CHEDDA WROTE :

"""I thought when i first joined this forum you were intelligent and i was genuinely interested in your postings. Whats happened ? This is pure playground stuff " but teacher he started it " or "anyway i've been here longer than you" , "na na na na na" next it will be "i can't hear you i can't hear you". Get a grip if someone insults you kindly remind them of their mistake don't bite straight away that way you lose for sure. ""

The individual who called meat eaters hypocrites because they opposed at the same time cruelty to animals was to say the least wrong. But Chedda please give credit when credit is due. I did not , as you did (to Lysi ) call him an amoeba , so there .

It seems to me that lately everyone has been calling everyone names and that is not acceptable. It is a disgrace. In a way you can expect that from some people but, I was shocked to see that I lot of the people I had respect for, are doing the same thing. No one is arguing that some people are immature and rude, but to drop to their level is not the answer. Especially for grown men and women. When someone is saying something we dont like, we can of course disagree and even be agree, but swearing at them is worse than what they are doing.

Andri_cy , surely you have a sense of humour , I did not mean to call whatshisname Amoeba , Chedda started it by calling Lysi that , I merely elaborated on the likelihood of Lysi interpreting the meaning of the word by offering a modern and an up to date definition.

Quite True!!

I Say make love not war!!

Enough Georges Bushes (and others) out there that blow things up and out of proportion!!

We don't need to bring them in here too!!

[Great White]

Yes, but I AM CYPRIOT, and this is my country too!

"If there is something that we don't like about our country we will change it ourselves." Ourselves?? As in, us Cypriots? Again I'll say... I am Cypriot!

So quick to assume I am English. tsk tsk.

quick to jump on and hoohah that you are cypriot too
all u do is critise them and their mentality.......and boast how u tell shop assistants off as they dont treat u the way u deserve to be treated....geesh!

Anastacia,

I appreciate that you support Cyprus so much but living in Australia with your family might not give you the best view to assess how it is to live daily in Cyprus today.

And yes, Cypriots, most of them, are not "critic friendly". They always find an excuse to criticize the critics... negative criticism, not constructive criticism, unjustified criticism...

Some of our criticism might be a bit too much, fair enough. And we obviously are not that unhappy here. But we still can voice our opinion. If the only reply I get is "leave the country if you don't like it", I can only think that the level of maturity of the poster is not exactly where it should be.

By the way, this is not an attack towards you. I like your posts and you seem to be very moderate in your views which I appreciate.

Best regards
Laurent

Why do Cypriots who dislike the British need to come to an ENGLISH language forum to do the moaning?

Why do they get so defensive about any criticism of Cyprus?

Why can they only reply to a criticism with one of their own (relevant or not) or say "if you don't like it leave"?

Aren't there any Greek language forums they can do the whining on?

BICKER, why do the BRITISH get so defensive about any criticism of BRITAIN & THE BRITISH ?
It was BRITAIN that caused most of the trouble in cyprus with there divide & rule tactics & there support for the TURKISH invasion & occupation of cyprus.
And the BRITISH still occupy cypriot land with there free military bases.
Maybe you should join the I LOVE ENGLAND & THE QUEEN FORUM or the ENGLISH HAVE THE BEST HOOLIGANS FORUM ?

Lysi,

You just won the award for the "Most Immature and Stupid Post"... Congratulations....

Thanks for the award, but cyprus is not a BRITISH COLONY anymore, apart from the free military bases. I will continue to let people know about all the problems that BRITAIN has caused cyprus
