Ben ,this posting may be as old as the hills but it seems as true today .

Gotta say the same. Some of the regular posters can sometimes get a little 'volatile' over what seems the most innocent of comments.

The written word does not convey the writers intonation and emphasis as does the spoken word. During a spoken discussion you can understand these finer points readily, during a written discussion they are interpreted by the reader - sometimes very different to the poster !!!

I think thats what puts many people off. You only have to look at the chippingnorton.net forum to see that !!!!

Keep up the good work Richard, I know time is short, and websites are time consuming, but keep adding the content, and lets see a few more posters stick their heads above their PC monitors !!!

Long live

I'm putting my hand up. I listen in on the forum quite often, but mostly i don't post anything. I think for fear of kicking off a discussion that goes "wrong".

But i do find most of the information and discussions here interesting and valuable, especially when they represent a cross-section of what's happening in Charlbury.

Any other listeners ready to put their hands up?
