Oh dear, having been away for quite a while and just recently come back, I was hoping that CT would have settled down a bit, and become a much happier place.

But no, its still populated by several who just love to argue. It dosen't matter what about, lets just be as arguementataive as possible score points, and try to belittle any one who you don't agree with.

Sadly several of the relatively new contributors are giving distinct signs of being the new trolls that I thought we might have got to go away.

Luckily being one of the old ***s I have been there before and my T shirt is quite worn out, so I'm not too worried about what abuse any of you want to chuck this way. But I will say this.

I have been a member of this club since the very early days, and I consider CT to be a very positive factor in the clubs continued success.  But the constant arguements and the attempts to put others down is not the way to hold any debate. The ability to put your point forward without rancour, sarcasm or sheer abuse is the mark of a proper well balanced person.  That does not require a private education or anything like that,  spelling is not the ultimate test I know that mine can let me down sometimes. I was a product of the secondary modern system but even I can appreciate the need to put an argement forward constructively.

Common Guys lets keep CT on the right track. Keep the lid on it!

Write your comments here...They are so easy to ignore Ian, everybody knows why they post the way they do. . Being polite and having respect for their fellow posters is not part of their posting style.

Ah, your so right, isn't it so disrespectful to use derogatory terms against fellow posters particularly rule abiding ones. I remember being labeled a 'pitch blocker', a loop holer', a 'something for nothing' but I knew the posters were just misguided and in need of help in their understanding of our rules. Sometimes we just need to forgive those who should know better don't you think? Let's just be friendly!

It reminds me of the old comedy club, where some one in the audience gets picked on by the comedian, every one gets a smile except the bloke who got picked on, in the forum we have a comedian then his straight man, and weve even got a groupie who likes every post they do..

Write your comments here...Yep, the " group of five" can't help themselves.   The rest of us, the decent members, just have to realise that they don't know any better and make allowance for them.  Always nice to help those in need. Smile
