Troll hunting and thread deletions

Hello
We wanted to clear a few things up:
1) We don't allow troll hunting on the forums. If you are worried someone may not be genuine, please email us directly or report any concerning posts to us. We will deal with it. Making accusations on the forums is not helpful and could, if incorrect, lead to possibly vulnerable people feeling victimised. We will have to delete threads that accuse other users of being trolls.
2) PMs. We take a very dim view of this being abused. If you receive an unwanted or unkind PM please report it to us. We can take a look and deal with it. You are also able to block other users so that they are no longer able to PM you. Please use this. And apologies in advance if this does happen to you. It's not nice and not what Gransnet is about at all.
3) Despite what it feels like tonight hmm we do not enjoy deleting threads. We have a handful of guidelines, all there with the purpose of making the threads better, and more welcoming for users. We are doing our best and rely on you to report things to us that seem concerning, so thank you for caring so much about the site and reporting anything that looks suspicious.

Thank you
GNHQ

Wondering if GNHQ will ever tell us if certain "members" have been banned, it just put on the naughty step?

I seem to think that a few years ago when a popular but sometimes contentious member was banned, we were told. If course, I may not be remembering correctly.

Hello oops it’s like being back at skul again isn’t it.
What you have done in your post 13.09 is that you have spaces between your - -. Try zooming in on it so you can see it more clearly and put the cursor between the dashes and take the space out. As bluebelle says, there are no spaces. No spaces between the -‘s or the the beginning or end of the word.
It’s such a faff but if you want to use strike through have another go. It took me a while too. If you get it right you can have a cupcake

like this I can do it on iPad but not on my iPhone or laptop??‍♀️

charleygirl you ought to try and find some episodes of Sooty and Sweep on you tube. Many of them have been X rated due to the sexual content but it might be worth you looking.
I believe Soo did an exercise video too. ?

Beechnut Fri 21-Aug-20 13:11:31

Ooh thanks Lucca

Lucca Fri 21-Aug-20 13:11:00

Bad luck Oops, but we know you tried your best.?
