I know i might well get attacked for this but i would just like to ask is their a limit to the number of threads that are put up by the same member? i cant see anything on the page bar a list of what i would perceive to be quite silly questions, i think it ruins it a bit for others, just a thought xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I assume by 'the page' you're referring to Body & Soul.
AB's system does temporarily ban anyone who makes an excessive number of posts in a very short period of time (which results in all of their posts disappearing from view) but I agree that it needs to be further refined to get rid of much of the rubbish which appears in B&S.
I'm not trying to be a killjoy but I sometimes wonder if the types of posts which are currently appearing deter people with genuine worries from posting in B&S.
For example, when first joined AB (about 15 months ago), I was able to assist several people (by directing them to relevant charities and support group websites) who had recently been diagnosed with serious medical conditions (or where they were concerned for a family member with such a condition). I'm sure that many of these people will have had to summon up a great deal of courage before posting their concerns on AB. I'm worried that such people might now take one look at the current content of that section and decide that they don't feel confident about posting serious questions there.

Chris is right, Bez and i have been sayinjg this for months, it is getting worse, i debated for ages as to whether it was worth me posting my thead about the up coming mamogram. I eventually decided I would ask for some advice and support and i am glad I did but it took alot for me to do that, as i don't tend to use B&S for personal issues myself.
Carla is right about the content of the posts lately, but i know alot of the garbage has gone now that there is the alternative site where it seems they can discuss their pervy and crude ways away from answerbank.

I agree with you nursecarla, and with other posters. But a lot of the rubbish gets posted at night or over the weekend when the site is unmoderated; so there's not much to be done about it until the next day or week.
I didn't know there was a pervy alternative site, Dot (I won't ask for the URL), but there are still one or two ABers it could take.

''alot (sic) of the garbage has gone now that there is the alternative site where it seems they can discuss their pervy and crude ways away from answerbank.''
Well Dot ... it seems thou dost protest too much.
It also seems you're the only one that's not having fun.
Shame that.
I'm sure you'd really enjoy it, the ''garbage'' wouldn't mind.
Oh, but wait, you weren't invited were you?
Now why do you think that was?
I suggest you read back through some of your recent ''accusational'' posts, then go find a mirror and take a long, hard look at yourself.

Well said sue....
Dot, you really do think the you have a say in this site. I bet 'Justin & Tim' are bloody well sick of your emails. Most of the 'garbage' didn't really post many questions on here anyway and just joined in the banter. I get the impression that you do not like it when others are having fun that excludes you.
As for the questions nursecarla.......I agree, most of it could be kept in one thread instead of taking up the whole page.

ummmm I knew nothing of you til you nudged me on msn and asked me how to track down that Keirah person who had threatened to shoot you in the face, seems you needed a private investigator or something, but i can't remember what it was that got you so rattled after that actually, i know it was something to do with either you or one of your mates being in the wrong and being sussed and then being upset cos i found out about it, but just can't remember, i have worked some long hours since then.
Gotta say i don't know why any aber would be so uposet at another as to start making death threats on msn like that kierah did to you, i would have called in the police for that, have you still got the conversation? I have.

Absolutely I have......
I asked your opinion. I also asked you not to say anything because it wasn't said to me but to someone else on msn. So this goes to prove a point there Dot don't you think?
That also wasn't the first time I had spoken to you you on msn, although previously it had been with others in one convo.
I will pinpoint what got you rattled shall I?
You didn't like me being nice to zigzag because zigzag wasn't nice to you. You then tried to convince me that zigzag was Steviep....I asked Stevie about it and he left a sarcy message on one of your threads.....You then went on to read and report my posts to other users. By sending them emails telling them what I had said, getting the answer removed and then making it out to be much worse than it actually was, which then went on to another argument and showed the rest of AB that you was a sh1t stirring liar.
I also have my message history of convo's with other people that was dragged into. The difference between me and you?
I wouldn't dream of passing it on.....

oh yes I remember now, like I said, you made a mistake, got sussed and didn't like you cyber mates knowing you are human after all. So drop this and I will ignore that you are a very aggressive nasty person who can't let things go. i had totally forgotten it all til you stuck your beak in here again today.
wtf are you on about woman....my cyber mates? who are they? Any cyber mates I have know only to well that I'm human....
Drop it.....wasn't it you who said that we can post where we want?
Got sussed? Made a mistake? ffs Dot....did you read the reply's to the threads.....If my memory serves me correctly, and it does, you was the one that got sussed and you was the one that made the mistake. The mistake being, battersby was the last person you should have emailed because you didn't bank on her copying and pasting you emails on here did you?
Agressive and nasty.......that's me to a tee...won't argue on that point at all....But believe me...this is me being tame...
