Just how cynical are you when you read the forums. Do you believe some threads are started with good intentions or are you like me and believe there's always an ulterior motive?

Have you got more cynical the longer you've been here or were you like that from the off?

I don't think there's any doubt that I'm a cynic regarding just about everything folk say on this here forum.

And I definitely believe the self proclaimed 'nice' folks fully intend to shit stir with some threads they start

Always an ulterior motive as far as I'm concerned, that's why I usually scroll on by! Can always tell when something good can change to the bad in a matter of minutes x

I try not to be too cynical and generally give folk the benefit of the doubt until they show themselves to be a total whalloper. It's a daily struggle in this place though.

See I'm the other way about. I tend to think everyone's an arsehole till they prove otherwise

I know but you do consistently come across as an utter cnut on the forums (meant in the true Scottish, complementary meaning of the word!) therefore I see you as pretty genuine. Always get you the same way, you don't sugar coat the shite.

Depends on the person’s history posting on the forums.

I think you can tell some are doing it for a wind up.

What if it's a first time poster....do you take it at face value whatever shite they spout

Dunno about cynical, but I love that some people make a cheeky comment or two to noise up a thread.

Makes things a bit more interesting

It usually leads to the self proclaimed nice folk getting personal with other users. Always fun to see

I'm generally quite cynical, maybe that's an age thing. I don't think every thread has an ulterior motive. The social event threads blow that theory out of the water for a start.

To me this forum is the same as any other forum - whether it's a football forum, car enthusiasts, Hi-Fi geeks whatever. They all work the same and you see the same behaviours wherever you go.

Noting wrong with a bit of levity in a thread now and again as long as there's no ill-intention behind it.

I'm not a cynic, I just have no time for the arse lickers, wannabe good guys and the thick cunts.

And I don't mind letting them know.

It's a fab forum

Not to be taken seriously

In the end, does it really matter other than to those who take themselves too seriously

I’ve had some serious discussions on the back of the forums. Some people I’ve messaged privately with support or offering advice or they have done the same for me.

It’s not for airing dirty laundry and I tend to avoid forums where it’s clearly gone off topic.

I usually find the forums supportive, informative or a laugh.
