Whoah folks!!!!

Isnt the way this thread has developed exactly what dan was trying to avoid by starting it in the first place?

Its just become another chat thread hasnt it? 3 pages added (at least )since i last looked at it.

Dan, you should have posted your request and then locked the thread mate. Now look whats happened  :o ::)

Ooo, I meant to jump on this at an earlier stage.  Not this particular message, but the subject matter.

I don't know if you all know, but I recently discovered (am a bit sloooow) that there is an 'ignore member' feature (no, not an ignore member's feature....fnarr fnarr) in your profile preferences so if there is an A4A member or members whose posts are driving you up the wall or simply posting too much chit chat etc etc, stick them in the ignore list and voila!  no more being faced with annoying posts when you come onto the board!  I'm now using it and jolly glad that I am!

Could also help to diffuse heated situations and ...praps a number of you who PM'd me lately might now like to use it too?!  (not against me though I might add .... beg.... ;D )

Hope this is of help to someone :)

Your loss if you miss an important and helpful post from someone you have ignored. 

Blimey, where did that come from?!  Not sure why you would say that <shrug>

Not looking for unnecessary comments, RC, was just passing on useful information.  Couple of people I've spoken to lately didn't know about half of the features available in the preferences and given some of the comments on this thread (especially) I thought it a good idea to post a tip! 

Sorry - feeling a bit tetchy just now - will delete the second and (admittedly) unnecessary part of my post.  :)

Awww Ady....don't be tetchy! You're wonging is getting better every day, really....sorry Dominique and Adam this goat has a mind of it's own, trying for control, but think Ady braided it a bit too blessed tight... ::) ;)

Don't get bloody tetchy?  You'd be bloody tetchy if a tractor had driven all over your garlic.  (See Pests, Diseasles & Disorders)

Just seen.....sorry, Ady....feel free and grrrr..... :-\

Thank you for that useful information YP, i have been on here a long time and had no idea about that  :o     YES i am sloooooow to. very useful. ;D

Ooops you probably don't even know I've written this   ;D

Just picked the first decent sized topic in 'Edibles'. In under two pages (and post-Dan's request) the topic covers earwigs, photo prowess, seed quality and , oh yes, aubergines...!!

I'm sorry but I can't see staying on topic as realistic or desirable. Sure the banter should be confined to the shed but to complain about it in here is - errm - odd.

However if you were searching for an answer to a particular question/problem and were short on time wouldn't it annoy the pants off you if you had to trawl through a load of irrelevance?

It is perfectly possible IMO to keep it on topic, and I am not alone in this opinion, despite those who have 'posted against me'.

As far as i am concerned the shed is the best place to duscuss it since it is the part of the forum for discussing NON SPECIFIC (ie non gardening/covered in other areas) topics.
