#40, Sounds like you are well rid John, after all if you don't have "freedom of speech" what on earth is the point. When post's are personal that's when debate is destructive.

Recently and for no apparent reason I was on the receiving end of a sudden burst of verbal abuse written by a member on this site. What he wrote was both untrue and uncalled for. I was also surprised when a few members thanked and liked his post. I know everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion, but remember the Censor's sword pierces deeply into the heart of Free Expression.
I am now over 80 years old and this was the first time I had experienced disrespect.
FOURO.
sorry to hear that fouro.......water of a ducks back is the best frame of mind for that ....all our ages give us a right to respect ......the powers that be on the site must have the freedom to stop anything that goes over the top .....respect to you cappy
I had the same Fouro, from a senile old person who I once sailed with. Thankfully he has gone.
Take no notice of it. Ignore them, they do not like to be ignored.
Cheers

Just to let anyone interested know, Doc and I have buried the hatchet by private correspondence. I have 'walked away' and then walked back again. I suppose I could have saved shoe leather by just shutting up in the first place, but that's just not my way.
Yes indeed Braid
And let us now just go forward,however as said there was really no animosity at all just possibly some misunderstandings.
All now water under the Bridge,
Here is my Hand Across the Sea.
Cheers
Men of good faith may at times disagree, but if at the end they are still in friendship then no harm is done. Friends are the leaves on the tree of life, but sadly with time they wither and die. Enjoy the friendship whilst you may.
its good to know common sense has prevailed the site needs input 24/7 and like any crowd on a ship there is bound to be disagreements from time to time sometimes a step back is worth a step forward well done lads the more that gets involved the worse the problem gets? now behave your fu..ing selves :p jp
