Blogs and boards: getting the balance right 9:18pm on 09 Aug 2009 You are very welcome Paul. I've had plenty of 'doh' moments myself, over the years.

The reply button only shows when the board is open. For POV the opening
times are;
Mon-Sat: 0900-2200
Sun: 1000-2200
Blogs and boards: getting the balance right 5:28pm on 04 Aug 2009 Actually (decimal point error, Maths is a mystery to me) it's 7.30.

730p.

A bargain.
Blogs and boards: getting the balance right 5:21pm on 04 Aug 2009 Boilerplated, 2p a day is 73 quid, not 700 quid.
Blogs and boards: getting the balance right 12:09pm on 04 Aug 2009 Nick, were there other people presenting too, people who prefer message boards to blogs? People who see the value in them? I imagine so, I hope so, otherwise it could have been a bit one-sided.

Moderation: Let's talk it over (2) 11:45am on 03 Jul 2009 Bigger sigh.
Moderation: Let's talk it over (2) 11:39am on 03 Jul 2009 The mod could be [b]un[b/]decided even.

*sigh*
Moderation: Let's talk it over (2) 11:38am on 03 Jul 2009 Hello Paul, yes that email address is active, I look forward to hearing from you.

Re your second mail. I reached that conclusion because the moderation message says that the post has been referred to a Host for a decision. Obviously that's a standard message but when that message is up all weekend surely the only resonable assumption is that the mod is indecided and the Host will look at it on Monday?

It seems a fairly sensible assumption to make - sorry if there's a more obvious one that hasn't occurred to me.
Moderation: Let's talk it over (2) 6:25pm on 02 Jul 2009 "I can also understand why the BBC might not want to publish a list of automatically filtered words, as it could be used to launch a DoS attack."

I've no idea what a DoS attack is Boilerplated but you are no doubt right.

And I'd like to add that - in case someone thinks that I posted obscene language - the word that I used has been uttered pre watershed, many times on the BBC, and isn't even considered a swear word in the US. And
was the mildest trangression that I could think of.
Moderation: Let's talk it over (2) 6:22pm on 02 Jul 2009 I was not swearing, I was asking for help after my #73 was ignored.

For your information Nick the asterisked versions of that word were referred to the moderators. The referral was 'hanging' all weekend which can only mean that it was referred to the Host of that board.

The post was PASSED and is there in all its glory.

The poster is a friend of the Host.

If the full word fails the House Rules then the asterisked version should too - but they have PASSED YOUR moderation system.

No wonder there is so much confusion.

And I wish that Paul would host these discussions because he wouldn't
over-react so.
