Forum meet suggestion on the dark side
« on: August 20, 2014, 05:27:23 PM »
Someone had suggested a forum meet up.

Dawn posted this.
Quote
It was done before & people who met slated other members who didn't go - & some members who did go! One person made themselves the centre of attention & it supressed others talking to each other. It was horrible even though everyone pretended it was great.

Some people prefer posting something every now & again than meeting.

That isn't to say it might work with a different set of people

This reply had me and Our_Lass laughing.

shame I missed these they sound like a right laugh. I dare someone to arrange a social!

Wonder who Dawn meant ?

No Fly a big wooden spoon is better.
The last time I viewed there it was a shambles with so much falling out, not been on for quite awhile now and think I will stick to that.

I didn't find a problem with the last two forum meets I have attended with members on here. Neither did I notice anyone anyone making themselves the centre of attention. Both hubby and I enjoyed the chats and one or two units of wine.
We certainly wouldn't go if that was the case.

Maybe the people mentioned no longer post on here.

That's funny, I can't think of anyone, except her, that had a problem and didn't come to any more Xmas meets. Except omskirk, who sadly passed away a few years ago.
I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left.

I have to admit to viewing it on occasions - usually when I've nowt better to do - and it's out of curiosity to see who's ripping who to bits.

I'm never disappointed and it always seems to be a cauldron of heated 'debate'!

I don't think Dogboy had a problem - if he did he didn't bleat about it.

I didn't have a problem with anyone, the only problem I do have that stops me attending is arthritis of the spine. if I sit with no neck support for any length of time I'm in pain for the next couple of days.
