where did it go?

[alan07]

what happened to the pink/brown curtains question? its gone?

[4getmenot]

It just went coz it was just silly. I think this one will go shortly too, Theres too many questions being banned today then follow on questions saying 'where did that go'. It could go on forever....

[alan07]

i see. im new to this site thats all. i just saw a question then it was gone.

[crete]

what is going on ?

[~owzat~]

Plus the two "new" posters threads, went caboosh!!

(MrMcfluffy and monkey something)

Crikey, as you say 4get, makes you wonder whether its worth replying !!

[4getmenot]

Oh I didnt realise as newbies usernames are usually green. But you will find pointless questions seem to disapear if people have reported it. Welcome to the site. :-)

Hey alan,

What was the answer, then ? lol P or B ?

[crete]

newbies is a very condescending title

[alan07]

i dont think the pink/brown curtains question was that silly......might have been a genuine question. just people interperate them in different ways. i did! lol

[alan07]

p - most definately. :-) u know this discussion will probably be abliterated soon anyway!

[4getmenot]

when writing about monkeys and the being asked to put a serious question and coming up with that then no wonder it disappeared.

[alan07]

ive been registered a while, just never been on.

[alan07]

is that why there is a kind of warning message at the top of the body and soul page? coz people are taking the ****?

[4getmenot]

Yes some users get away with it but some dont and get banned.

[~owzat~]

I agree crete, it can be seen as being like that...I felt a little bit offended initially.

Believe it or not, it even says 'newbies' on AB about us/registration Q's etc.

[4getmenot]

Oh my god newbies is just short for new people. Was being newbie-ist or anything.

[alan07]

condescending?!!!!! thats gotta be word of the day! get in!

[4getmenot]

How about this, I didnt realise alan07 was new as he wasnt in a green colour. :-)

[alan07]

like i say i've been registered a few weeks, just hardly been actually on here.

[~owzat~]

Sorry 4get,

Crossed purposes here - I am not new, new (registered beginning of June - I think!), I was agreeing with Crete because now and again, with various goings on [especially this w/e], some Abers have said "newbies" in a less than flattering way. Not, because they are having a go at ALL newbies, but to anyone fresh in here, it might look slightly off. This generally only happens (thank goodness) when something has incited someone's anger, and they spout forth in a less flattering manner.

Anyhow, 4get hope this clears up any misunderstanding.

it is my experience some people think they own this site and use any question to chat with each other and can be very dismissive of new people it would seem some of them e mail each other and have contact when at work why would you do that thats be blacklisted now some of them very powerful.
