well i came on here to first of all see what trouble pearljammer had been causing as it was mentioned and secondly to try and make peace with the ww people. but i have to say i am a little offended by some of the stuff of this thread! nevertheless (is that a word? ) i will try to clear up a few things. none of this is to start an fight i still hope we can call a truce! 1, for those who asked third watch is a prog that is made by same producers etc as ww and er, is a great american drama that has been given the same (if not worse) treatment by ch4 as ww! 2, for whoever said we should just make our own forum- we have much the same as this. the reason for the posts on ch4 is that we want to keep our profile up and to piss them (ch4 not wingnuts) off as much as poss. 3, spamming of drama forum- this is not intended as spamming we are just bumping up all old posts asking for info on the next series so they know we havent given up. we started on the reach4 forum but now everytime we post there they transfer our threads over, hence the multiple threads! i know it is a pain and it annoys the hell out of me too alot of the time as there are so many threads and mostly talking about nothing! 4, petition threads- there are not hundreds there are 2. we started one on the reach 4 forum (like you lot have too which channel4 duly ignored- so we now have an independant online petition. the second thread is to get people to sign that. 5, the comments about us all being idiots......etc. well am quite offended by that as i said but wont respond as i realise you have reason to be angry- which brings me to........ 6, pearljammer- yes he is a complete idiot . the rest of us do NOT agree with him and i am really sorry if he has offended any of you. ok thats all, sorry it was a bit long winded. hope it clears up any problems any of you have and we can all get along in the future.

I would never think that what one person does reflects on what the rest are like. That's narrow minded and unfair. Although not a third watch fan, I do understand the frustration put upon us all by Channel 4. Plus Warner Bros. way of releasing TWW DVDs a year after their terrestrial showing is annoying. But we're lucky, and I'm not gloating with this, in that we do get DVDs eventually, Third Watchers get nothing. It's clear that Channel 4 isn't quite sure of what it's doing most of the time.

I didn't mean too get angry I just tend to over react sometimes - calmed down long ago. I did not mean anything to the over third watch people. I think I did say in one of my posts on here or on C4 that I hadn't tarred them with the same brush as pearljammer. I hope I haven't upset you Mervale ;D

thanks everyone. glad we can put all that behind us. and lemon no you didnt offend me i was just upset that you took the rest of us the wrong way and thought we were a part of the trouble. i have posted on our own forum telling everyone exactly what trouble pearljammer has been causing so everybody knows not to take any notice of him. and you dont have to worry about his threat to get all third watchers to come over and spam- as far as i can see they all agree with me that he is completely out of order and nobody wants to start anymore arguments. thanks

thats really funny (and mature) pearljammer. i like how you post that on here rather on the tw boards as you know i can ban you. anyway i wont give you the satisfaction of responding to those insults. to everyone else i am so sorry, i hope i didnt make things worse by coming over here. can you not ban or block him?

The side effect of blocking an IP is that other members using the same internet provider might also inadvertently be blocked as well

oh ok fair enough. lets just hope he gets bored eventually and leaves you alone! maybe you need to not allow guests in that case, thats what we have done on the tw boards. i have a feeling pearljammer might have registered there too but has so far not posted.

But then you won't be able to post Good point, though. I know guests can view any forum board here, but only on this one can they post. I shall forward your suggestion to the President and see what he says ;D

thats true but if i wanted to keep posting i could register. i just wanted to come and make the peace first as i didnt know how you would all feel about having a tw person register in your forum! although i suppose i was a ww person first as i have watched it for longer and used to post (v occasionally) in the ww threads before my tw days. i know its a nice idea to be able to have guests post but the downside is that you get people like him who you cant get rid of . its also kind of worrying that he can post under reg member's names!

No he's just using the name, but it says 'guest' underneath so you can tell its not us, we've got our signatures and stuff. I am finding this very very amusing, i have to say

i know - but it is just scary that he can take anyones name. although he doesnt credit everyone with having enough intelligence to realise its not really them. you are right it is more funny than anything else. am a little confused as to how i could do said things with my gran considering a- she is not alive and b- i am a girl! although its not so funny when he starts making comments about religion etc, that could really offend some people!

Yeah i suppose. Yet, although i'm not jewish, i'm pretty certain if i was, i wouldn't be offended by him. After all, he simply seems to be an angry little man thats not even worth listening though.
You are right though, some people could be offended. Did you start a third watch forum or something, and then kick him off?

yip we have one similar to this. he hasnt put in an appearance yet, but i have posted making it perfectly clear that he is not welcome and telling all the others what he has been saying etc.
we only allow registered people to post. have a feeling he might be one of the registered people who hasnt posted yet but often turns up to read whats going on.
