This helps in how I relate then to posts  There will always be a very few members who get on my wick, but that is the same as people in the outside world, you just can't gel with everyone as there will always be those clashes with some, but hopefully can a majority of them. |
I agree Suze,really strong and enlightening post, I was a Ben supporter and got some jjames people getting at me but that was part of the debate as you say.
You are right in your statement as to getting used to the way posters post their comments, it takes time to work out where they are coming from and how they mean things.I try to do that and think in the main I manage to.
