    That Facebook crap has been very hurtful to a lot of people. I'm still waiting for responses to messages I sent to people who I thought were ok and trustworthy, 6 weeks ago.

    I suspect that I think I know who your AE is, and if I'm right, I thought better of you. Critical of AE's but don't have the knackers to post under your regular username. Shame on you.

    I won't ever go back to those 2 particular Facebook groups. They are both absolutely rife with paranoia and I can't be bothered with that. Moles this and moles that. Secret glitches and constant whining and !!!!!ing, I've got better things to do and am much better off without it

    Oh and by the way, I do feel that the treatment I had from both Facebook groups amounts to bullying.

    I hope you are proud of that Mr Kermit the King. You and your disciples :mad:

    Greetings all.

    Whenever people have a hard time we supply hugs, sympathy and kind words.

    Someone having a hard time deals with it in a different way to others and they are asked to delete posts and apologise for their comments. When really everyone is entitled to deal with their traumas in their own way. To say that squills can stick around now that he has deleted posts and apologised is weak.

    In the same way that other people have been supported through their troubles and have been supported in the way that they appreciated, we (as a group) should have been supporting squills in the way that he is dealing with all that is going on his life and not demanded that he removes anything written that is a reflection of the way he is feeling. To offer him support only on the basis that he reports his troubles in the same way that others have done and that he deletes anything that reflects a different way of thinking is outrageous.

    I thought this thread was about supporting everyone in the way that they as individuals needed it, not just restricting ourselves to supporting people in need of hugs and prayers and thoughts.

    I can totally understand why squills now feels like deserting, and the elite will be weaker because of his decision.

    :(

    I'm just reading through over the last couple of days, having been MIA, and would just like to say I totally endorse this post. People deal with things in different ways, and I personally didn't find anything that Squillions said (that I have seen) offensive.

    For me the thread will be much the poorer for his going, and I would ask him to reconsider please.
    Hope is not a strategy.

    What is going on? I don't know what any of this is about. We have a nice little thread here, can we just keep it that way please?

    This isn't Facebook. Something to be thankful for.

    You'll get an e-mail confirming it, but it should have said on the BZZ page that you'll get coupons with 28 days which should consist of ;-

    Either way, your BzzKit is certainly on its way, and includes:
    Coupons for you to use across the range to try the different cheeses for Free :j
    Coupons to pass along to friends and family to get money off the range

    Log into your account and it will be there.

    Thank you,
    I've still no email, but it is under "my campaigns" so looks like I am in!!:j:j

    It's only a game

    I don't always get a confirmation email. Often the next thing that I know about it is when it turns up on the doorstep
