Anyone else agree?

Usually occurs whenever FM does something like this. You've got to laugh, though, bit of irony here as well... with the newbies agreeing that they should be treated better by missing the whole point... :0)

What would happen to a newbie if he started a topic with the title "I hate regulars". I don't really need to answer that now do I.

Some newbies can be a nuisance, but this type of topic is quite uncalled for. It just creates arguments, and while this can be amusing, they can get quite out of hand.

I can't help thinking some people don't quite 'get' my posts, sometimes...

Is this starting all over again?

WHY?

First of all Venom, learn how to spell the word.

Please, and do you know what it really means?

A New word.

Sarchasm: The gap between authors intended meaning, and the perceived meaning assumed by a particular individual.

I thought we'd got over this.
