That is a very nice thing to do for that new poster .

We can all do nice things like this....makes for a much friendlier Genes .

That can only bring new members to the boards.

Sue :-D

:-D

Gins I too think that is a really good idea as so much info and time can be lost when the post just disappears from the screen. the boards are so boring when no one uses them much. The more people who join in the better

Aww...thank you :-)

Never thought I'd say this to Gins - but "Well Done" !!

That's exactly the sort of constructive help I was referring to earlier.

Did the RR-er have the gumption to say what they'd done and why?

In future if you see a duplicate post either ignore it or report it do NOT post the link to the previous thread

Email from GR this morning


Dear jax

I got a warning from GR about mentioning problems on other sites

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/genealogy_chat/thread/1308625?page=0

Ignore a duplicate post :-S

The members cross ref to show the other thread so work is not duplicated. Going to end up with both threads getting reported

Now now Maureen, you can stop that 'common sense' nonsense!!!


:-D

Oh dear and there was me trying to encourage more people to post to make the boards more interesting

Well, I shall brazenly disregard GR's advice because it is more helpful to everyone to provide a cross-reference.

Just out of curiosity jax - had your post been reported or did this come out of the blue?

You naughty little rebel MC ;-)

Another example of GR losing the plot........

Gins,
Has that entire post, that you copied and pasted the information from, been deleted?

That post was reported yesterday evening MC but from going to bed at 6 am till getting up at 11 three more of mine were rr'd and removed....nothing wrong with them...no emails yet

Now another has been reported....oh well :-D

Patchem, looks like its gone. So either GR deleted it (which I suspect) or the OP did

I wish GR would 'read' the threads that are reported, rather than just hitting the delete button. There was nothing wrong with Edwards post except for his contact details

GR could have edited the post and removed his details without zapping it all together

............sigh

Thank-you.
Yes, I wish genes would read the reported posts as many are innocuous.

I reported a thread the other week because he put his phone number and email address but I asked GR to edit out those details rather than remove it

I had pm'd the poster straight away and he opened it but did'nt do anything so gave him 36 hours thats when I reported it....anyway they removed it.

I complained...and recieved this

Dear jax

Thank you for your email,

I can see the member has been advised to post the message again without this information.

Kind Regards,


Which is not quite right as I asked him to send a pm as it was an old thread

I dont think the staff have any idea to be honest

Ja..x

Youre so cynical ;-)

Thats right Gins :-)

Why do GR say this

We reserve the right to edit any post that breaches our terms & conditions or reveals any information we deem too personal.

But when you ask them to do it, they dont

Complete waste of time.....
