Can you point me to anywhere somebody says they are in competition?

The difference is I don't see the two sites in competition. I think it's more of a complementary arrangement.

Well, as everyone knows I post there as much as I do here so i'm not knocking it. I visit every day, several times a day, as I do here and i'd like to think i'm valued equally at both sites.

However, I would like to see someone try and have a thread on OA saying how great Fakers site/forum is and see how long it lasts.

Take it up with the relevant people then. It's not my fault you feel that way. I'm just a user on there.

Emma I wasn't having a go at you, or the folks at OA (of which I am one, and a very frequent one at that). I was just making a point which I believed to be valid. It wasn't an attack on any person or site, just an observation.

Hand shake being offered if you want?

I'm sorry Bengos. I really don't understand that. You were suggesting I don't post complimentory remarks of the OA site on this one. I don't see how I could possibly shake on that. I'm genuinely sorry, but I do'nt know what else to say really. Do you screen everything I say from now on?

No, I just reply to threads i've taken part in. It's how forums work. I give up.

To be fair, Emma, I think you're seeing a personal attack where none was intended. Bengos believes this is an inappropriate forum to praise OA in and was just posting that opinion, not trying to censor your posts.

I don't agree with the sentiment but I didn't see anything objectionable in the tone.

Judging from your follow up post on OA I think you've interpreted some of the laughing smilies as a form of ridicule but I just saw them as a way to lighten the tone of the post into good-natured banter.

It's easy to get the wrong end of the stick when it comes to posting on forums - I speak from experience

Thanks Julian - wise words from you, as always.

The "regular smile" smiley on Fakers is a laughing person, but a nice smile is all I intended.

I have never eaten at Wimpy but I did have an orange afro once.


Hum, see they have colapsing threads now as well.

Hi Julian. It didn't say it was a personal attack. Bengos doesn't know me. I just thought it was rude and an odd comment to make. I wasn't best pleased. I think this has more to do with something else that has nothing to do with me honestly. I don't want to know to be fair.

I'm over it now.

Ok. That can be read the wrong way. I can't see a normal smilie myself.

I still don't agree with your comment, but peace.
