I'm another that has a soft spot for this channel, so I'm hoping whatever is planned helps improve things for them in the long run.

Hardly old boy, but then I'm not about to get into a dialogue with every Tom, Dick or Harry furious with Old Bob that he's not providing to his personal peccadilo. Too many fake breasts! Not enough up-skirts! No Mongolian girls! Where's the skateboarding nuns?

I do have a channel to run y'know. ALL the feedback is read and considered and appreciated. I bloody well certainly can handle an honest opinion but rather than indulge everyone I disagree with or hand out a pat 'yes dear' I just show gratitude where gratitude is required. Perhaps you would have me thank those who have been downright personal too?

No. I'd rather have some constructive criticism than somebody, how did you put it, 'blow smoke up my ass' any day of the week. It's simply a matter of manners and tone. I'm from an older generation you see? One that believes in punctuation, the dictionary and that a gentleman should stand up when a lady enters the room. I also thank people for their good manners, and one thing this generation seems to consider acceptable is the dreadful convention of leaving their manners to one side when writing anything negative. In my humble opinion dear chap, it should be precisely the opposite to this. It is when one has his dagger out that he should be particularly careful with the old p's and q's, do you not find?

So in short, I'll take all of your notes on board, and glad to hear 'em I am too. But I will use my thank you button as and where I bloody well wish and not be judged upon it by you 'orrible lot.

There, I got quite riled there for a moment, I may have to thrash a boffin to sooth my nerves.

Your old chum,

Bob Paradiso Esq.

Isn't that what the thanks system is for?

I dont see why the rules have to change when a girl posts on the forum?...

[...] yet don't seem to allow people the freedom to say what they want or click the fucking "thanks" button if they happen to agree with a post!

It is, yes, but it's not why the fanboys use it.

So I suppose this is why when a babe comes on here and posts something as inane as "You guys are great!" or some such crap, she receives a dozen thanks withing 30 seconds? Yes, you're right, the reason they get all these thanks is because of the highly intellectual and thought-provoking contributions they make. Of course it has nothing to do with arse-licking fanboys
