Didn't realise my comment would start off the comedy double act again. Was just a suggestion though, just thought the entire thing had gone a bit far myself. Never mind though.

Backup. Reeto. Maybe about time you let this N/O thing go and just concentrated on your own forum mate? 59743[/snapback] You fucking hypocrite! 59747[/snapback] Care to explain?

Obvious to most? Not only must you be a mind reader, but you're also very much wrong. You're the only one to mention it so far like. Re-read the actual thread, word for word, right from the beginning, every post, not just mine. You'll also notice quite a few of my comments about this place are tounge in cheek and I also later apologised to the owners/mods of the forum for any offence I may have caused in my 'critique' of this place. Stressing that this is my genuine appraisal of the forum. Which BTW, as a member, I have a right to expess (IMO). I'm oldskool too, as I was a member of the original Toon-Chat forum. At least I'm up front about it and don't use other boards to criticise this place or target individuals or anything like that. I'm actually trying to be helpful, as shallow as that may read. I've praised this board, some of the members and such too, so it's not as if it's petty or tit for tat because N.O got criticised either. Anyway, like I said, people who know me enough know I don't hold grudges or anything like that. I might be a pest and many things, but a cunt I'm not. PS Why oh why do I keep getting drawn into these things. I'll learn one day... 58723[/snapback] You (conveniently) cropped the first paragraph out of that quote, so I'll repeat it if I may: The point is though, (and the key difference) is that if there was criticism of this site on your site, I honestly couldnt give a monkeys toss! That's because I would see it as utterly fucking irrelevant to any problems with the current toontastic format. With respect, thats the bit you cant answer. If someone criticised this forum/poster on N-O then what the fuck could I possibly care? You clearly do however and thats what precipitates your responses. The state of toontastic is utterly fucking irrelevant to criticisms of N-O!!!!!!!! Why comment on toontastic then? Theres only one explanation in spte of any goodwill you might try to lay claim to. Throw a six and move on mate. 58734[/snapback] Oh god, yet more.

Hmm, noticing the thread is coming to a peaceful resolution, so trying to get the fighting starting again to get people posting? Banter, just banter.

Chris, Chris, leave it, he's not worth it.

I'm making no comments on this whatsoever, and that's not just to disprove the above theory. TBH I'm totally sick of the whole thing. Comments are made about other websites, it's a fact of life - as I have said before, if you're going to run a website/forum, you've got to accept that you're going to get criticism, no matter how much you don't like it. People don't like N-O - so what? People don't like Toontastic - so what?? Neither place will die as both will retain a core member base. As was said from the outset, Toontastic was never intended to be a competitor to Newcastle-Online, it was designed to offer the people who missed what they enjoyed about the original Toontastic/Toon-Chat the opportunity to enjoy it again. That included to some degree a cliquey-ness so I don't think that can be seen as a criticism of the site. I tend to look at it as 'job done'. Sure I'd like to see it a little bit busier but beggars can't be choosers. If one day it does die, I'll accept it and move on to something new - I've learned things out of doing it so I won't be slitting my wrists. It won't die though 58685[/snapback] Good post actually. But how do new members become part of the clique? At some point you surely must want to attract some new members? 58693[/snapback] You say that as though I don't normally make good posts! We do get new members, all the time and a fair few of them post - there's no membership to a clique. TBH, I'd say that I wasn't part of it and more on the periphery. Doesn't stop me posting though, nor does it make me feel like I shouldn't post but then again, I tend to rise above that kind of bullshit. 58697[/snapback] I've always wanted to be part of the clique. I tried desperately to fit in with different groups; first by joining the GRC, then by slating it. Now I don't think I fit in anywhere. I even dragged dotbum to this site, and he's more part of the clique than me Craig mate, we've got our own clique, and we don't need anyone else. 58703[/snapback] You two are the same person aren't you? 58705[/snapback] Talk about a gag that's been done to death.... 58708[/snapback] Sorry. Am I out the clique now? 58712[/snapback] So you got in it, but I didn't? 58713[/snapback] I know, standards dropping.

I don't really care to be honest. I know within myself, that's not true and I'd hope people who knew me enough, wouldn't see it like that because I'm not like that. I stand by all my comments and if you or anyone misreads them or misniterprets them as me wishing ill on this place, fair enough. I won't lie, I was mighty pissed off over the 'split' but more with myself for letting it happen and to be truthful, despite how gutted I was at first, it's been a blessing in disguise (and that's not a dig at this place or anyone), it's made me change how I view N.O - for the better in my opinion. I'm a Newcastle fan first and foremost, I have always preached from day one the importance of having many sites, many forums for NUFC fans to be able to use. Why do you think I was against any criticism of Nufc.com on N.O or other Toon sites? There has never been any criticism of this place on our forum either, not once. I certainly wouldn't be happy with that. Anyway, think what you like. You're wrong. 58664[/snapback] The point is though, (and the key difference) is that if there was criticism of this site on your site, I honestly couldnt give a monkeys toss! That's because I would see it as utterly fucking irrelevant to any problems with the current toontastic format. Despite what you say HTT, it's obvious to most (be it by your words or your tone, but certainly in a clear pattern of behaviour) that you do wish this site every misfortune. And that really is sad. Fair do's like. 58674[/snapback] I don't see anywhere where he has wished this site misfortune. In fact, he's said many times (on here and N/O) that the more NUFC fansites there are around the better.

So that backs up Gol's claim....... Still at least he's not on his own! 45305[/snapback] He's never on his own, he always has you to arse lick him. 45351[/snapback]

Been nice knowing you SSR.

Some people are on the wind-up here I think.

you fools,you can't understanding the freudian nature of the question,his floppy has become corrupted(ie he has a dose),on which he was carrying his coursework(ie classmate/girlfriend/shagpartner) "is there anyway i can salvage this work"="how do i get rid of the warts" "when i cannot access the A:/drive"="she dosent want it up the arse anymore" 44057[/snapback] Anyway, I've managed to salvage my coursework. Luckily I printed off the finished copy the previous day, so I was able to scan it back on (took me bloody ages mind). Ta for your help everyone, and I have learnt my lesson.

A floppy disk I was using to carry coursework has become corrupted and will no longer work. Is there ANY way which I can salvage this work, when I cannot access the A:/ drive?

www.imageshack.com Host it on there.

I didn't post it, Southern Geordie did. Was a screenshot from a webcam convo we were having. And I looked more like Dexter when I had blonde hair. And aye, I did do moderately well in my GCSEs, but I wouldn't call myself too intelligent. Fucked up in all the sciences though, hate em.

And geek chic is in.

Its because I look like Dexter off Dexter's laboratory. Its not cos of my intelligence, I'm a bit thick really TBH.

I notice that many of the people complaining about no respect in youngsters nowadays have been suspended from school. Eeee, you tearaways.
