    It is an interesting board this one.I have never known such a large group of well educated, witty, altruistic ladies congregate into such a small place. Just don't forget when you are ruling the world the reasons you first came here.

    I can't see why you risk being ppr'd. But if it were to happen, you do know there is somewhere else to go to keep in touch? ;)

    To be PPR'd must work on the same principle as having your posts or signature removed. Someone has to complain.

    It makes sense that if the infringement is fairly minor it will just get removed. It also makes sense if the infringement is regarded as serious (racism for example) they will ban you.

    Taken to its logical conclusion, people who are banned for what seems no apparent reason must have had a lot of complaints. I imagine it is quite easy to get someone PPR'd. Every time they post something even vaguely controversial, report them. If you can report them via multiple user names so much the better.

    Sort of like being nibbled to death by goldfish.

    Well, that's very generous of you Rich and I shouldn't sound self-deprecating .... but you must mix in some small circles. :D

    Or, you mean, a personal vendetta can finish someone off? :eek:

    When I do Mr B I'm not goingto write a list. I hope you'll all remember me kindly and think of me ocasionally...and share the recipes we used to share when the decking wore out.



    And then I'll tell you on the other channel what it felt like.
