I'm not going to get into it because its very tedious but this thread was going along just fine and in a civil fashion but you couldn't help but have a dig at 'Moffat fanboys' and Heaven Sent. Your comment contributed nothing and was an obvious attempt to provoke a response. And as always when you get the response you aimed for you act all aggrieved.

Why is it you can reognise his acting is the appeal in one show but not in another?

You are actually blaming me for responding negatively to your rude post?

Like I said, project much?

Sounds like somebody got a little too upset over other people enjoying that episode. So many of your comments seem to be you trying to take a dig at people who enjoy Moffat and then when you're called out you change your tune and start complaining about how nobody lets you criticise Moffat.

People can post whatever they want Saladfingers81. It's when they aim their hate directly at me I take offence.

Quite. Tennant was successful because he was incredibly engaging at a time when the show was very accessible. Smith was engaging even when the show got less accessible.

I admire Capaldi greatly but I don't find him engaging and never have. He just hasn't got that 'something' for me. It's like being able to applaud someone doing great technical feat but not 'feeling it'.

As I'm sure some people love Capaldi there are others who are luke warm about him or actively dislike him. At a time when the show seems to be stagnating a bit the best thing for it is a completely fresh start when Chibnall takes over, try to bring some of that old audience back. As we've seen, a new Doctor brings in a lot of casually interested viewers and it would give Chibnall a fair chance to make his era of the show really his.

I recognize it on both shows, I'm just saying part of Tennant's appeal is his looks

Honestly. Do you think if PC was a 28 yr old cute blonde guy wth dimples(despite his docs personality) he would not be more appealing to more DW fans in this day and age?

No. See you dont seem to get it, You posting 'soggy fanboys' is offensive. You know you were just slyly trying to be dismissive of an episode many enjoyed just because you didnt and again throwing around the term 'fanboy' as a slur. My response re. the forum rules was partly tongue in cheek but it is true that terms like 'fanboy' are considered rude and inflammatory. and it surprises me that as someone who is quick to chastise others for their forum etiquette you yourself were clearly baiting other posters and being rather rude. I know full well I myself often come across as rude and disrespectful. Probably because I am. But at least I'm honest, Honest is good. I dislike creeping disingenuous behavior.

It wasn't even me who posted that comment.

I was going to say, I'm not saladfingers. :P

Oh my goodness saladfingers81. You are on fire tonight. This is so funny.

Please, next, tell us how you dislike forum members making personal comments rather than debating an issue politely!

Exactly this. There is constant sly baiting of other forum members by some on here and when they are challenged they claim they are being personally attacked. People should take responsibility for what they post. Seemed like an obvious attempt to inflame what had been a civil thread.

Sorry. Your posts are so similar I get you muddled up.

"Throwing shade"? Are you a Real Housewife of Beverly Hills or something?!

I wish!

See you're engaging in exactly the behavior you accuse me of. i took issue with a specific comment that YOU posted. I said nothing personal. Its then you who is commenting on me and not what I am saying. You have not made any attempt to address what I said about your remarks and instead have called me abusive and other derogatory terms as well as trying to wind me up with 'sweetie' etc. It really is quite transparent.

That's because we're just rabid Moffat fanboys who snog cardboard cutouts of him because we don't criticise him enough by some people's standards.

and now being rude to other forum members and/or accusing me of being a multi- ID. Has someone been at the Sherry this evening sweetie?

Your attempts at winding people up are as obvious and scripted as one of those shows, Mulett. We get it, you didn't enjoy last year. We also get it that you don't get on with saladfingers. This thread was about Capaldi staying on (or not) with Chibnall, not about you and your grievances!

Sorry Saladfingers81. After months of your rudeness and unconstructive nonsense, I tend to just switch off from the detail of what you are saying. Can I leave that with you as something to think about?

Anyway, I'm off to watch Supergirl. Don't bother - it's not very good but our 13yo likes it.

Jessica Jones on the other hand . . .

I'm saying nothing more. Its probably another attempt at baiting me into getting banned. And as always I respond like an idiot. Well the posts are there for all to read. In my opinion there was an obvious attempt to wind people up again on a thread that didnt need it. And I am sick and tired of having my opinions about Doctor Who waved away and dismissed with accusations of being a 'fanboy' or a 'Moffat apologist'.

Quite a few people were upset when david tennant left, and matt smith https://youtu.be/45d8kn5hApg

I couldn't give two hoots if anyone gets wound up by my post. That's your issue not mine. I'm free to post my opinion. If you react badly to my opinion, that's a reflection on you not me,

"What do you mean you didn't hate Series 9? You're just a slobbering Moffat apologist and the ratings prove your opinion is wrong!"

This is what some people really sound like.

The correct word is Moffette.

Honestly. It's SO 2015 on here sometimes.
