don't worry!


Rose is quite right though ......... if you click on Request review, it takes you to a box, and it is IMPOSSIBLE not to know what you are doing. It even reproduces the posting that you are complaining about!

I've just Requested a review of this very posting, and the following is what then shows:-

I then came back to the thread, and edited the posting to show the result




However, when a posting or thread is removed for "abuse", then it seems impossible for it to be resurrected. Or to get a reasonable response from them!

Don't even think of giving up.
You have helped me before and you have come up with the goods.
How ridiculous thay any one would suggest such a thing.

If you do press 'Request Review' by accident, as I have done a number of times.... it won't be sent unless you actiually fill in a comment.

Didnt see it but maybe a family member/friend/new family etc, spotted it and didnt like it being there. As i said I didnt see it. I'm only guessing.

I'm sure you have the support of all of us who regularly read your replies helping other people. Don't lose any sleep over this one. Just have another shout on here if you feel angry still.

Not on this board surely. I thought that was the domain of the Chat board.
Starr1, I have never seen your threads be abusive.

I don't know what it was. I just got a PM to say that one of my posts had been reported. No explaination at all, so I don't know who reported it or why.

Could it have been a mistake? I've occasionally had replies from people I have tried to help stating that they have got in a muddle and clicked on the Request review button in error. Just a thought - hope it makes you feel a bit better. Cx

Was it the same sort of topic Andy?

I know that some people are a bit sensitive about looking for living / possibly living relations. But reporting someone for abuse seems a bit heavy!

Andrew Report 3 Feb 2010 12:50

Same thing has happened to me for no apparent reason. I couldn't check because the thread got deleted.

I wouldn't believe it possible of you ... what was the reporter thinking of?

Is the thread still there?

Havn`t seen the thread concerned Starr........but sorry to hear you `ve been reported, hopefully GR will see no abuse has gone on....... it does make you lose your faith in people though dos`nt it.

Your such a help on many threads I read and contribute to myself, please don`t let this matter put you off helping people in the future.


Best wishes
