I agree - nothing wrong with being brought forward for a good reason. Abbess - I wouldn't dream of it........ but it's just nice to know they are still here! :-) Joy |

Lorraine - if you put in anything, be it a full stop or the word nudge it is not annomous. Nobody minds things being resurrected for a reason. |

Don't you dare, Joy! :-) It's bad enough having solid wadges of about 8 tips threads all being nudged together and crowding new requests off page 1. Moderation in all things. |

I cannot see what harm leaving a nudge with ANYthing on it does really, Have we yet decided what the capasity for 'number of replies on a thread' is before it spontaniously combusts......? LoL Jess x |

Must admit I was a bit surprised to see the Beaver Blower thread yesterday, but I think it was in response to something on the General Board - someone obviously went trawling for it and found the WRONG one! I didnt actually delete the original thread, just assumed that it had committed suicide by throwing itself off page 15! And I totally agree with Jess - there is a world of difference between reviving a thread which contains useful info, and one which is ASKING for look-ups. Perhaps if we all remember, when nudging old threads, to put something like 'Nudged for Tilly Bud - old thread.' Olde Crone |

I'm sure the 'Beaver Blower' thread was nudged because of a thread on the General Board. I'm sure it isn't all malicious Suex |

It is no longer the case that the threads and replies of ex members disappear when they leave. Gwynne |

A while ago, we had lots of threads being nudged that were anything up to 2yrs old People were spending time and money in credits before they realised the date on the thread |

Why nudge it and hide the evidence? You'd leave the word Nudge or a comment surely? |

I noticed Roy's thread reappear early this morning.... And no, it wasn't me...I have better things to do! I agree, Jo, if you nudge it for another member, please say so or we all end up getting paranoid again |

Surely if you nudge a thread because you think it would be of interest to others you leave your nudge on the thread. JoJo |

I think that still applies to threads they initiate, not replies on other peoples threads. prepared to be corrected, as i no doubt someone will. Jess x |
