richard's tendency to dominate and wanting to have the last word has kept this going...
Can it please, please be the latter?
Yeah, like that's going to happen
Nuh-uh!
Richard took none of this on board imo. He got hounded on for the first part, until people defended him, then he started to post. Nothing will change.
WTF do you care Dwyer, you're patently a pre-prejudiced party and have absolutely no clue of the particulars, especially given that the trends you attempt to portray are obvious to all with an ounce of literary skill to be non-existant.
You are an annoying ****, Rodgie was an annoying ****. Rodgie got banned for being bad for the forum environment. He had many good points, and helped out with the communinty, you make many good points and help out with the community. Still he is gone and you are here. Why is that? Because of your huge post count? To keep the British - Australian ratio in tact?
As said previously - where discussion of myself is concerned, everyone is so much better-off without the likes of you.
Makes a dynamite cheese toasted sanga IMO.
I try and make an effort to make a post and then one response and then get out of a thread until something different is brought up.
Rodgie got banned for any number of reasons, many of which you could quite possibly be unaware of. Amongst them was that everyone bar perhaps 2 or 3 people couldn't stand him. That I'm "an annoying ****" is, conversely, the opinion of a relatively small minority. Ergo, Rodgie gets banned and I don't.
It means you're very obviously someone who is never going to approach this with anything useful to say, all you're interested in is pushing your stupid angle of why I'm an idiot.
And I would appreciate it if you, and Bo***ch for that matter, offered an explanation of why you don't mind most people using your real names but mind me doing so. Until then, you're very obviously only saying it because you want something to kick-up a fuss about and try to cause trouble for me with.
I actually agree about this, but there are and have been several of such members, tec, C_C and KaZo being the most obvious cases.
Possibly because they don't like you? Does it really matter though? If they don't want you using their real names for whatever reason, you should have the sense to stop doing it. It's the same with Francis using _Ed_'s picture as his avatar even though the latter was never fond of it.
Sounds good. Another measured and mature reponse.
Excellent posts. Richard, your posting is one of the most frustrating things about this site. Many people stay away and many others have left simply because of your presence. You're excruciatingly annoying and overbearing on the site simply because of a) the sheer volume of dross you write, b) your argumentative nature c) your sickeningly patronising manner and d) the multitude of terrible habits you have, e.g, referring to people by their real names.
Yes, but you could be a bit more mature and not have made the first post in the first place. Posting an insult then telling them they should be ignoring you is about as mature as a Michael Jackson love interest. (incidently, he was replying to George's post quoting you, for all you know he could have you on ignore, but saw it in the quote.)
or two), i'd really give up and leave myself. Remember in the past talk about OT going dire, but dire is 100 times better than some of the **** in there these days.
I know for a fact Perm hasn't got me on ignore despite me asking him to. I stand by my original posts actually. Perm is a million times worse than Richard in my personal opinion. In fact they are the only 2 posters who I would ever say a bad word about. Perm is on a mission and the insults are mainly coming from his direction so I thought I would slip one in under his guard
.
No, I'm sorry, this was not an excellent post, it was an extremely poor one.
One could argue that someone who claims "scientific testing poppcock" has no part to play in the detection of illegal bowling-actions should tread EXTREMELY carefully here...
I only patronise things that seriously deserve it, though, that's the thing - like one or two of the idiotic posts in this thread. I make a HUGE effort never to patronise good posters.
No, sorry, a) I'm far from the only person to refer to people by real-name; b) it's not a terrible habit, not at all, and only a tiny number have any genuine (rather than excuse-to-make-a-fuss) objection to it.
Do you honestly a) realise what a half-reduction would be and b) seriously think I don't think before most to all posts?

So I don't agree with you on that. Anyway, this is about Richard so not sure why you brought that up tbh
