That is a very odd moderation decision! Seems like Greebo will have to just post the answer to this type of question from now on, and it'll be a race to see who can hit Reply/Post quickest

Well my reverse translation seems to still be up

Ah so this explains why I've been waiting to see today's question appear in my new conversations with no Tuesday 30 July cropping up.

Wish I knew what the question was.

Hmmmm...... Greebo - have you tried asking the Italics if the Moderators could please refer new conversations in this particular forum to the Italics rather than trying to decide for themselves (which they obviously have some difficulties with)?

wow, an hour or two and still it hasn't come back.

Nearly a day and it isn't back - did you complain about the moderation decision Greebo?

The mods seem to have gone a bit mad in the last day or so

Greebs, the thing is that if they cannot understand something, the Moderators are asked to fail it because there is no way that they can check you are being offensive or anything else that might break the House Rules.

Now I know you wouldn't do that! But they don't and it particularly counts with codes, Bubblish for example, is referred to me, I translate it and put it back up. But most codes are failed straight out, like foriegn language postings are referred.

Any way the post is back up now, can you confirm that the answer is not anything too naughty?

So with code questions there is an added frisson of excitement as the race is against the mods as well as one another


(I'll still never get a question right though)

So Come on then Greebo, Polidari probably wants his point...

for all the inconvenience...

Hadn't even noticed

Yay! At last someone else who likes Quadrophenia

Click on the thing where it says to whom I was replying. To Who, indeed

Well done Polidari... a point to you...

Thank You!

frenzy!!!
