Good afternoon AnswerBank,

Faster...? What could be faster than this, cazzz1975 ;-)

[AB Editor]

Hi Pasta, we do not engage with abusive users on a personal level. I've noticed that a lot of drivel has disappeared from the site, thanks for asking.

All the best

If you all read the rules..................once you are banned there is NO return The ED does not have to give a reason and his decision is final.
There have been many people banned over the years, if you let one come back, then all would want to come back.

Maybe the ED should sign off with a reminder of the Site Rules.

I don't think the sites dull either :-)

Sure, it's missing it's spiteful foul mouthed elements but with certain parties missing, I happen to think that's a blessing.

Perhaps if some users are no longer happy with how the site is now operating, they now look for a more suitable home for themselves?

[AB Editor]

cazzz1975 - damn right it will be faster. It will look a little bit nicer too. Mostly the same though.

I noticed this:

"I'm afraid we cannot go any further into the fine-details of G.NOME technology as it is a classified project.

I can however say that it is a joint venture between the U.S. Airforce, the European Space Agency and The Answerbank. "

I am very disappointed that MI5 are not part of the consortium.

And maybe Lord Mandelson could have added his perspective as he seems to be a person who is now in charge of "everything else".

[swedeheart]

No avatars?

[AB Editor]

Good idea kjc.

I am glad there is some support here. Thanks everyone!

Hi Ed, is there any way of letting users that stopped coming on here because of the abuse know that the site is a much better place to be nowadays? Personally, I think that although it has been quieter, this will improve once users get to see that there have been changes and that they are permanent.

"And maybe Lord Mandelson could have added his perspective as he seems to be a person who is now in charge of "everything else"."

Rollo, dont you know who the Big Ed is?

All the best,

Do you mean there is a user on here using dothawkes with a 'w' or there is a dothavvkes with a 'v's. if it is the first one and you are saying 'someone' has nicked it then that someone is obviously me!!! So if it is still active please email on this email addy and i will use the email addy for that one to sort it out.

If it is dothavvkes with 2 vs it should be banned as it is obviously an imposterer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dina73]

awwwww gigi..............I wanted to be betty boop.
I'll fight you for it.
LOL

[Rollo]

I know the Big Ed is not Lord M.

[cazzz1975]

will there be more regular moderating in the long run Ed?

[B00]

Dotty, rofl- i read that through 3 times ^ and im still none the wiser!

Eh?

[Rollo]

Of couse, I do not know whether the Big Ed is somebody WITH "leg" in his many user names.

[swedeheart]

Avatars, Eds?

[dot.haukes]

Or are you saying that any previously registered user id that has been zapped is now no longer a possible new id cos the system will think it already is in use even if it isn;t
