Dear Admin,


are you, like, the Fat Controller ? Ha Ha. Or Big Brother ? Or the Jade Emperor of the Seventh Heaven ?


Seriously :


a) When I went - finally - to respond to a thread I had started I was not shown the user-names of contributors. Are these deleted at a certain point ?


b) Why do the headers of certain but not all threads say 'Go to page yada-yada-whatever ?'


c) I notice my real name was left off my profile - by me, I guess. Is there any point adding it on. I want to use my nom de balloon for postings.


Thanks,


- Lee Scoresby

a) No. No messages are deleted unless they have been removed because they have broken the rules. Tell me which message you are talking about and I will look into it.


b) If there are more than 30 messages on a page then a new page is created, rather like pages in a book. So instead of having a really, really long page you flip between pages.


c) Adding your real name is up to you, there's no actual benefit such as getting a free ice cream but you decide if you want people to know your real name.


regards

Sorry for the delay. You can reply to your own thread to move it up but please make the post contain more information. Once a day is too much, you will be better off doing it every three or four days but please do not take the mickey.

    • Thank you, Pugwash. That's really useful information. Do you know who was responsible for the locks and keys, or which council department? Could you PM me if you don't want to put someone's personal details on here?  It may save me having to speak to Monica. Thanks.
    • Does anybody know why? Trees aren't cut down for no reason. There must have been something wrong with it (I hope that was the reason). A child was recently killed and another one injured when a tree fell in a park (not in this area). It isn't always obvious from the outside when a tree is diseased or whatever, and I imagine the council would give safety considerations priority when deciding what to do, if there was any doubt at all.
    • It looks like they have cut it down completely now 😭
    • Different people will be  involved within Thames Water. The people dealing with the leaks aren't the people encouraging less water usage. How many people have reported the Barry Road leak? By what channels? What response have they had? When we had a leak in our road which meant we had no water, several people reported it, there was good communication with TW, they explained why they couldn't come out immediately (other urgent jobs elsewhere in the area) , kept  in touch with us and fixed the leak within a reasonable timescale (hours). Someone from TW also contacted me later to make sure my water was back. But does Thames Water know about it? They aren't psychic (I presume). If nobody reports it, I also presume they won't even know the leaks are  there, unless they have some kind of central monitoring system which tells them when there are leaks in the system. To make it clear, I am not defending Thames Water as a company, which I think should never have been privatised.  But there are some things they can't be blamed for (old and disintegrating water pipe system in London) and some they can (possibly, lack of sufficient staff to deal with leaks, maybe due to trying to save money to give their shareholders more. But this is just surmise on my part - I know nothing about Thames Water).
