I dont see the online discussion here has any value.....i think the whole of CMOMM has no value..you may have an over inflated view of the value of your posts.....you may think you add something to the investigation...i certainly dont...there are 7 guests watching this thread so i dont see how any comments here can be of any importance
The discussions here don't have any value, beyond the facility to say what one personally thinks for ones own satisfaction.
Most of my comments get entirely ignored, but that's okay because I was able to say whatever.
A face to face discussion or argument isn't any different. But some of us don't have face to face people to talk to. Certainly not people who are interested in The McCanns.
My neighbours roll their eyes in horror if I so much as dare to mention it. So we have punch ups about things that are more pertinent to our daily lives.
There is nothing wrong with this Forum. It serves a purpose.
