I quote Neike:'SBBS are CMoS and Ian Greaves. Not the trolls posting on the board. And I think the distinction is important '.

Whats with all this 'has beef with me'- good god woman, pull yourself together - inject some life into pink thingymajig which has been decidely comatose of late

Open Mind, would you care to share some beef with me?

de man has de slate loose......

It's time for an internet acronym: lol! Quoting me won't make it read 'everyone on SBBS.com is a troll' any more, either, no matter how much you want it to. Despite that, I find it vastly amusing how you cannot find the courage to eMail me and settle this in person, so I've come to the conclusion you, particularily, indeed are nothing but a troll with pure trolling intentions, so you will be ignored henceforth, John Cage. I've held my tongue up to now, but now, you have convinced my objective side, too, giving me no reason to hold back on the statement.

Surprisingly, you, too, are welcome on Arcadia. But of course that would mean subjecting yourself to the scrutiny of the community, so I can understand how you fail to amass the strength to click on the register button. It would ruin your purpose. Pity. -- Shocking, is it not? Neike, too, can rant! But this board suffers enough, so, first and last rant on this particular individual. My sincere apologies to all who are uninvolved in this, you deserve peace and quiet. I would have eMailed JC, but he does not include his eMail address. Sorry.

The problem with Neike and the whole Pink thing is that on the very few recent occasions Neike has made a posting its very rarely to do with Magazine and more focused on criticising other individuals who don't occupy her very narrow virtual world mindset. From the outside it appears to ber very much an exercise in control and protection - somehow reflective of the society in which we live and which Neike apparently is so much against. Ah, students, bless...

I quote her latest posting. In response to 'Turf-Toff-Truth': 'Poor man (?) grasping at straws...' Ouch!!!

Re. the Q magazine piece. Pity there was so little mention on other interesting things happenin' in Manchester at the time. I may have missed it but I did'nt see any reference to the Manchester Musicians Collective which did so much to get things going at a grass roots level

and was there any mention of Object records?It was'nt all New Hormones you know...

Discuss re. SBBS:' there's no authority, and thus no real wish to listen' (Neike) Any views on this ?

I was half-watching a re-run of the cricket from India this morning when it cut to the ads. I turned my back to arse about on the computer when I heard 'Shot By Both Sides' on a trailer for Sky One's 'Battlestar Galactica'. Was I tripping?
