[quote=robbies_gal;67367705]same here wasnt here last year so dont know what that was like

and i do feel the newbies are the worst culprits[/QUOTE]

I get the feeling from their posts that a lot of newbies every year are kids - no forum 'etiquette' and no moderation!
From older and well established FMs... there's no excuse!
OP - there are so many on here who are lovely and funny... and far more entertaining than the show so don't give up contributing and reading this forum!

Yes. I see that, Allie. ... and I shall post again when I feel I have something original or of interest to share here.

I'm feeling a little bit guilty actuallyl. I'm used to keeping up with thread contributions and replying to most contributors individually, especially where someone makes a pertinent comment or complimentary remark.

I tried the multi quote thing but after it delivered the first quote into the text box, there was, (seemingly), no way to go to a second thread and quote from it. (No multi quote icon appearing).

Do I have to have threads arranged in descending or ascending order or something? I mean I see posts from old to new. Should I be changing to new to old?

Whatever the answer, the moment to address folk individually has kind of passed but I repeat what I said earlier ... I've really enjoyed the feedback ... and have learned greatly from all comments shared.

Only now am I beginning to understand that I've stumbled upon a forum possibly akin to what I imagine a Star Trek 'Trekkies' style forum site would feel like.

You people are passionate about the show(s), the LF and the forum, aren't you?

And you certainly know your Big Brother

Far more vile, bitter, angry, moaners on here than nice people.

Doesn't matter now, Monty. I've made contact with enough articulate, like minded folk on this thread to satisfy myself that Digital Spy can be home for at least a little while.

If I don't like it as time progresses, I'll just fire up the warp drives and move on to some other online universe.

Someone get the violins out.....

Yep. It should sound fabulous echoing out from under that rickety bridge ...
