Isn't a little strange that yesterday a relative newbie put a non competition post here and it was immediately answered with ignorant sarcasm and moved very quickly,yet this post remains and gets replies ,wasn't everybody a newbie at some time and had to find their way,why one rule for some and another for other's????????????????

glad was online yesterday when i pm'd her with yesterday's link requesting a move so it got moved relatively quickly,
when i sent her this one late last night glad was offline, so think
glad's not got round to it yet, she does get loads of pm's every few minutes requesting merges/moves & also bg's other boards
expect glad'll get round to moving it as soon as she can x

Its nothing to do with newbies/different rules for different posters, it depends if any BGs are around. They are volunteers, not paid workers so we cant expect them to be online all the time. If a BG is around, has a PM or sees the post, they will move it. If no one is online or they are looking after a different board (none of them only have one board to look after) then it stays.

Posters being rude/sarcastic is always a problem and is best ignored - they are after a 'fight' and take their opportunities when they can - if ignored thay will soon go away.

I do understand that the BG,s are busy and not online all the time ,the part i don,t understand is why one person can get ridiculed for something ,yet another can get replies after doing the exact same thing!

Again, it depends on who is online - i am here at the moment, so have seen this post and read it. If you hadnt been asking, i would not have posted on the thread at all.
The other one you have mentioned, i have not seen at all (so dont know what comments have been made by who) but would guess whoever was rude/sarcastic is not here now, or felt they had their say last time and doesnt feel the need to do so again.

Well i have voiced my opinion and will leave it there,obviously people have been using the site for a good while and will stay in their little groups where they can jump on whoever they want and then contradict themselves by doing the exact same thing that they have been voicing their annoyance to.Hey ho it,s a forum and certain people on forum,s do think that because they have been participating for a certain amount of time ,they can run their own version of rules to suit themselves when the mood takes,hopefully,as it is an open forum ,i am allowed my opinion and be able to voice it when i see something that i think clearly is not fair.

hi, tbh i don't think custardy was trying to ridicule glamrochick,
the way i read the post was that they just commented that the board was for comps,
depends which way you read the post i suppose
all i said on the thread was what i usually post if a post has been made in the comps board,
that i've pm'd a BG to have moved to comps disc & added the link for comps disc for the poster, so they can find the comp disc thread easier, here..
