Maybe if Phil does write something you agree with you could rehash that and pass it off as your own so no one has any issue with the author. Beats me how you all know what Phil writes.

This is the Problem you read stuff on Twitter then somehow associate it with posters on here who don't use twitter we see that a lot on here now. I think a lot of posters get wound up by the filth on twitter then come on here and take it out on us who know nothing of what they post or say.

In some cases it would seriously damage the credibility of any message and in the case of using DLP's stuff that would be one where it's credibility is seriously harmed by who the author is (and Virtuoso being so keen that it didn't get out) Same with the Jackson/King thing in today's paper. Jackson has taken the hump at not getting fed things like the Barton story before the Sun get them. Jackson/Traynor is similar as they haven't exactly been friendly since Traynor's final newspaper article and Jackson (along with a few other Scottish journos) take great joy in causing hassle for JT.

See this gets me as i don't know what Phil writes but a lot of posters do. so because it was mentioned in Twitter it shouldn't be mentioned? I don't get the point you're trying to make here whatsoever. I questioned the credibility of using a blog (and deliberately trying to hide who the author was) written by someone that had been outed. Much the same as anyone would if, for example, I posted a John James (another mentalist who started out as claiming to be a bear before being caught out) blog having a go at bears then tried to hide who the author was.

I thought Virtuoso posted don't mind the source when he posted it If the points are points we all feel strongly about it would be daft not to mention them if they genuinely concern us would it not.

It just looks very childlike to me even when you see snippets from it posted on here, the statement i made was a bit of a joke but in saying that it looks more for wee silly kids to me. It seems to turn adults into kids as well. Here's my tea post I had to laugh a bit when Greg told me how many followers his Dads pub had like it meant something to me, it didn't.

Any snippets you see are reflective of the folk who posted it, not every user just in the same way that if you take a handful of posts on here it's not reflective on all the other users of the site. Could lift 5 BP9 posts and say that all the posters on here are haggis-munching, hill-climbing SNP voters but it wouldn't be anywhere close to accurate.
