    This obsession a few people have with malchish is spoiling the forum for the rest of us.

    I know somebody will come back with the line,, I wont ignore him because I want to protect others from his false information... That's just a load of nonsense.

    In your opinion, if you think it is spoiling the forum as has been said before and by yourself just ignore it if you do not like it.

    This is an open forum whether you like it or not people are allowed to question a poster that posts inaccurate information especially in a forum that is titled Consumer Rights and insults anyone that disagrees with him, if you think it is nonsense then practise what you preach and ignore the posts.

    It's a obsession and some clearly cant let it go. He has been told his info is not correct but to keep going on and on about it does not help anybody.
    It's senior members like yourself who should try and encourage people to use this forum people wont stay while this childish nonsense continues.
    I have malchish on ignore but it's pointless when people keep quoting what he has said.
    I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.

    This is taking the thread completely off topic so my last post on the subject.

    There are knowledgeable people that contribute valuable information on this site, when someone comes along and posts inaccurate information do you really think they should be given free rein to just carry on posting their rubbish without anyone questioning them and pointing out they are giving misleading information to people that may believe it is correct.

    Would appear to be his usual form of attack when anyone questions his posts.

    This has nothing to do with the OP's question and it had no place on this thread.
    I have nothing personal against anybody but if petty arguments go on long enough it just drives people away.

  • Op over reacted and caused a situation which should never have occurred. Now wants to blame everyone rather than accept her actions cause the embarrassing scene.

    Had the security man really suspected the ops son of theft he would not put the wrapping in the bin and walked off.

    I reckon once she puts her complaint in and the cctv footage is looked at, she may find herself banned from the store.
    I'm not that way reclined

    Jewelry? Seriously? Sheldon you are the most shallow, self-centered person I have ever met. Do you really think that another transparently-manipu... OH, IT'S A TIARA! A tiara; I have a tiara! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me!

    It dosent make sence that a security guard would accuse someone of theft and just walk off.

    Depends if in his mind he "knows" something's been stolen but knows he can't prove it, so wants to put the accused off doing it again.

    Used to do it a fair bit myself when I saw stuff go in pockets but didn't maintain complete observation until they'd left the store.
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

    Unless you are 100% sure then it's best to say nothing.
