I'm frequently surprised about just how naive and unrealistic many people are when it comes to their beliefs about what 'rights' they have in relation to their postings and in their expectations when it comes to privacy.Someone said something about this being a 'private forum open to the public'... you what!?

The owner expects those invited to his party at his house to behave respectfully and courteously while in his home and drinking his wine (even if some of it is from wine boxes). His Terms of Use are really very fair (compared to some), and his behaviour as host I can only describe as impeccable, far more generous and reasonable than that of one or two site owners not a million miles from ED (who would probably have murdered jrussel not long after birth).

dullified Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 I secretly suspect the man behind jrussel isn?t too far away from the man he created as jrussel i.e the real jrussel is an aspiring journalist who is a cross between Jeremy Clarkson/Donal MacIntyre and Jeremy Kylie in terms of intelligence, daring-do and incisive wit .Will be very surprised if you turn out to be a post-menopausal retired post-mistress - out of interest will we be getting a low down on who the real jrussel is in the article?

TonyQuinn Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Everyone please leave the man/woman alone.....jrussell is not the only troll on here. I suspect that most people posting day in and out on this site are trolls themselves. If you're worried about being exposed for posting nonsensical viewpoints, don't do it, even under a nom de plume of apparent innocence!

dullified Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 I didn't say there was anything wrong with Jeremy Clarkson/Donal MacIntyre and Jeremy Kylie did I! Read my post carefully!

Keef Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Wow, I read the first page of this a couple of days ago, and it's gone a wee bit mental since then. People do care about the strangest things. You type a load of stuff on a forum that is viewable by anyone with an internet connection, but then you worry if someone might write about it. Why put it out there in the first place?I still think this whole thread is a super wind up.

louisiana Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 I've never been able to take this chap seriously, as the name is also the alter ego of a mate of mine who uses it to wind up and strongly influence Those Who Must Be Obeyed. Which has on occasion led to situations of hand-on-knee by said TWMBO. I see the name and I just guffaw at the memory of those encounters. Now that's trolling in style.
