Dr Crippen not posted for a while. I was away for 4 weeks and seem to remember him getting sick of the abuse from someone. Anyone know for sure?
Breedingmad banned. Temporary or what?
Studyform and Scandi both stopped posting. My last conversation with SF was amicable btw.
Agree or disagree with that's 4 prolific posters to add to the list.
Soon just be Spotty. Sad

Any others?

Twizzle no way has spotty blocked anyone, he's far too nosey.
Gave himself away on another thread by responding to my post.
Came back on to claim he was responding to someone else but his post made no sense other than a response to me.

Not the first time either. On another occasion he did similar but then said he'd got a PM telling him what I posted when he realised his error. Laugh

Why would he feel the need to make those posts at 17.23 and 17.24.
If we are blocked I think either he's just done it or he logs out to see what we've posted. Laugh

Yes akabula, I stopped posting on here (and betting,) after one of my posts was removed for no good reason that I could see.

My main issue is with Betfair, who fail to act over extremely malicious abuse.
Then clamp down heavily on the same person for the merest infraction of their terms and conditions.

They clearly have different rules, that they use for different posters.

I've said all along that people who are connected to Betfair or their employees post on here.
Which explains why some posts are removed so quickly, while others can't be removed at all, except without a lot of effort and complaining.
And then after plenty of time has elapsed, and the mud has been given a chance to stick.
The very act of leaving abuse up for so long before they remove it adds to the insult, as well they know.

It's their forum and their betting exchange.
I doubt that I'll be using either much in future, given the way they treat customers who post.

Good to hear from you DrC. Agree with what you are saying as well.
I was away for 4 weeks and only on here because of the poker.
Getting bored with the poker and close to giving it up.
Anyways keep healthy.

do folk really put a lot of effort into getting a post removed, ?
Report Dr Crippen • October 18, 2017 7:45 PM BST
Nice try at deflecting attention away from the point donny osmond.
Why would you want to do that?

The point is the double standards employed by Betfair regarding the enforcement of their rules.

I miss your posts, Dr Crippen, as they provided a much needed balance to some of the extreme Guardianista viewpoints expressed mainly on the Politics forum.
Having seen, however, some of the messages posted on another site, I felt that you could hardly be blamed for making a dignified retreat.

No, I don't believe that's true. Whilst we're on, would it be worth starting a "Forumites who should be missing" thread? I'll put myself in at number 3.

Don't be so negative, I am sure there are many of us who find you diverting from time to time.
