This is getting childish.
The thread was created in Garden Banter and followed up here,
There is a hell of a lot of off topic trash being posted under various
headings that has little or nothing to do with gardening etc but we put
up with it.
Give the OP a chance and just let it drop.
David Hill @ the damp end of Swansea who is getting ****ed off with all
the tripe in this news group.

You're forever complaining about spam and OT trash most of us never
see; you've been given endless advice how to do the same.

However, when a gardening thread appears, there is every reason for the
gardeners here to join in and discuss the topic of sumach... which they
did in perfectly normal fashion, until the OP rudely rejected their input.

I'm far from the only regular gardening poster who objected to that.


Janet.

You must be so bored.

For your information I have been using NEWS Individual net for the last
month, and I seem to be seeing far more childish messages than I ever
did when using Goggle.
Granted Google didn't filter out a lot of spam, but it didn't seem to
show so much absolute crap that some people seem to post.
Sorry but there is no other term for some of the postings.

That is unfair. He produced a response to an extremely unhelpful
semi-troll, but phrased it in such a way that it seemed to apply to
every response. Because he was a GardenBanterer, he did not realise
that replies very often appear in weird orders. Things then developed
into a flame war.

I am not going to take sides, or even echo Mercutio.


Regards,
Nick Maclaren.

Im not a gardenbanterer either, I just typed gardening forum on google and joint the first one that came up. Yes I have found this website confusing and to be honest, I Wont be here for long! Thank you to everyone who did give me advice though. Going to ask some of the volunteers I work with if they have Sumachs! Dean

"other people" - eh? Just tell him he is not welcome and be done with it.


(I of course think that he is spot on having been on the receiving end of some
of your less than helpful comments)

What a horrible place to be this is.

Anyone is welcome to discuss growing rhus typhina even if they don't
have it in their garden, or don't intend to supply one to Dean.

and why the word "other" in the sentence:

"You have created this thread in a discussion group which exists purely, for

I guess it was a reflection on what you were thinking.

I'd guess that's a reflection on how you follow threads. Read the line
by Dean above my reply. Responding to Dean's comment

" I didn't CREATE this thread to discuss sumachs with people",

I was pointing out that OTHER people are here purely to discuss; that is
the sole purpose of this group.

Nice wriggle:

"You have created this thread in a discussion group which exists purely,

"the discussion group exists purely for other people" if not the group - then
what is it that "purely exists"?

"the discussion group exists purely for other people" if not the group -
then

Once you lot in the clique get your knife into a person, especially if they
come from gardenbanter, you don't give up do you?

Can't you accept that gardenbanter is here and here to stay?

Go and start your own forum and make sure us nasties stay away.

I think it's fair to say that everyone is welcome in urg and that most
urglers try to be helpful. But if they come via e.g. Gardenbanter it
may help *them* to realise that they're not in a straight question and
answer situation. Because this is a discussion-about-gardening group,
they will get a lot of opinions, some of which conflict! What they
won't get, usually, is Answer B to Question A.

That, I think, is the most sensible answer in this whole thread.
