I had high hopes that we could avoid having to lock this thread. I left this forum and this thread on the weekend thinking that we'd all had our 2c and we'd all had a chance to have a whinge and get it out of the system and move on. But again you lot have met my expectations of your inability to indulge in what to me is a basic human attribute - self-control.

Just couldn't let it go and walk away, could you? Chewy, Cerek, and Timber, you guys all need to settle down. Don't bother PMing me justifying your positions in this particular debate - in this particular case I'm not interested in hearing whose fault it supposedly was. I don't care about which of you is feeling persecuted as I'm sure you're all feeling persecuted. All I care about right now is the fact that we YET AGAIN have a thread spiraling downwards, for whatever reason, which has to be closed because the participants' incapability to control their own actions in posting to it. All you're doing is proving to me that as a group you're not mature and responsible enough to regulate and moderate yourselves and you need a nanny to look after you and tell you to stop throwing stones at each other. You want to be treated like adults and have a forum where you're given the freedom to express your opinions? Well bloody well act like adults and take some responsibility for what this forum is coming to, and DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

I'm the coolest and most laid-back of people, but sometimes you guys IRRITATE the living shyzen out of me at how you can't seem to be able to deal with each other in a civilised manner. I don't give a flying frazzoo if you don't like each other, this isn't a dating service - but I expect you to be able to resolve issues like adults, not like 3yos who have to be told what to do. Bloody hell it's not that hard is it?

Disappointed fellas. Please remember yourselves and your ages next time.
