No, actually. I am quite willing to discuss something with anyone and enjoy a healthy debate with many views and sides. I prefer those to one-sided debates, who wouldn't?
I just can't bear Shaun. Sorry if that pains you Sputty boy.

But isn't the nature of having separate threads for support and praise the epitome of a one-sided discussion? Those that don't like opposition can hide away from it in such a system, their beliefs never challenged.

Bloody hell. This argument makes me want to stick my head down the toilet.

Jings this is all getting rather heated.
The truth is that the original Banks thread was impossible to have a reasonable debate in - and I'm sure you know that I'm capable of that, Sput. Its all very well being sneery about us not being able to handle opposing views, but to be accused of being "closet fans" because I keep watching takes the biscuit.
And let's not even mention the outrageous "25 years and still going strong" subtitle.
Split threads was a necessary evil. I couldn't bear to post in the original thread any more.

By all means go ahead :roll:
I think Gavin summed up everything there and he's the sort of rational guy who knows what he's on about.

Pad, i'm glad (i hope) that the air has been cleared now. I know were not always going to see eye to eye - but i hope in the future we can both be civil about discussions in the future.

Except when I'm highly irrational.

That's what's getting to me.
It's like trying to avoid BBC3 at 10 o'clock.

Gav, you seem to be suggesting it's a move to deal with the sympton of morons on the forum rather than the cause, would I be right? Of course, that would smack of poor moderation and I'm SURE no-one here would ever DREAM of levelling such an accusation!
To me, it still seems ludicrous that you could have a reasoned discussion about anything by insulating opposing views from one another.
