"You’ve been here long enough to know that it goes in cycles. Indeed .... it seems somewhat strange at the present though and almost childlike Maybe I’m in the minority then I like the minority" I do agree, partially The amount of people who seem unable to control their urges is quite amusing but it doesn’t seem any more ridiculous than it usually is. But then I dip in and out so maybe I’m not seeing it regularly enough | |||

"I would say I for one have been more active than usual, replacing some real life flirting for virtual flirting. I'm hoping its been in the spirit of the threads though and not childlike, but I can't speak for everyone." It’s just a personal observation and how people interact is entirely up to them too It’s not a dig, as we all deal in our own ways | |||

"We're only at the start of this and people are struggling. They're trying to make sense of an unprecedented set of circumstances, in some cases have lost or have a hugely reduced income, are at home for much longer periods or going to work in jobs that have suddenly become fraught with risk and danger. I'd expect the fab forum microcosm to reflect that. I guess that things will level out once people find their new normal " Beautifully put It’s an easy place to forget the real world for a while | |||

But as people have lost their income there seems to be a lot of irate expression with some dreadful posts appearing during your absence. Great work on the mods for pulling those threads btw, it was the just thing to do. But there’s been humour too and fair play to the creative bunch for the games they’ve invented. Tombola was a good laugh and taken in the right spirit. As for the attention seekers, just ignore them. As we all know, the regular posters remain just as they were so I concentrate more on what they have to say and tend to ignore the peacocks. Great post btw, and probably necessary | |||
