First ................ I've only just arrived on GR :-D

I will go and delete my comments on Sandie's thread


Second ................. I can explain, probably, why Rosie's thread was removed

A certain person posted on there that it was a "personal public attack on an individual"

I will pm Rosie with the actual post, and my response to it. I will not post it on any thread for fear of starting things off again.

But, I was not intending for the thread to be removed

Good analogy, our Rose.

The trouble is of course that if the WUMS just played with each other .... pause...one could avoid / ignore them as suggested by GR. But they sneak into otherwise pleasant threads, like wireworm infesting potatoes, and just about as palatable.

Too true, Hayley.

My wise old dad once told me I should never care about the opinions of those who are unworthy of respect.

And you're right - you can't reason with stupid.

In my watched threads I have this which is part of someones post from a couple of years ago

Then there are those shout message posts PLEASE DONT POST ABOUT THE SAME PERSON TWICE with hundreds of posts attached with keep getting bumped up - what for. A reminder ocasionally is OK but as a closed post with no right to respond
%3A-%29 %3A-%29


I was wondering how a closed post would work if it wasn't stickied to the top

:-D :-D

Yep I think a few of us do Gwynn * sighs* but you and I have seen a few of these come and go, and when they are totally ignored and cant cry bully or cease to get the attention they crave they soon pack up shop ;-)



Edit: You can not reason with stupid Gwynn ;-)

You're probably right, Hayley.

But I find deliberate nastiness to others hard to ignore.
And stupidity is soooooooooooooooooo annoying.
As is hypocrisy.

The goings on this site never cease to amaze me, :-( I still dont see why the RRer of Sandies thread felt the need to contact GR what business was it of theirs the thread was lovely and it wasnt offending anyone, in time GR would just unstickied it .....

I have noticed how quiet it is on here yet again today, but can you blame people for not posting? Dare to disagree and you are hounded constantly and accused of being a cyber bully!!!!! Tipical behaviour of wums getting a taste of their medicine ;-)

I think, if they haven't removed their posts by tomorrow Jude, maybe a PM requesting it. Some of them may not come on this thread.

Yes - why don't they?

It could lead to some very boring threads - just imagine not daring to say you believe the opposite to a previous poster.

(Cor blimey this will lead to someone ruling the waves on here!!!!!!)

Absolutely Ann, I can't understand why they don't.

AnninGlos Report 12 Aug 2013 15:39

What they should do is remove the argumentative posts, and censure the person/people who keep labouring a point to carry on the argument which makes the thread 'uncomfortable'.

Guinevere Report 12 Aug 2013 15:37

Pathetic way of dealing with it, isn't it?
