Well, I nearly put my foot in it there! I fully agree with P/Pete's stance on those unsavoury areas that we don't even need to type again and again. But I have to say when I saw the original posting I thought well, it is an innocent enough question to ask. I was about to type the response 'It is great for a group of adult lads and don't expect too many early nights'.
But I didn't respond due to the debate it seems to have caused.

Would I have been wrong to have answered in that way, clearly only likely to have been understood by adults? Or is the worry that some idiot might have responded with something much more crude than that? Some idiot that surely would have been filtered out by now?
I might ask 'where is the line' but fear that might get misconstrued too (but only by adults!!).
Please don't reprimand me. I am really only trying to add a bit of humour to this clearly simmering discussion.
And Pete, you are the number one source of accurate, up-to-date info on this site. DON'T STOP!!
I must admit that I didn't find the question that offensive - especially compared to some that have been posted and answered without comment.
I'm probably naiive, but I thought the go go bar was just a place where adults could go and watch scantily clad girls dance, but not a place where they would go to pick up prostitutes. There seem to be scantily clad girls dancing on the TV pretty often these days and not that late at night, either.
In many respects I find the consistent reference to ...

In many respects I find the consistent reference to excessive drinking more worrying - it lends an acceptability to it that children reading this site may adopt.
I'm no puritan - I drink and have on occasion (and under duress, of course...) visited 'adult' clubs. I think Mark's question was phrased inoffensively and could easily be answered in a way that would not cause offence - to ban him from asking it is like banning people from buying cars because they might run someone over. It is those who choose to submit offensive postings that should be sanctioned.
Just my point of view, of course...
G~.
thankyou it was a simple question about a place i saw advertised on THIS website,there is a small group of us mid twenties going out for some sking and boarding and going out for a general good time that dosent mean drugs and prostitues, as you seem to understand, the question was not ment to be offensive,regards mark
no i didnt mean to cause offence just a question about a pub i saw on this website and wanted a bit of sensible feedback which i thought i would of got as most people on here seem to be farley sensible, apart from the odd one or two didnt think it would be me : ,
It seems a reasonable question politely asked for a young lad to me, having a laugh is all part of the holiday experience if you are in to that sort of thing, even if you're not no reason why you should care if someone else is.
True, there is the issue of where do you draw the line -don't particuarly want the board to turn into a xxx board either, but if its your board you draw the line where you like, based on your own judgement, complaints etc. It may be a slippery slope, but as skiers ...

Have to say the reason I love going to Bulgaria so much rather than say France or Switzerland is that it's refreshing to go somewhere with a bit more freedom than in UK where we are protected by a truckload of laws from just about everything including ourselves and other people. (I am aware of the irony in this).
Oh my god! I can not belive the amount of quite frankly rubbish that this INNOCENT remark has created. Mark was not asking how much do drugs and prostitutes cost then? just about a bar he had seen advertised. Pete all you had to say was that this is a place best avoided if you are with a family, not chuck your toys out of the pram and demand he not ask such a question! Who the hell made you our legal gaurdian? You are a great source of info on Pamps and I enjoy reading your comments but I ...

Who the hell made you our legal gaurdian? You are a great source of info on Pamps and I enjoy reading your comments but I hardly think the mentioning of Prostition will corrupt our young. Fact there are loads of prostitutes in Pamps I have been approached every time I go there Bj's and Spiders bar are the most favaroute hangouts. But I just say NO THANKS and move on . I must add I have never been offered drugs. Yes this is a message board for all and I agree anyone using it for what Osome may deem to be amoral reasons should be shown the door. Please rember Pete just because you are the most regurluar poster does NOT MAKE YOU GOD!
