Yeah, well I don't want people seeing me wave at the naked mad lady standing at her window, they might think I'm a customer!
There may be a certain amount of truth to that, but it doesn't seem to be a problem for many other forums I use. This place used to attract plenty of younger posters in the past but without a doubt the tone has changed over the years. Posters have been increasingly permitted to be more hostile and condescending towards them, I can understand why they'd be put off.
So you think young people are just too sensitive to engage in a lively bulletin board?
This place has been far, far ruder in the past, and we didn't have much trouble attracting posters of all ages then, but what has changed is the Internet, and we're no longer one of the few places people can post up their thoughts, thanks to Facebook, Twitter etc.
I think there's a lot of "I'm more Brixton than you" going on here of late, and "how dare you come in to our community and comment on it"....
Funnily enough the last time I noticed this was when I got the "I'm more Brixton than you" treatment from, er, RaverDrew.
Plenty of rubbish being spouted on this thread.
Just to balance this nonsense notion that every new poster ends up having to endure some kind of baptism by fire: http://www.urban75.net/vbulletin/threads/352062-New-Mums-and-Babies

oh get a grip you muppet
If you're embarrassed, you'd do better to shut up really but I'm not surprised you haven't. Smarts you haven't got.
That's hardly "hostile" though, is it?And three minutes later... http://www.urban75.net/vbulletin/th...and-Babies?p=11927622&viewfull=1#post11927622
It's a fucking pain in the arse when people are unnecessarily rude to new posters and I really wish it would stop.Agreed, though his timing was impeccable you'd have to admit
Embarrassed about what exactly ?
Have you actually got anything useful to add to this thread ? Or are you just going to continue following me about because I upset you on another thread many months ago. It doesn't take a smart person to work out your pathetic motivation.
Your posts aimed towards me have become increasingly creepy and weird. A fair reflection of your true self I'd imagine.
You idiotAh well, 'tis just a storm in a tea cup. And your chum shut up her silly talk so fair play to her.
You idiot
Please don't fan the flames. Please.
Might have known your daft threat to flounce was hot air.
Still demanding apologies?
Well I'd have been embarrassed to be slagging off people for being "more Brixton than you" when that's exactly what you were doing a few weeks back. But you are obviously made of sterner stuff - or just don't care about being utterly inconsistent.

co-op said:I've probably lived in Stockwell longer than most people on these boards...
Wow, you really are a tedious little div.
Ok, since you're so obsessed with this matter, the only person going on about being "more Brixton than you" or similar was yourself in this exact post. http://www.urban75.net/vbulletin/th...-Stockwell?p=11645025&viewfull=1#post11645025
Now do you really wanna carry on making a complete arse of yourself ? or are you gonna shut the fuck up and stop acting like a weirdo who drags up old arguments.
It's truly fucking pathetic and actually pretty disturbed that you seem to hold such a grudge over an old thread, if anyone should be embarrassed it's yourself.
Let it go, it'll do you good.
More important, how much does Sophie pay her cleaner?
Have you understood that I spoke about how long I lived in Stockwell because you were telling me that I didn't know what was going on there?
He actually said 'he was more Stockwell' didn't he????
