There is so much skulduggery and nastiness on TMP at the moment I wonder if it is safe to trust anyone who joined in 2013!

…and a few in 2014.

A right feisty bunch it seems to me. Check it out – how much ill-content is being served by the Class of 2013. I notice that much of it comes from these recent joiners.

laugh save you looking …2012 wink

What if the supposedly new joiners are actually just sock puppets of older, possibly banned accounts? :)

Could be, could be…

Holy crap, I've been on here for 10 years!

Some are more equal than others obviously.

The member who joined one minute ago is as valid a contributor as the one who has been on the site for 10 years or more. IMHO.

Really? You might want to consider this gem:

HORRIBLE! I miss so much on TMP …thankfully.

For all the Haters out there seeking to destroy TMP…

…and I hope you stuck with it 'till the end.

People aren't any worse these days than they used to be. Its just that there are MORE of them and they have so many more avenues to get their hateful views out there and heard.

TL;DR: Humanity is full of idiots, always has been.

If the idea is to rid tmp of individuals like the chap in the link then better off not replying. Attention seeker is the most wholesome way I can think to discribe him. He's just feeding off every comment. Gets him what he craves; a little notice in a world that otherwise doesn't…sad really

Agreed.

John – I'll reword that statement :

The member who joined one minute ago should be treated as an equally valid contributor as one who has been on the site for 10 years or more, until they are proven otherwise. IMHO.

And if they're jerks, then they're equal with any jerks of long standing.

Ah, the offending thread has been nuked,
I hope that Dear Editor has dealt with the offenders in an appropriate manner. grin

I joined in 2013 and I thought being catty and back biting was the norm,

I do find it tedious that there are threads with good arguments on them, that get hijacked a trigger words on the thread, then it gose off on one!
A group how will never see eye to eye, need to show us all just how clever they are!

It seems much quieter today:)

Nearly 12 years for me, perhaps I'm just too lazy to move.

oh tish!

It used to be wild back in the old days, but nothing on some of the old newsgroups. Ahhh Those were the days, can still smell the accelerent…

maybe it is as bad, its just that there are no new ideas, just old ones recycled,and you tend to switch off to stuff you've seen before. Theres certainly less cussin…
