Has there ever been a new thread on Chit Chat that has ended up discussing the same point that it started with?!! Those that I have started usually manage about 5 comments before we are off on a completely different slant. Now we need some discipline here - anyone agree to be desciplined for straying off the subject. Oh no!! I've just realised what I may have started .......HELP!!

I just put a piece of electrical tape over the screen where an offensive post occurs.

Can Tombstone increase the size of the forum window? It would help if there was more than one square inch visible at a time. :rolleyes:

Thank GOD we are all free-thinking people and beyond the "need" to have others tell us what and how to post.

Conversations stray, plain and simple. It's how LIFE works. For people to say we need to be controlled is just another pretty little label for censorship. I've said it before, I'll say it again....I explain and try to justify my responses to NO ONE. Don't like what I've got to say? Don't read me.

Why would there be discipline in the Chit chat forum??

I agree with Novelty that a serious subject should have serious replies, but in life we don't always get what we want, we take what we get, complain about what we don't have and just seems no-one is ever satisfied!

Try cooking it properly.

Add lashings of salt, MSG, garlic, pepper and lark's vomit for that authentic

forn flavour.

Is it possible for the English to not know how to pronounce their own words?

Or they just don't know how to spell what they meant to say?
