Egluntyne Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I now think that by being made to feel this way (and I know I am not alone).....the ranters are very cleverly, in their own way, imposing a form of censorship. Hmmmm..... cos name-calling always helps Phil How does patronising behaviour help Phil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 omg, just because i said horse racing was cruel on a thread about the grand national i'm now being accused of being a ranter and posting diatribes, unbelievable! No you're no Poet - No-one mentioned your name at all. Now can we all please get back to normal service and stop being so tetchy?

Lisastyal Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I dont want to suggest people stop expressing their opinons, after all that is what forums are for, but I think one of the moderators could now do with taking charge of this thread and ending it and locking it! It seems to have got a bit '"Ooops, word censored!"y' now and people jumping to all conclusions over certain posts being aimed at them. I am one person who was challenged for my TXT speak but I understand totally and, after a discussion on another section of this site, feel that the mods dealt with it well and reassured me that I wasnt being singled out etc, its just some peoples preerences and I was more than happy to comply and carry on visiting the forum. Any way I think it needs ending now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 The moderators do a sterling job here which they don't get paid for and after reading some of this they don't even seem to be thanked I am no innocent in here before anyone starts jibing I have in the past 'turned myself in' when things have gone too far but I have also seen stuff and alerted them where necessary Only yesterday I put in a word that was a little strong albeit **'d out a little and it has been modded fair enough it was a strong word wrists slapped but I am not going to get upset lifes too short We are all human and more importantly all different Please calm down "Ooops, word censored!"ody is pointing at anyone from what I can see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 I've locked the topic because I can't stand the bickering any longer and want to get on with things off the forum for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
