The Grass Is Greener. Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Just now, Gaz said: If he has got a warning, I'd imagine it's probably for spending time on P&B during work hours rather than the context of any posts. I'd imagine getting it brought to his attention and having to have a word with BS is what Throbber means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right enough. Wasn't even thinking about it from that point of view. Talk about a nasty piece of work going running to the guys boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I've had to spend the day working rather than following here, although with no talkings-to from the boss. Can someone sum up what's been going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's utterly disgraceful. His boss may well have laughed it off but this episode is a terrible look from a professional position at work I'm not sure too many people on here realise this.

The OP Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I've had 3 PMs about dots in my time here - all 3 of which were from posters I don't think are on here anymore. Two were from a poster whose identity I'll keep secret by labelling 'Audaciously Fortunate Juventus' - one thanking me for positive rep and one querying why I downvoted an inoffensive but lengthy and boring post. The other was from the Taxman apologising for downvoting by accident. Each time I felt a bit strange that the posters in question cared enough or thought I cared enough. I've also been pretty concerned about giving too much away ever since people went to the trouble of finding Magee's picture when he posted his gas fitter's ID number or whatever.

Gaz Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I used to work at Prudential, they were fairly lax about their internet usage but one day all of a sudden P&B was blocked. At the time, though, a prominent poster on here worked in IT at Pru. A swift e-mail to him and access was restored. Magnificent.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he should have his posts greenies to f**k so he goes down as the best contributor of all time, he's only 500 or so behind Mozza. Not bothered by dots though?

I thought that was the most out of order episode till this one. I think it was just after I joined so probably didn't make an issue of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.T Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 It's been such a crazy weekend of events that I'm half guessing this was all a master plan by a few key players to get rid of 8Mile and Grimbo. Bobby will no doubt return to the forum in the next day or so. It's been as entertaining as the Usual suspects and Bobby is Keyser Soze, imo.

Big Fifer Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I believe I work in the same industry as oor man Skidders and what I would say is that it's extremely difficult to get the sack unless you make a complete c**t of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diegomarahenry Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 If he cancelled his log-in would it remove his posting history? Maybe a (self motivated) ban is the only way to remove the posts from public record as such Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
