This lady of 81y lives alone and GN was a great source of company for her. These long winter days are difficult for many to cope with at the best of times. I learned recently that she was given a lifetime ban. I feel very sad about this.

In the spirit of ? and goodwill to all, would you let her rejoin?

Sofa Fri 03-Dec-21 19:55:38

I too would love to see EV back with us. A lifetime ban for an 81 year old seems incredibly harsh. I enjoyed her posts, please let her rejoin.

❤️ that DillytheGardener very clever!

Iam64 Fri 03-Dec-21 19:51:09

Yes, I rarely, if ever agreed with EV but a life time ban?!

Curlywhirly Fri 03-Dec-21 19:48:43

Please add my name to those wishing for EV to be reinstated. I too think lifetime bans are a rather draconian way of dealing with posters. Please reconsider your decision GN, as you can see EV has many supporters.

All Mariah Carey wants for Christmas is for Ellen to come home to Gransnet

I’d also like to add my support and request EV to be reinstated, there’s really no need for a lifetime ban.
Please GNHQ can you reconsider and reinstate. There’s so much support for this lady who does so much for others

Could we please hear from GNHQ why EV has been banned?

Nannagarra Fri 03-Dec-21 19:38:18

I’ve just reported my last post in the hope that the thread will receive some attention and feedback.

BlueBelle Fri 03-Dec-21 19:36:17

Reported mine too can we all do it an avalanche

Aldom Fri 03-Dec-21 19:34:06

I've reported mine too. smile

JaneJudge Fri 03-Dec-21 19:32:05

I am pretty new/slow/absent/etc but everyone doesn't understand why she has gone so let her back in?
she is 81 fgs and lives alone. If Gransnet don't let her back in the job centre will find her fit to work soon

BlueBelle Fri 03-Dec-21 19:31:45

If everyone reports their own post that might give GNHQ a message

Nannagarra Fri 03-Dec-21 19:30:20

Is there to be no room for EV in the inn this Christmas?

Poppyjo Fri 03-Dec-21 19:16:19

I am sure we have all at sometime in our lives said things which have come back to haunt us. ?. I have never seen anything written by this lady. It sounds as if she is much loved.

She too must be very sad and missing the Gransnet family. Christmas is a time for giving and caring GNHQ. Please forgive and let her come back. Thank you

Wheniwasyourage Fri 03-Dec-21 19:13:31

Please add my name too. I think lifetime bans are well over the top, and I can't imagine that EV could possibly have deserved it anyway.

I am interested to see that people whose opinions I never normally agree with are asking for her reinstatement, so you have obviously hit a nerve with a wide variety of GNers!

Poor EV convicted by a Kangaroo Court.
She often brought a smile to my face with her love of crumpets and daily reports of her menu.
If there is any justice let her return.

westendgirl Fri 03-Dec-21 19:08:29

I add my name asking for her return, that's if she would like to .A lifetime ban seems rather top heavy .

Parsley3 Fri 03-Dec-21 18:58:04

Has anyone any idea of the incident that led to EV being banned? What was so terrible? The precedent of allowing banned posters to return has already been set with no undesirable consequences, as far as I know.

NannyJan53 Fri 03-Dec-21 18:57:11

I too would like to add my name to this request. EV was a much loved and valued member, and I always enjoyed her posts on the Good Morning thread.

Urmstongran Fri 03-Dec-21 18:51:56

Thank you LauraNorderr (and then you too OBSU) I wouldn’t have thought or known about reporting a post so the mods could look at it.

Shows what really happens doesn’t it? They act on reports. Probably don’t spend time on here ‘just looking’ for perceived misdemeanours.

Sar53 Fri 03-Dec-21 18:50:47

I too would like my name added to the list to reinstate EV.

I cannot imagine what an 81 year old lady could have said to warrant a life time ban.

Come on GNHQ please do the decent thing.

Lucca Fri 03-Dec-21 18:47:50

Agree. A lifetime ban is unkind and unnecessary.

mokryna Fri 03-Dec-21 18:43:35

I would like to add my name to the list asking for the reinstatement of EV. I have no idea why she was banned but surely it’s time we saw her again.

tickingbird Fri 03-Dec-21 18:41:00

I’ll add my name to this. It’s so harsh to ban EV for life - it seems so over the top. Please reinstate this lady - please ??
