A comment I hear quite often that is and to be honest I am quite bored of it. Give the guy a chance.....I mean how many of you have actually tried to get to know him? I bet the number isn't that high. Stereotyping someone just because you don't happen to like what he posts on the forums? Is that right? Certainly not.

Okay, maybe some of his topics are a bit worthless....I want to make that clear that I to agree. Scott, you shouldn't post so many topics in short spaces of time. Also they should be slightly longer mate. I am not having a go, more giving you osme guidance. The members here tend to hold grudges I suppose, make a bad impression and that will hang over you for a long time.

Just have a think people....have you ever called him stupid? Had a laugh at him because you didn't like his post? If you have you should be ashamed. No one deserves this. Its not fair...everyone is equal..no one is different and because of this we should all be treated equally. Not ridiculed because you don't like what they write. What I am tyring to say is you should give him a chance.

If worst comes to worst I am happy to tell him/you what would help to make people like you more, but step one would have to be people giving Scott a chance. Hes not a bad guy. I talked to him on MSN and he seems quite nice. Nothing like I first thought. A sign of me doing what I am trying to make no one else do. Don't hate someone because someone else may....give them a chance...everyone deserves a chance.

Scott hasn't mentioned this, but he is in college and he gets bullied there.....just have a think what this would be like, being bullied. People come on the internet with expectations. They don't expect to be "bullied" here...why should they? I am not trying to get sympaphy for Scott, but being hated here isn't exactly doing much for his confidence.

Hes like us all....we all are. We all get a chance, give Scott his and forget what you thought. Give the guy a chance. Speak to him on MSN.....make an effort.

But you don't have to lie, just don't say anything.

But I DO agree with the equal respect for topics. If I write a topic which is crap, then I would hope people to tell me so. And tell me why.

I will try and read all topics by everyone, as long as I have the time.

"Oh yes, good point, lovely."

I have no intention of lying so someone else can get the false impression they're good at something.

Yep, I completely agree with this topic, there should be no class levels in these forums, and no-one is better than anyone else. Any bullying I see will result in bannings. For God's sake, give new people a chance, they aren't all Albert Einstein you know. If you think a topic is crap then think it to yourself, there's no need to publicly humiliate someone.

I have recently decided that everyone needs to have a chance...maybe even FFF if he has MSN, but what really matters is that I don't want to see anyone being insulted here.

Thanks for the vte by the way NG.

What happens if your not around at the same time as him?
I'd try to make an effort to get to know people if they were around to talk with me.
