2 threads? YOu mean the one I mentioned how pathetic the Liberal vote is? Or the poofta comment? Hey you can ask the admin why they let past the keeper.

Just pointing out a reason why Kate did not get a position. Note how even Ian Warden commented upon how attractive Ms Ellis is? What are her credentials?

You can not handle the truth AL. Get your own blog-site and be the uber-moderator then.

As for you switching off, well I said you should have resigned from the GCC and you have not. Don’t have much time for you then.

Hey come on everyone, chill out out: yes Kate maybe a heifer, but as the song says, fat bottom girls rule the world (just not in the Labor Party!).

From other forum experience, having ignore features makes for some very bizarre conversations, where one or more persons has followed a thread outlined in an ignored post that others cannot see, and then having the ignorers wonder why things suddenly went on a strange tangent.

I didn’t see G.Al argue that he didn’t have the right. Having the right to express views doesn’t mean having the right for those expressed views to be exempt from criticism.

If G.Al, or anyone else, thinks someone’s comments are odious and damaging, then they’re quite within their rights to say so.

Gungahlin Al, whether you like it or not, Pandy has every right to express his/her views, unless RiotACT has appointed you as the ‘thought police’.

Smells like Margo to me.

We do need an ignore switch thats for sure. Its really changed over the last year or so this place.

Gungahlin Al9:38 am 30 Nov 07

That’s two current threads Andy P has taken into the gutter. All class…
How’s the view in your mirror buddy?

As a community forum, RA can achieve things for Canberra – I know that a lot of ACT government people keep a watching eye on it.

But crap like this only drives good people away, and thereby undermines its potential.

It also undermines anything that person has to say in future, because all regulars will think “they are a pratt and a loser”, and immediately ignore everything that person writes.

@Mr Evil
The ALP definition of “Social Inclusion” can be found here:

Sounds like a new spin on work for the Dole to me…

@Gungahlin Al
Was listening to the ABC this morning and it appears that the Canberra politicians have been given “positions” (well away from from the action) where they can not make much noise when the razor gang swings in to town. Thus I doubt that we will be seeing any government departments moving up Gungahlin way any time soon.

Pandy12:23 am 30 Nov 07
