    Inflatable Willy is sad. When he learned of the suspensions he flung himself on a sewing needle and deflated.

    They are suspended not banned. They purposely misbehaved to get the thread deleted. It is off topic against the rules and poor form to tsk tsk and wish out loud that *others* would follow the rules. Particularly if one appears to have a habit of showing up pn a thread with a group of folks they pretty clearly don't like and threadjack and bait them into a fight. Not the first one I've seen this week from the same person. Pretty habitual breaking of THAT rule there. I say this as regards to the group is the topic and I disagree with the rude disregards that were offered by a previous poster.

    Gosh thanks for the clarification between banned and suspended, although to be fair to the OP, "banned" means to prohibit, which is the case.

    You know nothing about the story behind this so please don't judge before you know all the facts.

    It wasn't hijacking of a thread belonging to a person that they didn't like. It was done to help another friend get a thread deleted that they regretted posting.

    So cheers to true friends who do something, knowing they will get in trouble for it, to help another friend. :drinker: :drinker:

    I think she was referring to the hijacking of this thread, not the one that caused the suspension.

    Now back to our regular scheduled :drinker: :drinker:

    OK...just pointing out they are suspended, not banned. It's a temporary dark time in MFP history...
    or is it....

    So I was unclear as a result of not wanting to break a rule by calling out the one rude poster here who habitually threadjacks with people she doesn't like.

    As I noted in my post they were friends helping each other out. That was why I posted as a friend to clarify to the threadjacker that they were suspended not banned and the reason it happened. Clearing their good name, as it were. So I'll accept your cheers to a people who step in and help out friends and I'll cheer you back.

    Well if that's case, I apologise to jetscreaminagain for misunderstanding her post. :flowerforyou:

    And once again, cheers to the suspended. :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

    Funny if we could delete our post in the first place none of this would have happened.

    Exactly

    Suggestion brought to MIke.

    As for this thread. I locked it, read it and moved it back.

    It is a shame really. We are volunteer Mods and are not on 24/7. You can PM me and sometimes I will see that faster if I am on. But I can tell you I was on that night, and there was no report in read for me to moderate. If you just write in a thread 'I want this deleted' then we will not see it.

    It is the report button that let's us know something needs attention.

    Carry on (within the rules please)

    Actually, the thread in question was reported a number of times by multiple people in an attempt to get it deleted before everything started. Just FYI.

    I am almost positive someone said they reported it. Perhaps a system failure.
