What oh Dex, thanks for the info

Hi Vlad..
Not such a big audience over here.. But we are nice..
The rules are not as strict here..  no moderators.. and you can use naughty words if it pleases you...  :wink:

This place is a sort of health spa for the elderly and infirm to have a bit of respite in.

Yes, thanks Mups.
My hints to him may have needed your further clarification but, as I mentioned elsewhere, I have had to pay the price!

Quote from: JBR on April 10, 2024, 11:42:51 AMYes, thanks Mups.

Oh dear . . .  am I in  trouble now for helping Vlad?   :hmm:

Depending on just how paranoid Chris is you may be. He does know the URL of this place and should he ever forget he could check on the entries in his profanity censor. So if he bothers to read your posts here he'll know just how naughty you have been.

He was well miffed when this place was set up and refused to believe the reason was that all the evidence pointed to him giving up on running PF as he did nothing to fix the frequent outages it was getting. My bet is that he had put it on free hosting. This monster thread resulted

My last post on PF.

https://www.pensionersforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,30682.msg653665.html#msg653665

I was on pre-moderation so his later suggestion that I was repeating the cardinal sin of posting the URL of this place was pure garbage

Just a yes or no will suffice, no creeping about the bush!!

Well, on the one hand it might or might not be.  But one has to consider gender transitioning.

Yes.

This site was created when it looked like PF was going to go under. It nearly did but then a bunch from the over 50s turned up and rescued it.

And many of us refugees rarely visit it now.  Of course some can't. 😉

I bob in occasionally to see if Brian has any new topics of conversation, but nothing to mention so far.

I miss the old PF, it had become a place of refuge for me. But now......  :cry:

You've got here now RAven !!!!  :upvote:

Quote from: Mups on April 10, 2024, 03:20:59 PMOh dear . . .  am I in  trouble now for helping Vlad?  :hmm:

No!  Absolutely not.

I made the posts which I thought may have given Vlad a clue where we are here.
I had just assumed that you had explained things to Vlad via email.

I'm sure I must have been mistaken to say that.  Sorry.

Yes. 
I rarely visit it now, though, as the boss is becoming pretty dictatorial.  I only go there if nothing's happening here!

🤣🤣🤣

Oh, I'm pleased that someone else reads Brian's words of wisdom.  Some people pour scorn on him, but I can relate to him... honestly!

I am sorry if I have upset anyone,  I meant no harm whatsoever and all the forum politics never entered my head.

I had better leave it at that.   :lipsrsealed:

You haven't upset anyone here AFAIK.  We like new blood 🩸☺️

Mups.. Don't be daft girl.. Anyone can use this site .. You haven't done anything wrong..
I pop into PF sometimes.. Just to look at The Last Post.. Dongles started it but , sadly, he has left the site.. and the thread is slowly dying..
Forums come and go.. They are popular one minute and the next minute they are dead.. PF was lucky enough to have many members from another site that was on the way out.. They were the lifeline for PF..
I prefer this forum simply because there are no hard and fast rules.. We do not have a dictator who (punishes) us if we say something THEY do not like..

We also have private messaging.. Where Alex and me talk about MAFS.. because we are saddo's ..

I am pleased that we have a few new members.. wish we had more..  

As usual I'm bringing up the rear on gossip  :cool: what happened, what did I miss and what is Mups talking about ?

I have no idea what happened.. or what Mups is talking about..
I just wanted to get in on the act..  :hmm:

:clap: :clap:

Hi Vlad  :yahoo:

You haven't upset me, Mups, and I'm sure nobody else here.

The only forum politics, as far as I'm concerned, are on the mother ship.  Even then, it is all down to the boss who hates the idea of members of his forum discovering this forum, which I think is rather childish.

And the real up-side is that Vlad has arrived here!

Only problem with advertising over there is bringing the Mother ship ' troubles ' over here.  Although I'm certain Klondike wouldn't admit the likes of Sciatico here.

Remember Teacher. As always when somebody is being unpleasant you all get a say the section that appears once the poster has made enough posts. You lot said let him stay. Had it been up to me I'd have deleted the id because imo he was an objectionable arse. In the end he got the message from responses and departed anyway.

Oh, I don't think Vlad's a troublemaker.

There are others there who certainly are, though.  Scattico for example, as you say.  I just avoid him (out of politeness).

Quote from: JBR on April 12, 2024, 09:59:10 AMI just avoid him (out of politeness).

I didn't. I'm obviously not so polite as you. I call a spade a spade and the likes of Siatico a [censored] over there.

I am a bit puzzled...is this about me? Ahh just seen the edited post , it's not me...ignore me.

Well I'm still here.  I haven't been hung, drawn and quartered - so far.  :smiley:

I never dreamed just helping an old mate  could get someone horse-whipped and banned!  
Crazy!   :rolleyes:

Oh, I haven't been banned, just put on pre-moderation, though it doesn't bother me at all.

Fortunately, I haven't been horse-whipped either.
