No disrespect to any one,any sex any poster.
Let some light in this thread.
It continues to interest us.
And to prove it look at the length.
But trust is involved here,once a post is deleted some,who never saw it,seem to think it should not have been.
We have rules to live by, what would the world look like if we let some not follow them.
What would OLO look like without moderation.
How hard is it, an old lefty/union ploy,[of the past] be to get banned so you could then complain?
Now we are unable to talk about deletions, so be it, but if some deleted posts, reappeared here, you can just bet those who complain the most, would scream about them, not being deleted.
Up the thread reports of rudeness and insulting name calling in the refugee site,still have not looked, and one poster in particular insulting another are given.
Be fair dinkum, do not let Political Correctness bluff you, rude is rude no matter what sex, men and women too should not be rude just because they can.
Bad manners are not a strength, women too should be aware of this.

aren't we supposed to remain anonymous here? thanks to certain links posted on this thread, it has exposed personal information of quite a few members as many of them are linked so i found. woo hoo to remaining anonymousity--not!

anonymous for what reason? are we under threat here? if so, by whom?

jinny there is no requirement to remain anonymous. Some posters post under real names and make a point of clearly identifying themselves.

Others post under an alias because we'd prefer to keep impacts of views expressed here from intruding into real life (either our own or people associated with us).

Once posted we have no control over the material, if your are identified in a post there is nothing to stop a future employer seeing it and deciding that the other candidate with similar skill might be one they prefer. If you are using real world examples from your own life to illustrate a point others involved may not be happy to have the story posted.

There have been times where it's been obvious that some posters would if possible try and do real world harm to others based on views expressed here. I don't want friends, family or employers harassed over views I've expressed here nor do I ever want someone turning up at my home to sort out an issue.

We don't have to be anonymous but I think it makes good sense.

Thanks R0bert, oh yeah, now I remember why? Silly my.. I've got issues ;p haha TGIF! Enjoy ur weekend! Thx for the explanation, appreciated.

The OLO Aviatrix

Like moths around a candle flame
We see some posters fly
And when they burn their pretty wings
We hear them asking - Why?

It is because like Icarus,
who flew too near the sun,
They get some whacks
with feathers brung,
and work them all together:
thinking that such flying gear
will stick to them forever.

Little do they know
it seems
that attitude at altitude
can loosen every feather,
and losing lift at flying speed
just isn't very clever!

Once in the stall it is too late
the feathers start to flutter.
With only just a word or two
her speech is in the gutter.
Descention speeds, and soon she'll need
a very good spin-doctor.

Training kicks in and the vixen
gives it stick and rudder.
Then throttle gets attention.
Before you know she's flying clean
She's got herself...
suspension!

<< I for one want to lodge a protest. From what I remember of the deleted post there was nothing untoward. It certainly didn't constitute flaming, did it?
Surely my last post was no less, facetiously, offensive?
We are getting thin-skinned.. >>

Interesting Squeers.

Forrest, beautifully put.

Pity about that suspension.
Many good comments were posted
By Lilith, without apprehension.
But she ended up being roasted,
Stuck for two weeks in detention.

A new poster full of beans,
Very concerned about the rules,
Unlike many who don’t seem to care.
Then she found herself grouped with fools;
Those who cop suspensions and bans,
Those who have no regard for the rules.
