This is an example of a thread that is coming close to being Lounged which is unfair the original poster. The original post was "What East Dulwich needs?", the original poster has not commented and taken their own thread off topic so please, perhaps a little respect to their post and original question. I don't like doing this but I get complaints that threads get taken off topic really quickly.

Personal attacks on people will not be tolerated - we are having a clean up and some comments / threads are being removed, not many, only a couple that have been brought to our attention. If you see something that is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, threatening or illegal please tell us immediately and we will deal with it. This forum was created to be a fun place and a useful tool for the East Dulwich community and we sincerely apologise for any offence that it may have caused to any individuals. If you see something posted that is offensive (or could be offensive to others), please let me know so I can deal with it as as soon as possible. Please don't assume that someone else will do it, your help is greatly appreciated in this as it will help the forum to thrive and continue. Just a regular reminder for people of some of the preferred ways of the forum: - Of course the obvious one is please try and keep on topic, i.e. try and consider the thread's title when replying. - Please, no irrelevant chatting between users within a thread, of course it's fine to chat but taking over a thread with inappropriate chat is frowned upon. - Please post in the relevant section (there have been quite a few 'wanteds' going in the general ED Gossip section recently), I will move threads as I deem necessary. - If starting a thread please make the title relevent e.g. don't use the title "boxes" when "where can I get cardboard boxes?" would be better. - Please remember that not everyone has used the forum since day one, so sometimes new people will ask a question that's been asked before. If possible give them a link to the thread where it's been discussed before. (How to create a link) - Please do not direct personal attacks at people. It can put you, me and this forum in an awkward legal situation and it's not very nice. This site gets quite a few visitors other than those who post on it i.e. there's lots of people who just like to watch. There were 1,453 visitors on Monday, and 24,630 page views on Tuesday and it's hard work keeping a bit of order. At the moment there are in excess of 400 posts a day and that's a lot to keep an eye on so any help with the housekeeping is greatly appreciated. I hope that wasn't too heavy going, thanks for listening and most of all thank you for using the forum regards

I see what you mean, I shall change the wording to convey what I truly desired to say

Thanks Huguenot, now my explanation of the same you can just type in the website address making sure you put in htp:// before the www. bit. When you do, the link on the message will look like this: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/ or you can click the icon (4th from the right) just above the text box in which you type of the globe with a chain link. This pops up a box where you enter the website address then another box asks for the description, this then makes the words a link like this: The East Dulwich Forum I hope that helps

Please remember that most people think that you posting is simply about buying handbags, however now we know there were a few hundred people queueing at the East Dulwich Sainsburys to buy one that's a different matter. Moved back. Are they nice handbags and did you manage to get one?

Moved to the Lounge as it's not really East Dulwich specific

Please keep this on the topic of "things I dislike about modern East Dulwich" If you want to chat between yourselves please do so in the Lounge

this is veering off topic and close to being Lounged

Please can you explain where it shows February constantly

I've made this an announcement for today Ferris road is here http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Ferris+Road+SE22&sll=53.098145,-2.443696&sspn=8.17155,20.566406&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=16&om=1&iwloc=addr

Please try and stay roughly on topic Asking Keef directly about his phone bill in a thread about a local chess club is taking it too off topic. If you want to chat about things not related to East Dulwich please go to the Lounge.

Moving this to the lounge as it's not really East Dulwich related

moved to The Lounge

As this debate has now gone totally off topic and by request (by a few) this thread is now closed.

"Gents" was aimed at Bob, Keef and Ant, not you Mockney although I am assured you are a Gent

Gents, you're taking this thread too far off topic, please don't

no need, I have increased the size of the number of allowable PMs

We're really sorry, due to circumstances beyond our control the computer this website lives on had a bit of a wobbly morning and collapsed. I've been told it's ok now and should be back to normal now. OK, it still seems to be intermittent but we're keeping an eye on it.

poshness -> Scandinavian teams -> shelving units -> dragons -> Lounged

Take this to the Lounge
