    I have teenage kids I know full well what it means the same as most people in here will know what it meant, my point is still the same Kirri did not say the word he/she typed 3 initials there was no swearing/abusive language.

    If you find that offensive then I want everyone who types OMG reported because I find that offensive, all I am saying is what you have reported him/her for you may not be offensive to others, let members report him/her so we don't know, but you reporting him/her after he/she had a dig at you just looks like revenge.

    Oh My God
    the above is written to show that the above 3 words can be posted on this forum and are not classed as swearing
    hopefully you see where I'm coming from without me having to spell that out too :)


    I can pass on to the team that you as a member find the initials OMG offensive though, as I pass on anything I think they need to look at on my boards, including spam, self promotion, abuse, racism and circumventing the swear filter etc all of which are asked of us as volunteer BGs

    Looks like a few people need to get their wind up on here :rotfl:

    Just when you think MSE can't get anymore childish...

    !!!!!! is as close to swearing as you can get due to the filters on here. It is offensive. Trying to state otherwise just looks petty...

    If I were glad I'd be writing FML whenever she gets involved in these petty threads....
    :cool:
  • Glad I just wanted to say ( and I am sure I am speaking for 99.9% of the people on here ) that we are really appreciative of the work you do here, people need to realise they are volunteers not paid staff and that it is a competition site!

    I end date comp as well but try and stay 3 or 4 days ahead and if I cannot do that and fall behind I fully understand you may miss some or they go into Game Over

    At the end of the day there are thousands on here so why people get so upset that they may have missed 2 or 3 from a day is beyond me

    But anyway Glad, keep up the good work and to anyone else who volunteers as well

  • You do a brilliant job Glad, I really appreciate your hard work, as I'm sure the majority of members on MSE do.

    Agree with Tranmere and Nanto 100%. I hope you don't mind me pointing out, though, that I have been doing end-dates for a year or so and, as much as I try to be a day or two ahead, sometimes life gets in the way and I do them on the day. I have never gone to do them before and had that happen, and, as much as I don't really care that much and saw it as a great chance to do tomorrow's instead, I did wonder what had happened. What I'm trying to say, Glad, is that I very nearly posted the exact same question as the OP and, if I had, it would not have been any criticism or reflection on you, just basic curiousity! Hope this helps, because I really don't see any need for anyone to feel criticised or got at over something they are under no obligation to do!
  • I'd feel a lot happier if comps were left on the board after they have finished than sent to GO early. Just saying.
