The original "What's annoying you today?" thread has been moved to a private section of the forum only viewable by the site's administrators and moderators.
We've taken the decision to do this after all of the posts which were made in said thread, which are best forgotten about, earlier this evening. Of course, the thread was very well used - we'd be mad not to replace it, so here's a "version two" thread.
Generally speaking, we're quite lenient with very few rules on this forum. A rule I'd like to implement for this thread alone is for it not to be used to target any users of the forum. If you have an issue with any user on this forum and wish to discuss it with them, please use the Private Messaging facility, as this will prevent the entire community getting involved and escalating the issue even further!

(20 Aug 2014, 12:06 pm)Jimmi I'm terrified that someone I know will spot me talking photos in Durham, I think I took a photo on service 20A and someone from college was standing at the front of the bus, I'm just glad I've finished college now. Also I had to try and get on an X21 to Bishop Auckland without my friends who were waiting for the Diamond spotting me.

(20 Aug 2014, 12:07 pm)Tom I've always been terrified that someone will find me taking photos - and now it's finally happened.
Even in Darlington or Durham I was worried someone would be there!!

(20 Aug 2014, 12:05 pm)Tom Taking photos of a bus station though? What will they say to that?
I'm not embarrased - it's just that they'll constantly piss me off about it.

(20 Aug 2014, 12:19 pm)Tom No they haven't thankfully! They might of, but they might not have.
To be honest, I don't think they would have as it's one of the people who like to irritate me.

(20 Aug 2014, 12:23 pm)BJ10VUS To be honest, if they're as irritating as they sound, they would have probably said something by now if they were going to make a thing of it. Don't worry about it! I'd get it if you were going running round the bus station acting like an idiot, but if you weren't doing anything to stand out then maybe they didn't see you?
