All you've proven is that you will take every opportunitiy to attack VM and promote Sky, you seem to be the only person who thinks your proving any other point.
Either that or you just enjoy winding everybody up

That's the problem though. You have not proven your point. The only thing you have shown is this inability to provide any kind of sensible approach to this discussion. You are also very presumptuous, so if you say something, you automatically declare that you are right.

I remember some time ago, some people arguing, and the topic was closed because of that... and I felt the information was vital! Now its buried in the lost topics somewhere...

Its the reformed smoker syndrome, there is no one more holy or knowledgeable than someone who has apparently seen the light. Personally I cant see the point of it, it just comes across as very childish to be continually boasting that mine is bigger than yours, I mean it would be similar to me going on to the Sky forums and sending in post after post after post continually telling Sky subscribers that their product is crap compared to VMs, then wondering why people on the site are fed up up with me, oh well.

Re: Virgin Media in talks over bringing back Sky

I doubt there are many forums where if someone without the service carried on the way he does they wouldn't get banned. If this were a forum for Vauxhall users and somebody with a Ford car kept entering debates saying my car is so much better than yours, I doubt they would last five minutes.As I said in an earlier post perhaps we should admire the tolerance of the mods on here but I think there comes a time when the people who do have the service should be considered.

Re: Virgin Media in talks over bringing back Sky
Im entitled to an opinion and to give it im afraid.
Its not my fault your services are not as good as Sky.
I've answered the questions put to me here, its funny how on the previous few pages people were jumping all over the Sky One stats until it was pointed out to them that they were not as bad as they thought, nothing made of it since, stangely quiet in fact.
So you start to attack me instead - fine by me.

If people are dicussing Ford cars on a Vauxhall forum the people with ford cars are entitled to comment especially if what the Vauxhall owners are saying is simply wrong.

Yes because of VM's possible tie up with the Phorm spyware system , No other reason.

They are only wrong in your less than humble opinion, and you look at all these arguments through sky tinted glasses. The fact that you are even annoying Sirius who has 'sick and tired of VM' in his profile should tell you something, but it wont. The point is that you could argue Sky is great without winding people up but then that is half of the fun for you isn't it? You will say it isn't but it is quite clear you are just a wind-uip merchant and if you weren't winding people up here you would be doing it in some other forum for playstation 3 or something else
