    Happened to me around Christmas time. I posted the same Merry Christmas message on a few of the threads that I regularly haunt on here, and the MSE robots thought I was a spammer, so banned my IP address. I had to contact the forum team to get unblocked, which took around 10 days :eek:

    :eek::eek: how silly

    Tenth Anniversary
    Evening peeps. :)

    Read back a little, been watching e-formula and F1 racing! Started to watch footie, but that's going one way. :(

    Spent over an hour trying to fit the meats in my freezer, took it all out of the packaging and into bags, not a chance!! I ended up giving some to neighbours.

    My freezer is now full of pies and meat. Not bad when it was all free.:D

    How things turn around. 2 1/2 years ago I was in desperate need of help, now I'm giving back again. Feels bloody brilliant.

    I so love the ELITE way. :T

    I haven't got the energy bubbs...I'm slobbed out watching the football:rotfl:

    The house is now quiet and I feel I've got a hundred jobs to do but can't be bothered.
    I must fight the urge to be a perfectionist....would it really have mattered if I hadn't made homemade stuffing today, or washed all the towels or raced to A to buy more potatoes.....and now I'm exhausted and thinking I should water as Mr TM is going to be in no fit state tomorrow:o
    My feet are killing me:o

    Does anyone on here do foot massages or even feet massage:rotfl:

    No it wouldnt have mattered as would still be there tomorrow, im proud to say i have not done much this weekend:rotfl::rotfl: apart from run back and forth with the dogs:D

    I remember some of your desperate posts scamps......and even recently your fears over moving house and I'm so pleased your luck is changing......your kindness to others comes back to you by way of good fortune. What goes around comes around:)

    I didn't before, but I do now:T.
    So, more expensive now than it has been previously, as you will no longer get 10% off that price (unless you have an A colleague card) as it seems the £1 price is no longer a competitor price, so that £1 A offer has made it worse:(:rotfl:. Now avoid!:rotfl::rotfl:

    Evening paw sniffers:D

    The weekend. continues.......Mr TM came off his bike again today:o going over the handlebars and landing flat on his back on the road. He's a mass of cuts and bruises but has been checked out and no broken bones. Oh joy.

    Off fir a catch up.

    Ouch, poor Mr TM, pleased he is ok TM. Make sure you are gentle with him tonight :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    It is such a worry having a cyclist in the family, every time ds3 is out racing or training I'm worried sick :o. He has had a few spills but luckily he's been ok. He could get knocked off or hit a stone on the road on his other bike when he uses it for work though. I always remember the saying "Think bike" when I'm out driving :)

    Right back to Big Brother and my nightly catch up, 3 pages to go now X
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    I can't remember my last win and I can't gift anymore :eek::eek:

    Evening luvlies, just catching up. I emailed ipint and asked them why we can no longer gift a voucher. They replied saying it seems the option was removed on the last update but they will check with the developers of the app and get back to me

    Happened to me around Christmas time. I posted the same Merry Christmas message on a few of the threads that I regularly haunt on here, and the MSE robots thought I was a spammer, so banned my IP address.

    that's because the MSE rule states "Forum users mustn't post comments more than once on the forum (the only exception is members of the MSE Team)".

    Only post something once then you won't be breaking the rule and potentially be banned.
