I don't take any notice of the carping, bitching, etc., even when it's directed at me. As far as I'm concerned this is just a website, it's not real life, and I can take it or leave it as the mood takes me. If a thread gets nasty, personal, whatever, I just don't post. If something interests me, annoys me or I disagree strongly, I say so and that's the end of it. If I get a nasty reply - it's water off a duck's back and, to be honest, it usually makes me laugh (especially when the spelling's a bit iffy

).
Mez, if you want to stop posting that's your prerogative. I presume you're announcing your decision to make a point and it's sad that you feel you need to do so. It's been nice talking to you.
