Thanks Annie, but everyone loses out, banning the offending members would seem a better system as it feels like we are all punished for a handful of members who can't help themselves

The problem is often where there are multiple culprits. This punishment would have to be handed out quite widely which would no doubt cause it's own complaints. There are also some threads which are almost inherently prone to descending into arguments

Generally we do try and preserve a topic and that's why we'll post warnings in threads first and delete posts before closing a thread. That's only really a last resort when a thread seems unsalvageable

Let’s not rewrite history, Kate. Livia was the one who took it off-topic and started talking about members.

Don’t try to paint it like I’m the issue just because it fits whatever story you’re telling yourself.

Pointing out what actually happened isn’t “denigrating,” it’s correcting your spin. You’ve clearly got a problem with everything I post, but that doesn’t make it arguing. That’s just you seeing an argument in anything I say. Maybe take a step back and realise not everything revolves around your drama.

No. You don't listen. I caused no drama. I asked Annie to close it to stop it all. Everybody is sick of the same people causing crap constantly. I'm not apologising for answering back bitchy comments.

You jumped in on a reply I made to Livia who was talking **** about another member. Nothing to do with you.

You caused drama that had your thread closed. That you requested. Which for some reason I’m to blame for.
