Island I had that !!! Great company isnt it

Prehaps its time to think of a break of company for those less sensative to the GENES REUNITED situation

I do hope the "person" doesnt watch Long Lost Family as they may find many of these offensive!

Get a grip the RR er and stop being so childish and accept the Adult banter for what iot is

Rich isnt it when a person can complain but cant press the OFF BUTTON!

Sylvia @ 05.27 - not so. I reported a post that was personally offensive in that it was directed at me and i found it very inappropriate, I told GR I found it offensive. 'They' informed me that it was 'healthy adult banter' and reinstated the post, giving the unpleasant individual the green light to continue harrassing me.

IMO RR's depend on who reviews them not whether the complainant says they are offended.

LOL Hayley...............I remember talking away to a very friendly person who had a "twin sister" in my early days on here she had an obsession with nuts for some reason or other.

I couldn't understand why others were mean to her...........I soon found out for myself though :-D ;-) ;-)

Sylvia its not like me not to pick up on undertones or a row or even sense that are people that dont get on but back in them early days on FB I didnt, even if I got whiff of it I would have to ask what and why and then join in and most of you would know that from the past :-D but I didnt feel it at all no wonder most of you found it strange. :-D

MR_MAGOO - I am deeply offended that some of your jokes are reported before I get the chance to read them.

I think the person that reports your jokes does so not because they are offended, but because, for some reason, they have a grudge against you, I say that because they seem to single you out.

Please feel free to include me on any PM you send

ah ................... dear old Sally from FB

she blocked me, and a couple of others, from reading any of her posts, then made nasty comments about us

It was rather funny how nice she was with you, Hayley, and so nasty with the rest of us!

MR_M


IF you say you find a post offensive or personally offensive ......... then GR seem to remove it, without any further discussion.

One must not offend the customers, or allow the customers to be offended :-D

This is just plain daft!

Mr M gets a warning.... you'll be banned for 7 days, because he tells jokes that make MOST of us laugh.

The RR'r, who had decided he/she is our censor .... carries on.

OY!! I'm an adult!! I don't need somebody deciding what I can and can't read!

What about the posters who have (at times) been downright nasty to others? Do they get a warning??

:-P

If someone reports Mr.Magoo's jokes (which we enjoy) WHY would she go into a thread of his again?

I do not need nannying at my time of life - laughter is the best mediciene - there used to be plenty of it years ago. We need all we can get.

As I said the most things I remember discussing was WDYTYA, it was the USA series and involved slavery ( am I allowed to say that) it was Janey who told me watch Kim Cattrill who is a British born Candian Janey told me to watch it and said " you'll love it" and she was on the money as I watched it on Youtube and loved it, I love the way Kim the big USA film/TV star just walked about the streets of Liverpool council estate knocking on her long lost reallies doors. It was a very interesting sad story.

Yes Hayley you have ..................... we all could not stand dear Sally

and you chatted away to her - like best buddies .......quite unaware of what she was

like ----- it was quite sweet seeing you two gossip lol all good fun

Janey all but redid her tree for her,, and corrected all her mistakes ...

we all then found Sally posting ..triumphantly ..... all over the internet ....

""That as a skilled researcher ... she has solved all her families mysteries and

secrets ""

no mention of Janey ...

as Jax said .......... someone else here abouts ,,,, reminds us of Sally ;-) ;-)
