, you got it. merchant banker!!!! well I never, no need. |

You,re right and you are wrong. No-one likes nasty comments, but some people need to release their own frustrations. If we can recognise that, the problem is not so great. happy days |

Harry, I will now go and nudge the Arghhhhhhhhhhh (Bite Yer Tongue) thread for them to do that instead of it being aimed at people who are enjoying themselves and having a laugh..... Susie xx |

I agree some people need to vent frustration but there are ways to say things without being hurtful, spiteful or mailicious to others. Some people may not like a thread and comment about it, or a topic (I saw that earlier) ok they don't like it, there was a warning to state it was rude, they had the choice, they chose to read it happens here all the time. To be honest that won't change. The nastiness against fellow members should change, no one has the right to be so rude or nasty to others who haven't been that way to them. Pat x |

. I certainly wouldn,t like them. The quotes you give, do seem a bit extreme and I certainly wouldn,t like them . Was just trying to outline the principal that we need a little bit of understanding for the more unfortunate ones. No offence. best wishes happy days |
