There were a lot of threads by the same person CG. They were long and boring. Most of them nobody had bothered to read. Thats the only way I can describe them.

Thanks for that info. I checked it out and see what you mean. No big deal.
See what happens when I go missing? I just can't leave the place for a week and all goes to crap.
Only joking, but it is interesting to see what transpires in the course of a few days, when I have time to catch up.

Hi all,
The posts in question involved allegations of negligence against a caravan manufacturer.  The posts were very specific and named quite a few alleged instances of issues with this manufacturer.  Given that I had no way of substantiating the claims, I felt it best to delete them.  It appeared to me that the forum was being used to further a particular cause and to mount a campaign against this manufacturer.  I do not consider this to be appropriate.  Hope you all understand.

I'm confused. Did the long boring posts get sent to the Naughty Corner? Who decides what it is boring?

Good on you Cindy - I did read the posts, and they were quite strong in their comments re a certain manufacturer, I thought.

Yeh, Cindy to the rescue. Thanks Cindy I thought you would see them eventually and do just what you did.

If you look at another post of mine I made reference to not wanting to go into Techies Corner for a while. I was getting very annoyed with those posts and the poster, I reckon it was just better to keep away for a while.

Wombat mate, keep your eyes open and you might see missing posts, they were not hard to see.smile

I commend the Webmaster's action in removing these posts which in my opinion were a gross misuse of the forum.

the cmca have dropped their forum for the time being,due to i think problems with members posting libelous comments which will expose the club to legal action

Cindy has the right to remove any post's, it's her site and if there are going to be any legal problems I do not blame her for deleting them, but I don't think that was the case here.

sorry to hear about the cmca droping their forum, that's a big site, and a lot of memebers will no longer be able to talk to each other.

 I was thinking the same thing CG. I'm away for a week and all hell breaks loose! I'm still catching up on posts too.

I passed several wide loads on the Warrego Highway this week and checked for you.
