Pedantic forum members

It's the lack of body language, ask any communication expert.

We can only ready what is on the screen and not the emotions of the person saying it.

80% of the understanding comes from body language and intonation, allegedly

In some studies over 90% of peoples impression of you comes from how you speak and how you act. What you actually say is about 7%.

Is this thread basically loads of people looking for justification for their petty behaviour towards liverpoolphil?

It's hard to keep up when you aren't so easily wound up on the Internet.

This thread was not started with Phil in mind.

Certainly hope not, it should be a wake up to those taking things too far.

Rather than a flogging I would hope we could all just stand up, apologise to each other (both sides) and move forward a friends.

I like everyone on here, even Smiffy! I would greet any host ANY forum member with open arms... EVEN Smiffy!

I'd say I'm glad to see someone also has a sense of humour/irony. But then again it is so difficult to know if you are being ironic or if I am then being ironic and if I am complementing you or subtly insulting you or vice versa. This internet stuff is so difficult at times.

And it's 55% how you act/body language and 38% how you speak.

Pedantic irony alert.

Decided to close this thread before it goes downhill (and it will)

To those to whom the thread was addressed (you know who you are) . Please view it as a wake up call and try to be aware of the content of your posts. We do not need every point dissected in forensic detail, neither do people need enclyopedic amounts of information /detail to support their opinions. Just accept that that is their opinion and agree to disagree and move on.

This of course is just my opinion

If we see (or get reports) of extreme cases of uber-pedanticness then expect a quiet word from the mods which will be followed up if not heeded.

We have no desire to limit mass debate, but if a couple of posters are obviously taking things too far and upsetting the forum for everyone else then action will be taken.

Please remember that it is impossible for the mods to view every post and thread, if you notice something that you think is wrong or inappropriate please report it using the report facility,

Finally a happy new year to you all and happy posting
