The reason why I stopped posting and visiting is because I cannot stand the attitude of some on here and the opinionated nature of some.
This should be a place where people get together to talk about our wonderful interest in amazing vacuum cleaners across the board.
I've seen people argue with each other on here. Be opinionated and even once saw a comment about someone having a jab at someone who works at Bissell who they do not know, who assisted a member of this forum with their Bissell vacuum cleaner!! Just because the person works on a customer service phone line, someone on here had the audacity to make a comment that this person works on the phone and this means the person hasn't got an education or is somewhat thick!! I personally found this very insulting as noone should judge someone based on their job as we do not know what they have been through in their life! At least they are working! I am not sure what that has to do with a vacuum cleaner forum and it was from then on I decided I didn't want to keep visiting this site anymore.
Having looked at the comments on this post, it looks like things have not changed and there is still a b*tchy attitude on here of which I rather not be associated with.
With regards to the Facbook group. I did try to join and for some strange reason my application was not accepted. Again I see attitude by the moderator AlexHoovers94 (I will not post his full name here, but you all know who he is) who refused it. I did not say or do anything, so I am still confused why it was not approved as the groups or forums should not be 'clicky' and should be accepting of whoever wants to join them.
The world is full of hate and nasty people, its a shame that this forum and groups online cannot be a place of love and acceptance and generally a place where we can go to enjoy talking about our favourite pastime.
I really used to enjoy the forums back in 2000 - 2001. This is my experience.
