Taking a little break from the forum 09:50 - Jun 19 with 6924 viewsunbelievablue

The trolling and politicking in response to tragic events is getting me rather down.

Only bothering to post this as some people have sent me PMs in the past enquiring about my well-being given my history of depression. Apologies otherwise for the 'look at me' nature of it.

Feels like the country is so divided at the moment - it's been coming a few years where the rise of Social media etc and everything being so instant means there is no room for nuance or shades of gray.

If you aren't for something, then you are against it - no balance at all is allowed and people becoming painted in positions that don't reflect them as everything is so polarised

Anyway, I'm waffling so I'll stop

Don't blame you. Forum has been fairly unreadable for a while, albeit previously it was the Mikc ranters from both sides rather than stuff that actually matters

Yes. Please do this, as presumably if you do any further update blogs they would come through from Just Giving... so we can update on here, but would be good to hear how you're doing on it anyway, unbelievablue.

That's a shame. You're one of the good ones.

As I said last week, I will be doing my 5 Ascot previews and then Saturday is my last day on here for a while too.

Sadly, certain 'characters' and the same negative stuff happening has made this far less enjoyable than when I first joined.

I must admit I don't blame you. I often don't bother to log on and just read a few posts and decide I don't really want to post.

I know it is possible to just go for the football posts in the settings but I enjoy a lot of the other posts and it is just the politics and, as you say, the bickering on the 'tragic events' posts makes me want to stay away.

I know that if we all thought the same way Phil and Gav would be out of a job so I always come on and click a few adverts while here.

It is about 47 days till the football kicks off again and hopefully we can start talking positively about Ipswich Town!

There's very few willing to be in the middle, consider all sides and come to logical conclusions based on evidence. If you and Rommers go it will be two less. I hope you both reconsider.

Feel similarly (luckily, without the depression).

You'll be a big miss mate.

You're doing your bit to put some positivity back into the world though, as so many people are. A few drops of negativity seems to taint an ocean of positivity.

I'm always at the end of a PM if you ever want a chat.

Keep on running...

Nice of you to say but I've made up my mind this time and I plan on sticking to it until at least the season gets underway.

My mates are back from uni so we are doing something for my birthday the other day on Friday during the day, then Romford dogs, then out clubbing somewhere. Meaning I shall include Saturdays racing preview in fridays one.

So In fact I shall be gone from here Friday rather than Saturday.

Keep the CRS in shape for me. You can be the new leader in my absence ;)

What is the CRS of which Rommy was never the leader please?

I have seen it mentioned a few times but have no idea what it is.

Is it something worth being a member of and if so, where do you get an application form?
