Ann, Exactly what I feel.I don't know what it is all about,I have only recently started to read general topics,there is no need for all the bad mouthing that seems to have been going on.I have felt very annoyed that all posting had to be stopped,I resent having to pay for nothing.I do feel that GR.should monitor the post more diligently,perhaps they will now.The animosity should be forgotten. Margaret.

Well said Ann ! Those of you who know me will be aware that I enjoy a good healthy debate and there's nothing wrong with that at all if people are prepared to accept the views of others without trading personal insults. Let's get back to normal and enjoy!!

Ann - I totally agree. I am one of the ones for whom the boards are a lifeline but I don't want to become embroiled in slanging matches. I received an email today from GR giving a website address for GR message board users but can't access it. Has anyone else had one? J

Now cool it. Points have been made, people have been barred or voluntarily left the site. can we think about other people who enjoy this site, who have nothing to do with any internal quarrels. I am speaking to everyone here. The ones who started the aggravation and the ones who continued it. taking it that we are all adults and all have some compassion, can we realise that there are people for whom this site is a life line, people who do not want to move to another site because they are comfortable here. Can we please think of them. If anything else happens and GR admin have more problems theyw ill happily shut it down again and they will not suffer, this is such a large concern that nothing anyone here can do will hurt the management, the only people to suffer are the ones who rely on the boards for daily contact with people. i am therefore sticking my neck out here to ask for your compassion and help not to antagonise each other or the management.
