The chat threads can seem very cliquey ( yes i mentioned the word clique after numerous other members had already done in the thread before me) and unwelcoming which you yourself have just proven at the same time as rubbishing those claims.
I also dont get the connection you try to make with some people saying they feel left out on the forum and me telling people to 'piss off' which btw i would never post to anyone that i wasnt friendly with or who never knew how to take my humour because believe or not yes i also have people i get on with and have a laugh with just as the other mods do, we are afterall members of this forum too..

But as lots of people in here have pointed out, including other mods, it's more a case of new people settling in than deliberately being ignored. It's not a conscious thing that is ever done. Every single member that has ever posted anywhere on this forum was probably "ignored" for a bit, when they first started, even you.
And exactly - you do it to people you get on with, which is exactly the same thing that happens in the chat thread with a number of people that post in there, so I don't really understand why you brought it up, unless you're implying that established members having banter like that with one another is somehow off putting to people that don't post in there as often? Which, again, is something you say you do to the people you get on with on here? It's surely no different.
