Just because I've made a few joke posts does not make me childish, they should be taken for what they are, jokes. If you look past these few posts you refer to, I feel I've added as much to this forum as you or anyone else.

Quite simply I dont agree with you Nook29.... Your wanting to introduce a "face palm" emoticon is a mechnisim to cut short an opinion implying that it is not worthy of continued discussion. Everybodys opinion is valid (yes even yours). I dont actualy object to your use of the face palm emoticon but if you do use it then dont be surprised if people think it is a childish way to carry on a debate. Lets face it (excuse the pun) if I recall correctily the "talk to the hand coz the face aint listening" mentality grew up through caracters designed to be funny (EG Cathrine Tates characters), so dont be surprised if people think you are a bit daft for wanting to use it.
Like you I get a bit fed up if people continualy repeat the same opinion again and again, but it is their opinion and they are entitled to express it. If I am getting fed up with an individuals posts I just scroll past them.
I hope you continue to contribute to the forum, I have enjoyed your posts as much as some peoples and less than some others. But it would be great if you didnt feel the need to attempt to belittle a persons opinion just because you find it repetative or not worthy (and yes I am aware that you say you have only usd face palm 4 times in the last month.... 4 times more than most other people have felt necessary).
