And your point is, Keith?

Well... I was pleased, as the posts I asked to be deleted, were, very quickly, too, after I had asked GR nicely to do so.

My point is Keith, that some would be delighted that they reported enough to get me banned, though probably disappointed that I was the only one, and those same people would be over the moon to know that staff were working yesterday, probably prompting them to report even more.

I reported three posts yesterday, in which I had false accusations thrown at me, and insults. Not once did I retaliate with the same, I worded everything carefully, and tried to use reason, but still I got a three hour ban. The post that was reported resulting in my ban is still there on the thread, so you tell me what it was.

Yes I agree, it would be nice to just have a chat, but there are one or two on here who consistently try to make soemthing out of nothing, and accuse people of something they really haven't done. Like the rubbish spouted about 'us lot' whoever that is, using personal information against other members. Not my style, I would never, or COULD never stoop so low. Or another person trying to say we were all dragging up five year old history....????? I still haven't worked that one out.

If the minority of people stopped making mountains out of molehills, and playing the victim, or hiding behind others after lighting the touchpaper, we'd all be a lot better off.

Bet you wish you'd never asked now lol

I cannot for the life of me understand why someone would put up an invitation to view a tree and then squawk like hell when people looked at it.

Then to scream that the site had been desecrated by that was really beyond the pale. NO HARM WAS DONE. It was an open web site FGS. Nobody broke through any security (as there was none). Living people were hidden, certainly when I looked.

The retaliation for the above was a reopened blog which would have been funny if it hadn't had been so damned insulting to peoples' intelligence.

BTW I await with interest Carol Paine's response to the blog.

It would be funny if it wasn't so bl**dy tragic.

I defy anyone not to reply if your name was being bandied about and accusations made about inappropriate relationships between you and your friends husband.

Oh but yeah right.....I'm supposed to keep my mouth shut for a quiet life.

I wonder how many would squawk a hell of a lot louder than me if it was THEM that was being spoken about......

Pfffffffffft

Exactly Muffy. Not many would, and then to be told you're protesting too much.

Yes it was a very childish, immature thing to do on that blog, not just an insult to our intelligence, but pretty damaging to their own moral integrity.

We'll be blamed for it all, it'll be all our fault of course. It won't be anything to do with individual choice, and whether of not that person made her own decision to do what she did, and her responsibility for doing so.

So Keith. Out of interest .......would you show restraint if you were accused of having an inappropriate relationship with another member on here.......sort of chat and move onto the next subject cos it's a chatboard......or would you have something to say about it?

So when you were blogged a year or so back you made no comment whatsoever? hmmmmmmmm ok then.

Not quite right Keith... you fought to clear your name, both on these boards and off, and fought to get your ban overturned... good luck to you... but your reaction to those dreadful accusations was most definitely not *no comment* so please allow others the right to clear their own names, or to debate the accusations thrown at them.

Love
