I'm posting this under my own name, so that you can all have a pop at me. I'm a masochist, you see.

If this is the Brave New World of the Sunbury Centre, people will stay away in their thousands. As long as none of the Obergruppenfuhrers have ever felt offended, we're all happy! Because they say so! Way-HAYYYY...! Try looking at someone else's point of view for a nanosecond, if you're capable of it. Then look at yourselves in the mirror - do you like the view?

On those terms, don't bother with the new site, as it will have all of the bad aspects and few of the good aspects of the previous site's death throes. "Live & let live" is all very well, but only if you people want be bothered to play the game.

And by the way, people LIKE anonymity - it makes it less easy for the thought police to get personal when they rubbish opposing views. Well done for making it so that people feel they can't voice their opinions any more.

Toodle pip, old beans - I won't be back. Doubt you'll miss me anyway. Have a good sneer - it's about the only thing you're good at, after all.

Yup. Hardy souls will still contribute. Over 50 at least in the old days has now been whittled down to about 4. Yourself, P, Shawshank, and me. Rob and Loobs are occasionally posting, Alec very occasionally, and Dom_Pedro to maintain a sense of perspective.

Can't believe that only 4 and a couple more ex SC'ers have thick skins. Must be something else keeping them away.

In my case I can see exactly the same problems arising already.

And then there were 3.
