I'm guilty of lurking rather than posting,for many of the reasons stated above.I got involved in one or two dog fights with retards,people who do not want a reasonable discussion,but just find it funny to insult and denigrate people with more experience of life,both Military and Civil,than their youth could understand.The fun and banter has gone,replaced by drivel and dross,which is a great pity.

OOH! GET HER!

:lol:

I think its stirred up some general feelings and good effort on Gaz for finally saying something.

I LOVE YOU TOO MATE!

I also note that some long term members who have lurked of late, without any problems in doing so from this callsign, have also inputed. Draw your own conclusions.

SEEN!

I enjoy this place and like any relationship it has its ups and downs. When its down we should say why, even if it only achieves a clearing of the throat and a moving on. Least an effort has been made.

As for Modding alone Wholley, I think your out of order there pal, ok some Mods do more than most, but effort is made.

STEADY ON LOVE! NO NEED FOR MOD HANDBAGS!
Anyway lets now start building on the positives, wheres that 19 yr old fily got to and has she cracked
pressups yet? :P
I DON'T THINK SHE'S PRESSED CRACKUPS YET MATE!

ANYWAY DON'T REALLY MATTER YOU BEING GAY AN ALL!

note my genorousity with the L's there mate!!

I am a re-joiner under a different name, coz I couldn't remember my old log-in info. Like N-H, I have found a lot of experts displaying their book/internet knowledge to one and all on here. There is even an ex-national serviceman advising(sic) posters on current military tactics,kit and weapons. oh hum! I think I will just stick with popping in now and a again for a read
Shame really it used to br such an excellent site.

Shall we all take your word as gospel then GOS44?? You sound so convincing n’all……….. :roll:

.I mean, there’s so many Walts and wanabees out there, just waiting to be ‘outed’……………

Who knows these days if those who say they used to be such ‘regular contributors’, did actually put finger to keyboard and actually DO something so CONSTRUCTIVE as to put a sentence together……… (it’s a fekin start, next stage is thinking about including something ‘green’ in the post….. )

You missed a bit, …. “and fekin’ having a moan…?? “Heard of internet trolling by any chance?? Howsabout you share your superior knowledge and get this site back to the site that you remember with such fondness?

Sitting on the sidelines and whingeing about how it’s not like it was in your day is no fekin good. POST SOMETHING fffs!!!

“Web sites aren’t like they were when I was a lad” is very un-interesting BTW…………. WOT WAS IT LIKE THEN?? Green text flashing on a black background no doubt, with your massive 62k of memory to play with………….

Reading and weeping is frustrating for you surely??! Commit something to the forum so that we can ‘read and comment’/’read and admire’ is a MUCH better position surely…. We might actually think you’re not just any old ‘re-joiner wannabe’ and listen with interest to your trivial posts………….

Might actually warrant a sensible post rather than p*ss taking rant ……………. (tosspot...)

GOS44....I think that I am the National Serviceman that you are referring too and yes I may have been out of the Army for a long while but in the last seven years I have been invited back to my old Regiment about five times and have handled all the latest weapons, and I have even done some training with them. Yes i will agree I don't know it all but forums are for discussions and if I make an error then there should be enough people on here to correct me.

I hope you will be buying your mother some flowers for helping you with such a long post. Now why don't you go and find some newbies that you can bully.

But you still found it necessary to defend what I said? All that you have achieved is to draw attention to yourself....bad tactics!, very bad tactics!
