please, people, get off my case...have you even considered trying to get to know me? you'll be suprised...

Why, what's happened?

Car Expert

No - and don't want to. You are a horrible person who is sooo arrogant

Why start a thread on yourself? Stop snapping back, then maybe we might.

All we want to do is help but you're not giving us a chance!

When we try to help, you just snap back at us, so what are we meant to do?

fine whatever...shall i just sit here and take criticism with good grace then? *sigh*

you just cant win on this forum




[I][SIZE=14] I GIVE UP!!![/I]

For as long as you stay here you'll get critcised. We don't like arrogant idiots on here

ok

I am not critisizing anyone! I'm just saying if you try and listen to what we say instead of just trying to automatically think that we're critisizing you then maybe people will see a different side of you. And also, people have DIFFERENT opinions. Just so that you know that yours aren't always correct in other people's minds.

Yes, in threads we have offered advice and helpful replies, but when you snap back at us, it doesn't help your cause. Golden rule here is if people don't like what they see then they don't have to reply.

Not all critisism is meant to harm. 90% of the handspan thread was giving you constructive critisism. You have no chance of improving if you don't know where you're going wrong, which is why the forum members have helpfully pointed it out.

It has started to get a bit personal now though, but to be fair you have brought it all on yourself through your ignorant/arrogant attitude...

We're not critisizing you! If you want everyone to be nicer to you then you should try being nicer to us. A bit more politeness doesnt hurt does it? Everyone makes mistakes and if we all accept this we'll do fine!

ok then

Good. Hopefully we have 'Turned a new leaf' so to speak.

k

YAY!! *bakes cake to celebrate despite having cold*

fun

If you truly have turned over a new leaf, GCBS, I think you'll find the forum suddenly becomes a far nicer place to be.

yay hes turned over a new leaf (i have always thought he should i mean why let such a witty name go to waste

please, please tell me that was sarcastic...

All I know is that GCBS PM'd some people and they got angry, he tried to get away from it by changing his name. So far he has done nothing to me, so I have nothing against him.

Well obviously some people haven't read his posts

Lets forget about that now if we're all going to start afresh.

Wonder how long this is going to last and how many chances he's going to get given

This guy has really done some bad things hasn't he?

I'll keep my mouth shut. That'll answer your question.

oh i honestly thought his name was quite funny (doesnt reflect the user though)

As many as it takes.

We'll be here forever then

I think this is a lovely place. People aren't nasty to you if you refuse to get involved in arguments. Of course you will never agree with everything you read, but I think one of the best things about humans is that we're all different and entitled to our opinions. If I see a thread I don't like, I stop reading it.

Aw, don't be like that Nat! If we give him a chance theres a chance that he'll be nicer, if we keep having a go at him itll only just get worse and nobody will be happy. Anyway, 'a long journey begins with a single step' (or something like that...) Once the first step is taken, things will get easier! (hopefully)

I'm not being like anything. I'm just saying what I think.

Nat, the ignore function is VERY useful if you want to ignore him till such a time as he proves he's reformed...

Ah yes

Um... How would you know if he's changed if you never see him?

Just stop it - this forum is a friendly place!

Nat: I don't like your comments any more than GCBS's. Can you argue about this via e-mail please and leave the rest of the world out of it!

for once i am against nat (dangerous position i know) because i am sure he has a wealth of info to contribute with a bit of hard work and a huge dollop of manners (and acceptance on both sides) he could become a valued member of this forum

I agree contick.
I also think that Nat is not a saint, whatever some people around here may think.

bless ya

Glad to see you've got a sense of humour! I was afraid of a huge verbal attack!

Sarcasm

sadly, if we have a repeat of last time, the rest of the world will get dragged into it with lovely *cough* PM's for the slightest comment. i'm all for giving people a second chance, but this is getting a bit repetitive now....

Inclined to agree with Charlotte, this is getting tedious . GCBS claims he's going to turn over a new leaf - I'm hoping it sticks, and willing to give him a chance...

The ignore function is available for those who don't want to...

Noodelz, I'm guessing Nat will hear about GCBS from others even if she doesn't read his posts. I don't think it'll be too hard to work out whether he's actually trying or not....

Let's hope it stops affecting other threads, it's really beginning to get wearing!!!

Nat, a saint???.......... sorry hon, but

Nat, random, but... you ALMOST have email... (it's taken 25 minutes......)

Thanks sarah

25 mins?!!! flippin 'eck you must be sending a lot!

Got it Sarah

Nat, you're welcome

my connection is just SLOW

Now for the chill I have been promising myself for about 5 hours... argh!

Oh, I'm sorry, it's just that I have the unnatural tendency to think the best of people. But clearly I was mistaken. It won't happen again.
