    Be sadly missed. Silence your critics by using legal oppression.

    A good egg. Will be sorely missed from this sub.

    I've just come up to speed on the London Capital etc thread and I'm amazed. I had ignored it up to now as I would have nothing useful or good to say about the company as I avoid the type of financial products they provide. However, if the two very long posts that seem to be the origin of the issues haven't broken any forum rules I conclude that the rules need to be changed. If this has resulted in the loss of dunstonh then it's pretty ridiculous and it's MSE's and our loss.

    Ultimately MSE makes the rules and as much as the contributors might feel some ownership in reality they have none. Right now I have a similar opinion of the MSE administrators as I do London Capital Finance.

    Wisdom and the ability to make you smile at his straight talk. Hopefully sense will prevail, even if he then chooses not to come back.

    A great loss to MSE forumites.
    Like others here I will miss reading dunstonh's knowledgable comments and can only offer my thanks for the information I have been able to gain from them.

    I also found DunstonH to give sound advice. Very sad to see him/her go.

    If you're reading this, Thank You.
  • Lets be honest, is this pensions board worth a dam without her/him ?
  • A shame as he was very knowledgeable and will be much missed.

  • Agree with all the other posters. I have learned a lot from dunstonH's contributions. I didn't always (but often did) agree with him, but his posts were always worth reading. It is ludicrous to bar him.

    Anyway, if you happen to be reading this DunstonH, thank you for passing on your knowledge.

    Very sad ending indeed. Dunstonh was behind the best financial idea I ever found on these forums. I was only thinking the other day he deserved an open note of thanks anyway and then I had noticed he stopped posting and wondered what had happened.
