If DS owners had their way this is what all the forum threads would look like:
OH YES!!
forums.digitalspy.com
i have zero problem with threads like this, ive never bothered replying on them as its eff all to do with me, but the main problem is that if a man did the same about a woman the whole thread would be closed and you would end up with a warning, to be honest it feels like the modding on DS is now reflecting Britain as a whole, i'm cool with people doing whatever they do, as long as everything is 50-50 and fair all round, but it feels like the wokes dont want this, they literally want to cancel anyone who has different opinions, not even far right opinions, just disagreeing over anything and they alert mods and respond in a real nasty way, to me thats baiting, once they cross a line then i should be able to give as good back, but again their posts remain and if you respond you get the warning or ban along with the warning or ban for disagreeing
Someone posted their doubts about Markles interview and i agreed , sure enough a warning come through "we have deleted your posts as it could be seen as downplaying racism" , WTF ?? this is where i pointed out the stupidity, i hadnt mentioned race, i agreed some bits sounded doubtful about her story, but they made an assumption, so they can warn you over their own make believe now you dont even have to make a statement, they will warn you using their own presumption, its just ridiculous, i think that was my last little war with the mods before realising i dont need the arguing or DS in my life
Now while I would usually welcome a new user to these parts and share a moan or two about DS and it’s numerous foibles with them and the rest of us, I feel I can’t do that with a certain new user sadly.
So I think that signals my time is up on this part of Tattle...
Yes I could be more of a grown up and just accept them on here but when I experienced quite nasty and personal messages at their hand on DS, there’s absolutely no way I want to spend any more time around them.
It’s petty, it’s childish, but it’s for my own good really and that’s what matters most - in these times more than ever.
Maybe I’ll see some of you around elsewhere on Tattle and for now I’m still on DS (for my sins), so I’m not going for good.
Toodles!
A certain new user
has anyone joined in the last week or so , oh yeah , i have
sort of makes me feel paranoid, not sure ive sent any nasty personal messages on DS so i dont know who that could be, or how you could know who a certain new user is on DS
i mean you could reveal the name of a certain new user just to stop the paranoia
Ok, I'll "at" people rather than do a big multi-quote as I don't want to look like carl.waring
@Purrrrrrr You've certainly made a very astute observation, so thanykou

. I've definitely changed over the past few years but I don't necessarily think it's entirely down to my time on dogs. If anything, that forum just reminded me of how I don't really get a lot out of it any more. I think "life" (if there is such a thing..) also got in the way to a certain degree.
@Phil Anne Throw Pee Thankyou for the welcome

. I did mean to ask you how the grading system for Incel
bleeps works

@Anteater Lady Was
this post aimed at me ?. If it was then I'm afraid I have no idea who you are/were on DS. Sorry.
there was someone called Kwynne on the ED thread , who would pour over every single comment and answer them all the next day, usually after watching the episode so he could then say to people "no you are wrong" i think he thought he was being clever, but he wouldnt use multi-quotes , he would answer them all individually, so the next day you got pages of waffle

usually acerbic with no sense of humour
