that when anyone becomes unpopular on here, everyone seems to believe everything bad that's said about them?

I have seen some stupid claims...the most silliest and one one of my favs is.. when someone claimed that someone or ones had deleted their FB account,

Uggers Report 30 Jan 2010 23:14

Kay, I like a ruck and I think Robin is a proper numpty and Mel is *her own worst enemy* and so on but I still don't think they're up to half the things they are accused of.

Many's the time I've used the villager / pitchforks metaphor myself in this regard. ;)

Now, elsewhere, it's the Pakled image ...

So much of what goes on hereabouts brings one or the other to mind.

Well I've only really accused her of being a pain in the backside on here, and not knowing how to behave on t'internet....

Robin = numpty....you're in a good mood tonight PMSL

You know what I think of him, and I can't say it here without getting a ban...lol

Uggers if i ever become even more unpopular...please let me know what bits you believe about me ;)

it could be of course because some people know even worse things that ARE true, so are inclined to believe almost everything is possible ...

Uggers Report 30 Jan 2010 23:17

Then ask, Sheila - it might make things more interesting;)

What's Pakled image, Janey?

FannyByGaslight

FannyByGaslight Report 30 Jan 2010 23:18

And if they didnt at least pretend to believe it they would have nothing to gossip about,now would they?

Uggers....your thought provoking question has led me to the expression " mud slinging " which is apparently a form of negative campaigning.......but exactly what the aim is I couldn't guess...........I'm sure no one wins anything at the end of the " mud " slinging and unfortunately the entire boards end up smelling of sh*t .

But it does give us all something to read and think about..........lol
