Well my only comment in the thread towards the last page was:
"What I find hard to stomach is that nature of some of the posts within this thread.
As I sit in the middle of the area of London which was targeted by terrorists on Thursday last week reading racist, anti-cheating, anti-adding, personal flame comments it makes me think if such events as terrorist attacks such as those carried out killing innocent men and women of all races colours and creeds actually make people think about what they say about others.
Perhaps in times such as these we should be a bit more mindful of the thoughts feelings and beliefs of those people that we interact with not only in real life but also in the virtual lives that we inhabit too.
While the people herein have made their comments / feelings well known, could it perhaps be time to remember that the person typing at the other end of that virtual connection is in fact a real person with feelings. Whilst I know from my own experience it is hard to bite your tongue (or check your typing in the case of this mode of communication) and think before you express what could potentially be hurtful or insulting to others.
There is a time and a place for friendly insults / banter... that being when the person you are directing them towards knows your meaning and will take them in the humour that they are meant.
Please lets all try to be a little nicer to each other... sure flame away about some stuff.. but try to refrain from use of insulting synnonyms or what can truly be taken as distasteful comments."

I got a good post in - it read something like...
Crikey it's really late and you guys are still at it - can't you sleep.
Shortly after this everone agreed to log off - thats as about the only thing they did agree but it was at least an agreement.
