Carol, you make good points. However, this is not supposed to exclusively be a travel forum (otherwise I wouldn't have created the other boards!) and of course discussion of problems or difficulties people have is more than welcome.
The main issue is that some posters seem to be quick to "crack open" the funnies or sarcasm or, in a few cases, insults. Sure, those can be appropriate sometimes (except the insults!) but I think that if a user has decided to come to this forum and post a genuine question, it must be frustrating for them to see it degenerate into some kind of comedy club routine or a slanging match.

So Slatkica~Sweets.... you were just a young girl Do you know Slatkica personally? Her nick gives association of the young girl, but she/he could be some 60+ year old man with long curly moustache ;D (no offence to anyone) looool! No,no one here knows me personally, and no I am not a 60+ year old man with long curly moustache

So Slatkica~Sweets.... you can fall for the lie. I mean you were accused of being me until I wrote to Irac that he should leave you alone... because you were just a young girl Thanks. But now I'm a bit worried I'm gonna have everyone thinking im 12 years old lol p.s why the constant translating of the name?

Sweet....This is the same girl that I talked to before that is in College eh? You are under the age of 25? We had talked about your name being spelled incorrectly, do you remember? To me any female under 30 is a girl.... sorry. I wish I could still be called a girl but I think it would be stretching it a bit.... I am 39... I have come to the harsh reality I will never be called a girl again...... ;D ;D ;D ;D hahahahahahaa ;D ;D ;D Enjoy it while you can.....

Guys, please stop this personal attacks, nobody is interested in them.
I know that it is easy to get upset with some unfair, often untrue accusation by some people on this forum, who are constantly defaming Croatia and her people, but the best (IMO) is to challenge them with truthful arguments. We all get upset, but hatred, personal insults do not lead to anything.
Make love, not war, as they use to say it in the 60's!

Make love, not war, as they use to say it in the 60's! People in their 60s mostly can't make love, so they make war instead. .

I thought this site was called "Visit Croatia" - it certainly does not seem that way with all these slanging matches - I am certainly fed up of going into site and all I read is squabbling - people want to visit this site as it was intended to gather information about Croatia not to read what is being posted even after Anna asked for it to stop. Please stick to topics that are of interest for anyone planning to visit Croatia and for those of us who have made Croatia our home - thankyou

Right on, Valj! But some people are constantly posting false or negative info about Croatia, which causes anger and sometimes "over the reaction" in some of us!

To be honest I am getting tired of the personality disputes too. I think the point is well made when even the thread started by Anna appealing for it to stop has degenerated into yet another squabble.

Fantastic. A thread asking people to please not engage in public slanging matches degenerates into...a slanging match. And better yet, it's a rehash of the same tired old stuff from a few years ago.
How people have the time to devote to this petty squabbling on a forum is beyond me...how they have the INCLINATION is utterly baffling.
Enough. Time and time again, I've said if you want to carry on with these arguments you can do it off the boards. No one on here wants to read it.
