IMO it's because they are self centred, feckless bullies who take little or no responsibility for any of their actions and expect everyone to say how high, when they say jump.
Alfie has moments when he is human but Kat is a shrieking harpy with no redeeming features at all.

Telling it like it is Sorcha

I see. I think Mormon Girl will be ok on her own. She has Jesus on her side after all.

And those were their good qualities

Self centred feckless bullies? Sounds more like people in this thread!

I support MG, she is cool!

Well that really isn't my intention, sorry if that's how you read it!

I was giving my opinion on Kat and Alfie. I certainly wasn't attempting to bully Mormon Girl who I genuinely like and respect.

I know people hate Kat and especially Alfie but I happen to love them so does MG and I know you all think anyone who does is a big joke and fair game to be ragged about in this forum, someone called Alfie and Kat bullies but that is exactly how some people are coming across, a bit of banter is fine but it tends to go too far, especially if it involves K and A, it's a joke to you and to other people but MG feels bullied, I feel bullied, other people like K and A too but hardly ever come forward to stick up for them and I don't wonder, they don't come here to be bullied and neither do MG or i!

Sorry if i'm ranting but I just needed to let off some steam!

Or Joseph Smith Jr; depending on your outlook on life But that's a debate for another day...


I'm not having that feckless most certainly - self centred bully most definitely not. There's some on here who who would do well to act more like me in their own lives

I never called you or anyone else a self centred feckless bully, I just said that's how people are coming across.

If you aren't a bully then i'm sorry but I and MG don't mind a joke but we do feel intimidated by some of the comments.

If there is no bullying whatsoever going on in this forum then people have nothing to worry about!

To bring this back on track - Kat and Alfie are unfit parents IMO. A bike and a doormat. Any signs of Alfie ever showing symptoms of a backbone are quickly forgotten within a scene or two.

Kat's well overdue another affair, add another 'Uncle' to Tommy's ever expanding extended family.

I'm sorry if you feel that way but throwing the bully accusation around is unfair IMO. As I explained previously I think Mormon Girl is very nice and I have alot of time for her but this is a soaps forum and we all have the right to express our opinions about characters even if they are negative

Pretty much this.

I'm still secretly skeptical about this dark route that they're putting Ronnie in. I don't want her to become too evil. As long as she doesn't go that far then I'm okay with it.

Why do people feel bullied when others are having banter about fictional characters.

Precisely.

I don't think that would be such a good idea, Kat has had too many affairs already and I totally agree that Alfie is a doormat and if there is another affair and he forgives her yet again he would be an even bigger one!

I say leave them as they are.

Ok fair enough, bullied/bullying is probably not the word is should have used but I myself do feel overwhelmed at times and feel that the banter goes too far, ok I suppose i'm too sensitive but that's me!

lol so true

You are defiantly not a bully. But some were having a laugh at her expense (not you!) and it might make sense if was anybody but she admits to having autism and so of course it can be lost on her. That I don't like and hence my backing of her as she is a sweet person. But certainly doesn't apply to you at all, you are never a bully another sweet person


Usually I would agree but when said person admits to have autism humour can be at her expense I felt a little uncomfortable with some of it. Clearly they knew she didn't get it and kept on. I think that was a shame. I don't want to call anyone out and maybe others didn't see it or realise that can happen.
But usually I don't see why fictional characters get some people so hot/bothered some even make personal comments over it but sad really. Disagree with the person don't insult them makes your argument look weak based on facts alone.

Thanks Ap. Also thank you retro aswell!

Ok I was part of the banter, personally I don't think I bullied or intimated anyone and I think it's harsh to accuse someone of doing that when it was clearly banter. If you were offended, that certainly wasn't mine or anyone elses intention.

I don't think you were part of what I thought was a bit off. Like I said its only because MG is a bit vulnerable I was a bit concerned. I don't think your a bully either should have stated that when I said sorcha wasn't

I wasn't keen on 'dark Ronnie' when DTC first revealed it but these past few months have been fascinating watching Ronnie's character get worse IMO, DTC surprised me.

I had no idea actually.

None whatsoever.
