    It's all rather strange isn't it.

    I can only assume people keep reporting him over and over. ?

    No. Not strange at all. The offending posts are deleted before you see them.

    Are you saying the mods are incompetent and ban people without examining what they post?
    If I don't reply to your post,
    you're probably on my ignore list.

    I can only assume you're referring to said posters regular forays into homophobic references. I guess it's difficult responding to [STRIKE]trolls[/STRIKE] posters who deliberately provoke and insinuate to encourage a response.

    Well, I don't care what you say, he's a lot better behaved on this forum than the other forum (where, admittedly, posters are permitted to call the web master the big c word).

    I didn't think that Mubarak or Gaddafi would be overthrown 2 years ago. Just shows you how quickly paradigms can change. If the Middle East can have a revolution then house prices can definitely fall 50%. Never say never...

    I would guess your correct.
    I was even asked to ignore said poster (which I had done previously).

    Maybe said poster has been asked to ignore you also ~ which he has done thus far.

    You could be in luck. ;)

    To be honest, on reflection, I shouldn't have been drawn in and whilst I attempted to step back and indicate that the poster was self reflecting, possibly I should have ignored like I would a child that throws themself to the ground in a temper flailing their limbs after spitting their dummy out

    Is this not what you are doing now? Don't see Geener complaining. Just seems to be ignoring you, while you whinge on about him....again.

    Graham, I'd rather not be drawn in to something that doesn't concern you.

    I was making a simile example of which would have stood me in good stead upon reflection.

    I'm admitting I didn't handle it as best as I could.

    Please don't be hypocritcal on others until you can be seen as a role model yourself

    Would you now admit you were wrong suggesting I was a women beater too? Or do you still stand by that?
