the good old days

[danchip]

when i first joined AB you could come on here ask a question and get a sensible answer from very helpful pleasent ABers

these days you post a question and aswell as the helpful ones answering you get a whole load of abuse from green newbies and then we have the nebies who have infiltrated the site purely to advertise silly loans etc

oh for the good old days to return

[4getmenot]

does that chip stand for on your shoulder? lol More and more people come on here now so its likely you will get trolls, some I find quite funny but there are others that can try and be quite hurtful, just ignore them

[pastafreak]

AB is a bit like the sales......you have to have patience,and the desire to seperate the good from the bad. But you just may end up with some gems!!

[joggerjayne]

Reading between the lines, I think you are looking for a loan.

Might I recommend ...

... JayneLoans Ltd.

You can borrow up to �50, at the usual extortionate loan shark rates.

All loans are sent to you under discreet, plain cover, or handed to you in a brown paper bag if you live in the Brighton area and you can get down to the pier.

I'm with RoaldoM on thos one.

Given the choice btween a free Internet, with all the wonderful possibilities, and the utter numpties who trample alll over it with their nonsense, and a censored Internet, which would be far more tedious, I will go with the former.

As the 'eldser statesman' of the AB, I have seen all sorts of stupidity, but the overall sense, compassion and maturity of the majority of contributors overides that every time, and in my view, is an acceptable price to pay for the freedom of thought and expression that we all enjoy.

The Good Old Days was a popular BBC television light entertainment programme which ran from 1953 to 1983.

It was recorded live at the Leeds City Varieties and recreated an authentic atmosphere of the Victorian�Edwardian music hall with songs and sketches of the era performed by present-day performers in the style of the original artistes.

The audience dressed in period costume and joined in the singing, especially the singing of Down at the Old Bull and Bush which closed the show. The show was compered by Leonard Sachs who introduced the acts. In the course of its run it featured about 2000 artists

Am I right ?
I'm not wrong !

lol ;)

Sadly Danchip , a lot of these trolLs are from THE GOOD OLD DAYS.

Not the tv programme that johnny so correctly concisely mentioned , but some are long standing members , which im sure the editor is well aware of.
Their use of proxy ips to try and disguise themselves doesnt pull the wool over anyones eyes.


Sorry to burst your bubble Danchip.

But back in the day people still got sick , people still died and people were still arseh0les too.


Ab is no different from it ever was , and i think Andy put the exact same point across, though a bit more eloquently and frillier than i have.

DID THAT HELP ?�?

[dot.hawkes]

can you actually post links here to help out those people like myself who wear rose tinted specs and overlook the eejits accidentally on purpose?

[legendis.god]

Dotty im sure you know well of the BABYBOW character whos a long running member and has had a a pop at most folk over the years.

Well?


Thats merely one example of course.
But im sure youre not as green as youre making out.

Tsk tsk .

[dot.hawkes]

nope, not been green for several years now, anyway, i thought danchip was on about other categories, not CB.

I did notice that babybow decided they were a 'vetinary nurse', which seemed rather peculiar.

[legendis.god]

Very funny.Especially if you use the search facility.Not a single veterinary reference on here from it since before this year when it turned on tv , saw vets hospital and decided it was a vets nurse.

lol

The thing is dot if they do it here then when theyre bored they will indeed be in other sections too.

some of the TRUE stories ive read in family really are sad , if you think that there willbe some degree of fantasy in amongst the true stories.

Andy is saying similr to me.

Hes just a bit more nice


obviously


and dot i know that youre well aware there are people who must look at the reflection in the pc screen adn ask themselves who they are.

very confusing im sure


lol
