Absolutely, 'patronising' is to British English what 'patronizing' is to American. It's always a good practice to know what you talking before jumping to conclusions.

Guys,

I got the same mail. This is the third email to me stating basically the same thing - they said they wanted more time. Funny thing is, in the previous delay email, they used my reference number and my skill, this time they didn't!.

People ! I think there is another system crash at VIC !! They have again lost our data ! God help us!..

Can you not make such ridiculous, inflamatory statements. Perhaps if you stop asking, they will stop sending you the same email.

How do *** YOU *** know anything about it ?..Do you work for Skills Victoria !??

If you don't have anything useful for us to share, then I suggest you stay out of this conversation. You can't just interrupt ANY conversation just because you are the moderator !

Err, actually I can, regardless of whether I'm a mod or not, it's a public discussion board.. I do know about it, I've been on these boards for 6 years plus and know that this is a generic letter that they send out.

Deal with it.

Moneypenny !

Read my post !. I didn't send them any mail inquiring the status of my application!

Like I said, I don't see in anyway you can contribute to this discussion, so just do your job, moderate! don't interrupt!

You mean that you've not contacted them, they've just continued to send you emails randomly asking YOU for more time?

If you don't like me posting on any thread, please be advised of rule 15. Discussions about moderator or administrator actions are welcome in email or local private messages, but should not be discussed in public forums. This is out of respect for the members, moderators and policy involved.

I suggest you take up your complaint with Admin.

Yes !!

Thats been happening to all of us ! I never sent them any emails ! They just keep on sending us those delay emails by themselves.

And I don't have anything against you in particular, but I have been to another forum lately and the moderators there don't just jump in **EVERY** discussion.

And Moneypenny, I am not a new poster, Its been almost 3 years since joined and I have helped many newcomers. So, when I say, the moderators interrupt too much, trust me, I speak on the behalf of many posters who feel the same way.

take a vote if you don't trust me..

Well you have the answer to your 'problem' then.... stick with the other forum and stop posting here. Simple.

Wow !

That was polite !!

Thank you Sir!.

I am sure all the posters reading this will decide this for me.

Rest assured, I won't run away, the administrator has to throw me out for being guilty of speaking the truth.

Cheers!

You know what I think... I think this user.. "that guy from anus" is a fake ID made just to do the dirty work for the moderators !. Every time the moderators get in a tight spot, they call him (or use that ID) to attack and insult users. Can't do that when you are moderator can you ?.Just using that obscene ID shouldn't be allowed.

I have seen the same pattern in past too.

Moderators - Throw me out ! ban me, do it now !. But I will say this...If you don't respect the posters, soon everybody will go to the OTHER forum. And this BE, will be labeled as forum where non-British posters have no respect!

I am being polite here and I am deliberately avoiding that * R* word here !

This is not the BE I used to know when I initially joined it. I am losing my interest in posting or reading threads. The OTHER forum is DEFINITELY better, infact, much better. Sorry mods and admins, but I just used my right of "Freedom of Speech".

WTF are you pair on about? You both say the other forum is 'better' yet if I suggest that you just post there, then I'm being rude. How does that work then? It's a simple suggestion not an attack or insult.

Obscene ID. I am the creature from Uranus.. see, plain English. IELTS refreshers needed all round perhaps?

As for me doing the work of the Mods.... they will find that suggestion bloody hilarious.

You know what I think? I think you're barking. I, nor any other Mod get in 'tight spots' or do we call for back up. Why is Creature's username obscene? Do you not know the English names of the planets?

Why would we ban you? Have you abused anyone? Have you trolled? Have you given totally misleading information? No. Until you do any of those things you won't be banned. All we ask is that you follow the rules of BE, nothing more, nothing less.

Must be a touch naive, struggling to work out what the 'R' word is, but no worries, you don't need to tell me.

Be has no issues with anyone being members of other forums, we do however expect common internet courtesy in not either discrediting or advertising other forums on our boards. Other forums expect the same behaviour.
