We got ours thanx Maz, yours will be with you soon. Bev (Speedy)

Like it or not there are guidelines for the use of the messge boards. such as:- Don’t advertise. Don’t use the service for any business or commercial or charitable purpose, or to promote any alternative commercial service. So Charities are out, sorry, however well intende.

Peter, We are aware of the guidelines & I am not disputing the fact that if the guidelines are broken then those threads will be deleted. That is not what I was saying it's the selective nature of the deletions, not all of these types of threads are reported & definitely not all are deleted, that is the problem & as Mandy says many of these threads are actually innocent to put a thread up to thank someone for a lovely christmas cards does NOT break any rules yet these threads have been deleted!!!!! I have noticed a couple of threads breaking those guidelines you quote they are still here on this board. That's what wrong not the threads themselves. I cannot stand injustice, I believe everyone should be treated the same. Some people need to get out more, they need to remember this is the season of goodwill & as Ann so rightly says 'live and let live'. Whoever they are I hope they feel good about themselves they must spread muck wherever they go. I still maintain threads are targetted not always because of the contents but because of the author it's always like that here. Pat x

Pat I know what you are saying, but unfortutunately you do not have a leg to stand on if the rules are broken. Similary if someone claims they are offended, the thread will go, as GR does not adjudicate. Life is a bitch I'm afraid.

I didnt break any rules - I put a thread up thanking for a wonderful card that was sent to me and Rick - my thread was deleted !! Lots of people were thanking others and so I did too - But they chose to delete my thread. xx

Yes Peter ain't it just. lol. It wasn't my thread, if it had been I would be more angry I suppose. Maybe moderators would be a better idea, why shouldn't Genes take more responsibility for the boards they should do the dirty work rather than asking us and NON members to do it, I would pay more for such things as fairness.

Oops Hi Jan typing the same time. I saw your thread & thought it was a very nice gesture to thank Maz like that as others have thanked people for sending cards. In fact there is a very long thread going at the moment people thanking people for sending Christmas cards there are a couple of others advertising business's but the trolls have left them alone thats what I thought strange? 'Tis the season to be jolly tra la la' I was just singing 'Deck the Halls' & realised it has that word 'troll' in its lyrics even if its the other meaning of the word :-))))))) LMHO. Pat x

I think it is because it's me Pat LOL!! Never mind.. While there picking at me, someone else is having a rest! LOL! Maz x ;O)

Maz, :-((( Shouldn't be picking on anyone. Ah well I think its sad. Pat x
