Anyway why not take your continuing arguing back to your own site or don't you want all the hassle and grief there ? You prefer that to be a place to **help** people ?
Anyway they edit posts here so carrying on wasting your time if you wish silly girls

Chris why does it bother you what we say? and our posts have not been moderated cos they are fair.
You seem to have a real bee in your bonnet about women, are you single? wouldn't surprise me, how do you know we are girls, might be pensioners, we have every right to post our comments, as you do, so be quiet

Yes, British Expats is a moderated forum. But moderated with a very open mind and posts are only edited or deleted after a complaint has been issued and/or the vulgarity or subject matter is such that it violates even the most jaded among us and/or interudes on another's personal information and posters can be banned if they fail to behave in a manner befitting an adult.
The edit to this thread dealt with the editing of personal information at the request of the person involved. The post itself, in its entirety, remains for all to see and respond to.

Of course Rete you carry on. You are doing an excellent job. There must be 1000's of companies out there wanting to cough up dosh to display banner adverts on pages carrying their drivel.
As it happens it is pretty easy for anyone to work out the identity considering the same person posts pretty much the same on lord knows how many forums and makes no attempt to hide the name.
But who cares, they are only housewives with nothing better to do
Won't waste anymore of your time will let you get back to your important job of moderating as there must be lots of stuff needing it done. Hope they pay you well, (well) relative to the status of the job

Blimey all this bickering reminds me of why I hated expat life in Spain!
Rete doesn't get paid to moderate. She's mainly in the US Marriage based immigration sections and has her hands full with that.

why would I - or anyone else - want to hide their identity - if we have nothing to hide?
& what is wrong with posting on several sites on the same subject - particularly if you are looking for advice or information?
