There is a section on the forum for contacting the admin in here:

http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/list.php?12

Why did you post in 'General ED issues / gossip' ? In what way does this impact everyone, and therefore warrant this section?

  • Administrator

I am responsible.


You asked in one message i.e. once, if it's ok to rehome pets on the forum. Can you explain how this is "asking everywhere"? (Ok you did ask in the ED issues section so this was moved the About the Forum section)


Then you posted a message offering something in the East Dulwich issues section. Can you explain why rehoming your kittens is an East Dulwich issue?


Obviously your message was moved to the Offered section and you have posted a message in the East Dulwich issues section claiming "all your posts have been deleted?!" . Can you explain what "all your posts" were and why you are using the wrong sections of the forum? You have used the other section before so you know they exist.

Wow. Just going to say thanks and leave it there. Thank you for being so friendly and helpful, mr. admin.

PS. PERHAPS NOTIFY PEOPLE WHEN YOU MOVE THEIR POSTS AND NOT QUESTION THEM WHEN THEY'RE ANNOYED ABOUT IT. Again, THANKS.

  • Administrator

What with 600+ posts a day I ain't got time to notify every person who posts a message in the wrong section and I move it and then they expects me to tell them about it. You gets what you pay for.


By the way, I'm not a great fan of capitals.

Or you can check yourself.


You might have noticed that on each post, the name of the poster (including your own) is a link. That takes you to a small page for your username, where there is another link - in your case, "View all posts by Ronnijade". There you can see all your posts in reverse chronological order and which section they are in.


It's much faster than writing snottygrams to admin.


Mind you, I would have thought this thread itself should have been lounged by now. :))

Well I don't care because your mother's a hamster and your father smells of elderberries.


Whilst this is a correct quote from The Holy Grail it is worth noting that the insulting Frenchman's English idiom is in error, it is elderflowers that are scented - elderberry wine does have a scent, but only after fermentation. - I'll get my coat...


Edited to add - but of course 'elderberries' is a funnier word

Despite efforts to keep this light hearted Ronnijade has actually threatened me on a PM, aka sent a malicious communication.


Ronnijade, just to be clear, the mother bit is a reference to a comedy sketch by Monty Python https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAy4zULKFDUy I do not mean that about your mother, I don't know her but I'm sure she's lovely. And you don't know mine but she is lovely and not what you stated she is.

If he/she took that to court it would possibly be the funniest court case ever.

    • Ocado stopped sourcing from Waitrose a few years ago. They now source from M&S and general brands. Waitrose have their own delivery service now. I don't know how well served SE22 is by it. Ocado offers for new customers are, or certainly were, really good, particularly in the run up to Christmas. I think I got 20%/15%/10% up to a maximum of £100 spend off my first three deliveries with no delivery charge or commitment to sign up for further deliveries. There wasn't a time limit, IIRC, so it was a great way of restocking heavy store cupboard basics and stuff for the freezer.
    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?
