    Not quite seeing abuse here really.

    Its more about highlighting your questions can be answered by relevant groups and the soapboxing style of your repetitive posting seems to be about trying to get negative and angry responses.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    I've had same experience on the Donegal forum in relation to the mica issue. It seems to be a case of if you're not with us 100%, you're agin us. Best avoided. Same applies to any thread associated with travellers. Best avoided.

    But this is to be expected with moderators who volunteer their time to keep an eye on things. Whether that's ultimately useful I don't know.

    All of the posts quoted above play the man not the ball. You can be bloody well sure if I posted personal attacks like that, I'd have been banned long ago.

    Remember, this is not your normal thread. If "extreme" language like blank cheque can get you a ban, then surely name-calling should too?

    For my part ^^^ the only thing verging on 'abuse' is that I called you a troll. I stand by it.

    Maybe ask yourself why people reacted to your posts the way they did.

    So when was the last change made to the charter? Who made the change? could you find that out and resolve the question for those who have raised it?

    Posters have had plenty of opportunity to respond to my decision as set out previously. This thread is getting too personal - closed
