Allan :-D

Don't think Ann was referring to you. Could be a number of posters. I know I can feel the same if I wake up in the middle of the night.
:-D ;-)

AnnC Can you not ignore posts or talk over if not to your taste. Not fair for anyone to be criticised for their views or for their opinions, unless illegal. And not a lot of support for those who are constantly battering away to get Genes to answer questions. Not before it was too late :-( :-(

I am on a warning myself. I know you will miss me when I am banned ;-)

An occasional good natured swat should do the trick, AnnC, if it really bothers you :-)

I actually thought the OP was referring to the forced leaving of respected lady the other day.

I am surprised that Johns first post on here, which assumed the same was jumped upon so quickly.

The OP is a bit vague to be honest, so it perfectly reasonable that some people will assume it refers to other recent events rather than the person whom its really referring to (whom I haven't a clue!)

I personally wouldnt like to see anyone banned I think there is room enough for everyone on this board, but some have been posting here long enough now and still make is perfectly obvious when they are stirring and whine and moan when they brought to task over it, all it takes is too engage your brain before posting on in a while.

It actually takes to me back to some time in the 1990's but I wont bore you all with that

Mildred, I don't think you saw the post in it's original form or a thread that was put up and deleted last night?
I don't accuse people of taking the p without good reason.

Allan Report 2 Dec 2012 11:44

lol John. I know that AnnC was not reffering to me, but I was just injecting my weird brand of 'humour' into the thread :-S

Apparently Ettolle/####### account no longer exists.
I think the OP was wondering if the person had been reported and sent packing by GR or had deleted the account themselves.
My guess is the latter.

It just goes to show how easy it is for upsets to be caused. :-(

Julia

Julia Report 2 Dec 2012 12:56

I'm glad we arn't losing you Ann. Hooray.

Island, thanks for that. I understand. Wonder if it was Mummy's or Daddy's account.
Seems daft to spend the money to join jusy to make a nuisance of themselves.
Perhaps getting too much pocket money then, if they can afford to do that

I think the record will show that I was one of the first to realise that Genes were continuing to refuse to answer perfectly reasonable questions on Suggestions and PM's.

It wound me up. She has helped me in past, she has helped many. She was battling away and they were getting really nasty.

So I think the charge that I am all over the boards like an unpleasant rash and have no sympathy for the poster is so wide of the mark.

I honestly thought I was of one mind with you all on this. We have to have light-hearted threads about it because of the situation, but could everyone realise that I am definitely not poking fun and stirring. I feel we have all come together on this, in exactly the same way that we have over the serious illnesses of members.

Good people are leaving Genes - and I am NOT the cause. Nor will I ever be.

John this thread isn't about the 'helper' this thread is about Ettolle aka Margaret aka... who has apparently left the building...

But fear not folks I'm sure she will be 'back' ...though for my money she has not gone lol, she is just in a dark corner spinning on the spot until she turns into someone 'else'.
:-D
