    You may not see it as a condemnation , but what you have posted implies 1 of the 4 is breaking the site rules, and as such I feel needs clarification to protect those others you mention.


    As one of the 4 people named I completely agree that clarification is needed, and am affronted by the possible accusation that I could be someone who trawls the site for business. Laughable as such an accusation would be there are thousands of visitors to this site every day that would apply what you have said to all 4 as they know no better.

    Unfortunately, unlike some, I do not have the free time to constantly check what is being written on here as I am trying to run a business, but have to say that having checked I am somewhat disturbed and very annoyed to see such a comment applied to my name.

    Mr Helpful,

    Which of the 4 are you referring to? As one of those named on the list above I would like clarification of your statement.

    Do the honourable thing and either defend your statement or retract it as you are openly insinuating that any one of the 4 regularly trawls the site for business. If you have a problem with one of those named then be brave enough to take it up with them 1to1 instead of slurring my name as you have here.
    I havent slurred your name thats just it. if anyone was feeling guilty Im sure they would Pm me which no one has. As I said I didnt think any were breaking the rules. One could take the view that kenshaz was promoting the 4 brokers he named which is a breach of the rules himself. but all he was doing was using you to cause trouble and division. You backed me up on another thread I believe.
    I am surprised Kenshaz hasnt had a whinge about kimbattys signature.

    Have you people stopped to think what kenshaz is up to here?
    He has no positive input.
    He is not posting a question.
    He is not answering a question.
    All he is doing is making the brokers fight themselves.
    So can anyone tell me what input he has?

    There's nothing wrong with my signature I come here for a bit of light hearted diversion away from running my own business. I post mostly in the Money Savers arms so my signature reflects my involvement with that lovely friendly community :D
    If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun:cool:

    Don't mess with me sucker!!!

    I didnt say there was anything wrong with it I am not the one who makes a fuss about them its Kenshaz who is always on about rules. He is the one that had a go at toonfish for having one font size too big on his signature.
    Some of my posts are light hearted and as you say flippant but it seems you cant have humour here.

    That is exactly what you have done. By saying 'one of those 4 regularly trawls the site for business' you are, to the posting public, implying that one of these people is breaking the rules but you do not name them. Therefore we are all 4 tarred with that brush. Whether you see the point or not is irellivent. I am very surprised that you cannot see the implication of what you have said. Either name the individual you are referring to or delete the statement entirely. I have no guilt about what is being implied however am very annoyed that such a relatively new poster to the forum can make such a suggestion without being prepared to defend it.
    As I said I didnt think any were breaking the rules.

    Again, that is exactly what you are suggesting as trawling the site for business is strictly against the forum rules.
    One could take the view that kenshaz was promoting the 4 brokers he named which is a breach of the rules himself.

    It is not against the rules as he was not actually saying 'go to these people for a mortgage or PM them if you like'
    but all he was doing was using you to cause trouble and division.

    If I feel that another poster has used me in such a way then I am big enough to fight my own battles and can speak for myself
    You backed me up on another thread I believe.

    When you made a point I agreed with yes. But what you have made comment to is proposterous as far as I am concerned. But of course you wont see that as it is not your name that is being implicated.
    I am surprised Kenshaz hasnt had a whinge about kimbattys signature.

    Why should he? She is not a broker

    Well having answered this too many times its a case of if the cap fits wear it end of story as I have said I wasnt complainig or aiming slurs at anyone but if anyones got a guilty concience then thats their problem. People have over reacted to an off the cuff comment and played straight in to kenshazes hands. Has he apologised to Shameless. No hes not man enough to. it was his bullying that led to this argument in the first place.
    He seems to hve taken over the unelected role of policeman of the thread but is in fact worse than a westminster traffic warden.

    I cannot get over your biggoted and pig headed arrogance you ridiculous man. You have made a slur which was aimed at any one of 4 people and then when those people come and try to ask for some sort of clarification or retraction , all you can say is oh if the cap fits

    How old are you, you act like you're in a playground

    What is actually the case is that you cannot see the implication that your comments make and are not prepared to quantify it except by childish retorts such as 'if the cap fits, wear it'. If that is aimed in my direction then you really are being utterly ridiculous.

    It is very easy for those who know to see who the 'trawlers' on the site are simply by the amount of free time they spend posting here with nothing better to do.

    You have annoyed me and at least one other long term poster with your 'off the cuff' comment as, whether you see it or not, you have implicated 4 people in breaking the site rules.

    As you do not have the balls to name the individual you are speaking about then your comment will be treated with the contempt that both you and it deserve.

    well having retracted it god knows how many times we have a situation where 2 have reacted on this thread and 2 have not so what does that tell us. are the 2 that have reacted worried ? Of course it isnt really going to affect them because they dont trawl the boards and get any business and this thread is not giving any advice to posters so is it really a problem.
    or is it the other 2 that are keeping their heads down hoping that no one will notice them and it will pass over.
    You say I act like Im in a playground and yet I dont throw my teddies out of the pram if I get what might be a bit of a slur. Ive had far worse in my time and survived.
    You might note the silence of the person who caused all this
