Aus/NZ forum becoming abusive.

    Sorry for posting it here Watna but I see very little being done.

    I am starting to see a lot of abuse and racism accusations being thrown at the Australians on the Aus/NZ forum of late.

    I understand that with many more people emigrating to there then opinions of the country will vary quite wildly depending on individual experiences and with a larger volume of people then there will be a higher volume of negative experiences.
    However lately its moved from mostly Aus/NZ informational and general experience sharing to a good few Ireland vs Australia abusive arguments.
    Now personally I have been guiltly of being overly defensive on some matters, something that I have agreed wont happen again.

    However I was under the impression that there would have been something added to the forum to remind people that many Nationalities post there and that it is "Australia/New Zealand" and not "Irish People in Australia or New Zealand".

    As D said.

    No good can come of this thread, so I am closing it for now.

    If everyone agrees there is a need to re-open it, by all means PM me.
