GN have very kindly reinstated me , but I can’t let it go without giving everyone a huge thank you for your kind remarks and support - felt a tad overwhelmed tbh 😳. I would like to think that your support persuaded GN.

I would also like to extend a hand of friendship to those who felt my presence on GN is less than welcome. Of course we are always going to disagree, but to coin a phrase perhaps we can do so much more agreeably.

Well thank you all once again

Whitewave.

Good news you were reinstated so quickly, WWM2.

I would like to think that your support persuaded GN. I've noted those posters' names for if/when I get excluded again! 😆

Happy to see you are back Whitewave. flowers

Hooray! Welcome back WWM.

Lovely to see that we all have the same idea, that no poster should get their unjust desserts.
And I know that some of you were busy behind the scenes trying to right this wrong.
GNVQ came good in the end.

I don’t remember GSM but start a campaign if you do?

FriedGreenTomatoes2 Fri 10-Oct-25 14:19:09

Indeed. A timely reminder Oreo.
Thank you.

Nobody knows why posters are banned on forums except the moderators and the banned person.Sometimes they are allowed back after a period of ‘grace’ and sometimes not, it’s all in the hands of the moderation team.
If posters observe forum guidelines then it wouldn’t ever happen. Time for everyone to remember there’s a real person behind every user name.

WWM - welcome back !
Now , what about GSM - doesn’t GNHQ realise what an asset she is ?

GrannyGravy13 Fri 10-Oct-25 14:16:05

I am really pleased you have been reinstated 👍

Saw some really interesting perspectives on these two threads.

Could you point us in the right direction? Would be informative I think.

Wwmk2 I missed the fact that you had gone, nice to see it wasn't for ever

Oldbutstilluseful Fri 10-Oct-25 14:07:40

Common sense prevails. I would also like GSM back, please

foxie48 Fri 10-Oct-25 14:07:05

Thank goodness, common sense won! Welcome back WWM

Very very glad to see you back WWM no one deserves to be shut out like that Welcome back and don’t change you’re a very intelligent well informed poster (and it seems very popular too) 👋

TillyTrotter Fri 10-Oct-25 13:57:05

Maybe check first to find out if she wishes to come back?
Her legal advice was solid.

I think she could very well already be back.

She isn’t back although she’d like to be.
We keep in touch.

Fair enough! I was wrong.

Delighted to see you back Whitewave! I know you don’t have much time for my nonsense on N&P but you are never rude.

Sillydilly Fri 10-Oct-25 13:41:02

I am so pleased you are back.

Your posts are always well informed and interesting, I look forward to reading more of them.

I can tell you she isn’t but would like to be..

Maremia Fri 10-Oct-25 13:38:17

With a new name? Fair enough.

Welcome back, I don't like to see posters banned whether I agree with them or not, that's immaterial. Established posters who have been here over the years become part of the tight knit GN community and when we notice they aren't posting it's natural to wonder what's happened.
