Pulled thread?

[mike11111]

Oops! Has someone with an ID vaguely resembling a Central Asian Republic just been removed from here?

[chelle7272]

Yes his profile is showing banned

[mike11111]

Thanks. How do you get to view the profile of someone when there is no avatar to click on?

[factor-fiction]

Yes, I had just typed a long reply and when I pressed SUBMIT nothing happened. What a waste of time.
Of course many people spotted who it was (or was imitating) straight away but it was a good thread, like the ABBA one.
Maybe we are wasting our time responding to any new threads unless it comes from a well known bone-fide regular.

Oh was it the singer thread? I was enjoying that.

[chelle7272]

Yes i was enjoying those threads too :-(

Surprised I remembered how to spell it actually :-)

[boxtops]

^ then click on a question, and click on the avatar - the profile will come up

[LoftyLottie]

That was a nice thread.

[jno]

was this another banned user trying to crawl under the fence?

[LoftyLottie]

Goodness knows. All I know was that it was a nice inoffensive thread.

[mike11111]

Yet another one pulled? Just nipped out to the shop for some ciggies and when I came back, there it was gone! Quite harmless, merely evoking childhood memories, which I was enjoying as nostalgia and I go back a long way. Can't remember the ID of the OP so have no way of checking.

[cazzz1975]

nice question yes but from a user that has been abusive to several here during the week.

[jackthehat]

cuddlesthechimp, or the idiot formerly known as 'klown'.

Despite the friendly and innocent tone of the early threads he makes he *will* at some point suffer meltdown at which point he will become spectacularly offensive to anyone in his sight-line.

It's best to get rid of him asap and then the decent folks can have a pleasant evening without their memories, bon mots, confidences and jokes disappearing when the thread gets pulled....

[craft1948]

I like a bon mot....

[mike11111]

Still rather sad though. I spent a good 15 mins typing an anecdote about my early school days, only to find that it has disappeared into the ether. I accept that there is no reason to be gratuitously abusive to individuals, but when all is said and done these are merely pixels on a screen from people whom most of us do not know personally, or are ever likely to encounter.

Time for me to come out of the closet: I LOVE THE DAILY MAIL. Logging off now, will deal with the hate-filled responses tomorrow, Bonsoir à tous!

[jno]

do post your memories again when you come back, I'd like to see what kind of warped and abused childhood could lead an otherwise sentient being to read the Mail :-)

this known person alwats registers as 'female' BTW, not in any way means it really is female, but it is a curious consistency
