I have received my email today.... :-(

It does seem that there are one or two that want to monitor the boards rather than GR.

Even if GR gave us a list of words..it could quite easily be RR'd by whom ever does the RRing.......

I was once reading an article in Daily Telegraph about Margaret Price, the Welsh soprano, back about 1970. It began on the first page and then continued on Page 3 inside. Page 1 ended with Margaret Price, Welsh soprano, cont

What made me think about that and the reporting of Jonesey's post I cannot divulge. But I think reporter is a big connard artist. :-( :-(

disgraceful and the sooner GR show the door to the person who is reporting these threads the better - and as it's Friday it'll stay this way until Monday now!! Shame on you, whoever you are - you don't even have the good grace to admit you're doing it - there was absolutely nothing contentious in Jonesey's post - we might have a bit of respect for you if you owned up and said why you are reporting threads, but I won't be holding my breath on that one. Were you always a snitch - in school maybe?

Friday night is RR Night.

Maybe they're getting money for Children in Need for every RR.

Hmmm..... The RR one hit the button on Mr M's OP yesterday then came back for another read and reported a few selected posts. I think this person just gets jolly cross when posters say what they think of him/her - nothing to do with certain words.
Why would they report Jonesey's thread? There was nothing offensive in it!

I think this person is getting a buzz out of reporting and it is definitely malicious.

Do GR keep tabs on who reports?

They should!

Anyone who keeps reporting threads should get the boot...... steeltoecap boots please.

Could someone who has a copy of Mr Magoos OP please send to me so I can see for myself what might have offended ? Cheers.

Thanks Mr Magoo, received.:-)

So I would think it was the first joke re E, that got Mr M's original OP reported ( which speaking for myself I quite understand because I can't find the topic of drugs funny) and because that joke was not included in the 'repost', there may something of a misapprehension as to what caused the report..clearly NOT the word "arse" or the rest of the post.

Maybe the reporter of this thread feels that the people who are commenting did not see the 'original' but only Mr M's second version and therefore are unaware of what caused offence?

Susan10146857 Report 15 Nov 2013 21:29

I just had a thought......maybe the OP of this thread was deliberately RRd so that GR read the post....in which case, all other comments are a much ado about nothing....I could be wrong of course but judging by all other stabs in the dark at reasons for RRing or not posting, my opinion is just as valid.......as for reasons for not posting......maybe threads like this dissecting an RR or slagging off those who RR may be a good reason for not posting.....but like all other suggestions written on mr Magoo's as well as this one, there is no proof either way.......so why bother.

So is this a debate or an autopsy?

If it is a debate...it sure is a boring one that has been done to death.....another autopsy methinks......in my opinion that is


Edit....I would have thought a debate should be based on knowledge not guesses.....for instance, making assumptions that it is the same person RRing.....hmmm....where would proof of that be?......Where also is the proof of reasons for not posting........debating should also be free from verbal abuse. Calling someone names does not a good debate make.

Why "imaginative" Island?

I honestly don't see it as a very big leap to suppose that someone who might have reported the joke about injecting E, might then be a bit miffed when everyone leaps on the reporter because they have only seen the 'edited' second version without that joke in it.
