By the way, don't people like Rollo and Magyar realise that, by posting idiotic answers it prevents real members from answering? They naturally assume the questions have been answered. Rather selfish to my way of thinking.

Looked at your link , yet , cannot think who they are as never seen these people before? Still, would like to say to you, you can catch more insects/bichos with honey than you can ever with vinegar. Be kind to Rollo + Magyar then you may find your answers from someone here ,yet, if you get your claws out to a fellow puzzler you may find that no one wants to answer your question even in they have the right answer for you. Better to be sweet/kind/polite in this precious/wonderful life + make peace/ make love instead of make war / make enemies.

Agree 100% with Beatrice

[Rolo44]

Thanks Beatrice and dicmor for your answers.
I wouldn't dream of getting my "claws out to a fellow puzzler". My gripe is with the obstructive people who try to spoil the site.
I come on here to answer questions and occasionally to ask them. Some people seem to only want to pick fault with other folks' questions. This is infuriating and unnecessary.

[Magyar]

I take exception to my posting being considered 'idiotic', and myself as being obstructive. I was merely trying to point out to you that if you want to catch the 'bright people' on a Sunday, that you would better be posting your question on a Sunday.
Thanks to Beatrice35 and dicmor for your comments.

[Rolo44]

...and it was quite obviously posted on a Saturday night ready for the sunday morning early birds.
I think the difference between us is that I could take cheap shots at people's questions, but I don't.
By adding your idiotic comment, the decent people on here thought my question had been answered.
Do you understand yet?

[Magyar]

With your kind of attitude I'd be amazed if anybody (decent or not) was willing to help you out by answering your questions. Post closed !!!!!

[Rolo44]

Many people help me and have been helped by me on this site. We answer each other's questions.
People like you are clearly not welcome on this site.
Thank you to those members who have supported me in speaking out against obstructive time wasters.

Magyar- Big hugs to you (i)
Rollo 44- Magyar made a most valid point ( certainly not obfuscating either)+ feel that you have not been kind or just to her in your responses. Magyar is clearly welcome on this site+ a valuable member here. It is unkindness that is not welcome on this site or anywhere else in this world- enough darkness in the world + media as it is- so we all need to be ripples of goodness/kindness + decide to choose love instead of any negativity, yes, we all need to be envoys of love and be like candles in the darkness + light up this world with all that is truly beautiful- to add to the light + be little lights. Have had a few unkind words spoken to me here on these boards, yet, mostly decide to ignore them + the poster themself as always better to be the bigger person anyhow. Have enough friends to feel secure in who I am + am a friend to myself too- so am not bothered by the words of fools( people who lack common sense or common decency). Having a good general knowledge is fine yet if that is not matched with an equal amount of kindness or common sense or common decency then the person with this knowledge amounts to little + they will love to belittle others too. So ensure your heart/conscience is as toned as your mind- be fit in your kindness muscles too :-)

Good that you help people Rollo44 with answers yet help people with your kindness too- be slow to judge/accuse/ throw stones or speak words that can hurt + be quick to be polite + quick to be a ripple of kindnes, quick to say sorry + quick to make a difference in this life for life is precious + we are all equals in this world. We may not all be friends yet there is no reason to be unfriendly to anyone. Careful in the company we keep, for sure, yet, at the same time careful as to how we treat every single individual.

(i)Angel hugs to you all, every single one of you as we all need love whether we deserve it or not (i)

Ciao, Beatrice ;-)

[Rolo44]

Thanks once more for your words of wisdom Beatrice 35.

One aspect of your writing does concern me. It appears that you are attempting to paint me as the villain in this situation. I was speaking for the majority and merely pointing out how infuriating it is to have one's questions blocked unnecessarily.

You will not find any unkindness from me. I admit that I don't suffer fools gladly, but my attitude is Live and let live.

My original point stands. This site is not called The Blocksomeone'sanswerbank.

May I wish you all a Happy and prosperous New Year.

Thanks to all those people who have helped me this year.

[Beatrice35]

Was not painting you as the villain- sorry if you felt that way Rollo44. Just no need to call any names like selfish or idiotic to anyone here. Have had a few of my answers blocked yet did not take it personally + have had some claws put on me by someone else on this board for no good reason too- yet, felt sad for that person more than anything else.

Peace is my middle name + want there to be peace everwhere- not retalliations or any unnkindness. As long as you receive your answers to your questions that is all that matters. One has to turn a blind eye to many words that are said or many actions. One has to sometimes resist the urge to reply to a comment that is either unhelpful or unkind too. Like the Chinese Proverb,' Never answer a letter whilst one is angry.' No one is perfect especially those who claim to be or claim to be nearly perfect. We all have our flaws so we need to exercise patience with one another or sometimes to ignore another person if they have indeed been talking folly. Sometimes, we can misinterpret what others say to us that is why we need to be slow to react.

'Humour is like a rubber sword- it makes a point without drawing blood.'- author unknown to me

Have no hard feelings to you at all , not in the slightest,Rollo44. Just like there to be peace- quite simply. Want to wish you a Most Prosperous New Year + May you know much happiness +may you be a blessing to all in all the ways that you possibly can ;-) (i) Angel hugs to you Rollo44 (i)


Angel hugs to you (i) dicmor(i) and to you (i) Magyar (i) + to all on answerbank (i)

Ciao, Hugs, Beatrice :-)

Somebody said:

"By the way, don't people like Rollo and Magyar realise that, by posting idiotic answers it prevents real members from answering? They naturally assume the questions have been answered. Rather selfish to my way of thinking."




Did I post an idiotic answer somewhere?

Goodness, graccious me! How awful.

I'm stunned.

Big hugs to yo Rollo (i)

Beatrice will be your cheerleader! :-)
