Hey you! You'll soon be back in the pink! (((((((((((X))))))))))) Daisy

NO diana, it's not that they don't like manners. It's the fact they a soooooooooo jealous that YOU have got off your back side to help others. small narrow mined people, he/she should be ashamed of themselfs. lynnxx

I haven't posted on any of these threads before but felt compelled to add to this one. I am currently experiencing the first person close to me to be affected by this illness and want to thank you and everyone else who has done so much for CR in the hope that one day people will not have to go through this or see those close to them suffer. I cannot believe that people are really offended by your threads which always put a very positive outlook on what is an awful problem. Keep going, you and all the other pink people do a fantastic job.

Do you know I suggested that I might need to change my name but I won't be bullied into doing anything I do't wanna do... I have gone to Diana as I am not feeling very Pink right now but I will return to it as it was given to me by GAYNOR and NO-ONE is going to stop me staying attached to her!

THANK YOU Kay......... Jacquie xxx

Er,,,,,,,,,,,, GR Home Page, Quote,, General Topic Boards,for genealogy discussions,and every day topics.....???? So how about ;;;A Thank You Topic,,,or A Fundraising Topic,,or Cat ,Dog ,Car or what ever Topic,,they are part of everyday are they not,,,Oh and anythindg you like Topic<< Kay..

Pink...this is terrible...as others have said what narrow minded person has complained!!!?????? Small lives....small minds..... Keep up the good work!!! Jacquie xxx

I'm sorry but I am absolutely furious about this! Can I make a suggestion? Why don't we all EN-MASSE post thank you's to Diana? Presumably GR wouldn't throw us all off??? If anyone objects to this idea let me know - I don't want to get anyone else in trouble by doing it, but I am more than happy to be first. Just give me the nod! Maybe GR should stop pandering to one person's pathetic twisted little mind! And if you are reading this and offended by it, whoever you are, I suggest you have the courage to come on here directly and explain your problem! Or maybe you would just like to quietly accept that you are in a definite minority and stop upsetting people. I would also like to know what is wrong with the occasional fund-raising thread anyway? Isn't that what community is all about? As others have said, I would rather read something important and interesting rather than 'My cat just threw up' or 'I just burnt the tea!' Sal

hi diana, i saw the pics of the 'wakefield' night on the photos page,and i thought that it looked a brilliant event,they all seemed like such caring people,giving up their time. good luck to you......bryan.

Thank you for replying to me, Chunky Monkey. I am shocked, but I regret to say no longer surprised. Most people have been touched in some way during their lives by cancer. What a very fortunate human being the complainant must be to have escaped this. How sad that they do not yet realise it.

Evening Diana, whatever next will happen here? words fail me, you are doing great, am sending loads of support, take care there :)

That's terrible Pink, can't believe someone has complained about your threads. Luv JoJo xx

Pink Ive just logged on after being at the hospital visiting my dad, Yep he is still in there. I cant belive what Im reading. Cancer Reserch is so important, and they need every penny that people like yourself can raise, to help combat this horrible illness. My mum died from cancer, and I fully support you in your fundraising. Maggie

Like everyone else I'm gobsmacked. When I first joined GC I didn't use the boards at all. In January I looked into the tips board for some help. A quick look at the general & chat boards & I thought they were not for me untill the announcement of Gaynors passing. I was so moved by what I read that I have stayed with the Gen board & got involved with a charity I have not previously supported. Recently there have been times when I felt I didn't want to be here anymore but decided that I should ignore all the nasty threads but stay for the GB relay & Pink Sahara threads. Are GR saying that the best parts of the board shouldn't be here? My membership runs out in october, I'm not sure I want to continue. I don't know what else has happened today, not long been in from work & couldn't believe what I was reading. Chin up Pink, I still want to do a baloon release Vivienne

I'm so sorry this has happened and I'm sorry GR take so much notice of these spiteful people that are seemingly stalking the board at the moment. Keep up the brilliant work you do Pinks, and try to ignore the idiots. Love Bev and Kev xx

You keep going Pink, we are behind you 100%. The others that arn't can get stuffed. Jo (also had a very very bad day) xx

I can't believe someone could be so spiteful and report your threads as fundraising tactics. I have told so many people about you and Gaynor and your efforts to erradicated this terrible disease. You are a hero in my eyes Diana. THANK YOU!!!

There are just some peeps on this site that are getting more pathetic by the day, it's about time they grew up and realised this is not some virtual playground for them to run off to the teachers and whinge about threads that others are doing that inflicts no harm on anyone!! The harm is being cause by them complaining and others having to stop posting very worthwhile threads....I hope one day they find the guts to admit who they are.....but we can all dream!! Susie xx

I sincerely hope that whoever has complained is never in need of cancer support. Chin up Diana and keep on going. Maybe someone else could post the threads for you in future if it is your name that is being targetted.

Diana, I've only just logged on and I'm appalled at what's happened. What a miserable attitude some people have! If they can put up with some of the out & out trivial rubbish that appears on this Board on an almost daily basis (from me as well as others), they can damn well put up with people saying 'thank you', especially when it's in connection with such a noble objective. I think you deserve a gong for what you're doing. Whoever has complained about you should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. I know I've not so far done as much as some, but I've put in many hours of work on the GB Relay and intend to do many more. Others have done far more with spectacular results. I'm disgusted to think that people can be so ungrateful and so unkind, not for myself, but for you. If they'd only seen what happened to my father, who suffered for nearly 3 years with cancer before dying an agonising death, those people couldn't have the heart to do what they've done. I've had to live with those terrible memories for the past 44 years. Cancer wrecked my childhood and plunged our family into poverty. How would they like it, if that happened to them?
