i can find the mob mentality on here very distasteful and cowardly
there are a lot of people who wont put their heads above the parapet, until they feel there is a safety in numbers and then they all pile in
one of the things i most like about this place is the large number of intelligent freethinkers, though this seems to be reducing as the population grows
i like the way the forum now suggests other threads that may be relevant before a new one is started, perhaps it needs to also compare similar terms, eg rigid, stiff, flex etc
though not being a programmer i am not sure how this might work and possibly if it was left open to the members then dj would become synonymous with cunt (probably happened already)
there are a number of people who have been the forum punchbag at various times, though raff seems to have been a regular one for a long time
as i have said previously i find him socially awkward (and i was pretty hideous to him to start with) he is not someone i'd call to go for a coffee with but the continual kicking he receives here is grim to witness
however i too find him frustrating, and raff does not seem to have progressed in his forum use since his early posts
though i dont see his internet naivety is as bad as paul michel who seemed to harbour a lot of really quite offensive viewpoints
