Lounged

It's getting annoying for the other users of this forum when people go wildly off topic and chat to others within a thread. You have the Lounge for chatting. I do not want to move serious threads to the Lounge so posts will be removed that are blatantly off topic. Please respect other users of the forum, both those that post and those that don't. Apologies for the stark warning on a lovely Friday but I'm trying to keep a tidy house for everyone (well, as many people as possible).

Please stay on topic

Lounged as it's now a discussion about car use and the original post was on March 23

Actually it was only two posts (the second one was Mockneys talking about Godwin's law). We tend to get a few complaints when people liken things to the Nazis and rightly so. So for the record the offending post by AllforNun (that people complained about and so was removed) said the following, which I believe in this context does not have the offensive clout as it did before: "Actually the Nazis were a large, almost country size group of people, who became so entrenched in their beliefs that their way was the right way, and everyone else was of a lesser class it led to .... Of course when the bubble burst, they were left, by dint of history, looking pretty evil. Lets hope one day, standing in Lordship Lane, organic plastic wellies on your feet, British latecinno' in one hand petition in the other you do not hear the sounds of the distance wall that you have built up around yourself come crashing down. Only history and time will tell." The forum is a place that is informative (and fun), if people get offended by something we act on it if necessary. There's about 400-500 posts a day and we don't know which ones offend people so we have to rely on people reporting them to us. We usually leave a "post removed" notice and we don't like spoiling the flow of a thread so we have to make a judgement call every now and then. It's not easy and perhaps sometimes we get it wrong, we don't censor things but we are ruled by common sense so please bear with us sometimes as that's not always agreeable to everyone. I hope that makes sense. Now, back to "Syringe Exchange/Methadone Services: Crystal Palace Rd ? Petition" if you please

The offending posts were removed due to complaints.

Moved to the Lounge as it's not East Dulwich specific

Lounged and locked as there's another thread about this

I have just had to ban one user (someone at a local estate agent) for posting in the Residential section even after I sent them a warning not to. It was in fact the second warning to that particular company in 24hrs.

And at this point I move you all over to the Lounge to carry one your conversation it's no longer an East Dulwich issue. There are some rather nice nibbles in there for any of you that are a bit peckish. Lounged

A reminder that the topic is "New delicatessen in Nunhead"

I will not be invoking Godwin's Law, but please no more mentioning of Nazis. Please stay on topic.

I have made this thread an announcement

Please stay on topic "Syringe Exchange/Methadone Services: Crystal Palace Rd ? Petition"

Stay on topic please

AllforNun - please stop the personal attacks.

There's already a thread about Foxtons. Moving this one to the About the Forum section. The property section is just about property, it's not for gossip and issues.

see this thread Syringe Exchange/Methadone Services: Crystal Palace Rd ? Petition This thread is now locked

It's not possible I'm afraid but I will endeavour to lock new threads about Foxtons and point people to the original ones.
