I'm sorry that I've suspeneded two posters today, but it's the same old problem of them trolling about presenters/shows they don't listen to, and in the past that problem has caused very good posters to leave and not return.

I'll be letting Colby back soon but not Scott/Blighty.

Feedback appreciated as I feel bad making these decisions alone.

If ever things get real busy on here again I'll look for a partner mod Smile

I'm only surprised that it took 50 posts by Blighty before his mask slipped again and he was recognised. In the meantime he gains the innocently placed trust of the forum regulars.

I've dropped in here tonight for the first time in ages and I had Blighty sussed within 3 posts on The Welcome Mat. Maybe the job of mod is for me.............. Very Happy

I presume Colby was suspended for being a know-all? Laughing

He does seem to have all the answers...

I had Blighty/Scott sussed early on too, and many forum regulars will have also, but they are always keen to engage with Scott and I so no harm in the early discussions.

In another guise he was posting similarly on the Digital Spy site too until arguments started. Once he started his axe campaigns here again I decided to nip it, not in the bud, but as the flower was opening Very Happy

Colby is activated again. We exchanged e-mails but I'm not sure if he's coming back.

Anyone who joins, then posts 31 messages in one day, quite a lot of which refer to things we talked about on here ages ago, is almost certainly, up to no good.

Don't feel bad John. Bring out the Fuzzy Felt. Smile

I guessed almost from the start by the huge list of shows he 'listened' to as well.

John, don't feel bad, you have our full support. 99% of posters are decent folk, but just as in "real life" you're always going to get the odd "unhelpful" contributor, as the Queen Mum would have put it!

The problem, as ever, is that Scott can be quite a good contributor. Certainly lively. It's just that he overdoes it.

Thanks folks.

Fuzzy Felt? Think I missed out there, and more alarmingly my kids did too! Laughing

Now, to figure out who Bic Basher is Rolling Eyes

I wonder if Ernie ever thinks about returning-I miss his dry wit.

Yes, good to see you back Colby. I too miss ernie, as he was my favourite conservative on here! Laughing

I wonder if he still reads this site?

He's not marked down as a 'Guest' in this thread http://r2ok.s4.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?t=1303 which I think he would be if he was completely deleted from this forum, so I think he could come back if he wanted to.

I don't think John ever deleted or suspended his membership (there was no reason to), so it's still open and he can post as and when he chooses. And, of course, there's nothing to stop him browsing without logging in. I bet he does......! Cool

Yes Ernie was a good guy-I really liked him although we occasionally clashed re the subject matter of Richard Allinson.

I sincerely hope though he reappears on here one day-this board would be a better place for his active involvement.

Come on Ernie-rejoin our family.

yes, I miss Ernie's humour too Sad

and of course, he was another serious Steve Wright fan.. Razz
