You have said the trust thread was just a joke. I took it seriously, and I was wrong to do so, I even thought at the time it was out of character for you. It was ill timed given what happened only the night before, concerning trust and suspicion, and I wrongly thought this was just a continuation on that theme. There have been other threads of a similar nature which have caused problems and have been very devisive.

You probably have a c&p of the whole thread and so you will see that I was not the only one who thought along those lines and raised an objection, but I will sincerely apologise for what I said. I hope thats the end of it.

Please don't go off just because a mistake was made. That would be silly.

Again, I am sorry for misunderstanding the nature of the thread and taking it seriously.

If it was a joke why didnt you put Lol or PMSL so people knew it was? It annoyed me because if someone hadnt seen the thread to post on it they would have been branded as not trustworthy,its happened before Ive seen nice people hounded because of a thread like that.I apologise for not being able to see the joke,but I am not a mind reader.

It's long gone. Clueless deleted it because people took it seriously, quite rightly

I cant remember who started one off saying they could be trusted and send them detail's.

If it was that one I took it as a joke.

Romany, I will always hold my hands up if I am wrong...

Marion, it was a thread that clueless put up asking people to sing in if they could be trusted. Several of us took it offence, and felt if we didnt' sign in we would be branded untrustworthy, can it was divisive. However it turned out it wasn't serious..Nothing to do with bank details, this was only yesterday.

Someone put a post on Clue's thread saying they could be trusted and send bank details etc., Marion, but it wasn't Clue, and it wasn't in the thread title/initial content.

Many people can make mistakes but few have the courage to apologise.
Perhaps if more people could be as brave as these ladies, we would have peace on the boards.

I also thought it was a serious thread after the problems the previous evening.

I would also like to apologise to anyone who was upset by the way the thread went.

I read it the same way , sighn or you are not trustworthy.Its a shame Clueless was not around to explain it was a joke thread as I,m sure as soon as she realised the reaction it caused she would have explained straightaway .
