Its easy to get your entire profile and posting history deleted.
All you have to do is wake up and dare criticise Martin Lewis and the thought Police on MSE, a few wicked posts and enlightenment and your troubles will be no more. All your post will be Gone in an instant with an infinite ban!
Dont listen to the excuses that the admins cant as it upsets the threads as they have been doing it wholesale the last week or so.
Message me for some topics that will hit the nail on the head!0 -
For what it's worth I think that if the OP is getting abuse in her daily life due to the posts she has made here, MSE could make a little more effort to help her out than to simply say 'we don't do that'.
This is a real person whose colleagues are essentially bullying her by all laughing at the posts she has made on this forum. Never mind 'disrupting the forum', a few old threads becoming a little disjointed because some posts a missing or the conversation not flowing as it should seems like a small price to pay.
Have some heart and help her out.
This is (sadly) - quite an increasingly rare sensitive & thoughtful reply on this place - well done, it's good to see. I think I'm out of here pretty shortly when I've discovered enough on the subject to write about. Forums can be pretty bitter & nasty places. Especially when they attract a broad spectrum of society rather than a specialist forum where everyone has the same thing in common.0 -

Yes it is - I used the forum just to view posts, when I started posting the occasional thing I was gobsmacked at how many regulars have no tolerance for other's views & seem to actively look for the weak spot in a post to start an argument or criticise. It almost seems that some people 'hunt' on here!
Rest assured though - I am totally convinced that this says a lot more about these individuals than it does about those that they decide to criticise for incredibly trivial reasons.
I use classic car, running, photography & mountain bike forums occasionally too with no problems. I think the problem here is as I said earlier, that it attracts a very broad spectrum of society where nobody really has anything in common to latch on to.0 -
