    It's still there now. It won't disappear now until the MSE staff get into work in the morning, I shouldn't imagine.

    The outing of somebody's real name, town and place of work was shocking, and despite posts from lir and several others saying so, the OP didn't remove those references. :(

    People are soooo gullible. A poster on an internet forum states something, and the people reading it think they "know" it as a fact, and feel quite certain that the person who made the statement is neither deceitful nor delusional.

    I wish people could remember that on an internet forum...
    a) Anything you say is public to the whole world, and you have no idea who is reading.
    b) The other posters may or may not be who they say they are.
    c) Any statement made by anybody should be held lightly, because it may or may not be true, and you have no way of finding out, because people lie on anonymous internet forums (fora?) even more than they lie in real life, which is saying a lot!

    It's like they say about emails.

    Oh god... I'd LOVE to read that.... bet it's gone by now :(

    Here's one of the huge differences between the sexes. I can't be bothered to look. :A

    On Gok, he's in our village Panto. Turns up to show Robin & his Merrie Men on how to wear their hose and gives Maid Marion some firm advice on body sculpting. Even Friar Tuck is told "Hessian is so last season." :rotfl:

    Blimmin' cold out there tonight. I have just remembered an exposed water pipe in our other garden 100 miles away. :(
    I'm now on page 7.....

    Bah! They're just pixels.... :p

    I like that about you.


    I was horrified it took mse so long to act. I contacted the board guide and she reported it too she said but i think miss kool would have locked it at least. Its one thing giving away too much about yourself, but someone else....making them contactable......its not on imo.

    Its also shocking to see how people, and i am sure i have in the past, circle like wolves, whip themselves up into a frenzy on the basis of one side of a story and potentially are prepared to contact someone they don't know in defence of someone else they do not know.

    I do feel grubby and also disappointed, in myself and in the system that lets sme thing like that stay up so long. Makes me wonder what would happen if someone put something obcene on or somethng....

    Thanks, but as I said, I think most men would be the same. :)

    In the latter scenario, things would probably be different! :rotfl:

    Oh dear, at the best of times i ignore the relationships boards. I guess it often just shows the worst side of people.
