Also on the Michael thread, no matter how good intentioned, it was encouraging personal referral to a forum member which will illicit both positive and negative opinions. Those that appreciate a forum members contributions will let them know one way or another, without needing a specific thread

Good point, Micheal's was a light hearted thread, he posted in it himself, what is wrong with boosting a member who gets alot of negativity up, i think what should have happened is the negative comments should have been removed,. there have been threads about members before when they went awol and they went pages long with no penalities.

Dezzy I comment you for your comments in this thread I do think progress has been made across the great divide

Totally agree plus most people could see it was a positive thread,shame some have to spoil them.There is nothing wrong with being nice now and again.Plus I really don't care who sees my infractions bans etc,if I have been bad I will take a slap on the wrist.

But then, those that posted negatively will get pissed if their posts were deleted, and also, it projects a group mentality that i don't think is healthy personally as I already think there is far to much group mentality on display already.

If someone makes a feel good thread, going into it to specifically say nasty things is against forum rules as it is insulting members so there should be no debate over their deletion
