    You revealed that you worked for the organisation. You also reacted violently to criticism of that organisation.

    A measure of overidentification perhaps.

    You still have not explained why you called them a troll, and now you accuse them of reacting violently?

    I see no problem in someone saying where they work. It is you that is making judgments here.
    Gone ... or have I?

    Oh deary me. It is indeed correct that I revealed I worked for an organisation, and I merely joined this forum as I thought most people were helpful and gave good advice. I also wished to pass on the benefit of my knowledge and help other people where I could. I have not in any way reacted "violently" and feel your sense of perception to be somewhat flawed. I merely pointed out that most people who work for "them" are like me, normal everyday people just wanting to earn a crust and provide for our children.

    If I told you I used to be a lawyer would you proceed to vent your anger at the legal profession?

    Maybe you should concentrate your energies onto what this forum is about.....helping people :-)

    Moral of the story: Keep a copy, send Recorded Delivery, download a copy signature, mark a deadline for pursuing on the calender.

    Oh, and never, ever, trust them.

    Personally, I would have said the moral of the story was to make sure you send the renewal form back before the award runs out.
