There are some very selective memories on here. I remember the sharp reprimand to someone who mistakenly opened a long-running thread, (and also a very kindly one later when another unsuspecting poster did likewise.)
There was an incident some months ago when Gransnet HQ had to intervene to stop a threat by long-standing posters on a particular thread to blackball and cold-shoulder members whose opinions were not acceptable to them. The inference was that these members had no right to read and/or comment on the posts on this particular thread, even though unpleasant and unsubstantiated accusations were being made about said members.
