Can this ******* thing be locked?
I like a debate as much (probably more :augie ) than anyone and wind ups are the staple food of internet life at times.
Lets be quite blunt here and have a look at those involved,
I've no ideas how often Bat is on the site but his postings are not that frequent, Ernie didnt get notice he was "turning red" and Bat doesnt always answer questions promptly if at all. (I've got one pending I can think of from 3 months ago
) so I can see that side of things
Ernie on the other hand is just as much to blame for this rubbish by banging on about it. Sorry Ernie you seem a decent bloke from all accounts but either put up or shut up and stop whinging on so I can see why Bat cant be arsed with him.
I will say Ernie that Bat is more tolerant then me, you would have found your IP blocked by now if I'd been in his shoes.
I agree with Jim to a degree about not replying but that wont work in this case because theres at least one persistant protagonist.
So no ones perfect and thats what makes the world go round but hey............this thread is tedious please change the bloody thing.
