I want the old Arbtalk back....not the website but the ethos

Why don't folk read what they want to read and disregard the rest.

Because a man hears what he wants to hear...

Since we're paraphrasing Simon and Garfunkle...

I still carry the reminders of every comment that laid me down or cut me till I cried out, in anger and in shame

Fair enough, the forums full of "people talking without speaking" anyway

Tbh, if everyone stops posting comments that could be taken the wrong way arbtalk would get boring very very quickly....

What!, like in real life ya mean?

 

some bloke comes in the pub that you don't get along with, so you ignore him and carry on chatting with people you do get along with.

 

that would be far to difficult........

 

some folk seem to have either no sense of humour, or are made of sugar these days.

There's a difference between not getting along, and someone being a t wat and taking liberties. That's what I took from the OP. Didn't see where misconstrued humor, or over sensitivity were mentioned. Which is why I asked that he give names and examples. Get it out in the open.
