    Back on topic , the og question was " why is it so quiet on tlb " i think the answer is somewhere within ourselves - what we post and how we react to topics , yeah some keep coming up like what oil etc but that's where you either reply in good faith or let someone else answer.

    for me the big fall out the other month got me down , i saw another side to people i thought i knew , i could not believe the things being written and it has left me feeling confused , i don't know what people want to talk about or how they will react to certain topics and i don't know where all the bitterness came from , i can guess but that would be wrong .

    i just carried on posting because i like tlb and did not want to see it dragged down by people who post vile on it ,

    i am not the same poster or tlber as i was before that night - i read stuff going on that i had no idea about , i saw good people get upset and leave the forum - our loss - and i read some sh-te basically .

    i have tried to carry on being me - poptop2 but with a heavier heart re tlb !

    You are right Malc. It hasn't been the same. Limped along for a while and maybe recovering a bit as time goes on. I certainly hope so because, like a fair few on here, I don't normally do forums.

    I have just carried on being me and getting involved where I want to. I go on Facebook too because there are people on there that I call friends who don't come on here now :(

    I'm not going anywhere though - if we can get back to where we were - with a bit of help from some newbies - wouldn't that be great :)

    Its been done to death on loads of threads, can't see the point anymore, as for mods not coming on here much now, why keep them as mods, this forum needs mods who interact more, have the crack and join in but its not happening, if there busy doing other stuff or got their own problems move on

    The thing is you never really know in what context something is written and also how people read it
    I could read some post in here and think he's haveing a pop at me I could then spin it all round and start a big fight off or not post at all
    The other thing to bear in mind is you don't know what's happening in peoples real life for example this morning I could of lost my job been thrown out of my house and my dog been run over but worse of all my bus wouldn't start :)
    So I may be a bit sharp with people ps none of the above is true in my case apart from the bus bit :)
    This might explain why I was a little sharp with some people I few months ago so maybe with a bit of forum tweaking (maybe a how to improve thread pete)
    And longer fuses for everyone we might get back to the forum we used to have
    I think I spoken to most who I may of upset a bit back and put right if not soZ
