    Default General Chat is not the fun place it used to be .....

    ... and I applaud the longer established members who are trying to keep the place sane. There are things being said that are childish, intimidating, insulting and stupid and this is spoiling the 'harmless fluffyness' that was once the E-I boards. There are a few posters who are simply intent on wrecking the place with their 'keyboard bravery' of late and I think its a shame. Behind this forum there are people who have to earn a living from its contents and if the nonsense that is current is allowed to take over then E-I is on a slippery slope.

    If you post here simply to cause trouble then just fuck off and go join Fianna Fail. You will be welcome there amongst the country's biggest assholes.

    Thank you.

    Well said

    As I said to you earlier, this is the case and its a shame. I really don't feel like talking at the moment, because you either get attacked, dragged into something or misinterpreted. There is a difference between banter and bullying.

    Name who you think are guilty.

    I am new and I know I am not alot of peoples cup of tea, but I do not mean to be a disruptive element!

    I think that there are plenty of posters 1000 plus who are far more disruptive than the newer ones!

    While in some ways I agree with the sentiment I do not think it can be reudced to a new vs old arguement!

    I dont think Monkey is pitching the new against the old here Danny, He is probably referring to a certain element that seem intent on disruptive divilment. Most of the newbies on here are great fun, yoursef included....
