    Just search for it with the search function, I've already said the thread title twice now, it's nothing special, just a bit of bantz.

    Every time I go on the takeover thread over there I can feel my energy drain, it’s filled with colins....

    Ah right, that's why I'd never see it.

    If this is the start of the board being swamped I'll just toddle off and not bother with it again.

    No big deal but it's just a bit boring.

    People left RTG because of it and they'd leave here just as quickly. It would sharp return to being the dead zone it was again.

    There is a fine line though between embellish and bellish - :emoticon-0105-wink:

    I posted hundreds of times mate and, to avoid being boring, put things in as entertaining a way as possible.

    'Embellish' has more than one meaning so the pessimists will always put a negative slant on it.

    I try to embellish all of my posts by trying to make them interesting or funny ...

    ... that's not the same as lying which is what that poster is implying.

    I totally agree we all have different opinions, but to be constantly negative is either a wind up and quite sad or just sad that you could be permanently negative.

    Normal balanced people are positive about some things and negative about others.

    Endlessly grinning people, who are totally optimistic about absolutely everything, are often sectioned and confined ....

    ... those who are relentlessly pessimistic aren't sectioned but find a safe haven on RTG.

    agree entirely.
    heres a fact, I once slipped over kicking a spent firework.

    this the story I tell. On a rainy fireworks night after watching my dad kick all the spent fireworks away I decided to do the next one. I ran full throttle at the firework, kicked, missed and slid. For an instant I was horizontal in mid air before sliding under my dads car leaving a tonyg size skid mark on the lawn.

    the facts still the same but I maybe didn’t slid all the way under the car and I’ve padded and embellished the story :)

    Hopefully not, I have enjoyed reading and contributing on here, there seems a lot of decent posters and not much point scoring

    I see what you mean but that's not it for me, I don't pad out the story with exaggerations.

    What I do is hoy a joke in, that isn't necessary, or add a few interesting facts that aren't actually vital.

    I post info as accurately as possible despite having to change a few things to blur the trail back to the source.

    But surely this place is supposed to be a laugh, not Crown Court.

    Glad I'm not the only one, keep thinking my lass might be right that I'm sad as **** for checking this constantly!

    I'm on that much during this that I literally panicked last night when I realised (I'm ****e at technology) that even though I browse from my personal phone, work would be able to see how much time I'm spending on here because I've been on their WiFi while doing it. Hopefully they don't notice, and now I'm just using data instead

    Indeed, I've got my bottle of poison ready if the takeover fails. LOL.
