I don't know why anyone bothers to post on the BBC Cornwall forum. It's full of anti-Cornish arse'oles who have nothing better to do than wait for a pro-Cornish post to ridicule. They also close at 10pm - how antiquated is that, an internet forum that has a closing time? The only good thing about that is it minimised the time that certain Australians have to post their crap comments..
Yes, I totally agree and see little point in anyone from here bothering. As far as I can see there is no-one there that has any importance in Cornish matters. They seem to be just idiots who hunt around, mundane to banal topics. Looking at the Cornish thread, ther are probably a couple at most with any connection to Cornwall.
Again, it is about presentation - the way topics are posted just invites hecklers a lot of the time; rising to the bait just makes it worse.
For non-political Cornish topics or any other nationa/international stuff it is a really good board to use - huge range of opinion and ability on there.
