Im gonna get slated for this post and will probably mean i wont come back however i feel i need to say wot ive noticed for a long time. I wish people would respect other peoples views and not criticise each other so much and sometimes gang up on other members ( im sure its not meant like that however reading it at times makes me feel really uncomfotable ). Aslong as everyone respects each other's views and dont make any personal remarks that upset other members then theres no harm in people disagreeing with each other. I would really hate for this to become a place where some people are afraid to post comments coz of the barrage of comments they receive and any newbies are very unlikely to want to join or post on here. I really enjoy this forum 95% of the time but theres been a few times ive not bothered reading anymore as i can see its gonna end up in tears. I hope this hasnt offended anyone and it isnt aimed at any one particular its just an observation ive made over the last few weeks

its an open forum Autumn and people are bound to disagree, but when things are said about us on facebook and other places, we all stand up for each other. I hope you keep posting, everyone is entitled to their opinion and sometimes people disagree, but it would be boring if we all felt the same IMO of course :_
No offence taken whatsoever Autumn. We all have a giggle or give & receive advice on here. If anyone wants to indulge in classic trolling bahaviour I personally either say my bit or if really out of order report the comment/s x.
Lol
See, that's why I love this Forum.
You can pop in and read about rantings about geese in boudoirs, I said you said .... and I don't know what altogether and feel as if you're in 'One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest'
I love it!

The thing is presenters are there as the friendly smiling face of the channel. They are employed because they can do the job, even if many do not like them. The company will not get rid of them just for that. That is their public face. In private or on their spare time who knows???? One is rumoured to be a lap dancer, its her private thing if it does not interfere with her ability to sell on the channel then hey ho.
On Twitter it was well known who the footballer was with the super injunction, he was named openly there. Yet everywhere else no one allow to say.
Take the internet/forums, Joe Bloggs comes on and tells us he is a war vet he lost an arm and a leg. He lives at home sees no one. Next month suddenly he mentions I was at work. What do you do? Oh I am a painter on the Forth Road Bridge. Then suddenly bit by bit 20 sisters and brothers turn up, grannies etc who he does see on a regular basis. So which story is true?
Pre internet(this was asked)
1958 small town USA.
"Oh Ed, was a quiet guy. He used to baby sit the local kids if needed, a little odd since his mother died and he lived alone at the farm.
Ed Gein, look him up.
1970s USA. Ted is great. He works at a call centre for rape victims, at college he is going to be a great lawyer some day. He helps out at the local political campaign headquarters. He could be a state governor one day.
Ted Bundy, look him up.
See, everyone has their public face and as Ted said the monster kept inside no one but you can see.
Same on the internet and forums, people can tell you anything.
New show on MTV called Catfish. All about people meeting others online and believing with out doubt they are who and want they say they are. The show tracks them down brings the person they talk to online and might even fall in love with. Turns out to be not them. Sometimes not even a man or woman. Last night was Sunny and Jamieson, he was a model. Photos etc up(family ones too), turned out to be a 18 year girl who has been doing this since she was 14. She was not gay even though it was women they targeted. Just did it for fun.

OMG - do you have Google locations switched on, on your phone? I wonder if you were tracked because of the location finder. Might look into it. My android tablet thinks l'm still in Spain as it was there that I switched it off. Haven't googled myself for a few years - time to check again.
My Facebook account is showing that I'm in Darjeeling - I kid you not!
Now I was in India last month, but I was not in Darjeeling, not even for a cup of tea so don't believe anything
No, coming into this thread this morning proves I'm in Oompa Loompa Land!

I think Chloe has made a rod for her own back with her twitter comments. They were not innocent innuendos but really quite near to the knuckle smut. Im not offended by it but I cannot understand how her incidents were overlooked by qvc. Maybe sky was relieved now she has gone. Im sure she will be careful now but those posts do give an insight into her character. QVC now, like it or not, are always talking about tweets and wanting presenters to get into the whole tweet thing, so considering this Im surprised Miss Everton is not embarassed everytime she has to mention tweet or tweeting.

Sex and smut sell and Chloe is no innocent. Doesn't stop her begin a good presenter but I wouldn't want to socialise with her

Can someone not have something less than perfect in their past and not be allowed to move on from it?
