Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    You can't post in my thread OP.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,460 ✭✭✭Barry Badrinath


    Only people who agree with you are allowed post in your thread.

    Everyone else is a troll.

    Right place and you're getting the right answers.

    Of course you can't choose. What would be the point of that?

    You could have a private forum that's essentially the same thing

    Well there are invite only private forums, it's the same thing. Sometimes people just want to chat with like minded people, or friends

    Getting a forum set up is a far cry from starting a thread though.

    Yeah sure, I'm not in favour of it either, just saying that some people are interested.

    Are we assuming that free will exists and that it is possible
    for SudsandSurf to decide anything?

    I wasn't sure to be honest. I had a PM from someone telling me not to post in their threads again

    I asked for a muslim point of view on a particular issue and a non-muslim gave his uninformed opinion. I told him i didn't want his opinion; he reported me and my thread was locked by an unwiped a$$hole of a cmod.

    Moral of the story: mods can do as they choose and if they act like a gaping a$$hole, they will do so. If the pm'er is a mod/cmod don't report as they can infringe charters and be hypocrites all the day long.
