Another refugee

[Lurker]

Hi folks

Hedging my bets, but it looks like the other place's owner is getting a bit silly.
I may fully defect if it continues.

the dinghies are certainly hitting the new world today welcome, pitch your tent wherever you like

 

[Mike G]

My goodness, it's getting busy! Great to see you here, and I promise you'll find it a friendly and gentle place. Moderation is superb, with excellent communication and clarity.

 

[Craig Salisbury]

hahaha did you see that SammyQ post just got deleted? in the "other place"

 

[novocaine]

Something about a sinking ship?

Hi.

 

[SamQ aka Ah! Q!]

Hiya!! I do believe I have just been blocked, sent to Coventry, become a 'non-person....aahhhh, 1984.....

 

[Craig Salisbury]

hahahahahahahaha

 

[SamQ aka Ah! Q!]

I was supporting Cabinetman, a.k.a. Ian, and was merely asking for clarity re WHY threads were being excised, when '" pouff!" all priveges withdrawn! Mind you, I was only there for 16 years...noobie I think the hoi-palloi call it...

I think it was Groucho Marks (or maybe Oscar Wilde?) who said:
" I wouldn't want to be a member of a club that would have me".

Much better over here among the sane people, he said, scratching his right ear with his left foot....

There's another place, I must be lucky to have stumbled in here first (it was the lure of MikeG's renovation build that got me). No point in asking where the other place was as it doesn't sound like the kind of place I want to be.

Moderation is superb, with excellent communication and clarity.

Absolutely Mike! We owe a debt of gratitude in that respect to Mark, Bob and possibly others I am unaware of.

By contrast, The PlaceThat Shall Not Be Mentioned seems to be truely Orwellian presently. "Sayin' nae merr", case closed.

Welcome Lurker, hope you enjoy it here. Much quieter than UKW but we like it that way, much easier to keep up with the content and less arguing. Enjoy.

Thanks Sam

As you say, let's leave that there, we have absolutely no axe to grind (pardon the pun) with UKW, just a slightly different approach. There's room for everyone who wants to be here and abide by the 'rules' as such they are.

 

[Cabinetman]

Welcome, it’s been a funny old day!

 

[RogerS]

Hey, Lurker ....welcome, my friend.

I fear that it won't be quiet for long.
You see, you've let the riff raff in, and whilst it may appear that they (we) know how to behave in polite society, it is all a front to lure you in to a false sense of security. Heed this warning, hide the sherry before it gets out of hand.

What Mike said. Welcome - Rob

 

[Lurker]

Thanks for the welcome, I feel at home already with so many familiar names

Maybe we should form a "persona non gratis " club? :lol:
No ties though, I dont do ties, but i could be interested in a T shirt.

 

[Craig Salisbury]

[SamQ aka Ah! Q!]
