I would hate to think that I could only ever post in there, at times I come out onto the main forum to ask a question and sometimes because I have asked a question about a contestant have received very personal abuse and at one point had to wait for 3 days before anyone answered a simple question.
What some people do not seem to realise that to ask a question after a comment that is posted is not a hostile action
I enjoy good discussions and learning new things, yesterday and today I posted things following comments from a poster on a subject that I knew something about ( a very rare thing) and I was able to change someone mind about something due to that information. Thank you Jan Buddy and Richmond Blue I wish all posters could be so polite and we could have a forum where people were able to discuss the series instead of endlessly attacking not only the contestants but the other posters”
Why thankyou, that's most kind. Can I quote you, or get you to write me a reference ?
I like a joke and don't mind a bit of the "knock about" that goes on here, providing it remains good natured. But if someone does post a "serious" opinion or critique of the dancing, something technical, or associated with the choreography, then I'm keen to learn.
I'm no expert, and don't pretend to be..though over the years I do believe I've seen enough to know what constitutes a "good dance" visually. What I don't know are the required elements, and precise techniques of each dance, so I'm probably easily fooled by "showboating". It's then that I appreciate a discussion with the experts on here.
ps..I've never tried the "non-appreciation" thread, thought it was a bit cliquey. Is it ladies only, or can you sign me in at the door ?
