Windy, or whichever administrator was responsible.

Extract from BBS Rules '... the BBS and its moderators reserve the right in their absolute discretion (a) to remove or edit individual threads and/or posts; and (b) to ban or suspend users or modify posting privileges where it is considered justified in order to maintain the smooth running and integrity of the site.......'

When you get round to reading this can you explain why if you didn't approve of Poet telling Albatross to **** off in a thread last week (Albatross didn't seem that upset) you didn't just delete the thread or suspend him from this board, instead of trying to drop him in it with his employer.

Even Tommy Tyke wouldn't have stooped so low.

 

Windy, site admin????, he will love you for life

, just kidding Don

 

It looks like I've missed all the fun! nt

 

It was nothing to do with me.

</p>

What's it got to do with you?</p>

 

nowt to do wi me either, just made me chuckle

 

Can you please explain what 'trying to drop him it with his employer' means?

Cos I haven't got a clue what you are on about.

 

Well, for a start I'm a user of this board and it would be nice to know what the rules really are, and for that reason I think it's got to do with everybody.
And it was done in your name Don.

 

You seem to know a lot about it.

</p>

So I assume you also know I've already spoken to Poet about it. Why point the finger at me?</p>

 

I mean emailing his employer and pointing out that he'd been posting from work; even providing a link to the offending post.
It isn't the first time admin has done it and it could have cost the lad his job.

 

Because your name was on top of the email Windy. I apologise if it wasn't you but it was a pretty extreme reaction to a, in my mind, minor spat on the board.
It's also resulted in access to the board being barred from his work.

 

No worries.

I'd have thought the fact that my name was on it might have raised a doubt or two.

I had an email with my name in the signature too. I don't want to give too much gratification on here to whoever's playing silly buggers so I'll forward you the PM I've just sent to Terry Nutkins.

 

Wo , if that has happened

that is well and truly out of order
Anyone who did have action taken by an employer could sue the admin if they have stooped so low.
I am sure they have not , all they have to do is to deny the allegation.

 

I've PM'd Nutkins what I know mate.

</p>

I'll send the same message to the Site Admin account.</p>

 

Site Admin Team a/c disabled. Sent it to yours instead. nt

.

 

Sue the admin?

Hardly. But yes, it would have been a bit out of line.

 

First question

How did they know who Poet worked for ?

 

What the bleedinghell is going on here?

a) I've no idea what post we are on about</p>

b) I've no idea who Poet's employer is and
</p>

c) If someone has e-mailed a posters employer pretending to be part of Site Admin then that person will be permanently banned from this BBS.</p>

</p>

I am extremely offended by this allegation!!
</p>

 

Who's 'they'

(dunno) (dunno)
Be a bit more specific in future.

 

The person or persons responsible

for e-mailing Poet's employers.</p>
