    What about my feelings?

    Do you take the new guys feelings more seriously?

    Why?

    Why do you want to derail discussions completely off topic so that all and sunder throw their tuppence about who Going backwards was?

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Your feelings? Seriously? You think you have some kind of God-given right to satisfy your own curiosity?

    TBH I'm done with this thread. If you guys really cannot understand the points I have made I just give up

    You brought feelings into it Beasty.

    Are you going backward? I think I spoke to you before. Can we derail the discussion to talk who you were in a previous carnation?

    Only illustrating how some want free rein to derail discussions completely off topic

    As explained to you above the mods spend a lot of time on rereg posters - sometimes there may actually be nothing actionable though

    Ohh that mods spend a lot of time on rereg posters I have been told numerous times alright.

    What I haven`t been told, but I can easily work out for myself, is that the easier option is burying collective heads in sand as to how the rule on reregs can, and is being used imo, to bait and troll ignored, and posters who do not pretend they are both blind and stupid sanctioned.

    You and all other mods may not agree with that, and as such are entitled to your opinions as I am to mine.

    This is going around in circles. I, & others, have said why speculation on re-regs & calling them out on-thread is not permitted.

    Rest assured, re-reg trolls are actively hunted down & banned. But not every re-reg is a troll.

    Thanks for the feedback, but the case to change site & forum rules has not been convincing. Rather than drag this out & go over the same argument again & again, this thread is closed.

    Thanks,

    tHB
