Thread Removal
30 Answers
Can I suggest that AB raises the amount of reports that it takes to remove a thread? I know that there are people on here who have multiple IDs and we seem to have narrow-minded members who patrol the corridors of AB as self-appointed moral guardians. I think that reporting of a thread by three people (or one with multiple IDs) is hardly a true reflection of general opinion. If a thread is truly offensive then you would get many more than three reports on it. Three reports seems hardly fair to me unless it's for an imposter. So come on Mrs ABEd can't the number be raised a bit more to stop do-gooders spoiling things for everyone?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Octoovius i do agree with the majority of what you say, but without being argumentative as I don't want to be patronised or treated as a lame brain, the topic does say Body and Soul, and the Soul bit to me means relationships, either current, past or future. I don't post stuff on there mush and when I do it tends to be about the coping of life in general, I agree there is some awful stuff going on here and it takes an effort to read it sometimes, that I don't appreciate but the pathetic stuff should be separated from the genuine questions asking how to talk to a new bloke, how to find a man worth finding etc. In that respect I suppose some people do consider it a kind of lonely hearts club, but if that is how their particular soul reads the rules then what can you do? (I have had another lie in too and I feel a lot better today!)
does that include the mrs harris topic dot? i think you are being a wee bitty two faced there!
this place is called the ANSWER bank meaning its a place to answer questions...no matter how silly. loppy's question was not worded in a leering way...no more leering than mrs harris's saggy breasts yet those threads are never reported or removed. john lambert's thread about the exact same subject was left un-reported and maybe you will find of the 200 replies i received a lot of them were yours dot....not in reference to the question but on bobtheturkeys obsession with the aforementioned married lady. go figure!
In reply to Doot.Hawkes.
I agree that relationship advice is fine, in fact I have often responded in times where I think that someone is concerned about their relationship or finding a new person, or just curious about life in general etc.
I have no idea what thread the original Q by Aprilis was, so I cannot comment on that specifically. I don't wish to 'pick on' anyone specific but my previous response refers to Q's such as the present 'for bob' question in B&S.
