Just a quick explanation explaining why all my PINK threads have suddenly disappeared this morning.... The management have asked that they be removed as they are not appropriate to the boards and I have complied with this. The PINK fund is still in force (and will always be) but the only thread that will be updated now is the Great Wall one. Thanks to those of you that continue to support the fund and me. I appreciate that! Diana xx

Hi Diana, I think that's really sad!! After all there couldn't have been a better cause. I find it ludicrous to suggest that your postings are 'inappropriate' when you consider the stuff that's been on here over the last couple of weeks - especially this last week-end. Keep up the good work. Highest Regards Debbie

Diana, That is a real shame, and I'm sorry to hear it. Why don't you take up Helen's excellent suggestion and create your own website to carry on the good work? Best of luck! CB >|<

It's a great shame Diana but typical you - no fuss, no ripples (despite maybe feeling otherwise) just the facts. You know how much support you have from all of us that think you are BRILL! Keep up the good work - and the training!. The web site is a good idea but in all probability you may not be able to post it's site address on these boards - so word of mouth it is then - and you know how big mine is! LOL Mags xxxx

Diana I agree with Helen & CB it only has to be a one page website one of those free ones, anything like that should do the trick. Really the Majority should NOT let the minority rule, but as you say Helen it seems to be happening more and more. Diana Keep up the good work. All the very best Pat x Mags You and me both (mouth that is) LOL.

I think we should stop accusing 'minoritys' and 'majorities' of GR members for what seems a decision on GRs part regarding Pinks threads. Gr can make their own decisions without the need for people to fire off complaints to have threads removed. So lets not start any speculation, that 'minorities' of people on this board have caused Gr to ask for the threads to be removed. Diana I am proud of your fundraising....my thoughts on this reply are nothing to dispute the good work you do. Elaine x

Hi Pink, Such a shame a few people have to have a moan and spoil it for the majority of us. I agree with the others a web site sounds good. Anne xx

Elaine, it may well be that GR made their own decsision here, but it just seems strange that they do it after the (imho) nasty threads that were put on here the other night, regarding the charity threads. Keep up the good work Pink Christine

Diana, also think the website thing is a great idea! Makes you wonder why GR ask for your threads to be removed but don`t really deal with the abuse! Nevermind. Keep up the good work!! xxxx

If this is the General Topics Board what is the problem, they didn't cause trouble, they helped rais money for a VERY good cause, and it raised awareness, so where is the problem, they have always been supportive threads, I for one think that they were welcome. Bev
