I read a real load of dribble on here, about a recent squeaky  thread, and the mod said he had to spend time deleting pointless posts.

He claimed to spend forty five minutes doing so every morning.

Thats the bit i don't understand.As the thread was pointless and tangentially off topic why tidy it up.It was hopelesss and uninformative.No one re-reads threads like this so why do they need to be policed?

The mods are so far up themselves it's not true.

Do random thoughts need sub editing?

He didn`t say 45 minutes every morning.
And they need to be policed in case they get out of hand- threats etc.

I saw this film in the mid 80s - one of Arnie's best I think.

Shall we run a poll?

well you did read it, as did I. And what is this if not a pointless post in the wrong section as it has nothing to do with window cleaning ;)

The MODS do a fine job keep it up MODS

Has anyone ever licked a window instead of cleaning it?  I did once, just to see what all the fuss was  about.

I quite liked it.

The thread was ongoing and was only halfway down the page.

Roger was being picked on by all and sundry, I could have been lazy and just deleted the whole thread.
That would mean deleting shed loads of threads (or could, I wouldn't do that of course)
Tidying up such threads is a real chore.

I only wish there was a way of selecting several posts in a thread  to delete
 at a time, having to delete one at a time is incredibly time consuming

I've actually really enjoyed the recent banter,.. it was all in good fun & everyone saw that (except for one lone muppet). I haven't laughed so hard in ages as I did at the Squeaky thread. :)

I like your posts Steven even if they are dribble. Some people have had personality bypass operations.

Additionally, I like dribble.
