    They do have the power(I have seen the mods state this a couple of times) but I use the same ip as a banned user. And I am still here.

      BTW you forgot to call me a BGB!
      Why do you want to be a BGB? Erm ok fair enough, you are a BGB!!

        Maybe not for much longer. Braggers always come unstuck in the end!

          As far as I am concerned Denny will not be returning. Ferret had asked the thread to be dropped and she wanted to continue the conversation. As well as that she decided she would email me, suggesting the thread should be made a sticky as a "lesson". If ever there was "unacceptable agression" on CUK it was from here, shame she was too wrapped up herself to ever even consider this.

          As far as I am aware no-one warned her by PM or otherwise. I can see why the PCG banned her. Unlike the PCG board we do not have to justify bans to anyone. I am sure she will not be able to see why we booted her. I look back at her posts and the most viscious rants seemed to come in the evening. I think she entertained Mr Vin Rouge to excess every night and should seek help.

            its true that.
            I once climbed up the outside of the Empire state building for charity, with suckers on my knees, blue tack on my finger tips and sellotape on the front of my trainees. I was shouting through the windows as I went past about how great I am when suddenly I fell off

                  I know she goes overboard, but she had a point. This boards T&Cs seem to be applied ad hoc. I understand why she felt she was being ignored and any of us would push at such an injustice.
                  She may need time to reflect on her attitude, but she is no worse than other members who are allowed to rant and rave at will.
                  Give her a warning, even a wrist slap, but she was right. She often has valid points to make even if you do have to mine through half a tonne of bull before you find it.

                  If not letting it go is a crime then there are others who deserve a ban.
                  I am not qualified to give the above advice!

                  Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time
