Soft Punishments for Serious Lawbreakers ?

And you get a free rein do you?
Wibble,

Thank god we have you and your virtue here as the moral conscience of the board.

I have no idea about his medical condition but ha seems well enough to continuously post contrarian rubbish, travel and play bowls.

You're an oncologist are you?
 
I put it to you, that people at that age who apparently still work as a landlord and then still find time to post large and regular posts on a forum are hardly the most ill of people.

He may well have cancer, and we wish him the best with that, but it obviously isn't restricting him.

If someone decides to put themselves into the heat of the kitchen then they get treated just the same as anybody else.

No one has a requirement to post.
Although not addressed to me as it’s about me, let me answer. I have had prostate cancer since 2010. Having had it removed I was told 3 years later I was cancer free, only to be told a year later it was back. Salvage radiotherapy killed most of it but it’s still there and growing slowly. It’s not yet affecting my daily life. Getting older will take care of that. I am otherwise fit, active and determined. I don’t do sitting around too well and having multi tasked most of my life see no reason to stop now. Yes I am a landlord and try hard to be a responsible one. It takes a few hours each week, enough to make me self employed. There being no gas in my rental properties.

I want to be treated like anyone else! I would like everyone to be treated with respect. Something that some other posters constantly fail to do.

I was 81 this year. Something that often surprises those encountering me for the first time. Indeed someone only this week said he thought I was 60! I don’t think he was trying to flatter me either. I still play bowls at least twice a week during the winter. Once outside in all weathers and once indoors. I am continuing to improve every year and for the third year in a row reached a County semi final. Not yet a final though. That’s the next target.
 
I'm curious, why would you believe he's older than 80?

Also, I do find it amusing that the middle class 'lefty' guy is on here defending convicted landlords......Well, come to think of it, it's to be expected.
Just who do you think is a convicted landlord?

Just in case you think it was me let me assure you I have never been convicted of anything. Especially to do with my rental properties. I have never even been charged. Losing a fraudulent insurance claim didn’t mean I was convicted of an offence! I wasn’t charged with one! The claimant was awarded damages in a civil action.
 
It seems you are being ignored!

Genuinely why I don’t bother here now (despite being a member for like 15 years I think).

You get dog’s abuse. I stick up for you I get abuse. Mod (singular) makes a token comment and does nothing. QED.

This board used to be popular for a good reason. Now it’s the opposite for a good reason.

Only one person coming off badly from this exchange. And it’s not you.

Dear oh dear, cry me a river.

No you misheard - I said 'shifty'.

You do understand that wissie doesn’t give a s*** if people disagree with him. He puts his point across and stuff what people think. If nothing else I admire him for that. Not his beliefs but his not give a s*** attitude. We do actually have common ground on one or two things amazingly.

As you should be only too well aware - you can give people FACTS but it won't necessarily make them change their OPINION - and every one on here defends their right to have one of those!

If the Mods took action for every unwanted (by whoever) opinion expressed, we'd soon just be talking amongst ourselves.

Are you trying to diminish the noble Dan's virtuous defence of the elderly and infirm.

I for one appreciate that Dan is on a higher level of goodness than the rest of us.

Back to the thread now

I think that is well understood except by those who think their opinions are facts
