Totally missed the point there, well done.Originally posted by DeludedAussie View PostThey cannot have been thoughtless or clueless as they turned out to be spot on.
Its a shame that even after being vindicated you still accuse knoweldgeable members of the forum of stupidity

It's ok. It's only deludedaussie that she won't tolerate being a feckwit.Originally posted by cojak View Post...
I've put up with your clueless drivel for years but I will not tolerate you being a feckwit as well.
The rest of us are safe.
I think DeludedAussie is to blame for the whole debacle. he should have taken his suspicions to the police instead of posting here.
Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Would have responded to this earlier but had really hectic day yesterday. I only saw this late last night and was in no mood for responding at the time. I have checked the thread (http://forums.contractoruk.com/accou...investors.html) and actually I did delete a comment of yours, it was a pretty vague post about the quality of service you have received from them in terms of delays in getting things done and answering the phone. A pretty harmless comment but was not on thread and was such a throw away comment that could have been posted by a competitor and that was why I deleted it I expect. All you said was:Originally posted by DeludedAussie View PostI actually hold CUK accountable for a fair bit of what went on with Darren Upton.
When the story broke of a FSA fine I posted on here my views of working with Darren
Admin removed this and gave me a warning
I started several posts on this subject and they were wither locked or deleted
If the forum would have allowed everyone to share their views of what had happened I doubt Mr Upton would have been able to get away with this
Admin - How do you plead?
So actually you are entirely correct, your two lines above which I deleted would have caused all of Darren's clients to immediately leave his services and nobody would have lost any money. Actually, I feel really bad now. If had not deleted your comment then Darren would not have committed the fraud as he would have had no clients, therefore it is actually my fault that he is in jail now as well as any of his clients losing money. Oh god, I feel awafulOriginally posted by DeludedAussie;I left Upton for Nixxon Williams - Could not be happier
I always found Upton slow to get stuff done and always too busy to take calls
Should I hand myself in to the cops or just top myself now for being so stupid?
CUK is a truly astounding resource for contractors and I want to keep it that way. We have helped a lot of people over the years and I want to make sure this continues. Due to this we do delete posts from time to time and this is done to protect me from the pain in the arse of dealing with solicitors and also to make sure that the board stays online. With posts like your one above, sometimes they get deleted and the poster told why, sometimes they just get deleted, sometimes they stay on the post - this is all down to which mods (myself included) read the post and how they feel at that given point in time.
Take a look at the post above and also do a search of the forum for Uptons:

As you can see, we love to stifle discussions on here. At least I have another idea now for negative rep status title(s)
