I would say it was you misreading a statement and throwing your toys out of the pram that caused it actually, but you did meet CL's 3 rules:
CL Rule #1 = Passing opinion off as fact:
CL Rule #2 = Diverting Attention:Quote:

Right I've been told I went too far with Tri-mind, and that I'm being nasty. The point is though, Tri-mind on another thread asked for people to be honest in their opinions on mental health issues, even if they were unpopular.
So when he wrote a condescending piece on the previous post, he has opened himself up for criticism. He did give me permission though, and all I'm saying is his mental health issues are possibly an excuse for his ridiculous post.
Rise above it....why not be nice to one another?

I miss Gaz. He returned as comrade gaz then i am fairly sure he came back again under another userneme. Whatever happened to him? Is he still out there in deepest Yorkshire delivering letters and scattering red bands all over the countryside?Quote:

It's been a strange time for this forum. Up till now I've very much of the view that I won't post anything in those confrontational threads because I'm not interested. Live and let live, stay out of it, let them get on with it etc etc
But it seems to have spread across a number of threads and has become a feature of this forum, something that a newcomer would readily see and see as prominent. It may even be seen as representative, despite mainly involving a small number of people.
I'm not suggesting anyone has tried to take over the forum or that the forum should not be the home of some good debates, be they fellrunning debates or otherwise, but I'm personally really tired of this spat between CL and TH popping up/being referenced across many threads in this forum. I'm also worried that others are wading in and the negative vibe is spreading.
Noone's done anything wrong, but seriously, please can you two just drop it? Argue about things, stuff, opinions if you like, but it's turned into a series of personal character assassinations and insults and it's getting very tiresome. CL and TH are both clever guys that probably aren't used to losing arguments - hence the deeply unpleasant stalemate we now see.
So chaps, please, just stop the bitching and oneupmanship and allow the fellrunners forum to be just that. Let it go and agree to differ. Otherwise, rather than impressing people with your repostes, you'll drive them away. If the forum does continue to be an ego-fest, I'll certainly start logging in less and less.
Try looking at threads like this through the eyes of a newcomer to the forum logging on for the first time this morning.
How long would it take for them to say to themselves 'What a bag of shite this forum is' and leave, probably for good
Well done for saying in a few short words what it took me several paragraphs to say! :) :)
I agree entirely Tony. I just can't see the point in all of this? It would be a nicer place if compliments and positives could be given instead of slanderings! We are all here because we love a common subject....let's appreciate what we have got and respect each others feelings.Quote:

Have your tried eightlane, Letsrun or (:eek:) runnersworld?
I can usually see some logic and thought going in to all the arguments on here.
Just to give you a taste of the brain cells in action on eightlane, this is on the Ribble Valley 10K thread
Southwell 10K is a better and faster course on the 28th... Looks like ribble is full of dicks running
An eloquent and well made point eh?
Don't know on second sentence but Southwell is very fast, nearest it comes to a hill is the bump of a bridge going over a river, a rise of at least 1 metre(:eek:) Does suit fellrunners though as it is straightout, turn around and run back. Did about 43mins last year and doing it again. Great fun, can't wait. And yes, I am doing it again.....Quote:

The debate on this forum is generally mature and sensible, at times controvertial, but at the very least interesting.
I think this forum is excellent.
This is a friendly interesting informative forum with loads of character and characters.
It's also very welcoming and inclusive.
There are other sort of related forums which I no longer bother with (eg Fetch, Runners Woe, Outdoors Magic)where people give and take offence with readiness and in some cases form little cliques which ignore or are hostile to others.
No this is a cracking refuge in the e-wilderness and the odd spat or teddy throw is to be expected and, er, tolerated
Carry on!
You betcha;)Quote:

To the forumite concerned, I think you're going to the IOM for the Easter Athletics festival? I'll buy you a beer to make up for it.
Nice one! PS I've been insulted by better men than you!Quote:

Do I have to be on Facebook to be insulted?
Yep, nothing to see here if you're not on Facebook.Quote:
