    Can MSE not block the spammers? There seems to be several (or one using different usernames?)! How annoying! fist-shake.gif
    :TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea

    I think it just one very angry soul Bella. I don't envy the MSE folk their job removing all the posts. Then again I don't envy someone with so much vitriol. You could move mountains with that kind of energy, such a shame it wasn't redirected.


    BTW....I love your smileys! xx

    If it is just one spammer then they must have a sad and boring life to want to spend so much time posting post after post after post knowing that no one is even bothering to read what they have said and are just hitting the spam button! thumbs-down-smiley-emoticon.gif

    :T:T:T Buddha :T:T:T thanks firefly, love it when you post this one up. Have rubbed his tum and other bits too :)

    If you haven't gone yet Sheils, have a wonderful time and I hope you DD is feeling better today.

    I see things have been busy on MSE, onwards and upwards folks.

    My GD is coming tonight after school so must go and get some of here favorites in. She asked me to take her Christmas shopping nearer the time for her friends pressies. I am privileged, I think, or is it my purse she likes :)

    Off to town

    SYL enjoy your day folks.
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS

    OK so I think all need to be warned that I am about to post a *shudder* SOPPY post!


    Bluebella your online persona is delightful, you always make me smile. And I suspect (please fell free to tell me otherwise) that most folk on here are just as they are in 'real life'.


    I signed in this morning about 8 o'clockish and was greeted with a screen full of spam (not really any other word for it). And it made me really sad. I have on occasions mentioned that Jnr is autistic, but I am too. I have (Docs label not mine) High Functioning Autism (HFA) with Apraxia (sensory disorder). Bit of a mouthful..so I don't usually introduce myself like that! ;) So...


    ..when I read a post (I only read one, it was odds on that they were all going to say the same) it made me very sad. They are displaying extraordinary/unacceptable bad behaviour, but I too was once like that. Not to such extremes but not too far off. They are obviously not happy. Dagnammit...I'm doing a bad job of this :o I guess I just wanted to say... yes they are being a HUGE pain in the rear but just cut them some slack, please. I have no idea if what I am going to write next is offensive (but I am going to cheap out and wave my autism card) please remember that saying.. "There but for the grace..." I am sorry but I don't know the rest of the saying.


    *deep breath* Whoa. I have said a lot of things that I never imagined I'd say in such a public forum. But I have. If I have offended anyone please accept my most sincere of apologies. It was never my intention. I just needed to say that maybe sometimes some folk 'let loose' without realising.


    Then maybe some folk do know, but they just can't control it?


    I wish you all the most fabulous of Mondays xxx
