AH isn’t controlling what people post. He’s merely asking AOG to say why he repeats questions over and over.

[THECORBYLOON]

Did he ask the MOBO question last year?

I think we all know that this site is funded by advertisers. Obviously the more members posting Qand As will attract advertisers else the site dies.
When you consider the comparitable membership years of both aog and a-h I believe Mr aog is doing an admiral job in helping this site keep going. Mr aogs Questions= 7906. In a similar period our other contender 710. Keep up the good work Mr aog.

Bobbi - // A-H
Don't you think it wrong of you to control what people want to post? //

It would be - if I was able to do that at all, or indeed trying to do so, but since neither is the case, I don't think about it at all.

[Mozz71]

//in fact if it wasn't for me entering threads on subjects such as these, the news section would be a most boring place.//

Trust me AOG, you're not helping there.

[Peter Pedant]

// Mr aogs Questions= 7906. In a similar period our other contender 710. Keep up the good work Mr aog.//

what about a good bit of smut to enliven ( 'reinvigorate') an otherwise limp discussion

if it numbber of times a day, he performsm then dear Mr AOG clearly wins
but if it is length ( Mr Andie is notoriously verbose) then Mr AH wins, everyone knows a few more inches can make a difference

( column inches, in a post, dear reader I assure you)

Obviously even in your roll as a moderator you are unable to control what fellow ABers enter up for discussion, unless of course they break Site Rules.

But regarding "Trying to do so," that is exactly what you do, when you constantly criticise ABers for entering threads or posts that do not fit in with your own particular personal agenda.

This in turn might persuade new ABers or even some of the more timid ABers from posting on certain subjects, but believe me sir, you will never dissuade me from posing just what I choose to do so, so you might as well get used to it.

[anotheoldgit]

Thank you Bobbisox1 and retrocop for your very kind support.

I do hope that the Editor is taking into account the uncalled for behaviour of andy-hughes.

AOG //But regarding "Trying to do so," that is exactly what you do, when you constantly criticise ABers for entering threads or posts that do not fit in with your own particular personal agenda. //

Just to be clear, I don't 'constantly criticise' anyone, and I have no 'particular personal agenda'.

// This in turn might persuade new ABers or even some of the more timid ABers from posting on certain subjects, but believe me sir, you will never dissuade me from posing just what I choose to do so, so you might as well get used to it. //

I have no intention of ever stopping anyone from posing, or indeed posting (!) - and I am perfectly used to it!

You did answer my original question, so I think we can leave it there.

[Peter Pedant]

o god AOG and Andie
tis like Corbyn and the Blessed Boris - you called the election - no you did! - you are a bad man !
No Miss ! he called me a bad man and that is very bad in my religion!

and so it goes on ....

[spathiphyllum]

Invasion? I think that's the wrong word.

[Peter Pedant]

I dont believe it
in the time it takes me to put together ten words in some sort of order (or not)
he's done a side of foolscap

[sanmac]

Insidious infiltration then? Especially if you like alliteration.

[spathiphyllum]

Doesn't work either SanMac.

[bainbrig]

Surprise surprise! Anoth er thread started by anotheoldgit, and this time it’s all about... stopping those pesky foreigners!

Whatever next!

Were you there in the early 1900s, anothe? Supporting the Daily Mail’s campaign to stop Britain allowing those dreadful Russian Jews coming in? They claimed to be escaping persecution, too...

[douglas9401]

Incursion

[Zacs-Master]

It’s neither sudden, nor brief, nor an invasion.

[anotheoldgit]

To whom it may concern.

Thank you for editing bainbrig's misuse of my username.

However I can't understand why the post was not removed.

It strikes me that threads usually end up as playground spats whatever a Moderator or Editor does.

There's a good 'first day at school' thread in Chatterbank.
