words,im merely stating my own opinion,dont worry about thin,yeh he can fight his own corner,we all can,this is the boards not a kindergarten
just form your own opinions
dont be hanging on to my shirt tail im too busy :D

I’m glad the age limit protects us from kindergarten-aged posters.

I thought I was merely stating my own opinion. But thanks for putting me right, because now I see that referring to someone’s contributions is ‘hanging on to (their) shirt tails’, I’ll have to revise my opinion of your many references to thin’s contributions. Although I don’t think his t-shirts have tails. . . . .

It’s clear he can fight his own corner, he really should have been on the ropes long before now.

It reminds me of a rugby practice when I was about 12. Games teacher brought in the biggest player from the school first team, gave him the ball and told him to run with it. We were told to get the ball from him. Within seconds this guy was literally carrying about 10 of us and the ball down the field. One boy finally clicked that this wasn’t working and went for his legs, at which point the teacher stopped proceedings before the whole pile ended up crushing him.

Of course stopping the pile-up stopped the fun . . . .

I think its despicable the way Thick Slice gets hounded on these boards, can’t you see he is an insecure bloke just wanting to be lurved ?????

I don’t want to be an admirer of thin for all sorts of reasons which I don’t need to go into. But I’m struck by the way he can hold his own against any number of detractors – probably because he has to. Whether it reflects his strengths or his opponents’ weaknesses, he’s still the same.

Surely those who oppose him could think of more effective tactics – unless they secretly prefer the idea of battle to that of victory . . . . . .

your being far too sensible words
for these boards
the morons will take note for 2 days
then will be back to soak some more of my wit

for some its a bit like self harming
like they are picking away at a scab
their own scab that is
cosy and welshy are fine examples
despite all their threats and abuse
im the one smiling while they pull their hair out

some people eh :roll:

Thin has detractors because he brings it all upon himself with his pathetic threads and posts, attempts to wind up and tease and his blatant lies.

For me personally, I just love to mock this afflicted guy because he asks for it. Do I lose sleep over his posts? No.

And as for victory? What do you see as victory? Finally hounding thin from JC and the boards like he has done others? I doubt that will ever happen – JC is thin’s life. Even when banned he used another name to come in here.

I know he brings it on himself – he even claims to bring it on himself with his repeated use of the term ‘wind-up’. Mock the ‘afflicted’ if you like but don’t then complain if he, in turn, replies to you, as some do.

As for victory, ask the people who keep fighting what they see as victory, this isn’t my fight. I’m posting what I observe and my opinions on it. I am not thin’s defender and he seems to have fewer defenders than attackers so I would think few people take his side.

However, I see him posting his barbed posts, and then up to half a dozen people jumping in often with far more extreme insults than he has dished out. He never backs down, they never stop, it goes on and on and on.

And yes, some might say “you don’t have to read it” but this has been happening on threads with general interest topics, not just the ‘banter’ (cough!) threads. And of course, sometimes during the spats some juicy gossip emerges.

I spend too much time in JC to criticise people for regarding it as their life. I do find the personalized aggression from and against thin tiresome. I don’t believe it will ever stop, but I don’t think it should go unchallenged. But I’m glad you enjoy it. Chat should be all about fun
