    Come on give us a clue whats wrong with a bit of argument ? Its more entertaining than the usual platitudes and stimulates debate.

    I'm intrigued too. Was it someone I knew of I wonder? I've been absent here of late so I'm well and truly in the dark.

    Whilst I agree that it can be entertaining to watch a strong debate, when people visit this part of the boards, it`s generally for help, support or a shoulder to cry on.

    There are plenty of other parts of the forums to have an argument on where the consequences of poor information are not so, potentially, life changing. The poster in question was giving misinformation and when challenged was abusive and threatening. He and all his posts have been pulled as they should.

    The plight of some posters and those who lurk this pat of the boards is not a laughing matter , especially for them.

    To you obviously, yes it is only money.
    To posters from the past it`s been feed the kids or turn the heating on ....real desperation stuff. Emotional rollercoasters of massive low points....attempted suicides......................You still think it`s not serious stuff??

    If it`s all a bit of a laugh for you , I respectfully suggest that you refrain from posting on this section..
    Thanks

    Lot of spur jangling on here today.

    I'd like to know who was booted off also! This closed ranks attitude is warping my tiny little newbie mind :rolleyes:

    <waits paitently>
  • No one was booted off, they left of there own accord.
    The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter :(

    If they left of their own accord, why have all of their posts disappeared?
    Every single one is gone.
    Are you telling me that the snake deleted every single post and stopped posting? He positively thrived on the bad feeling!
