I know that we are not supposed to ask but I have noticed that Charleygirl doesn't seem to have been around for a while.

Has anyone one heard from her?

So pleased to see Charleygirl will be up and running soon.

TillyTrotter Tue 11-Jan-22 07:59:32

Ask HQ BlueBelle.
We have had many threads on T’s+C’s of GNHQ rules and we just go round in circles.

BlueBelle Tue 11-Jan-22 07:55:18

Ask HQ Josieanne doesn’t make sense to us either lots if their rules and regulations don’t make sense Why are some posters banned for life when they ve don’t seem to have done anything much wrong ?

Josieann Tue 11-Jan-22 07:52:26

But I'm pleased Charleygirl will soon be back.

Josieann Tue 11-Jan-22 07:51:44

Sorry, but why have posters been told off when mentioning a name in a concerned manner is far less innocuous and secretive than all those hidden references by some referring to posters who "castigated" and "reprimanded" them last week, last month, etc? Those comments are allowed to stand when readers probably know full well who is meant anyway. So why not the genuinely worried ones about a particular poster like Kitty's?
What I'm asking, rather messily, is .... is it the actual name that is the problem?

Why are we not supposed to ask?

GNHQ don't approve of us asking. It could be seen as compromising a poster's privacy.
We have been told off in the past.

Oh, that is good news Tanith. Thanks for letting us know our dear friend is ok. Poor Charley will be spitting feathers until her computer problems are sorted out.

tanith Mon 10-Jan-22 22:40:12

One of the reasons I stick with BT as I very very rarely have any problems with my connection. She’ll be up and running again soon I’m sure.

Calistemon Mon 10-Jan-22 22:18:32

Thank you Tanith, relief, annoying for Charleygirl but thank goodness she's ok.

Chewbacca Mon 10-Jan-22 21:57:01

Such good news! smile

Buddying up is very good advice. Doesn't need to be intrusive but it's good to know that your pals notice if you're not around.

Urmstongran Mon 10-Jan-22 20:47:50

That’s how I managed to get in touch with EV before Christmas Maw. ‘Buddy up’ is good advice.

Marydoll Mon 10-Jan-22 20:41:59

Thank you Tanith. Another poster advised me that you would probably be able to find out. So relieved!

MayBeMaw Mon 10-Jan-22 20:36:18

Huge relief Tanith ???
Maybe a lesson to us to let even just one other member have an alternative contact for us- mobile number or landline or even that of a neighbour/family member?

TillyTrotter Mon 10-Jan-22 20:27:28

Oh that is the best news tanith Thank You.
Though not the best news for Charleygirl.
Please send her my fondest wishes.

kittylester Mon 10-Jan-22 20:25:12

Thank you so much. Tanith. Bet she's cross.

Susan56 Mon 10-Jan-22 20:24:33

Thank you for the update tanith?

Chewbacca Mon 10-Jan-22 20:08:55

And another concerned pal here too.

tanith Mon 10-Jan-22 20:08:50

Hi everyone I’ve just spoken to (Charleygirl) and she’s just fine she is offline due to router problems hopes to be up and running again very soon. Frustrated to put it mildly ?‍♀️??‍♀️

cornergran Mon 10-Jan-22 20:01:55

Another concerned soul without an explanation here.

Urmstongran Mon 10-Jan-22 19:52:00

She was in soops fairly recently I think. If it’s IT gremlins hopefully she’ll be back soon.
?

Calistemon Mon 10-Jan-22 19:47:35

I hope she's ok and had noticed she had been missing.
Let's hope it's just IT problems (frustrating as they can be)

Josieann Mon 10-Jan-22 19:32:04

I hope Charleygirl is ok.
She used to join us on the Strictly thread towards the end of last year.

TillyTrotter Mon 10-Jan-22 19:19:09

No kitty . I am concerned too.

Marydoll Mon 10-Jan-22 19:17:47

A few of us have been asking and trying to contact her.

Another poster told me she thought Charleygirl may be having IT problems. I don't want to say anymore, but we may know more tomorrow.
