    Their are some very strange people on this forum.
    I joined to get advice & help and where i can to offer the same.
    But, you will always get the oddballs, nutters & those who can't be bothered to Google their problem's here.
    That’s part of life and being in IT.

    To be honest as a relevant new comer to the forum I have found that nearly everyone that has offered advice or help to me have been sincere in doing so.
    Well that’s my view, is that the time!
    Blimey it's clocking off time & a few beers down the pub time.:biggrin

    UCM - I'd like you to clarify exactly what part of my post that I tried to ban or stop god from posting. I believe I stated clearly I was of no greater or lesser status than he.

    What I WAS doing was posting my opinion on a subject. Something you have done many times in the past.

    Other than that, I rest my case as of post #21.

    I would just like to clarify things a bit here. Gav did ask me if he could start this thread as he thought that the member concerned was not conforming to the normal CF forum policy.

    I have to say that the staff have discussed this member in great detail and PM's have been passed to and fro regarding certain issues.

    I hope that you all appreciate that the forum staff work extermely hard in their spare time to keep CF on the straight an narrow. Knowone is paid and I for one apploude the staff for their hard work.

    I agree I would like to thank the CF staff for the work they do, I realise it will be time consuming for them and I also would like to thank all staff who have been involved in this matter for their professionalism and ethics.

    To AJ and staff memebers of CF, the above comment was not written to have a pop at the staff of CF, just a tongue in cheek sense of humour stating an old english expression, such as god only know why it rains on the weekend or Bank Holidays. It was a double meaning refferring to the expression and refferring to the member GOD who has probably been contacted by the staff through PM and knows the score.


    Also Gav although you did not state the word Ban, you can not tell someone on an open forum to shut up. Yes, you have put your heart and soul into making a CF a better place, but you are no longer a staff member here and although I have always had repsect for the things you have done and said in the past I can not bring myself to agree with your post.

    If (this is to everyone on the forum) you don't like how someone is posting and it's doing your head in then put that member on the ignore list and you will never see their annoying threads or post again!! Otherwise it is soley down to the staff to decide if a member has broken the rules and should be banned.

    Or maybe you should make CF a private forum where everyone thinks the same and writes in perfect English.8)

    Cheeky,

    I think you're sort of over-reacting. What people are upset with "god" about is the utter nonsense in his posts. They are completely off-the-wall, and deliberately so. He's proven he can post at least somewhat reasonably, so the only explanation for his other posts was just that he thought he was being "cool" or funny. He wasn't. He was just being rude and obnoxious by ignoring all forms of etiquette and good behavior.

    I for one am humbly grateful for the unpaid time and effort that the mods take to keep this invaluable community resource alive. This place is one in a million. We should also realize that waters are never ALWAYS calm and when you take the number of members into account you must admit that things here are pretty good considering.

    Thanx guys :D

    I hadn't seen god's contributions, so, yes I was wondering what exactly Gav had been smoking....

    Ucheekmonkey,

    I've watched you complain about, leave and then crawl back to this and other forums numerous times in the past enough not to care about your opinion any more. You would have no reason to know this, but I have fought your side on CF whilst I was still Admin, when your actions were causing the Staff concerns, but right now that counts for nothing.

    I don't use the ignore facility, as I feel it is a relatively weak way to deal with issues. However, I shall neither respond to, nor care for your responses to this or any other threads from now one. Here or anywhere else.




    To the Forum in general,

    There is a relatively simple answer to those who seem intent on complaining that thinks aren't the same, or they don't agree with, etc, etc .. how things are being done these days on CF. No-one is making you come back, are they ?

    It's good to hear those few voices so far say how they appreciate what the Staff of this, or any other site do, but you know what ? You have NO IDEA what it takes to run this place. It's not just about dealing with crackpot posters, spammers and dumpers, etc. There are countless more issues, including defending CertForums against potential legal challenges, promoting the site, and managing the Premium Membership scheme in order to pay for the infrastructure that runs the site, and much much more.

    I'd like to thank the Staff for all of that :thumbleft

    Someone needs to get off their high horse and grow up a little. Aren't you a mod on another site? Why don't you go worry about that one for a while if you don't like how they do it here.

    Yeah, I went there:dry

    God.
    I was prepared to give you the benefit of the doubt.

    But, especially given your last post, can I just say:

    F**k off you nutter.

    Juice - I do hope that was a joke ?? :blink

    At no point have I picked on anyone's grammar, spelling or construction here - and I'm equally as annoyed to hear that someone saw "fit" to take a clearly cheap pop at UCM on those grounds. And there were more than enough typos and inaccuracies in my previous posts for anyone to take a shot if they saw fit !


    I know you enough to know that you didn't mean anything by the above .. don't I ?


    Yeah .... sure I do :)
