A weekly seance? :-S

Brackets! :-D


..as it stands...

'thank you I have found and met a cousin on my Mother's side who died when I was a young boy and we now are in contact every week'.

Would anyone care to re-write this uncertain comment?

Graham!!! :-D :-D :-D :-D

:-D :-D :-D

I would be really happy with a hot match
I don't seam to have had one for ages and ages :-( :-(

we used to get them regular as clock work

Good research there, Rose. ;-)

I took him at his word when he said he only had one account.

It used to be against GR rules and they banned people for having more than one account, didn't they?

There's one result using G008 lol...that's when G007 used the board name "sense" lol,

I use google for adv search anyway, quicker!

Phil did sort the GEDCOM problem for me last week.


Re the quicksearch, I searched "1st" and got results, "G006" and got a no result answer, but "G007" gives an error.

Do you think
they are deserting a sinking ship ??? :-( :-(

since Phil moved
everything just never seams to get sorted :-( :-(

I don't think the quicksearch works with alphanumeric mix? and advanced search just doesn't work at all these days lol

Yes but the search should show any posts that mention that alphanumeric string not give an error.

His account as G007 has gone his other account is still there.

It's strange. If I do a Quicksearch for G007, I get an error message. I do get results for GHeather though.

GR sent out an email ....advertising a 1 month for £1 on FMP :-S

Now if it were to encourage me to use the records via GR, than a similar offer would have made sense. Why suggest I use a 'competitor' if they weren't trying to move people over?

Rollo - I couldn't agree more.

I don't think GH intended to troll or even to wind people up. His highly idiosyncratic way of looking at life meant he did not have to try at all.

DC Thomson should let this site go and book the tax loss as they are clearly no longer interested in it. The running costs ( excluding records ) are very low. There is ( or was ) more than enough tech expertise among members to keep the ship afloat once records have been hived off.

He was on here making a fuss, as Gwynne says, flouncing around, and carping on about freedom of speech (ironic as he put forward an idea where you could block people from 'your' thread).
I expect he's gone voluntarily.
Probably to return nearer the election .........

Hmm. Has G007 really been sent packing (banned) or has he said he would leave probably to return under yet another name)?

If they were doing that, Dermot, they would have removed them earlier.
There are idiosyncrasies and there is trolling....

Trolling, verb:

1. To make a deliberately offensive or provocative online posting with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them:

2. Being annoying on the internet, just because you can.
