As it was said last night this isnt real its cyber and s'pose to be a bit of light relief. If you don't like a thread or the poster don't read it.......unless its breaking T & C then anyone has the right to complaine. I am a great beliver that this site is big enough for eveyone...

True Hayley

We should all be allowed equality of both posting and having an opinion.

All most of us want is a laugh and a shoulder to cry on when things go wrong.

No bullies or dictators.

Morning ladies and cougar

I read Santa's helpers thread last night and too be honest got the jist that she had abit of a set too with another member and a bit upset by it.

What I then went to read she was being told to delete it and other memebers was told to " go back to gen " I was horried to read this on both accounts. Who has the right to dictate to paying memebers what they or where post as its been said already as long as they stick within the T & C. As I have already said on the thread it self would they go tips or records and do the same? They do not own the boards GR does. They have no right to dictate to anyone.
I like chat I like to pop over and say hi to the girls and have always felt welcome and never ignored.

Yes jan I have been told this,

though I don't like what happened to billy's mum I have also read the thread that you refer too.

Both are hurting and upset, both need a little time to gather themselves and then start again - this is not a blaming thread so much as 'a need to know' thread.

We all need to know how hurtful it is to argue to the depths of spitefulness, bullies and others who like to chase people of the boards need to know it is not going to be accepted anymore.

Most on here would just like a friendly site with laughs and when needed to have someone to share tears with.

No offense meant to anyone.

On this occasion I agree with Skwirrel

Giving as good as you get leads to more upset when you get suspended or banned for retaliating....which is often what the "other" person is intending.

Ive learned that to my expense in the past, and have lost a good friend on here who retaliated & got banned.

Its not worth it

All I meant is GR asks us not to respond to baiting etc - sticking up for ourselves can sometimes lead to us being banned that is all I meant Rose.

Look this is not a thread intended for trouble, breaking T&C's by giving as good as you get isn't getting anyone anywhere. Can we please lets not get into costs or rows I have asked rose to remove her thread and david would you also remove yours please. No offense but this is a thread only to remind us its near christmas and we shouldn't hurt people.

Thanks
Gill


Thanks David

Thank you for voicing a lot of peoples thoughts Gill. I did wade through it and it wasn't pleasant reading.
This site has been a saviour to me and others at times. Lets keep it that way.
