I think that with the new "old" members of TV who have personal grudges with each other and keep bringing up the same shite over and over again that maybe DD should setup a separate room for them or at least a thread where tehy can put their TV based stuff at each other into rather than starting threads about it all the time.
Good idea or crap idea?
We're talking about ladyboys - not Thai visa
The fact that the earlier membership here have nowt to start topics about is your own fault.*
*Apart from poncy topics like "Oooh, shall I leave this Forum"
Probably the crapest idea I've ever heard.
What you really want is to segregate the TV'ers from the rest, a kind of apartheid !
Why not.
You all appear to have a bonme to pick with each other so why not do it somewhere else and post quality threads here.
I liked the "what famous movies have'nt you seen" thread, was thinking about opening a "what good books have'nt you read" threadQuote:

Eg the one member we're currently hounding is someone we're trying to encourage to do something creative and useful, instead of merely spouting yak yak about how gifted he is.
We've supported him in the past, given him a handful of leads and contacts. But he's still diverting creative energy largely into crappywebforums.com
There's no excuse for it, no clever rhetoric to disguise it.
Just pick a side and join in( or like me stay in the middle and just stir things up a bit now and again), mabye use PM's to recrute ex TV members into the flamewars here, as soon as you know it well all be one big happy familyQuote:

As pointed out by many wiser and less blinkered than myself, I have stupidly allowed you to use me as a source for your tabloidesque online mockery and a diversion from your own katoey infactuation which you just can't let go, it's all you ever go on about - katoey's, gays and now underage girls - though you can't use me as a pawn for the latter.
'Bored at home with wife and kids Blake? Me too! ...Let's invite Scampy out, we'll pay for his drinks, get him pissed and he'll do or say something we can take the piss out of on the forum, cause that's the type of mates we are and thankfully, he has too much faith in people to see that'.
It's a safe bet that having learned from my lesson we will have no further 'meet ups' (we have only met a couple of times I should add) because you now have nothing to gain from it.
Don't use 'Oh we've tried to help him' as an excuse, because that's just pathetic. I am working full time in China on 350 UKP a week for the next 7 months as well as writing a monthly column, I still have a long way to where I want to be but it will all fall into place and I'm sure you do have potential contacts but why would I want to use them, how could I trust you and more's the point - why would you want to help me?
If we were all at school, which given both aspects of our imaturity we easily could be, then you would be the bully and I would be the poor sucker who just wanted to be liked.
Not once have we had a serious conversation and not once have you given me the oppertunity because you couldn't care less. I'm nothing more than a jester in your eyes and when regarded as such I have no motivation to prove otherwise, especially if the drinks are free.
"we'll pay for his drinks"
Thats never been a motive,merely a consequence.
Your troublesome bladder at cheque-bin time has been noted by urologist and resident moneybags Dr Blake 7.
To answer the question in title: No we shouldn't, but it seems we do.
Why anyone would want to pick on or bully anyone is beyond me and should I hope be beyond anyone mature enough to leave all that shit behind to live in Asia.
Much as I act it, I'm no fool - and when I can see genuine companionship between the lines then I will put my hand in my pocket as Blake will testify from our last meeting.... Sure it isn't much, but considering the wealth ratio plus the fact that it is I who have been invited out - it is my way of doing my bit.
I love these shit flinging topics ! :D
Technically, aren't we flaming the handle here rather than the man.
What exactly here is he taking so personally?
The fact is, Moog doesn't actually like me (which is fine, not everyone will do) - BUT, I could maybe see that before he even could so what kind of mug would I have been (In my fiscal position at the time) to get the guy a drink?
It's a shame because I met him with an open mind, as I do everyone, and we have simiar interests.
(And I don't mean katoeys!)
He could have been a good contact and friend had he shown a little more forum decorum. I may not have much to offer but decency and loyalty I do, what's more they don't cost a thing.
The same online (personal) rubbish I have been taking from you for quite some time.Quote:

Look, I have never been one to bear a grudge but I have had enough of the uninvited comments you derail my topics with, weather or not I ask for them.
If you ever gave a flying fuck about me as a person, have an ounce of respect, regret or any inclination whatsoever to be associated with me socially, then send an email and we'll clear this up.
What i'm simply been trying to establish in various of your anecdotes is. Are you telling the truth or not? Given you've built a reputation on transparency.
<I freely admit that everything I write on most topics, especially sexual ones, is complete and utter bollocks>
You've reacted like some prima donna, saying you're being bullied.
Next time I hear negative comments from others, I can tell them to stop lying compulsively about you.
As for aggressive criticism - if you want to succeed in film, you better damn well get used to it, because thats the business. If it upsets you, choose another career.
Who cares? It's not anybody's business.Quote:

Hang on, YOU'RE the one acting like a tabliod journo with a potential scandal and treating me like a celebrity and YOU'RE the one who has countlessly refered to me as 'The Peoples Champ'... As I understand it you were a journalist and therefore you are a bully of sorts, let it go.Quote:

????? What comments between 'friends out on the town' are relevant to the public online arena?Quote:
negative comments from others
Is that the latest excuse?Quote:

This is practice?
Well you are a Celebrity and therefore need to be forensically examined.
...using some sort of illuminated probe.
So you say Moogy, you have only contributed to all the other bullshit I've had to put up with from other members who think that I think I'm some kind of online celebrity!Quote:

Of course I am vulnerable, you have abused that and I have a right to be pissed off about it.
Be decent and nice to people, buying drinks don't mean shit.
"I'm just The Gentleman Scamp "
You're a perfectly normal bloke called C******* who has allowed this "Scampy" thing grow to ludicrous proportions to the point where the boundaries have become fuzzy.
I think the Moog still has my view that it is just the internet and it doesn't really matter what people think.
Mate I've got to say I think you put too much of yourself into TGS and blur the boundries between forums and real life. Ok you've had a complicated life.....who has'nt!Quote:

In the past, he used to start 'my poo has black bits in it' threads to satisfy our curiousity.Quote:

Exactly. If you make your life an open box and plaster it all over the net, then you are gonna get this sort of attention.Quote:

You had promised to buy Eye of Sauron drinks.
Reminds me of those bars in Ireland where some English pillock comes in and starts flashing the cash, and the Fenian whisper goes round.
"Gather round boys, we've found one"
