Cynthia,

we had managed to almost get through one day discussing highly emotive topics without too much aggro. I was damn annoyed on that thread as you will have realised but for once I managed to be fairly reasonable in my replies (don't hold your breathe for the next time)..lolol

However, pointing that out seemed to offend somebody? err no! patently obvious it was for other reasons.

You're right, there wasn't any contentious in your OP - slightly tongue-in-cheek of course - which we all recognised, but nothing which needed RRing.


Maybe whoever it is will find something interesting on the TV for the rest of the day ;-)

I was in same place as you Cynthia. So we can eliminate one group of posters from the enquiries :-D

I think Rose has the answer. But Genes really need to get the rr'er off this site. It is funny in a way to see people rr'd, but I hate it when it happens to me.

Incidentally, I have been rr'd about 12 times (cannot remember that any eventually stuck). And I have only ever rr'd one person, and I told her I had.

I do not believe the culprit was any of my detractors, or any of the 40 or so (and rising) who don't like me much. I think this is probably someone with old scores to settle ;-)

There was nothing in my OP that contravened any of the T & Cs. That is surely the ONLY reason why any RRing of a post should be upheld.

As usual it's the 'I don't like you' syndrome or even the 'you spoke badly to a friend of mine in 2003 and I will never forget it' malady.

Apart from causing me mild irritation it served no purpose at all other than proving that some people are just out to cause trouble in a cowardly manner.

Watch this go whoosh :-D

I've been you know where this morning and now, when I'm all tidied away and sitting down, I find these RRs all over the place :-S :-S



I haven't a clue who is doing it but think it's a bit unfair to cast doubts on others without proof. :-(

Hmmmm interesting.......there seems to be one person missing from all the RR'd threads, a person who usually has plenty to say. Could just be coincidence of course :-S :-S

Rose, here you are have a cuddly (((HUG))) and I'll send you something a tad more useful through the post. Remember to re-set the scope for your eyes ;-)

I tell you one thing though, that proved my theory very succinctly on who IS NOT the RRer!

You'd better be quick RRer if you are going to get me banned by Wednesday night :-D

BlackKnight, call me sus' but I am 100% certain 'we' are being watched by a former member and that at least some of the RRing is 'payback'..... an interesting little exercise is to go back to threads a year ago ( this week) and see who was 'absent' but had been around using a different name ...they can't resist.
