You know what Jim? I actually *did* post my usual
10 page riposte - at about 6.30 pm (ish). Just as
I was freely allowed to do at the Talk4 forum, and
at Gevincountdown - but strangely enough not here!!
I can sum that up in just 1 word - disrespect.

At the moment, each of my messages is subjected to
the restriction of NOT BEING ALLOWED TO APPEAR
onscreen until one of this forums's moderators (or
the owner Ben) chooses to *let* them appear.
Hence the delay of over 4 hours between my 1st
attempt at posting message at 18:30 ish Tuesday,
and the final appearance of my message at 22:53.

--------

It has been previously claimed (May 05?) that this
forum does not need more than 3 moderators. Well
if that claim is NOT complete and utter bunkum,
then one way of the other, I shouldn't be getting
made to wait for hours at a time before my messages
appear onscreen. That is if they appear at all ....

And Jim Bentley & everyone else wishing to read my
messages should NOT be getting deprived of the
opportunity to read my messages for hours at a time.

Not by anyone is isn't prepared to have those
actions as a subject of public knowledge, public
scrutiny, public criticism, and in this case
public scorn.

Let now us see whether the proper respect that
should exist for Countdown forum contributors like
myself (and forum fans such as Jim Bentley) is still
alive and well ... or as dead as a Norwegian parrot.
