  John a very good posting there...
  
  Yes I saw the Mercury too and while yes its nice to have favourable postings Im afraid a lot of people, as the Mercury suggests, are disgruntled here in Dover and they are just expressing how they feel. This seems fair enough. Its a free choice, a free speech. I dont think any of us would want a situation where the members can post but only if its favourable...although I do take the point being made by yourself, by The Mercury, and indeed it seems by Gwyn Prosser about talking the town down.
  
  What I would say is that all the members on this Forum Club are responsible members of the community, all fully named and open, not in any way anonymous, and if they are expressing disgruntlement then disgruntlement must fairly exist. I think this is a very important point about our contributors being fully named. We purposely went out of our way this time to dispense with the traditional pseudonyms which gave much leeway to the negative. We were requested not to take this route by various bodies and when we started up again we complied, for the better too as we see.
  
  But to go back to the main point...Although there has been much promised to us Dovorians by way of mega cash and development, so far not a single sod has been turned in pursuit of this goal. Maybe when people see some physical movement forward they will cheer up and may see the light of optimism shining through.
