Fair point Craig.

Take this as a first and final warning VOR. If you continue to post personal attacks about people on this forum we will have no alternative but to ban you from our site. This is not something I want to do, but you may leave me with no choice.

Gaz,

I have spoken to the VOR, and he has apologised for the post you referred to. I haven't seen it myself, as it appears to have been deleted by the webmaster.

Hopefully, that is now the end of the matter, and we shouldn't see any more personal attacks from him.

Trusting that this resolves things to your satisfaction.

Andy.

Does that include those selling 'pills'?

Yes, of course it does.

We're getting swamped on pretty much a daily basis, by around 30+ posts at a time, all selling the same kind of cr*p. I delete the posts as soon as I see them, ban the user, and the IP address. There's not much else I can do I'm afraid.
