    CUK Exodus

    <rant>

    What on earth is it with some people?
    I'm going... I'm not... I've been wronged/abused/insulted etc... I'm back etc...

    It's a message board ffs - open to anyone, which includes a wide array of geniuses and madmen.

    The more geniuses leave, the more madmen remain, and the message board goes to hell in a handbasket.

    Veterans out there - has CUK always been like this? Is this a phase?

    Yes, in all seriousness, the board has slowed down a little lately - but that's all down to the users, and it's up to us to inject more momentum into things.

      No it's a new thing. To be honest the quality of posting is very poor at the moment and there has been little moderation/tidying up of posts for some time.

      You only have to look at General to see only one actual thread about contracting.
      What happens in General, stays in General.
      You know what they say about assumptions!

        Garbage In Garbage Out. I blame Bagpuss and Sasguru who between them have the intellectual value of a Swiss Cheese Plant. Too many weedy pigeons on here these days too.

          Some would argue that they are one and the same, either that or to be the former you need to be the latter.

            MF - I agree to some extent, but it shouldn't all have to have some relevance to contracting per se, it's good to see debates about topical issues in General, topics not silly enough to be in LR.

            Problem is some people can't have a debate, and resort to hurling abuse when it doesn't go their way. That and people taking the bait.

              Well Id rather stay here -
              With All the Madmen
              Then perish with the Sadmen roaming Free

              Where can the horizon lie ?

              When a nation hides its nuclear waste
              In a cellar

              dark and grim

              I found him Mummy - can I keep him?
