Locked threads

[flighty]

I am becoming more and more pissed off with locked threads.

Can someone please explain to me why Ria's last thread was locked and why she has found it necessary to re-join?

Has she been binned? If so, why and by whom?

Jayne.

Its because she has got a massive chip on her shoulder and feels it necessary to dig up old threads in search of an argument.

[Hyperlithe]

Actually she had a pretty valid point.
I'm agreeing with Steve on this one.

[Wholley]

Ho-Hum.
Mods yelling at each other on an open forum.
I should have seen this coming.
Lets keep the bitching to ourselves.
JFYI Ria was not binned she just decided to re-invent herself.

Did I???
I think you'll find I'm just the same stubborn old cow as before, just on another Forum.
Didn't know I couldn't join both?
Thought this one might be better for asking TA related questions on??
Mfat seems to be mainly school-boys wanting to join.

No reason why old threads can't re-surface IMO. Newbies are told to "use the Search button!!" when they post a question that's been asked a few too many times before. But when they've actually done that and still have a question to ask, why can't they ASK it?? This is a 'discussion board' after all, not a fekin library.....

On any forum ive visited it is to do with forum etiquette. Like an unwritten rule, much like newbies using not using the search function before asking a question that has been answered numerous times or not publishing PM's that people have sent you in good faith. But lets not get started on that one again .

So, if you see an old thread that interests you, & you want to ask a question about it, you ignore it, & waste space setting up another thread do you? Ok.
So perhaps my first post on here should have been something nice & safe & mind-numbingly boring like....
"Can the nice fit boys on here tell me how to do press-ups please, as I'm just a daft bird coming on here to flirt with them......."

But I chose to live a little dangerously, & asked Sandy an intelligent question I knew he probably wouldn't answer. No harm in asking.
Asking difficult questions is good.
Asking Sandy difficult questions is good, as no-one ever does.

Where?

Anybody has the right to ask any question, anybody has the right to respond to any question as they see fit within the rules of the forum.

Not all will agree with all questions or answers all of the time.

AS for asking Sandy difficult questions heres one....

If a train is travelling due east from London to Brighton and has a man on board with his fist up a girrafes arse, what time will the conductor sniff his finger?

Trick question? Does Doc mean what time does the conductor sniff the mans finger or what time does the conductor sniff his own finger? Is the man with his fist up a girrafes arse just a red herring? hhhhhmmmm!

What makes you more important than any of the other schoolboys (and girls) that post over on MFAT? Your posts strted off in good faith but to be honest Ria, you are very argumentative.

I never said I thought I was "more important" than anyone on Mfat.
I stated a fact.
I said Mfat has a lot of school-boys on it. (Who have never served.)
I've asked questions on Mfat & had responses from gobby 15 year olds, who were only responding to try & look cool, & impress the Mods by slagging me off.
I thought this site, with more serving military on board, may be of more use.
So you've asked me a question, & I've responded. Why does that make me argumentative? I'm just replying.

I know you are a decent & intelligent bloke, so can you not see what was going on on Mfat?
If I asked a difficult, slightly controversial question, I got hounded by muppets talking b*llocks. As I defended myself, & tried to explain, I'm "argumentative"!!

This is a discussion Forum.......I'm allowed to speak in response to a question! We all are.

thats easy he will sniff it at 21:50 cowboy time.

Paddy, you are getting your long necked african mammals and fish mixed up again. The diversionary tactic was actually the due east bit as in fact you would be heading due south-ish. Both the conductor and passenger were actually fingerless from a freak finger removal accident in Ipswish, they are infact brothers, but not to each other, one being a pre-op TV called sebastian.

Further points of clarification are the facts that they were not on a train at all, but a bus which was running late by approx 6 mins 34 secs, due to a rather serious gravy spillage on the M5 motorway just north of Birmingham. The police were on scene and reported to be in a bit of a pickle, so the gravy was also a red herring.

It was in fact Sunday, and the weather was dull, in contrast to the BBC Southern Counties weather report which forecast Sunny intervals and chips for tea.

Where the dyslexic panda dressed as a nun comes into it I have no idea.

Now enough sensible chat and back to the crap about women paras.
