Lucky Escape

Jeez, that guy should keep a track of his drinking :rolleyes:

No it's not. He's bring to peoples attention an interesting story that they might otherwise have missed - as indeed did I - which in itself is likely to spark conversation.

Your way of using forums isn't the only way you know...

I agree

Would have been nice for the OP to have started the conversation off though, wouldn't it?

Otherwise it's just spam.
 
this.

i am glad hes posted this because i would certainly have missed it.

The point is not neccesarily that he shouldnt have posted it - more that he should have added his own opinion to it as well to provoke discussion and make it more than a copy and paste of somebody elses work.

Well he did put 'Source' at the end, so he isn't hiding the fact he just copied and pasted.

EDIT: Granted it would have been nice if he did, but he isn't hiding the fact that someone else wrote it.

i don't really care tbh. he has brought something that interests me to my attention. I think you have an agenda with the OP.

The thread title doesn't say it at all.I came in here expecting you to give us an interesting story of a lucky escape you'd had, or perhaps some insight into your opinion on something somebody else had experienced.

why not hover your mouse over the post and get a few more details or just ignore the OP's threads in future. Your obviously just looking for an argument so this is the last i will look at this thread as your boring the kak out of me. Sundays are boring enough without the cyber police out to get people.
 
I don't see why you can't just shut up and read the story!

If he wants to copy and paste articles let him, he might look like a mug but seriously can we not just talk about the incident?
 
You know, the way he was lying between the tracks I've got a feeling that the train could have went over him without any problems.

And to avoid you steamrolling in to this thread telling him how he should/shouldn't post on these forums.

Just leave it.
 
I hope I wouldnt do what everyone else did and just stand their and wave, would be hard to watch someone die, knowing you could have saved them.
 
This is more of a 'check this out' thread. You cant really have much of an opinion on it can you?

People should stop moaning.
