It woz me - I did it.

I do not want the boards alight in the same way as they were over the last weekend so I did something I have never done before.

Don't worry about it namelessone, I was tempted to do it myself as this thread is an 'information only' one imo. not something that now needs debating. As per my comment on 30thMay

"It is so that members, new and old, are made aware of GR's stance on mentioning other sites ( free or paid) on these boards.

There was a good deal of confusion with some members believing it was against T & Cs to mention Ancestry at all for example, I asked admin to clarify and that is what they have done"

Thank you RR - I am not worried. I felt it was important to state it was me.

Apart from that I agree with everything you've just said.

So if I am on another site talking about GR in a good way they allow it, because they are confident & trust the members loyalty, I wish GR would feel the same way.

TheBlackKnight good point - don't let it worry you - nameslessone has joined the band wagon now - so very sad ;-) Wish there was a crying icon on here

Typical! I'm no band member.

I referred your post because you rehashed an old argument which I thought had been sorted.

So I RR'd it to stop any more heated discussion on an old topic.

This really is getting to be a set of brilliant solutions to a problem which, in all reality, doesn't exist any more.

Move on, there are far more important things to get sorted on here.

IGP

Have you considered you also could move on...

As you do not agree with this thread ... dont post on it ..

Just ignore it and find another thread that you approve of and post on that

or start your own thread .... And state your point ...

it seems "simples"

Who says the problem doesn't exist anymore?

SylviaInCanada Report 30 Jun 2013 23:42

the problem is still around :-\ :-\


hence the need to keep this thread alive.


The "word" has been given by GR .........

............ but some people still seem to think they take precedence over GR

I'm nudging this because YET AGAIN someone has took it upon themselves to report threads on FA that have asked for Ancestry look ups.

What does it take to get it through to this person (these people)??

Hi

What happens to the referred posts? Do they get deleted by GR? Not that it really matters as I have copied the lookup information. Just curious I guess!

Regards,

Gillian

If the referred post does not contravene GR T&C

it is reinstated ....

always a good idea to copy any info posted
