Paedophiles in Parliament

Nope.  Caro and Apes will know who I'm referring to.

A troop of gorillas in the North East, you mean?

It is irrelevant.  They aren't being nasty to me personally.  I am just the figure of authority.  That is what they don't like.

I rode through that one a very long time ago.  I am now impervious.  You will get there in the end.

I ran my own forum many years ago and certainly didn’t see myself as a figure of authority 😤

But I have seen moderators on forums who feel incredibly important....

[ISpyWithMyEye]

As you say, it's a matter of interpretation. Others see me differently.

But you must know when you’re being nasty, Gunit

You said how you secretly smirked when your friend said her dog avoided you after you'd back-heeled him on his nose...the fact you smirked afterwards shows you got some strange kind of pleasure from hurting him

Dont you think that’s nasty?

[ISpyWithMyEye]

You have an undertone of being patronising, I am sure I am not the only one who thinks that way.

You’re not the only one, Caroline...

[ISpyWithMyEye]

Not just you.  I think that most of you are awful.  And after many years on The McCann Forum that is saying something.

So why do you stay, Eleanor.

This isn’t a job; you don’t get paid.

Why subject yourself to reading through awful people’s posts when you could be doing something far more entertaining and far more healthy?

It seems some people interpret my posting style as hostile and others don't. I try to make my posts accurate and informative and I prefer arguments to include verifiable facts rather than opinion.

I have never found your posts either patronising or hostile.  Interesting that this is being discussed though, as I left another forum because I disliked the aggressive tone in which one particular person replied to me (and sometimes to others). However, nobody else seemed to find it a problem.  Oh well--------.

As a moderator, I certainly don't see myself as an authority figure, just as someone attempting to help keep the forum running in an orderly manner.

Did see myself as "in authority" when I was teaching in secondary schools though----I had to, otherwise nobody would have learned anything, and I would have lost my job.

I don't know  any apes Holly - met a bit of a gorilla once on a night out on the toon - but that's another  story!

Many have studied the case for years but I think we both know of some who will never grasp as much as G-Unit has in a relatively short space of time 

Some people don't want to  -  my  problem isn't with people thinking he's innocent, it's  the constant excuses  and not realising how many they are making. No matter how much knowledge,  that seems  to be a constant.

I think G-Unit just has that methodical type of brain and enjoys assimilating information.  You have certainly hit the nail on the head as far as I am concerned though.  I think it is next to impossible for the rest of us newbies to play catch-up with you guys who have probably forgotten more than we'll ever assimilate and I don't even want to make the attempt.  Also I think it is totally irrelevant for us to even think of second guessing the legal deliberations which in my opinion came to the right decision as far as Bamber was concerned.

I think it important to stress that although I believe Bamber acted as Judge, Jury and Executioner of his family - giving them no opportunity to plead their case (or even to make peace with their God) and certainly no chance of appealing his judgement on them as he was able to do on the judgement on him ... I believe he had a fair trial and the sentence was commensurate with enormity of the crime he committed.

As far as I can see from my limited reading of the history of the appeals and leaves to appeal he has never actually beat the drum too much about innocence or evidence of innocence ... it is all about technicalities and I'm not too impressed by that.

Strange you should pick that up, Brietta. I've often had the impression that he's dissociated himself -his person- from the situation, and is doing work on behalf of a third person.

You accuse me of making 'excuses' but that's your subjective opinion. My subjective opinion is that some other posters repeat rumours and misquotes rather than facts to support their viewpoint. Neither of our opinions matter.

What matters in my opinion is whether people are posting facts, supported by cites, or whether they're just repeating something they think they read somewhere but can't remember where.

It really doesn’t matter, this isn’t a court of law or a police investigation, it’s just a chat forum.  I take it all with a massive pinch of salt snf a large amount of cynicism.

So posting misinformation is OK on chat forums in your opinion? This 'chat forum' has rules which say it isn't.
