It's all gone, it's all gone

Do you swear to leave the thread, the whole thread and nothing but the thread, so help you God.

I do but my alter ego said no.

Sigh, HTH.

[TraceyHand]

I'm not swearing anything
If you all starting bitching at me..I might just flounce and delete ALL my threads


YOU WISH

[RuralWeb]

YES - thank you to Kultya for deleting the thread we have all contributed to for most of the day. It would have been nice to leave it on the forum (which is the normal practice Mr K) even if it was just to show people how to ignore advice.

Oh so BRUTAL of you Mr K

[leehack]

It may have been his evil twin Mal, you never know.

[Jan]

So, who is the best community flouncer ... we should have some awards perhaps ...

(4341 comments left to delete ... I may be some time)

Regards,

[Jan]

Actually I've just looked at the thread and there was some useful stuff in there (I'm a sort of moderator on here - my only moderating job though is to delete the obvious spam that appears over the weekend).

It's seems a shame for the good advice that was given to be removed, is there a way of bringing back the good stuff but getting rid of the rubbish?

Regards,

That Indian guy recently was the most memorable, start a thread, get it answered, delete it. Repeat process 30 times and then disappear.

That Indian guy recently was the most memorable

Oh yeh he was very strange - is it something to do with India as Mr K was getting his stuff from India.

I never quite get it to be honest, it may be so they do not leave a trail and clients won't be able to see that they had little idea on what they were doing. That's the only thing i can come up with. He deleted some really helpful threads too, i remember Duncan showing the patience of a saint in one of them, only for it to disappear forever.

[Paul Bulpit]

Was that the 'Site Review - Be Brutal' thread? Sorry, missed it!

[TraceyHand]

Paul..shame on you!
You missed a whole day's drama wrapped up in one neat little package!

Alas, lost forever

[Kultya]

get over yourself guys, the post was clearly irritating lots of people including me, innocent things were being taken completely the wrong way so i dumped it, problem solved and of course having a pile of nonsense and petty bickering associated with a business for all to see on the net ain't too clever, but then ya go and start it up again.

how very constructive of you

again, thanks to those that gave helpful advice, obviously i still have the emails!

[RuralWeb]

is there a way of bringing back the good stuff but getting rid of the rubbish?

Just bin it jan - all the points raised are already in the forum. Maybe if you we been more "brutal" Mr K would have liked our comments more.

[RuralWeb]

In answer to jans question about how to get back the best bits of the brutal thread we could all post our "best bits". Mine would be:

I have to agree with Malc (yes, really LOL)

you asked us to be brutal and critical and nobody was either of those things. We came back with simple but effective ways to improve it, I even spent some considerable time detailing how...and for what?

I don't usually reply to "site review" posts..and now I remember why
