I keep reading posts that refer to the 'old posters' who used to post on here and how much they are missed.



Can someone tell me who they were?

Well, 130 views on this post but no names of any 'old posters'.



Strange!

Some of them are still with us, only the names have been changed to protect their identity etc.

240 views and still no names. Very strange this one. Despite various posters claiming that the 'old posters' won't post anymore, not one name put forward!!

Yes Lilli,

I too miss posters like Wyn, Wackyjim, Groucho, things certainly seemed a lot more pleasant then, or is it just my age.

Just a thought: you cannot offend people who are not who they pretend to be.

Quite a lot of people here use fake identities - you cannot offend people who are not who they pretend to be. Clear?

RE msg 20, hattikins: (...) Perhaps nicknames, Dutch Crusader, but fake identities and no email address, oh surely not. (...)

=> Hattikins, if you know how to it you can join this board with a fake identity via one of hundreds proxy servers and an email address that only exists for two minutes, 20 minutes, two days etc and then disappears for ever. Or an email address @gmail.com (you can have 20 regular ones but with a little trick hundreds more - if you know how to do it). That's how one of the notorious (banned) rule breakers on this board does it time and time again. There are ways to keep a bulletin board clean, but - and I understand the reason - not every BB is interested in a clean mailing list.

Thanks Dutch but I'm alright as I am, I have put my name, age, sex, marital status,occupation and where I live. My blood group is known to Nurseawful and my height and weight are my business, that should be enough information to warrant my membership on this board, but thanks for the offer.

I know Dutch, that was just tongue in cheek, I just wonder why other people feel they have to hide information, ok if they don't feel comfortable putting an email address, but anything else, does it really matter.

So there you have it, the sum total of 'old posters' is 3. One doesn't post anymore and two that occasionally post.

Dear Newscoop re 35



what you seem to forget about pikey is that he Does has a pad in Kyrenia.... he is expressing ( sometimes too "aggressively" for some) an opinion whilst "throwing stones" from a "castle" with internationally recognised title..

The essential thing to remember is that by its nature this board is dynamic and as some members leave (although they don't seem to be away for too long) other new members join bringing their own brand of discussion and humour to the board. In fact looking at the details of new posters there are more than those that have chosen to leave the board.
