Because Sharon, 1 member felt hurt? By a NON-MEMBER? or because Ms Big was inconvienienced? Val, I understand you wanting to fight for your right to chat with other members, but you can put your point across without making jabs at individuals like Sharon and myself! Yes, the Tag board annoyed the Hell out of me. It's perfectly reasonable to ask for it not to be on every single page of a large board. I voiced this first, because I'm a Watcher and sometimes other quieter members need a voice. However, lots of people in this thread said they found it annoying too. It's not just one person that was inconvenienced. I only asked that the Tag board be limited to one thread, I didn't ask for it to be removed. As for the situation with Sharon, that's one hundred times worse than inconvenience. Again, maybe her situation was an accident but she was still hurt by it. Again, she wasn't the only member who was affected and concerned about this. Identity theft is scary. It highlighted the fact that anyone could pretend to be someone else and chat under false pretenses. Flobbster was quite right in the circumstances to remove the Tag board until CMK could adjust it's usage to be safe, fun and contained in one place.

Thanks CMK
i really enjoyed writing on their but i do understand that it was annoying when it refreshed. I wasn't there when the thing with Sharon happened so i don't know the details on that, but when i was on there everything seemed fine.
As long its restriced to one board where only members can go then i think that's alot better for the people who don't use it

Ms Big, it wasnt meant to be a jab in ANY way..I clearly stated you BOTH had your right to your opinion. I consider you and Sharon GOOD friends and COMPLETELY understood your sides of it, my intention was the fact that more people enjoyed the tag board then not. And I did not want a few negative opinions to ruin it for everybody (as happens sometimes). I understand it not being forced on members who dont want it, but it also shouldnt be excluded from members who do want it. And thats what was happening. And at the time I posted this there was NO mention of fixing and replaceing it, only removing it without so much as an explanation. Had there been anything more than a short one liner from Flobbo..I NEVER would have posted anything at all. I posted a few times myself that the board should be members only, and I definately think it should NOT have been on every page. Hopefully you can understand I was frustrated. The mods made the decision NOT members, and I have nothing against you or Sharon (whom I backed up 100% in many pms, on the tag board.. etc... ). I backed you up on these posts too and when I emailed you. So please dont take me out of context, I was simply using your names as examples. Even if the Tag board was gone for good, I wouldnt think of it as your faults in anyway. It is ultimately the mods decisions as to what they do with our opinions. Im just happy that its back and you got your way (its moved) and Sharon can probably rest easier (no Non-Members).I dont Think we are going to have the problems like we had before now. Tweaks needed to be made and they were. Life is good :-) -Val

OK. I am glad it's back, but having the time and date in there makes it bloody difficult to read. Can we please lose them?
cheers

It annoyed me when it was on every page, and I'm glad that was changed. Now that it's in one section of its own, no worries.
