who are hell bent on breaking up the United Kingdom.
They may be hell bent on talking about it, but they've (deliberately) made absolutely no progress on it in eight years so I think you can sleep safe.
The machine stops.

Who's paranoid?

I use my real name:

Buddyelf uses a pseudonym.

I have not mentioned the term independence on one occasion.

Buddyelf has.

So has Han Solo.
If it's your real name why did you call him a name whilst we are on strike. Not only is it against the rules of RMC, but it's also inadvisable to publicly engage in behaviour that can be considered bullying and harassment, especially here where managers, including senior managers, lurk. We don't ban name-calling on RMC to be joy killers but to protect RMC and its members.

Disagree with him, just don't name-call on here.

We also recommend people use pseudonyms for their own security. My real name is not TBT although senior managers are well aware of who I am.

Looks like a number of folk have a similar view to me
That doesn't legitimise any view.
Loads of stupid ideas have been popular.
Also, given I have been a member of this forum for considerably longer than you have I suggest it is you that takes your paranoid rant and your energies elsewhere.
We don't do seniority on here.
SNP OUT!
Use your vote, that's why we have a democracy but it's one thing getting rid of one party, next you have to replace them with something.

It's easy on the Internet to be anti-anything, it's just a case of continually throwing cheap insults, Tman is an expert at it.
If you want to be taken seriously though you have to offer up an alternative and be prepared to defend it.

I refer my learned friend to the typical anti-English and anti-Westminsturrrr rhetoric of both the SNP and himself.
Clearly there are many experts around in this particular field.

It is always disappointing when people fail to use the "quote" option properly and end up attributing a comment to someone who actually holds the opposite view.

Perhaps Mr/Ms ADMINISTRATOR you could make the facility more user-friendly for the dunderheads on the site?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

MR ADMINISTRATOR

So disappointed you deleted my post.


I would hardly call ‘dunderhead’ an offensive term.
I did not say it was offensive, I deleted it because of the namecalling was aimed at an individual and therefore it could be considered Bullying and harassment by Royal mail.

I do notice that like many others when challenged you ignore the reasons why I deleted the post and are offended when I merely try to do my best to protect all members and RMC.

But if your desire to post an opinion with name-calling is more important to you than allowing other members to use this site as a resource then, please, set up your own site and set the rules, or lack of them. Meanwhile, I will continue to moderate this site with the guidance of Postman, as I see fit.

Whilst 100% committed to the strike I think I'll pass on all help and advice from a bunch of national extremists who are hell bent on breaking up the United Kingdom. They dream of Scotmail not Royal Mail!
You seem to be very concerned about Scottish independence despite nothing being mentioned in the article about it. We need all the support we can get and your paranoid rant is of no help. Better use your energy elsewhere rather than having a go at folk on here.
He was having a go at snp not anyone on here
Should be using Twitter then
