History for LeighboNZ

If you didn't write the headline that's fine BUT and I want to emphasize this, the readers don't know that.  I would have thought you wrote it too and except for one post that kind of implies you didn't write it, you don't clarify.[/quote]

I tried to get them to change it as that is not the headline I used and when I tried to make this clear to everyone, the closed the comments so I couldn't add anymore.

It was experienced in Wellington, it was written by a Wellingtonian for Wellingtonians to as them to be more considerate, I can hardly write about areas I haven't been to even though they are likely the same or worse. I was embarrassed by the events I saw that we don't tend to live up to our kind and helpful reputation.

[quote=Drunk_Monk] I don't know, might be pointless saying this but I think the headline defines the article as one about being ashamed of this city, which at a minimum implies other places are better at your criticisms, and borderline outright says it.

Also I just read your comments in the comment section and they bug me a little too.

Is it a yellow fever problem if one person is a dick?  would you support someone saying its a yellow fever and Liverpool problem if one person wearing a YF scarf and a Liverpool shirt didn't stand up for someone who wanted something but didn't ask?  I would say its unfair to single out yellow fever and Liverpool when the issue could be more widespread.
