Right. There has been a fair amount of nastiness on this forum and it ends here.

When I started here this place was pretty much dead, with people coming here more to get a bit of help rather than chat. I have seen (and hopefully helped) the web forum develop into a small community.

We have realised that many of us have a lot in common, and between us we have a wide range of skills that has got to a point where SR are sponsoring us to set up a website offering help.

Though we are all varied in our backgrounds and we all have different ways of assessing and dealing with issues, we must work as a team now more than ever instead of being at eachothers throats about minor issues. We all have specialist skills that will make this site a success and rather than argue on who does something better, learn from the other person and develop your skills accordingly.

As I see it, for this site of ours to be a true success, we must forget about minor issues, personal grudges, "mine's better than yours", "my dads harder than yours" and so on. Out of all the forums on this site this is the one that for me feels like it has the tightest group, and I feel like a member rather than a user. I'd like to see it kept that way.

Can't we all just get along? :)

Nuh...

I agree I'm more coding than design but I can put together some nice stuff occasionally. I've never had a single piece of design "training" other than what I learn in Graphics Products at school.

Tyla, you can't run a decent site without some form of coding behind it. Well, you can but it would be *very* complicated. What's wrong with PHP?

Well, I'm a designer AND

Actually I do both!! So I'm a "Designing Codemonkey!!"
Though I must say... your "design" skills are a little "unrefined" shall we say!!

Anyway, enough of this bantering, I'm fed up with it and bored. I'm not here for a "slap" session, I'm here to share advice, ideas and tricks... To be honest I really couln't care about who can do what nor how wonderfull the mighty *cough* Turbonutters *cough* "my PHP site" does...

I get paid to build sites for muti-million user communities. And as well as learning some trick from some people on here, I wanted to share my knowledge with people who wanted or are interested in knowing how to do certain things etc, this place isn;t a popularity contest and if this place continues to be use for such a thing, then it's aims are flawed and ruined...

Sorry, It wsnt about anyone in particular, and it wasnt meant to be so serious, it just came out that way.

It's just not nice to see it happen, thats all. No offence meant to anyone and all...

I think it was more of a general observation about the way this chat room has evolved recently... Though we shall ahve to ask Slave for a definate set of examples!!
