Free members can't post on the boards or contact their hot matches but they can complain to GR.

Hi Heather, went back to look at the posting, and reading it as "can". Which is a cheek if you have not paid. I dont mind being corrected, and should wear my glasses lol.

Nothing wrong with your glasses Pinkie, it's mine that need cleaning....lol
Thanks for making that clear Julie.........but that means that even an ex-member can complain about someone if they hold a grudge...........

It would seem so then Heather although I had never thought of that - might explain one or two things.

It does make sense though as it is a public forum and as such and Tom, Dick or Harry can log on and read what is being said..............pity people get offended so easily...............but it does make one wonder doesn't it Jac

Hi

I added to the thread that you put up ann but it seems to have gone.

I asked about Freedom of speech on that one Einir.

If you don't like what you start to read click off whats the problem.

I do with tv and newspapers but i have not found anything offensive on here only people being nasty to others when there is no need to.

But some are never happier unless moaning and complaining.
I have never responded to threads like this but it's happening more and more.

I put on a thread from a email sent to me a while ago regarding plugins is was nieve at doing so and i got a couple of snotty pm's telling me to remove it as it was untrue.

Einir Report 4 Aug 2008 18:59

okey dokey kate i dont know what a pm is or a plugin but i think its still stinks that you cant do what you want with your own computer because of little people thinking they are big people dictating to you what you can and cant do i am sure no one would purposly put stuff on here that would be distastefull or hurtfull i think they need to get out more and take in a lung full of fresh air ... a bit sad really bless them eh! they are like kids having a hissy fit

I never saw either of the threads mentioned but like others feel freedom of speech in this country is a thing of the past.
As for the people who would rather complain to GR before asking the owner of the thread to remove it..................................... AARRGGHHH

Well Ann, if you will insist on posting things to make us all laugh, you may expect someone to object.lol.
I expect it was the slightly bad language they were objecting to, it's a part of life though and in most books these days, as one who has to try and locate thrillers with no bad language in at all for our readers who are in their 90s. (Not an easy task!)

I did think them very very funny by the way.

AnnCardiff Report 4 Aug 2008 19:09

don't think there was bag lanuage in them, may have been "tits" in one, but that's biological innit!!!!

if you'd like the Chinese Proverbs I can pm them to you Helen, and by the way I'm nearly in my 90s - well 72 anyway

AnnCardiff Report 4 Aug 2008 19:12

by the way, if you get reported for abusive threads you become extremely "popular" - I have had absolutely dozens of pm's!!! so if you ain't got any pals, post an abusive thread and hey presto - you'll be smothered with love and kisses!!!!

It's all relative though isn't it Ann? What one person doesn't mind another one goes 'gasp'. Not me like, I'm a bit of a sweary Mary. When the kids are in I stick my head in the kitchen cupboards and mutter away. lol
Yes please pm the proverbs as I meant to copy them. Ta
