    Hmmmm...yes that was the polite version, but not very catchy, maybe we should come up with something a little more punchy(pardon the pun-not intended)and then campaign for it? :rotfl:
    Well...I despise newbie bashing :rolleyes:

    I am lost as to where a newbie has been 'bashed', unless you are suggesting that saintscouple was doing this in implementing forum rules? :rolleyes:
    Gone ... or have I?

    Ah, just one of those completely off topic comments ...

    I hate chocolates that when you bite into them you realise they are actually coffee flavoured.

    I hope that has enlightened someone's search for Post It notes? :rolleyes:

    Nope it was not completely off topic as I felt a few comments were little un needed and I can't really see that your comments helped the search either.

    But it was OT as there aren't even any newbies on the thread!

    Yes my post was OT, demonstrating just how yours was ...

    Why don't we just post anything on Grabbit?

    I saw a really good deal at Tesco earlier, BOGOF on baked beans ...

    Next thread - FREE BEANS AT TESCO! :rolleyes:

    It may be true that I'm not a newbie(if it's me) But as you can see from my post count... I don't post here often and am not a regular... I did feel a little off and felt i'd got bashed but couldnt be bothered to get into a back and forth situation with anyone...

    I did actually look around if the thread was in another section... but as you can see it was DELETED so no search would have found it.

    The thread WAS a grabbit and the products still are.

    I merely asked if there was a prob with the product or company. Just for the future, where should I have posted?

    I wasn't wanting to find post its by the way.... I was asking what had happened to the thread!!

    gees! The last time i started a thread I got my head bitten off by someone telling me the evils of M&S and they were sick of seeing women in there spending their hubby's money!!
    wonder why I don't post much?!
    look after the pennies.....

    Any comment other than about post it's was off topic, but I guess I was just saying that extra button would have been good for when newbies/low users got bashed or when someone posts incorrectly or gets bashed in some way. I just find alot of the older/more frequent posters could be nicer to other members on mse. It is just my view. If you want to disagree that is fine as you also have yours.

    No need to be sarcastic, I was not being sarcastic or being off in any way with any member here, was simply saying I wish that button existed as I would have liked to have used it earlier.

    You seem to totally disagree with me and could not see that the op was taken aback in the third post and no doubt felt uncomfortable, but I felt they did and therefore chose to make that comment and still stand by it. Surely it was no major error on their part to post here and surely the responses could have been warmer?

    It seems nearly every day there is bashing, like yesterday when someone posted about their bankruptsy, they got bashed and I thought it was out of order and the last thing they needed. I simply feel that there are ways to point newbies/non regulars in the right direction without being abrupt. Yes fine sometimes it gets a bit tiresome seeing more moved posts etc than correct ones, but surely it could be done in a nicer more friendly manner?

    I simply find the forum etiquette gets ignored alot, that is my opinion and I chose to voice it, if you disagree that is fine
  • It was deleted. Please see This Rule.
    The OP was informed.

    Hi
    I don't normally post here but check it out every so often. Would it be possible to move any posts that are in the wrong place instead of deleting them? I'm finding I'm having to rely more & more on other websites for info these days when I want to go back & check on something I'd been interested in. I know it's a lot of work but maybe call it The Hall Of Shame ;) as a sub-group under the Discounts forum? People would soon get the message in a fun way!
    As to the original thread, 3M are honouring the price & the code - I phoned them today & they could not have been more helpful. Full marks to 3M & thanks OP.

    I'm looking forward to getting them!! as i said in original thread,my kiddies are sure to want to "share"
    will be nice for their room and projects.

    I too would like some kind of "sin bin" for threads that can be moved and/or edited instead of deleted so they can be refered back to... I would like to know when/if anyone gets their order etc.

    btw, if this thread is in wrong place, please mods can you move it
