Sometimes trolls here pretend to have support from silent lurkers.Urg certainly has trolls who use multiple ID's to attack gardening posters, undermine the group, mislead newbies, and create a false impression of support for themselves. :-) |

The message
from "David W.E. Roberts" contains these words: I am not sure the proposer has posted here yet on allotments (or anything else) but can't be bothered to Google at the moment. :-) Yes, quite recently. Started the thread 'strawberry question' and contributed to 'Cucumber seed'. A resounding vote for "If it ain't broke don't fix it". Strangely, I just looked through the YES votes and couldn't find the proposer. Does the proposer automatically count as a YES, is (s)he disbarred from voting, or did "Proponent : Gary Poston gary (at) torbay.eclipse.co.uk" not even bother to vote? Search me. I guess he should have voted. If so, why waste everyone elses time? Ah. You'd better ask him that. -- Rusty Open the creaking gate to make a horrid.squeak, then lower the foobar. http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/ |
