RR = Report.
It used to be called Request Review, hence many of us use the abbreviation RR

OP = Opening post. ( or Opening Poster)
Christina (Lancashire) started this thread, so her first post is the OP

Holes = where something has been reported. Instead of the original text, in italics is wording along the lines of 'This post has been requested for review'

Either I read the thread before posts were RR'd or I'm going blind as I didn't see
any holes.

Elaine, there was nothing wrong with your post so it can't have been you.

Far to many threads reported and also removed,

I'm beginning to wonder if it's worth my time posting anything for fear that it will either get reported or that it may be cause for complaint from some members

No wonder the community boards have become a place to avoid for lots of members

There were several 'holes' in it, icluding the OP - must have been after you read it.

So if the OP RR is upheld, the whole thread goes :-(

When I added to it a couple of posts had been RR'd but not the whole thread!

I only read the thread 15 minutes ago and it hadn't been RR'd.

I wonder if someone from GR deleted the thread.

It might be because there was slight irritation that Ancestry (and GR) tend to freeze when free access is allowed.

There is something in the T&C about not criticising other sites.

It's the flaming Board Police taking it upon themselves to impose T&C which don't harm anyone. :-P

What happened to Paul's thread about Ancestry's free access this Bank Holiday Weekend?

Just tried to post on it again and it was whooshed away!

What was so wrong with any of the postings that someone had to request review!!!
