I have emailed the Ed about response messages

[dotjhawkes]

but still nothing is happening. Has this been sorted out now? Anybody else not getting emails when they have a reply to a thread?

[Drisgirl]

I've noticed that it takes ages for a Q to show they have a reply even although they might have 5 if you go into it.

[ELVIS68]

I get a reply within two days

[Drisgirl]

Sods Law - took minutes to change .

Just like flamingo with her quotes example - I still laugh at that yet:)

dot, maybe AnswerBank is sending them but they are getting intercepted by a spam filter somewhere along the route. Have you checked your spam filter settings? Have you looked in your spam folder? I occasionally find a genuine email ends up with the spam so it is not just AB that has overactive spam robots!.

gen 2 the genius is it now? I just pressed some options thing and I get an email from the Ed apologising for the bullying I received over the weekend. Well done gen2. I feel a lot better now too, I didn't realise the bullying was just by one or two users with several IDs,. and I also thought they were working on Ed's behalf, in fact just the opposite Ed tells, me. Oh well, now I know that i can laugh at the pathetic actions of a loser who has no life but to bully and aggravate people just trying to pass a few hours between stressing out at work and sleeping.

10 CS. no I think it was just the bullies, not jno, they (or maybe there is just one) caused bother over the weekend again

Hi dot - I have to say that having been away for a while the nastiness that goes on would almost put you off. I said almost. I always read your posts and enjoy them.

[dotjhawkes]

Hey Peri! Well us normal balanced folk just enjoy the activity on here, we don't want to be bullies or nasty.

[Woodsz]

I got pulled because of a bit of light hearted humour

Hi Pere how are you love nice to see you back

[Peri]

Hi Woodz. Am afraid to move around here at the moment. Nice to be back anyway. How are you

[dotjhawkes]

No wodsz you were reported cos you are light hearted and humorous, and the ED has seemingly been too busy to look at it all

[Woodsz]

Thanks for your reply Dot. Its a shame a few more cant have a smiles now and again.

Pere better for seeing you back

[Peri]

Hi 10CS.I did post you a few times after the holidays but we always seemed to miss each other by a few days. Im all for a bit of crack Woodz (will prob be reported) but over here thats fun. Where can we chat these days ? And dot were you green last night ?

[jno]

oh hello 10CSt. I'm not AB Ed and I don't report posts that call me names, only sweary or wrong-category ones as a rule. I didn't report yours.

[dotjhawkes]

I was Peri, because the bullies kept reporting me I ended up temp. barred, oh, and here's a clue, if u just report for wrong catagory or irreelevent chat, it isn't removed, it has to be profane or worse! And only a few reports are necessary for that! So these bullies have had to use that option, so they are abusing the Site Rules completely/

[dotjhawkes]

jno is sweary a word! tut tut! :) lol

[Peri]

Can these bullies by named and shamed dot ? Hi jno

[dotjhawkes]

You just need to work out who's contributions have gone that were just general enquiries, and then try to remember the names of the antagonistic users. I have a couple of names, an obvious one has definatelty been banned.

I am off out for an hour or so, I hope you are all able to carry on this harmonious discussion about the welfare of the site in my absence! BRB :)
