Firstly apologies for starting a thread about something on CanalWorld, I've been vocal on here previously about people moaning on here about stuff that happens over there, however...
I can't ask this now over there as the thread is locked and I believe that starting a new thread about ones that have been locked incurs being spoken to like a child by Lady Cassandra.
So, what the actual fuck is the score with that thread about 42feet of Prettiness??? Up until now I've not followed it or paid any attention to it as once something reaches a certain amount of pages i find it impossible to dive in halfway through and understand what's going on. It's been locked now which is always a good sign that something interesting has happened.
I clicked on it expecting to find the usual lovers tiff between Phyllis & Tony, only to find someone called MissMax seems to have lost the plot. So can anyone tell me what's been going on and what I've missed? Is MissMax a real person or a sock puppet of somebody else? Secondly if she is actually a she, does anyone know how old she is please?

I think you describe it pretty accurately. She appears to have had some sort of meltdown. Either that or there has been someone who has accessed her account and posted.

She wanted a boat and was advised by several members on what to buy, how much to pay etc. She ignored the offered advice and paid too much for what she bought. She wrote humorous posts about all the problems. A couple of members of CWF (I believe she actually states 5) visited her to assist. I believe she's moored somewhere near Keighley.
Her boat required painting so she painted it all over with blacking.
She then sealed up her mushroom vents and got shouted at by the members for endangering her life.
She left in a huff.
Over the last 2 days she's been back twice to f and blind at all and sundry.
She is a little bit mad.
The thread has been locked.

It was a fun thread where I thought Miss Max displayed a lot of humour which some people seemed to take far too seriously. I can't comment as to whether or not she is real/male/female/old/young etc as I have never met her. Apparently some people did meet her and helped her out so I presume she is real. The thread started to go wrong in my opinion when some people seemed to miss the humour in her responses and started telling her off for things she had said that I thought were downright hilarious. I suspect we have a missed a lot of what has happened in the background in emails/texts which has made it appear to escalate dramatically for no real reason.

There does appear to be a couple of members on there who display very similar 'traits too. I did wonder at one point if she was an alter ego of another member.

I used to enjoy that thread. Having read the last few pages... I would say woman putting brave face on life after emergency escape to boat, beset with little money but a good sense of humour finally ran out of positiveism when someone "helping" wanted paying in kind.

I think I must have missed that bit. Not on. Which member? Be careful about this. MissMax has said a few things about others that tried to help. I have no idea whether her claim was justified or not.

We only know what we can see in that thread, we have no idea as to what has been said in emails/texts or in real life. I prefer not to make assumptions about anyone and hope Miss Max is well and enjoying her life on board.
