To boysinblue68 and sodemall

[sir.prize]

As this post is addressed to you two personally, no one else will read it.
Looking through the chronicles of AnswerBank, you each frequent Q & P with the same intent: too verbally 'attack' and harass anyone who dares ask a question relating to quizzes in general and Macmillan in particular.
Many ABers, have not welcomed your criticisms of them using this website to seek answers. Could you tell everyone why you have self-appointed yourselves as site 'policemen'?

Let me remind you. The compiler of the Macmillan Summer Quiz took the trouble to write on here last November to put the record straight.

Coincidentally he/she posted into a thread you were both involved with.

And that is Authority Speaking.

I rest my case.

[Tichfield]

I read your post!

Well, gosh.

[paulineward]

sir.prize...you will get this all the time.
Try and rise above it as the majority of people on this site I believe want to support charities and enjoy quizes. In fact without quizes there would be no site!!!

I actually found this site by chance...as have many others...and when I joined everyone was so helpful and kind.
I still believe most are...but I have had the 'odd' person having a go at me promoting my 'Sick Children's Charity Quiz'..(Dragonfly)...but that's okay...cos they are entitled to an opinion. But the massive support I have had has way overshadowed it!!

What I do object to is people being rude and upsetting 'newcomers' who could be put off coming back on line to us. That is a shame as I have made long term, special friendships with some wonderful people from this site.

These same nasty people are the first to criticise anybody as soon as they can..and they are to be pitied.

I for one will not 'go away'...and will treat this as MY site as well as I hope everyone else does...allowing differences of opinion to exist but not become a big issue.

Life is so so short and so fraught for many of us...why can't a site like this for like minded people...enjoying quizes... run in peace and quiet and acceptance!!??

[THECORBYLOON]

Sorry but couldn't resist having a wee look. sodemall does ma head in wi his/her non-stop mumping about folk who dare to ask help wi questions.

[paulineward]

I agree Corbyloon...a screen name like his/hers 'saysitall!!'

[ELVIS68]

[seekeerz]

..if you want to ...and with only a week to go e-mail me at [email protected] and I will send you one!!

[paulineward]

...and just as an afterthought...after visiting an 89 year old aunt for the night, and pacifying her...and attending to 2 Special Needs Daughters when I got in...and then replying to friendly e-mails...and now trying to do my crosswords and outstanding puzzles...can some of you learn a little tolerance?

You never know the circumstances of the people who pop on here thinking you might help and support...don't disappoint!

[paulineward]

...and that wasn't addressed to the good people who have so far responded!!!...It's for those who know who they are!!

[keyboardix]

You, sir.prize, should also watch your step. Perhaps you would tell me (and all of the other nice people who read these postings) why you are picking out and drawing attention to questions which I posted in January, 2008 and February last year. Have YOU nothing better to do ?

[Brooksy]

Show me someone who doesn`t make the odd typo error, especially lingering on a key for too llllllllllllllllong. Oh, & is that all you can come up with in response?

[razza]

Well said Pauline,could not have put it any better.

[THECORBYLOON]

Perhaps sodemall should stop his/her campaign against those who use this site to get answers to questions.

The name of this site is The AnswerBank not The AnswerBank (But Don't Ask For Answers Appearing In Any Quizzes Because That's Being Lazy-Have You Never Heard Of Google?????- And Annoys The Compilers [Alledgedly])

[Elspeth]

I'm very much with Pauline on this one. Either enjoy the site or leave it alone.

[Ivorbiggun]

There is no campaign against anyone! I back Sodemall entirely. When people say "I'm really struggling" with a primary-school question and have six weeks to do it, It makes my blood boil. People are now sending for quizzes, posting half of them on this site, and generally ruining them for those who enjoy a challenge.

[jodder]

Well then ivorbiggun, dont look. The choice is yours as it is our choice to ask questions {exactly what the site is for]!! And as someone who compiles quizzes I really dont mind at all people asking questions after all they compete for fun and to help charity not for a gold clock!!
