Have sent a PM to you, Carla.

It is bad enough when something is deleted by the instability of the site / glitch, whatever you want to call it - ie Shimms' and Mick's threads, my caring about people and treading in their footsteps ones, and ones by Jean and Daff - I shall say no more other than I agree with you, Mrs Grumpy Jill.

There is a logic in your response Robin, but, even so, the people responsible for getting the thread deleted are just plain spiteful. To pick on an ongoing long thread what else can they be?

This board used to be such a laugh - now it seems that's not allowed any more!

Never read or added to this thread, but as others have said, we all have our different views on things ... there are those who are not content with ignoring threads/people they do not agree with & have to hit the RR button.

What I cannot understand is, if it was a long, long thread, then people knew either to read / join in / ignore as appropriate. So why, all of a sudden, does it get picked on?

Weird.

Will pm you with jy e-mail Eeyore as interested in seeing what GR have to say.

Eeyore

I diddn't read the thread, so can't comment on why its been deleted

Why don't you mail GR and ask them if you can put another thread up in the same vein ?

You could also ask them what the complaints were about so you can ask in your first post that people dont make the same "mistakes" again :o))

Mick

I can identify with your feelings. Shimms Pad and Siblings, particularly the last one, whooshed on its first birthday, the first birthday of my having found my long-lost adopted sister. xxx

Do feel for your Eeyore little sis, Col and Nigel too. A sweet little boy who loved the stories his uncle told on the boards, created especially for him to read when he visited.

Have had a further response from GR-anyone who would like to read it please pm me your email(it's rather large) BUT it effects anyone who posts on here-I'm disgusted.

They can and they do Carla..............but maybe it would help if GR said specifically what the complaint(s) said it would help everyone avoid making the same mistake(s).

Who knows:)))

I have Kitty.

Dormouse it does appear that it was what can only be called a "Hit Job".

Again,thank-you everyone,I hope GR reads this thread & I hope whoever it was who complained is starting to realize how unbelievably shallow their actions were & how cowardly they are for not coming forward.It basically means anyone can get any Thread deleted "because" they want to.

Hi Eeyore,

I really despair if underhand sniping is what GR is coming to.
If someone has a problem with a thread, there's a couple of things to do: ignore it and go read something else or come forward and state your case about what exactly you object to.
That thread had been going a while now and not one complaint before. Now all of a sudden there's a flurry of them?! What it looks like here is someone having a personal go - and roping in a few weak-willed-no-minds-of-their-own-mates to back him/her up. Bet some of them hadn't even seen the thread.
Chin up Eeyore and Col. It was a funny thread.

Dormouse xx

Edit: ~~ to BC. We posted at the same time. My comments were not in response to yours, BC :))

I have never read the thread in question, but if, as Kim says, some of the comments were 'near the knuckle' then that must be the reason someone or several members complained? One man's Fun on here is another man (or woman's) Smut. It happens all the time. BC¬XX

You really need to ask GR for the reasons why it was reported.

Obviously no-one is going to tell you openly or they would have done so by now.

Edit Kim I may seem to get "personal" but I prefer to state my opinions openly and honestly.
