Correct, there is injustice here...
Ahhhhhhhhhh, but can any of you beat this???????????
I had a couple of posts removed because they were classified as OT (I presume OT means Off Topic), the offending posts were about Sir Cliff Richard, as if Sir Cliff can be called offensive.
The irony of it all was that Sir Cliff entered into the topic courtesy of…………….a moderator, and all I did was add my dimension to it.
When I complained about the irony and injustice of it all I was informed by a moderator that someone else had removed the post as they did not like Sir Cliff…………amazing!
To cap it even further my avatar was a picture of the great man himself and there were even complaints about that, hence the change in persona to a more miserable individual with a miserable avatar.
I bet this post will upset a few people as well…………

Some people support his view , in fact some people who've been around a long time and offered some tremendous advice to a lot of people here (I dont mean me I might add).
Ie.. this thread: http://britishexpats.com/forum/showt...04#post3004704
Other people pile in and have a go at him. Then start swearing at him and calling him rude names beginning with P.... , a collective gang indeed reminiscent of events in Lord of the Flies is formed and they turn upon the guy.
And HE gets banned for abuse.
How does that work then?

It would seem on here if you upset a select few you get banned! Then anyone who sticks up for the banned person or joins not long after they get banned then are accused of being the banned person.
I've seen 2 users get banned, didn't swear at anyone or call names, only thing they did wrong really was wind people up, but it's hardly a crime and opened up various debates and when you looked close enough they actually had a point! Very bizarre!!! But such is the internet....
God i hope I don't get banned for this :scared:

Anyway, this threas is really old now so I'm closing it. Especially because it's gone so far off topic, they might have to send Captain Kirk out to boldy go and find it.
