BB, with respect, that post would have been better posted completely separately rather than as a reply to my post since I have never used, nor condoned the use of, the word trolling!
What is clear, to me, and its a purely personal opinion, is that the constant repetitive carping about the club and, in particular, this forum, is starting to resurrect the sort of bad feeling seen so often in the early days of CT's previous incarnation.
All very sad, I think.

Ever heard of "irony" BB?
My final sentence was a word for word quote of one of the posters who used the, in my opinion, rather patronising expression I referred to!
I don't want things both ways - I'd prefer it if all posts were respectful and avoided explicit or, even worse, implicit insults. As I said just now, it simply leads to the sort of bad feeling we used to see in the early days of CT, possibly before you joined. Take my word for it, it wasn't pleasant!

I am an Ardent Supporter of Scottish Rugby, The Scottish landscapes and The Scottish people. I do not consider that as Patronising. In fact I am proud to be those things.
You can call me an ardent supporter any time you like and I would treat it as a compliment.
Cheers...........................K

Ah, thank you for clearing that up, K. You were using that expression in an entirely complimentary way. That's good and I wish eveyone was so clearly and unequivocally respectful of those with the opposite view to their own.
Well done you! Smiley smiley.

That's surprising K, you called yourself non-partisan re Scottish Rugby on another thread, now you're an ardent supporter of Scottish Rugby-odd. You should be driven by principles not what suits you at that moment, that or take up Politics

Someone correct me if I am wrong but I seem to remember many people complaining about the old forum which worked well enough as this one does for me. Is this not a case of be careful what you wish for?

Absolutely right MF. The folk complaining about this site are pretty much the same as those who spent so much energy complaining about the old one! At the end of the day, I think any reasonable view would be that it's just a forum and certainly not worth all the angst some seem to experience.
The most important role of the CC is surely to maintain it's sites as a welcoming place for all members and to support CL owners in providing the facilities so many of us enjoy. Put beside that the forum is a relatively unimportant factor.

BB, never let fact stand in the way of your posts eh? accusations of 'trolling you wrote
Please find where I or anyone else has accused anyone of trolling? Let me save you the trouble;
It's getting to be troll like behaviour scattered all over the place. (note the getting to be)
Who is being accused?
Like you I think they like complaining and trolling, no other explanation fits? does it? (Please note the no other explanation fits and question mark)
So who is being accused?

I find the bickering among members somewhat bemusing. Over the past week the availability of "new posts" information has appeared and disappeared with almost clockwork regularity. The apparent inability to code properly for cookies to present this information suggests to me that the team responsible for this website are less than competent.
Whether the provision of a forum is important or not is not relevant. It is the competence of the people employed by CC to perform a particular task that is the issue here. Would we be happy if those responsible for financial matters showed a similar level of incompetence?

Well said BB and CY....sadly I think many members assume that this site is the industry standard and don't actually use other forums.
I too have begged to differ with the few who don't actually know what Trolling is but get fairly close!
