    Naw. Both forums have their own vaguely-defined lists of things than can't be mentioned without complaint, things that will always be up-voted, things that will always be down-voted, and things that will always get roughly the same set of boring, thoughtless, replies. As far as i'm concerned, any real difference between them is likely to change with the phase of the moon.

        It's just a way of knowing someone actually read your post and agrees or disagrees. I treat 1 votes here the same as 5 votes. I reached out and pissed someone off. :cool:

            Now I don't spend much time here in the Soap Box, but I wasn't impressed by the attack on it. I think the Soap Box has a large part to play in Code Project - it's just a little too American Politics for my taste; however I don't think it deserved the attack - so fair play to it, and I'll hope over onto that thread now and put a defence in - not that you'll care one way or the other.

                    Now you are giving American politics a worse name than it deserves :rolleyes: I can't see what prompted the lounge comments, but either I've actually grown older, or the soapbox has become bvery kindergarden-childish in the last years.

                      It seems that we denizens of The Soapbox have drawn the ire of some of the Lounge Lizards[^]. Obviously, they spend time here but then run back there and act superior while criticizing us. Personally, I don't spend much time in the Lounge since it seems superfluous and short on any sense of humor. And what's with the kid sister safe rule for posting, as if kid sisters are some golden creatures with heightened sensibilities?

                        I never felt that way, those were all in good fun, I guess I should have worded that post better. I was referring more to people who seem to be shunned from the lounge after insults to regulars when they have received more insults, i.e. Julia4u/"The Developer". Seems like the lounge is much more cliquish and uptight compared to the soapbox.

                        Don't worry about it. I posted this late at night, so I should probably have worded it better myself.

                        I couldn't agree more - it's a disturbing trend, and means I'm spending a lot less time there (and I've noticed that some of the regulars seem to feel the same).

                          It's not the election - I'm enjoying that; it's much more entertaining than the politics here in the UK, it's the bits between elections.

Get the card, transfer the balance(s) from your high rate cards and you can dig yourself out of debt a whole lot quicker.

                            There is no such thing in SA.  In  fact, it's probably not even legal.  Do you mean they charge no interest on transferred balance, only on new charges, since you switch to their card?

                                    If there are any bastards around here it's me. For your own edification you should stop trying to police this website; it's not yours and it worked quite well without your presence. Furthermore, the members here (including me) don't understand your petty obsession with trying to get other members banned. If you keep it up, I'll start a petition to get you banned so that all this petty griping and false moral superiority of yours can stop nauseating the other members. If you don't like the Soapbox, stay out. Nobody is forcing you to read it. And if it's very existence bothers you, do us all a favour and stop coming to this website.

                                      Don't mind me while I report that as abuse. Btw: how many abuse reports does it take to get one banned? EDIT: I knew I should have quoted you. Thanks for the '1-votes', btw. What's with your immature behaviour anyways?

                                        Thank you for replying but if I'd wanted to hear from an asshole, I'd have farted.

                                          Thanks for contacting me. I'm a little busy right now, so please hold your breath until I get back to you. Edit: Oh look, Norm gave me a 1-vote and ran away. :laugh:
