Not reading your posts as too difficult to decipher and don't want to encourage you, but glad that you're continuing the 100% of 18 posts in the last week or so being about me. It would be good if we could keep this thread on topic though. Perhaps the mods can clean it up a bit? Edited July 16 by Farmer Saint 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing but love, support and positivity from now on, I shall like every post in a show of unity my fellow cot brother, you’ve said earlier you appreciate all the messages of support after your shocking attacks this week. Now I know you dont read my posts, or visit my profile (cough), but a look back will show he has messaged me or included me in 11 of his last recent posts, where I have only replied 6 times, it’s fucking unhinged, so if any fellow cot members think my crowdfund idea is positive about getting him a few ‘sessions’ , # help for farmer Giles, let me know, the candles still burning fella, all da best. Edit. Don’t want to come across as a hypocrite , as I said I wouldn’t respond anymore to him, but Farmer Giles doesn’t read my posts anymore, so technically I’m not and it’s best to let him think he can start a conversation and have the final say, to aid his recovery, nothing but support, all da best fella.

Afraid he fails the fit and proper person test for two reasons. he is a researcher for Football Manager so the risk assessment showed him to be a potential loose lip as he may use the information for his games. Secondly would you trust a person who claims to be an athiest but uses the God in his user name? It a no from the CoT 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A system can't just have systems of reliability in place. It must also be seen to be reliable. The CoT's actions and track record really speaks for itself. As we've seen in world events this week, and before, some people simply choose not to believe anyway. Electronic systems that are open to hacking/ manipulation, or third parties, who in turn are open to attack, don't seem to add anything to the core values at the heart of the CoT's ethos. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
