Is there any reason why someone's come in here to insult me about what I supposedly smell like, because I really don't appreciate it, especially as I haven't done anything to deserve it. I'm not a pres cafe mod, I've not got involved in this petty little argument on either side, so why?

Not only that, but telling someone they smell of shit is about as childish as insults get. If you're going to insult people, at least leave the playground.

This is a typo and the numbers should be the other way around, right?

If you want the longest whoosh ever, well, let it whoosh on.

I merely bloody stated it was not to cause a flame war.

How about we just draw a line under this?

I'm so glad I shut TVLF.

Move on for crying out loud, this is getting boring.

This is the worst, most tedious thing I've had to deal with on a forum since Lee Bedwood and Paul Akinbola. Aren't there any admins around?

If the "whoosh" means it was meant to be a joke, then it's the worst joke ever and it makes absolutely no sense. "Let's tell someone I don't know they smell of cheese and shit"... hilarious. You do realise saying "I didn't want to say X" is pretty much the same as actually saying it as well, right? Wanting to move on because you've been called out for making bizarre, immature, offensive and unwarranted insults, it doesn't work that way I'm afraid.

I would've thought it was the opposite. Looking back at TV Live Forum it always felt like it was supposed to be the true TV Forum replacement. I'm still surprised that it only lasted a little more than a year before closure and it should have been given more time to thrive. In fact at Pres Cafe I feel like I've been suppressed from simply trying to state that I am "Cy's Junk" and not "Chad Blake" all because I accidentally used my email as my username when I registered.

I do understand why TVLF had to be closed though but the successor really needs to improve as per Alanbuzzy's suggestions.

I mean they're 20 years late for the member upon whom that insult would have been effective.

A bit of a proof-of-concept.

That's cool. I did do a mock up of it myself, as it goes. Green is good, but got to have the darker green, that evokes a good ol' Victorian era Pub.

Its a good thing you're not opening a forum going by that image. On a completely different topic, it's a shame whoever opened The Telly Forum couldn't make things work.
