It's true to say that HAL9000 annoyed Mockney so much that he has stepped down as a moderator. HAL9000 may not be aware of the effect that his "issues with moderators" comments have and I was just trying to ask that he doesn't do it to anyone else. HAL, here's one previous occasion where you've annoyed Mockney http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,363602,364899#msg-364899.


I want to make you aware of how you come across to me, for example I expressed my opinion earlier and you then come back with "I suggest your judgement may be clouded by..." and "you are seeing what you want to see rather than...", it just sounds so patronising and unnecessary. However next time we meet I would like to buy you a drink and resolve any differences.


Now can someone please put a happy tune on the decks and pour everyone a drink on the house.

Mark, you know that I have the greatest of respect for you and for the service you provide (for free, and out of sheer passion) for us.


However, I have to tell you that I am deeply saddened at how you seem to have felt the need to stoop so low as to dig up an old thread. Had anyone else done that I suspect that X would be receiving a barrage of PMs and public posts telling him/her that this was bad form.


God this is all so upsetting.

If we lose another moderator, and they are free to go if they please, the forum will close. Please don't make another one leave.

-------------------

If a moderator steps down could you not just appoint another one? To say the forum would close if that happens is just bluster because I would suggest this forum means more to you mark than any one of us judging by how you like to let us know the user figures etc, it's a bit harsh in my opinion to put that on one person when its blatantly not going to happen under any circumstance. I will volunteer to moderate if mockers steps down, there you go no harm done. I for one think that HAL is an assett to this space and has a lot to offer. I also think the same of mockers. So does Mockers need to be defended with old digs and snipes from Hal being being reposted, not really.


let there be love.


hugs


Easy.



But you were happy with this then Lady Muck...and with no evidence?


From my point of view Hal clearly has issues with the moderation the running of this site and I do genuinely believe MP which he hints at constantly and then takes the "Wot me guv" line. Meanwhile Mark has one less moderator.

I couldn't agree more iaineasy.


Hugs x

That last post by me wasn't a dig at mark, just an observation, I think he does a cracking job and to be honest I owe alot to this forum, I get alot of work from here, and could probably even go so far to say that perhaps its a good time to wipe this thread (since it was started about an idiot that keeps getting banned has been bad vibe all the way through) and get back to the very serious issue of not picking daffodils in peckham rye park.:))

I realise that iaineasy...don't worry. Mark does do a "cracking job".

????, I sincerely hope you are not referring to me here. If you are not then I apologise unreservedly - I feel a little emotionally drained over this "affair". However, if you are, then could I please refer you to something I posted earlier. It is self-explanatory:


I think the only mistake that Admin appear to have made here is to basically spoil the lot of us over the years! Most of us, in all probability, now take this Forum for granted - myself included.


When we attempt to log onto it, we expect it to be there, functioning without fault with all of its trimmings. If it slows down we complain, if a thread develops a malfunction we express further displeasure, and if a post disappears we throw the toys out of the pram (well I do!) and so on...However, we should in all fairness stop and remind ourselves that this Forum is not a right...we are not entitled to access it as of right, by law, or under some contractual arrangement...


...at the end of the day we should all remember that Admin could shut this forum down if he felt so inclined. And, to be honest, I wouldn't blame him given the hard time he is currently experiencing...


*ducks*

That's your answer to everything you don't agree with quids......'load of bollox'. It may be Mark's forum but the forum wouldn't exist if it weren't for the users either. I suppose you are bored now.

I'm certainly bored of your continued attention. Actually, my usual answer to things that I don't agree with is to argue against them. I've done that several times on here to not much response from those on a certain side of this argument. Go and look through my posts not that many 'load of bollox'.

Yes, lets all have a bit of a boogie - most people on here are fun IMO, purely for their variety of opinions, individual thoughts and subsequent debate.


I cannot tell the difference between those users who are regular posters and those who have a moderating job too. But as someone said earlier on this thread, some terrible things are happening out there in the world today so some perspective would not go amiss.


Meanwhile, we have a forum to enjoy....in lovely East Dulwich no less B) Now what's the next track....?

    • Is he local to South London? My father made his solicitor the executive. I, for many years had Lasting Power of Attorney to deal with all his finances including liaison with his bank and payment of his care home fees. I was also responsible for the sale of his home to release funds for care home fees. When he died, I notified the solicitor, obtained the death certificate and organized the funeral, cleared his care home of his possessions . Myself and my cousin were beneficiaries but my father had left a small sum of money to a man in the Midlands whose name was unknown to all of us including my step mother. It  took around 9 months for solicitor to establish that this gentleman had been deceased for a number of years . This obviously put additional charges onto the fees.
    • He's probably in his 70s, just doing a few more bits of work for his clients, many now deceased (ie executing their wills) who will be in their 90s. Everyone else who is younger than 90 will do their research and not use him,
    • I suppose we are lucky that our daughters both drive so do not have alcohol when they are with us.  I start my Christmas food shopping in October, when prices are generally lower. Turkey Crown from Iceland, gammon from Sainsbury's, get put into freezer as do any other bits and pieces i.e. prawns/seafood. Fruit and veg from Aldi nearer the time,. Having 3 vegetarians plus a gluten intolerant, I make much of the other food stuff including desserts. Aldi's version of Baileys is half the price, plus beers and ciders are good value. Neither of us are wine drinkers We generally have fish or vegetarian based food from Marks plus a dessert, I suppose I have always been a careful shopper - I was a single parent for many years where all my wages went to paying the mortgage leaving around £10 a week for food and other bills. My work colleagues used to mock me when I said that a chicken would last us all the week ending up boiling up bones to make a soup base. Old habits die hard even when you have a bit more in your pocket to spend.
