Following recent topics, you now have to be logged in to read this forum.

Please think about how you are making Uzumlu appear to neutrals - if I was one I doubt I'd want to go near the place.

wouldnt it make sense to remove the entire offending article so people dont get the wrong impression of the lovely village.

Scunner thats a bit of an exaggeration!
LOL!
Lets be honest whilst I really enjoy CBF it is only an internet forum, not to be confused with real life. A "cyber" row  between a few fellow online  forum geeks hardly constitutes armageddon!

Maybe this is how the Roman Empire ended, rows on computer forums!

Uzumlus a smashing wee place where believe it or not most people dont even know about CBF and get on great.

It might be that not many Uzumlu residents come on the forum but the forum get thousands of hits per month (week even) and many of those will be from people who have never heard of Uzumlu. It's those people - possibly the next house purchaser or rental contract who you will be putting off.

We've proved time and again how infulential CBF can be so don't underestimate the damage that can be caused.

going by that logic they wouldnt buy anywhere in the whole Fethiye area as there have been rows etc about everywhere at times!

Plus if someone didnt buy in a particular area because they read about a row on an internet forum they shouldnt be allowed out unaccompanied never mind considering buying property!

As I say CBF is a great forum but lets get things in perspective

Believe what you want saorise but whatever you think it doesn't alter the fact that new members and browsers will not be getting a very good impression of Uzumlu through this forum due to the posts over the last few months.

I think we are discussing Uzumlu though.

Scunner and Stoop, apologies and you are right.  Inhouse fighting should be kept inhouse.  But it's a shame it's there at all. I would say to all reading this Sariouse is also right.  Uzumlu is a lovely little village (but getting bigger)  We really do have to try and 'get on' because we are a small community, most of us came out 'for the quiet, relaxing, peaceful' life so lets stop slagging each other, the other person or whatever.  After all, doom and gloom, have you thought how many people will turn up at your hole in the ground to say 'goodbye'? I.E. How many people will miss you? [?]
