Re: What’s a nice thread?
Which chin should that be AccyJay? When I bend my head downwards I have two.
Anyway it’s not the Karma thing but the anonymity of the ‘gift’ that annoys a bit. People should be prepared to stand by what they say. I guess it takes all sort.
Ah! Well! Such is life. (They don’t like the French version ‘cos it comes under foreign languages)

Re: What’s a nice thread?
I never liked the word 'nice'....it doesn't mean anything and my old English teacher would do her nut if you put that word in anything she had to mark.
I know that the anonymous karma taker didn't mean 'why don't you post interesting threads'....because it seems to me JB that you DO.......maybe they meant light-hearted threads.....or maybe funny threads.....or even kind threads. You can be sure of one thing.....they didn't say what they meant!

Re: What’s a nice thread?
You have in the past said you don't believe in the karma system, so how then in your opinion can it be devalued by Cowards?
Neither you or jam are the only ones to have had karma removed recently, it has happened to a few of us.
If you don't like the karma system there are two things you can do, one of them is ignore it and actually post something worthwhile, (sit down Jambuttie, I'm not including you in this) and the other is well, I don't suppose you want to know what the other is!

Perhaps you're losing karma points because the language you are using in your post's is upsetting people?

I like the word ‘nice’ Margaret Pilkington. It’s, well nice.
Rightly or wrongly I took it to mean the opposite of nasty.
I know that I’m not the only one to get negative Karma Less but as I said before if someone can’t put their name to what they state then it’s a poor do. It’s not as if it is their real name so that the person can be identified in real life. Even if they could be identified, is someone going to go round and bop them on the nose? No of course not.
I see this Karma thing as just a means of expressing how a post is viewed.
I notice that the smiley at the end of your post reads “THIS TOPIC SUCKS”. If that is your opinion then why add to the thread?
By the way my user name is jambutty, not JB, jam, Jambuttie or anything else so please do me the courtesy of addressing me as jambutty.
From now on, if anyone addresses me as anything other than jambutty I will be sorely tempted to adjust their Karma downwards a bit.

Right Jambutty calm down!

If you re-read what I posted the quotes were not from you but from Ianto, I know it was your original thread, but I was trying to explain to him not you.

Where was "This topic sucks"? it was in my post, it was meant to be a back lash, a funny against what I had posted, not you.

Spelling mistake I do apologise Marmalade,(erm spellchecker please), Jambutty.

I hope you give people the pleasure of knowing who you are, I would hate Ianto to call you a Coward!
If you look on that post, I did put a comment in,
Right, that is as close as you will ever get to an apology from me, because it is quite obvious that, you chose which part of that post, to comment on and which part to ignore or you would have read and understood that I was not meaning you and yet you paid enough attention to it to notice I had made a spelling mistake, Hmmm selective or what?

, (the spelling mistake was in the original that I have quoted not deliberate). The reason for that I thought, obvious, I wasn't including you.

Re: What’s a nice thread?
I am perfectly calm Less.
In any case who the heck are you to tell me to calm down? Are you my keeper? If I want to get irate I will do so if and when I choose and I don’t welcome patronising comments.
I’m not even going to waste my time arguing with you as to who stated what other than the following.
Look at your post #10. At the end is a smiley holding a banner and moving it up and down. The banner quite clearly reads “THIS TOPIC SUCKS!”
Now let me see - the word “topic” means the subject being discussed not just your post.
As one eminent Scottish judge stated during a summing up of the case about a notice on the Forth Toll Bridge, “A notice should state what it means and mean what it states.”
Not having the ability to read people’s minds I read “THIS TOPIC SUCKS!” to mean just that. There can be no other interpretation in spite of your puerile attempt to laugh it off.
Much obliged WillowTheWisp and I am aware that many members know each other in real life and I actually know and have met two members. Indeed some are related.
Have some Karma AccyJay to compensate for your fluctuating levels.

Re: What’s a nice thread?
It seems that we have three playground bullies on this forum. As usual they didn’t leave their name when awarding me some negative Karma.
here is some negative karma, just for the heck of it!
Much obliged coward. Come back with your user name if you have the guts.
You really are an arsehole JB. Yes I said JB, is it really that important if someone shortens your name. Grow up and get a life you sad little person.
If the best that you can do is call me names and not have the moral fibre to put your name to it, then the only sad person around here is yourself. At pushing 70 I hardly need to grow up. Now have you any more toys that you want to throw out of your pram?
You also come back with your user name if you have the guts or are you a spineless dork?
relax jb, we are all friendly here and all call each other by shortened names! as if your name is actually jambutty!!!!
I agree most of the forum members are friendly but real friends use their friend’s proper name. I’ll let you into a tiny secret. During the 13 years that I served in the Royal Navy I was jambutty to my shipmates mainly because I would prefer a jam buttie to the tasteless slop they called meals. It’s a good job no one latched onto my liking for Wagon Wheels. The nickname stuck in civvy street and I used it as my handle in the days of CB and have now used jambutty on the Internet for the last 10 years or so. So I guess my user name is jambutty although my real name is James Buckley. Imagine trying to log in somewhere with JB or jambuttie, or jam or whatever. I wouldn’t get very far.
I’ll let you into another secret. Not calling someone by their name is a form of bullying and a puerile way of trying to establish a pseudo superiority over the other person.

Re: What’s a nice thread?
:engsmil: No prizes for guesing who perule is jambutty I know full well this answer will attract your infantile karma, the whole site is stifled, members dare not raise one for fear of having 'nasty things' said about them.
I thought "cake" was the favourite food in the navy, but then again im usually wrong.
