Time to move this discussion to the Lounge area

Please stay on topic and address the issue not the person.

I tried. This thread's now locked.

This thread has been reported for the correct reason it seems to be drifting into the personal, rude and bizarre. I am going to move it to the Lounge area but if it continues to spiral downwards or there are any more reports it will be locked.

SteveT If you read the head post in the Residential section it reads "This section is purely a listing of properties, if you want to discuss or get advice on local properties please use an alternative relevant section." If you have an issue with that please contact me directly and do not take a thread off topic. Rude man.

It is because the lesser than operand and the greater than operand [pre][/pre] are used in code that can be used to post malicious scripts e.g. [pre][/pre] so we have implemented a security feature that does not allow malicious code. I hope that explains it.

I agree that an ignore button would be useful unfortunately it is not available on this forum. Please do report nuisances by clicking the "report this message" link underneath the message, we cannot read all messages so this brings then naughty ones to our attention and we greatly appreciate it.

This thread is not East Dulwich specific so I have moved it to the Lounge

Please stay on topic

It is because your service provider has been blocking East Dulwich Forum emails and we believe they have now decided to let them through. All at once.

It is because they have nothing to do with East Dulwich. Someone from Spain advertising their villa has nothing to do with East Dulwich so sometimes we delete them sometimes they go in the Lounge.

Moving this to the Lounge now.

Hmmm, we are not sure about that one, we have logged in and are seeing correct numbers but we will keep an eye on it. You can look at the home page http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/ and click on "reset new posts" and that will set it back to 0, not a perrfect answer but it may help. Thanks for letting us know and sorry for any inconvenience.

That last bump by Miles made it Lounge worthy. Lounged.

OK, sorry about this but as previously mentioned can someone start a new thread called Football Focus (cont...) or similar and I am going to lock this. We think that the amount of posts is confusing the system and making things go a bit wrong. Here's the new one, called On the Ball

Oh, a few to answer here: microbite People just add their own bit of text at the bottom of their message Rhinestone Cowboy The weird stuff on the Football focus thread is on going and we're keeping an eye on it. Thanks for letting me know. KalamityKel Unfortunately we can not show a snippet of what the PM shows, partly because we want to keep them private and reduce the risk of someone other than the person logged seeing what the message says. And partly because it is technically hard to do. Keef Sorry, I do not think a singles section would be beneficial to a large amount of people and would also confuse others. Similarly a couple's section or a games section or a weird section would just be to remove a few subjectively "annoying" threads out of the Lounge.

I was referring to the new which informs you when message is new, I was merely empowering it and encouraging it to work, it is a technical term. It appears that new posts do make Football Focus appear at the top of the list but please do report it should it break.

Morning football fans There seems to be an issue where this thread is not moving to the top of the list when a new message is put on it. I have no idea why it is happening however an educated guess would be that the number of posts in this one thread (almost 5,000) is causing a strain on the system. So what I may do after I have monitored it for another day or so but not yet is lock this thread and ask someone to start a new Football Focus thread. This will mean that that Football focus will once again move to the top of the Lounge list when it is updated. Sorry for the potential inconvenience and c'mon the Mighty Reds.

I have moved this to the Lounge as it is not East Dulwich specific (I think)
