I think Apple you have jumped the gun here. I have read the thread and BEVS comment was referring to a previous one about a heat pump, NOT to the topic of being homesick, and a sense of humour is a plus in life IMO.

I know it was about the heat pump. Taking the piss for not knowing something is NOT a sense of humour, maybe a little guidance AND humour would be ok

Sorry the thread has digressed.

Ditto but the other forum however does have a mod from here posting there also but not as a mod and probably never will be I hope as will others so what does that say to you as she complained about a post I made there already and caused a small prob.Banned here also now probably.
Jack saw the light and Sky also as well as some others ,BTW your www. forum addy is bad language here so it is ************. but we know where to go ,just hope a few certain others are not invited to join.If they are then that will be the end of a great alternative place to post.BTW Bev I did not patronise you just do what I pm`d you to do please .I still think as a mod /admin on a forum in the UK that it is not the admin who makes decisions its a majority .
Jealousy is a word that comes to mind or afraid of competition is another . to you to the competition.

All this talk of the other forums yet you feel the need to come back on this one and talk this type talk.
I for one love BE and have 'experienced' other sites. After being specifically invited, then was uninvited as I made a joke that was not liked. What kind of board bans for for making a joke???? Ha not one i want to be on that is for sure. I would rather stay here thank you very much.

I am posting here until I am removed as a poster as I asked a mod to do for me .I suspect this forum is in need of posters right now so until that day comes I will still put in my opinion good or bad .I just await the day I cant post here and will not worry that much as the other forum is more welcoming .

Sorry the thread has digressed.
I re-read it ad you have a valid point. Seems the OP was the first to respond to it in this way. Look mate, I think it can be a hard call at times: you should see some of the blantant abuse and deliberate winding up that goes on around this site, so in that context, while still a transgression, not one of the biggies I think but at same time not encouraging for new posters.

PS: threads always digress, don't worry 'bout that they usually get back on topic too

There is enough room on the internet for all of us, this has nothing to do with jealously but rather the underhand way they went about pm'ing as many people on this board as they could to join their site and then when they were discovered they re-registered numerous times to keep doing it. We wouldn't dream of doing such a thing and expect the same courtesy. That is the only time I am going to comment on this matter. So as per rule 7 of our site rules please do not bring up issues from other boards onto this site.
