Has CUK become a forum of losers?

[sasguru]

It used to be that you had successful contractors on here, people who made money.
Now it seems to be a haven for fantasists, losers, cretins, the mentally ill or various combinations thereof.
What happened? Where did it all go wrong?

He got an ice pick
That made his ears burn

Whatever happened to dear old Lenny?

CUK has always been a haven of fantasists.

But now there are people who lack either the will or skill to project a successful image.

Where I agree with you, is that there is an unusually virulent strain of cretins this year. It may be that cretins are usually killed off by (or perhaps remain dormant because of) a late frost, perhaps because they regularly lose their one bedroom flat keys and have to sleep outside.

This year's hot summer seems to see them thriving, but hopefully a cold winter will kill many of them off.
