Well MTB and some Rowland guy have confirmed they have not donated (which is confirmed by the absence tha magic 'gold star') and they seem to be most vociferous about the lack of transparency, these being the ones I was referring to. Anyway, joking aside, what is this gold star thing about? Is it like when you give dogs chocolate drops when they are good? A number of forums do it in some shape or form One I am on puts 'contributor' under your avatar - I guess some people like to be seen to be contributing financially to a forums' upkeep. It would be better if you could opt. if you wish to not have anything displayed. I would say.

Yes, indeed - a thread titled 'ThunderBunnies - Men Keep Out!' - crocheting and crotchless knickers. The 'ladies' of TB whilst not being 'sweary sweaty ole codgers' are not, in my opinion 'fluffy thunder bunnies' needing our own thread to discuss all things crochet(haven't a clue on that subject)...I prefer to contribute as and when...obviously some of these threads are not quite our scene but we have the choice not to engage.... If I recollect it was 'offending the sensitive' over there that lead to all sorts of silliness... Well said! Thunder bunnies my ar....... foot

Surely you'd have to be part of the 'team' over there to know for sure who really has donated and who hasn't . Well MTB and some Rowland guy have confirmed they have not donated (which is confirmed by the absence tha magic 'gold star') and they seem to be most vociferous about the lack of transparency, these being the ones I was referring to. If you read the thread properly you will note that the absence of a gold star means fuck all as anyone who contributes by PayPal does not get such a star because of technical difficulties. What a load of shit. If members wish to contribute it should be done voluntarily without some of them and us stars. Two things they need to urgently do is a) get rid of the stars and b) issue accounts, even if only to contributors.

This particular aspect of the discussion related to something else though.

They can either start again or ask for it. I might donate a penny so I can have a gold star.

You brought up the absence of gold star meaning they are not contributors, which as I rightly corrected means fuck all as not all contributors are recognised.

I think you should read, digest and fully comprehend the text in my signature and try again. You 'rightly' corrected nothing of the sort.

Brilliant. Athy says as long as there s no personal insults carry on debating Lola admits the thunderboat way is the best. "This thread needs to remain on topic guys. Β We donβt want to moderate, as you will note we hope self moderation works as well/better." And then a handfullof posts later it was locked. Hahaha There wasent much in that thread at all. Reminds me of last night. We had a copper in the shop about 4am. He said oh there is a knife fight on a certain road coming across his radio he then asked if we knew where it was. He then continued to make his Costa coffee before getting back in his van. No rush then. To be fair he was in the van so probably only required to lock them up in afterwoods

The crystal ball is working well with NB Lola:- Ok, Blackrose lit the seemingly blue touch paper and sat back. This conversation is unlikely to provide any useful output so I have decided to close it. Happy to receive any complaint or compliment privately. Perhaps the bloke is at work. Perhaps he has been taken ill. Perhaps be dropped his phone in the river Nene. Perhaps he has been abducted by aliens. Perhaps he's decided watching paint dry is more entertaining and rewarding? I didn't realise there was a strict time frame you must join in a discussion having started a thread. Blackrose got arsey last time one of his VP threads got locked (to be fair it was about a science documentary and was locked on similarly muddled and Wolly thinking) after that he lost the plot then made a bit of a Wally of himself by using a doppelganger account. I wonder if history will repeat itself?
