News Stories That Cannot Be Discussed

[ABSpareEditor]

Morning all,

As I'm sure you're all aware, there are certain things in the news right now that aren't allowed to be reported on, and as such, we will be erring on the side of caution and removing any threads mentioning it.

Thank you in advance for your understanding!

A list of titles/headlines hardly count as a discussion.
Still; ok.

[jackthehat]

I imagine if anyone starts a thread on the topic 'which cannot be named' it will be taken down swiftly.
If it is not noticed, people may be able to contribute *until* it is noticed and then it will be swiftly removed.
If anyone makes a reference to it in answering on a thread not itself connected with the topic itself......that answer will be removed.

And unless someone is making a gonk/nuisance of themselves by deliberately, provocatively making repeat postings, I shouldn't imagine there will be any further action taken.

So, all in all, not much to see here.....move along....

So just say what is the problem. Why be so cryptic?

I'm pretty sure none of us want to get AB into trouble but it is difficult when being put like this with some 'in the know' as they were in over the hot weekend and others were out enjoying the sun.

[jackthehat]

Why is it difficult?
There will be no come back and the 'issue' itself would become pretty apparent when and if it arises.

Just post what you would normally post; you're not going to have your front door kicked in...

[Sqad]

JTH......were you head girl/boy at your school?

[Sipowicz]

The love that dare not speak its name!

[jackthehat]

No.
Were you?

[hellywelly4]

This is very strange. I'm usually on the ball with the news but can't begin to guess what this is all about.

[youngmafbog]

Why would Sqad be? He is not the one acting superior.

[ludwig]

It's easily googleable for anyone that wants to know.

[jackthehat]

I don't think you were banned, TGT.
I think it was your tedious mangling of the English language and perjorative terms that got it removed, if the first crop of answers were anything to go by....

[ABSpareEditor]

Okay, let me be a little clearer. We will be removing any threads AND answers talking about this news story.

Come on people, it isn't difficult.

[Islay]

I think some people are being bloody minded just for the sake of it and they know exactly what this is about.
Just accept the decision of the Ed and move on!

// if the first crop of answers were anything to go by.... //

I didn't see it but I bet the language police were on it like tish off a shovel.

[Sqad]

I give in.

[ABSpareEditor]

Sqad, you're more than welcome to email me and I'll explain.
