Hi David After I sent you a pm yesterday giving you the details of our charity you deleted one of your own posts which I'm sure a few people here read. There you implied that people might think I'm a liar. Could you explain to me the reason(s) why you have deleted your post of yesterday where you said these words: "JJ I am still awaiting your chairty, we wouldn't want people to think you're a liar."My reason for bringing it up is that the charity and I as the chairman of the charity find it totally unacceptable that people for no reason at all imply that people might think that I might be a liar. It's not the profile we're trying to promote in the real or virtual world and it does nothing to support the charity or the unfortunate people we're trying to assist. Jan I didn't delete any post.

jan, not that it's any of my business, but don't take anything on this forum too serious, esp not in the off topic sections, or any other thread that strays out.
i like you positive attitude.

Hi David
I'm profoundly sorry if I'm wrong, David. Francis and his staff will welcome you with free coffee or tea if you call in at our offices in Redcar or Middlesbrough. And noddy, yeah you're right perhaps I took it too serious, it's just a thing that I care a lot about. Happy Sunday to you both Jan

Happy Sunday to you both Jan Well...I got the details...if I don't go down, I will send somebody to get in touch. The rest I don't want in public as the one thing I hate about charity is everybody knowing, that is the wrong reason.

"considering discussion about "truth" ... has anyone tried to type "failure" in Google and press "I'm feeling lucky" button ?" A better one would be to type "corruption and croatia" That would be funny! Well, obviously Google is far away from your sence of humor ... You shoud "spam" them too with your "bright views" ...

OK< I retract what I said about croam taking drugs. He did confess to drinking though.
The point to this thread is that no matter what you think - pro, anti etc you should be able to speak up and also to debate your points of view.
Croam is right, the hit rate must have jumped a lot as many more people are posting, more people are reading too.
In the internet industry it is normal that we get some cash for drawing visitors and effectively making much of the content on here. BUt we do it for free and our valuable contribution to the site, with populating it and with updates on info - should be valued, not squandered with slander next to our names.

Oh, goodness! Croam and Pipastro - the point I am trying to make to both of you is that no matter how many positive, "intellectual", funny, helpful posts that either of you make, it does not give you license to follow each other round for an hour and engage in a pathetically immature discussion. (Although - now here's a thought - why not do it via PMs? I'd have no problem with that!) Pipastro, the crude sexual references...those weren't the ones I was refering to, although what you mentioned is a rather dubious subject matter at best. To all: DON'T respond in kind to any insults, that's all too easy. If someone insults you and you sink down to their level, you are just the same as them. Or, in some cases, you have just fallen into their trap. Such messages will get deleted. I am sorry if I take a while to do so...I am one person! And I apologise for having work, friends and interests, and for not being glued to these forums permanently! Oh, and please stop jumping to conclusions. Croam, the joke (for that is what it was) about the package from David - I was replying in kind to him when he mentioned that someone female (for he referred to a "her") had complained to me about him. That didn't happen, so I thought I would mention to him something that he knows perfectly well isn't true either. (For what would I be doing in Middlesborough?) About branding...sheesh! Taking it a bit too far! In fact, the idea of this here came from the Proboards Support forums - they do it there, check it out. But yeah, they probably got the idea from Hitler... I like the idea of visitor numbers LEAPING because people on here are engaging in a conversation. I picture people over on a gossip forum: "Hey guys, forget the fact Christina Aguilera's gotten married, there's SEVEN PEOPLE talking about themselves on the Visit Croatia Forum!!!11"

OH Anna I love it when you get all authoritarian! Its freezing here in Zagreb, but you warm me up like a magnesium block on fire! If you dont have a husband (or dont want him anymore) You can come over and we could have a lovely Croatian wedding! I promise to make a good woman of you. You could make me a co-webmaster - promise to be a good pip.......... The only problem there is with you branding me is that people will not take my intellectual posts seriously. I have been commenting on real world stuff an dthe real experience or living and working in croatia. The only other allegedly sexual references I made was refering to a hole (could be golf, door hole, bunny hole, ear hole) and the gimp. The latter was in a movie and is an analogy often used by comedians (even on the BBC). If I caused any offence to wannbe gimps or if gimp is derogatory then I apologise from the bottom of my heart and send a thousand apologies. Now can you please remove the slander? Im no longer a bad pip coz Im in luuuuuuuuuuuuuuve:) be cool, be pip

Hi pip
"The only problem there is with you branding me is that people will not take my intellectual posts seriously."
You're wrong, most of us are and acts like adults and appreciate the contents more more than the wrappings.
