Eradicated threads/suspensions

[Answerprancer]

Hi Ed/spare/moderators.
I accept that there is a 'keep it nice' ethos here and I do my best to stick to the rules but do you *have* to nanny this place so much that threads are zapped and people are suspended so readily ?
Surely a little more 'let it run its course' lenience is not asking too much and a little less censorship will allow personalities/views be seen in all their true colous, warts and all.
I appreciate that you have to draw the line somewhere, but I have seen a lot of threads pulled that were crammed with fascinating insights, colourful and constructive viewpoints and several posters suspended summarily for reasons that seemed pretty innocuous to me (even though they may also conflict with my own views).
My suggestion: please give warnings if you think someone is spoiling the ship for a ha'pennyworth of tar rather than just deleting entire threads/suspending people.
Thanks.

I think the Ed's said this quite a few times, Ron... in fact it's probably the message on his answerphone and has been hacked by the News of the World.

is that a 'spot which one's different' in your last line, doc?

It's number 2.

Perhaps he'll come round to your house an entertain you with an evening's guitar paying by way of a prize, jno.........

Won't that be fun?

Evening Doc.

what, about your guitar playing? I thought that was very charitable.

Report away doc........I was simply answering Mrs C's question about how often people can be suspended before they'll be banned for good.......

But if it makes you feel better.......:o) XXX

<<It'd be interesting to know, though, how many times one can be suspended before a ban becomes inevitable. >>

That's the question I was answering.......save you having to look for it.

boxtops .....I am throwing in the towel....and as they say "He who fights and runs away, lives to fight another day" :-)

Nevertheless it will be very interesting to see if The Ed comments, personally. tomorrow.

I'm now off to bed because I have a big challenge come tomorrow. Fighting a 100 yards of farmland hedge which separates my garden from fields behind and needs some drastic attention to preserve the open country view.

Good night all ....Ron.

[jackthehat]

That was yesterday, doc..........you're too late for 'the unmasking'.........

Bit of a damp squib it was, too...........:o(

sleep well, ron, I won't be far behind you !
