Lindy No one minds nudging for a reason, but we hate it if it is for the benefit of causing trouble. E x :o))

Jacquie Am I bovvered? No I'm not I replied to your comments about how threads such as mine should be deleted to stop them coming back to haunt. And for the record, my thread was searched for delibratly. The Nudgers motives are clear. As I said...I'm not bovvered ! It takes a cowardly sick person to do such stirring annonymously in the wee small hours in the morning...when they think no one will notice them... Elaine x

hi maz, surely to be able to nudge a very old thread- you would either have had to have added to that thread [so clicked on 'my threads' to search for it ] OR have a very very good memory, to be able to search for it by its title......... er, did that make sense ? sue.

I'm a bit confused - as usual - so can you clarify it for me. If someone digs out an old thread because they want to add to it, their name, and the time they replied, will be on it. If they just want to read it, without commenting, it will not appear on the board. If they're the 'phantom nudger' their name will disappear, but the time will remain. Is that right?

Maz, I've been nudging up threads about a pink ursuline creature and the London Eye to get them noticed. I delete my earlier nudges to stop the thread getting too long. It's boring to read a whole string of nudge, nudge - and no wink! CB >|<

I've 'nudged' old threads occasionally in the past. Usually, I'm looking for something I've remembered from a while ago and just happen to see something that catches my eye. I don't just nudge it, then disappear. I add a post or put 'nudge' on the thread, and I don't see anything wrong with that. Personally, I couldn't be bothered to carry on an argument for a year. If someone upsets me that badly, I'd just ignore them completely and block their messages. The only way to stop contentious threads being nudged is to delete them, as has already been said. The phantom nudger(s?) can't do it then, can they? If you don't want to delete your old threads, you're leaving them their 'bullets' to fire. If you never delete your threads, the storage they take up must be astronomical! CB >|<
