Cross forum bitching and reposting of links that lead to an argument elsewhere are not welcome.

If there is an issue between two different bloggers or forums, let them sort it out.

If there is already 'bad blood' and history between two protagonists, then let them get on with it.

Bringing up an old argument (2012 in the last instance) is not helpful.

Thank you for posting this Toddy.
I come here to learn and to get ideas for things to do or make.
I can find all the arguments I want by just walking out my door.
Forums like this are for apleasureable expreience, not for a word fight!!

Don't know the story behind Toddy's post but the MOD's has a hard time making this a lovely place to visit and be. Hope folk aren't thinking things will be relaxed as the MOOT looms and some MODS will be offline.

It's a great place and hopefully folk can discuss things rather than get into a slanging match. So cheers for the hard work moderating Toddy and keep up the good work.

ATB,
GB.

The Boss thought of having another one at a different time of year, somewhere else, but the site's the problem.

I would love that, I really would :D

We have favourite sites up here, but there's no 'closed access', iimmc., and the Moot site at Merthyr is a woodland on sand, and that's brilliant. No real fire risk, easy to put up tents, hammocks, chutes and so on, and it dries out quickly even if it pours. Hard to find all that here complete with running water and decent sewerage and still be easily accessible for folks too.

Merthyr's great, it's just that it's so far away for me. Around eight hours drive, and with elderly family really not well, it's a long way to go to have to maybe just come right back :sigh:

Maybe it's time to find sites and suggest them to the Boss :)

cheers,
Toddy

Tried to sent by PM but your mail box is full:

Sorry to hear you won't be at the Moot Mary. You will be greatly missed I'm sure.

Also sorry to hear you are having health concerns in the family, that's never easy.

I'm sure you could do without all the bitching in the background. ( I must admit, I've been busy with other things so happily it passed me by but I know exactly the sort of thing that you're talking about. )

Hope things work out alright for you.

Take care and Debs sends her love too.

You could fly surely as the cheapest and quickest, or take the train. I would not advise the coach as that 8 hours soon turns into 16 all at the coaches mercy, cooped up in a small seat. Have a look how much a plane ticket is.

If your biggest concern is getting back at people on the Internet, you need to re evaluate your priorities.

Thank you both :D I'm going to miss you too :grouphug:

petrochemicals; the Moot is a brilliant event, and since I want to socialise and chill out I take a chute and a full fire set up as well as masses of stuff for teaching.
There's no way to fly that lot down outside of a Hercules :D

In fairness to those who posted the removed threads; they didn't know that the arguement had already been done and dusted (and caused hassle then) here a couple of years ago.

cheers,
M
