That's precisely what BCD is for, yes. Unfortunately some pillocks have decided that anyone who dares mention bands like PSB or The Cure is only worthy of having their threads hijacked with mindless and meaningless rubbish, hence the "birth" of a muppet zone called The Shed, where the puerile can live in their own nutcase world without impinging on the rest of us, who have no time for idiocy.

I feel it is time for me to respond.

Yes, there have been some daft threads, I have admitted I started some of them. However some people liked them, check out the views and responses.

I sub sequentially locked all the threads, after several people complained.

I set up the SHED, so people could all post what they want on that thread. Nicos agreed with it

May I ask why you continue to make disparaging remarks about the people who post on that thread, as the rest of the forum is now freed up for people to post about whatever you want to ?

It does seem that having made an effort to keep irrelevant posting off BCD those of us who enjoy the odd daft post are still being attacked for doing so. 'Us and Them' does not stem from the shed, but attacks on it. As I said before, it doesn't matter what your username, avatar or signature say, it's what you post that counts - I would rather post and see others post some nonsense and some relevant stuff than read and be drawn into any form of nastiness or attacks on individuals or supposed cliques within the site.

The fact that the Shed exists now doesn't change the fact that because of the rubbish posted on here, the "community" has become divided between those who want to post shite and those who don't want shite on here..... yes the Shed is a step in the right direction if it keeps a lid on the pollution of the site, but that doesn't in any way mean that those who continue to post rubbish are cleansed of their "crimes against the "community"" just because they now have a dedicated shite area :banghead:

In my humble, honest and probably not wholly fair opinion, the best solution would be to stop the posting of rubbish, not creating a rubbish only zone that will just polarise the membership, as we have already seen in the first few days of the Shed.

I'm sorry but from what you've just posted on here it's crystal clear that it's you who keep dividing us into 2 groups and not us. We have nothing against you posting seriously so what's this all about? :scratch:

Jeez... can't everyone just chill out?

There is only a problem with 'Sheds' if they start to suggest that they are an exclusive group that no-one can join... as far as I can see that hasn't happenned.

BCD isn't overrun with as much bullox now and Shedland is there for anyone who wants to go - IT'S NOT A PROBLEM!

Group hug?

That's not crystal, it's tupperware. Go back to Ron's post about the Shed people being a special group of martyrs who are being victimised, and that "we" can't drive "you" away etc etc.....

The last thing I want on this site is two groups, far from it. Few people besides Spotnick have done more than me to try and bring the entire community together, so don't start accusing me of being divisive - it's not me going out on a limb to rebel against the majority, is it?

Well only time will tell, I suggest though that as you believe the Shed is a step in the right direction, as you know where you MAY encounter a rubbish post, you can now avoid it.

Ah crap.

These type of threads is the start of it all anyways. Nothing good can come out of this.

I think ChrissMari's point was about the nicknames... not the thread, and I have to admit, I'll all fucked up since one week because of these nickname because I can't tell who's who without having to check in my database.

But what can I say? that's exactly why this site allows to change the nickname after all.

For the rest, maybe you people shoult tone it down a little? :skeptic:

I'm closing this thread, as I said, nothing good will come out of this.
