You seem like a man who has seen The Other One Alan- what's your opinion on it?

Oh yes, and welcome back Alan!

Yes I have seen both series of The Other One and, although it is not a classic, I did enjoy elements of the programme. Michael Gambon was not the best person to be a foil to Richard Briers but I did warm to him .. eventually.

Hi Aaron, I'm not back just having a bank holiday - so to speak :-)

Well ... erm... Hello anyway!

Well the problem I have with this forum, Aaron, and I why I stay away ... is that you seem to stamp your opinion on almost every thread. I have never known an "administrator" have such control over the output of a forum and I find it uncomfortable. I enjoyed talking to people in here in the past but, inevitably, you would interject and force me to listen to you. I'm sorry if this sounds harsh but there ya go. That was a short bank holdiay .. damn the English weather! grrr

I'll put forward an opinion or observation if I have one, just as I hope everyone else would do. That's what a message board is for, surely? But no one has to listen to another member, or interact with them - or even acknowledge them. Except for when a member of staff is acting in an 'official capacity', as it were!

I'm not totally sure what you're referring to, perhaps I don't have the best manner in expressing my opinion, but I don't go around editing peoples' posts to 'correct' their thoughts of a programme into line with my own, so I don't quite understand what you mean by my having "such control"?

Perfectly happy to discuss this BTW - but not in this thread, following the off-topic rules. (If it's those you're referring to, it's all Mark's doing, not mine!) I am genuinely interested, and sorry to hear that you feel that way, so do PM me if you have time.

What Alan C needs is an Ignore button.

(Unfortunately for the aforementioned reason - that they may act on 'official' business - it wouldn't be possible to ignore staff members, so wouldn't do much good in this situation.)

At the risk of being penalised for going off topic, I generally enjoy your posts Aaron. You obviously put a lot of work into this site, and that's purely because you're an enthusiast. I'm reminded of the Voltaire quote: "though I disapprove of what you say, I would defend to the death your right to say it. "

Though not to the death, obviously.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is that I like your posts, you racist, right-wing little scamp.

Fag.

Thanks Rob. I am indeed just an enthusiast. With far too much spare/wasted time.

Now, I will have to mark all of these as off topic now, unfortunately.

But not zooo's! If I didn't know you were complete strangers to each other, I could accuse you of favouritism.

By the way, reading half-invisible posts narf hurts my peepers.
