    At this rate all we’ll have left to talk about is bikes! 😆

    You too?

    I try to avoid the Polytick and tyre threads because they are rather heated. Like a Skoda rear window.

    Not from my experience. I posted one asking the difference between Crows and Ravens, it didn’t get a single answer. Which kind of verified what I suspected – no one really knows. And which was all that I wanted to know 🙂

    I thought it was quite civil really, given the somewhat limited social skills on display most of the time

    difference between Crows and Ravens

    Well, both are of the genus Corvus, the family Corvidae and in the Passeriforme order. However, ravens are among the largest of that genus, so the easiest way to tell is to see how big it is.

    If you see a rook on it’s own it’s a crow, if you see a load of crows together they’re rooks.

    You’ve got to admit, though, it can be murder telling the difference some times.

    Crows and rooks are very easy to tell apart. Rooks have a pale beak and a slightly more pronounced forehead than a crow. A crow is like a smaller raven which in turn is like a bigger crow.

    #edit Also the original thread referenced in the title didn’t seem *too* unpleasant given some of the content on here. Maybe the mod in question was manstruating.

    Crow is a Union leader.
    Raven used to present ‘Newsround’.

    Hope this helps.

    What I don’t understand is you get some adults who will help, reply and offer advise.

    You get others who post for either the sake of it or to bicker/pick/get a raise.

    That will be the big hitters, then Hora. Took three threads today on roughly the same topic for the rubbish to stop and it to be a genuinely interesting read.

    Its wearing, it really is. ramming the same argument down your throat and not excepting that others will have a differing opinion to you. You wont change them like a light switch FFS.

    Heres an example.

    Why? Your wrong, heres a link to a fact/website that must be correct that proves you are wrong: http://www.Icreatedthiswebsiteinmybedroom.com/Crowisntlikehim

    Just admit you are wrong, or you are a **** cock fella. IF you don’t admit it I’ll look at your profile and follow you around each subsequent thread taunting you. So you are wrong right?

    The one this thread refers to was actually quite an interesting read up until the moment Drac killed it, unless he also deleted stuff I’ve not seen

    I love the fact the term “Banhammer” took off on here. There may have been others using it, but I think I brought that one in.

    The fact I got it from a site full of argumentative, geeky role-players is an irony which hadn’t escaped my notice 😉

    I wish they would. All of them. Remove them as soon as they start. Seriously I do.

    Or how’s this for a radical suggestion: just don’t open them. HTH.

    It never ceases to amaze me just how wound up some people on here can get after deliberately opening a thread they have no interest in, then reading it, then blaming the content of said thread for their angst.

    Yes. You’re very clever aren’t you?
    Where did I say I did that, or get ‘wound up’? Your words not mine.

    Quite often threads are steered towards politics from something fairly innocent. Then the petty bickering and points scoring takes over, and I just get sick of it TBH.

    I have the same conundrum regarding the difference between “Raisins and Currants”.
    Tastier than a Crow or a Raven for that matter
