What gave you that idea Willow?
I was just curious about who the Big Guns are and what was meant by the terminology.

I appreciate your attempt to keep this thread alive but for now I will take the fifth amendment.

It's not an attempt to keep the thread alive. It's a question which I hoped you might have been able to provide an answer to.

To be honest this whole " Mafia/ Newbie/conspiracy " thing is putting me off even looking at this website now.

Sadly, I think that is there intent.

The reference to 'Big Guns' seems to bother you somewhat.
I am able to provide an answer to the question, but taking the 5th I choose not to.
If you think this refers to you that is your problem if not then so be it.

Under the same umbrella Jim.
'Whatever you say will be used in evidence'
I still choose not to comment.
Even in Darwen.

I guess I'm lucky.

I've never been afraid to say what I think, and have never had to resort to speaking in riddles, or claiming the right to silence.

A spades a spade, and all that, to me.:)

When two of the "Big Guns" kick in (As they have) It turns into a slanging match.
:( I know I'm not 'Mafia' lol I said that elsewhere on the forum. I don't know what the heck is going on most of the time and I'm baffled by the idea that people think there are any 'special' members - call them what you will. I was merely asking if 'Big Guns' was another term for that.

Crikey what is going on here??/ All this talk of big members..ooer missus :D
but come on if the so called long term members were such a problem then why is it only recently things have gone down hill on here?? Lots of arguing and back biting..but it always seems to involve a newbie, which in my mind seems to be mostly the same person (just my opinion and I could be wrong)

We've had laughter, disagreements, strong opinions, sillyness, advice to each other etc... etc.... and never decended into having a real go at each other and I for one have loved been a member of this forum for the past two years but lately theres seems to be thread after thread decending into arguments... and I think you can count out the long term members as causing it otherwise this would have been a problem for a long time!!!!

Perhaps the 'big guns' are members, who in the middle of a debate are asked a question about something they have posted, and when asked to expand what they meant, actually have enough skill, or even basic good manners, to answer it.

Since both you by asking, and myself in answering your query, are by definition, big guns.:D:D
