has gone :-(

I haven't checked my Hotmail to see if I've had a message telling me off.

I didn't think it was offensive..... and neither did the publishers of British newspapers!

There doesn't seem to be any rule book about what is allowed.


I do enjoy the boards, but I am fed up with the ridiculous way things are going.

If you have an email from Admin send them a reply asking why they deleted it.
They may re-instate it.

I'm annoyed about the thread being pulled

I am MORE annoyed at what seems to be inconsistency by GR!!!!!

I'm going out now (another physiotherapist appointment :-( ) .... I'll look at email when I get back, see if I got a rap over the knuckles.

This is getting ridiculous.

If you google 4 hours 19 minutes British Men you get a Daily Mail article on the survey.

Surprise! Surprise!

NO email from GR to tell me off :-|

The link I posted was one I found on the msn home page... which led to an article in some British newspapers.

Are GR offended by msn? By British newspapers (errrr, don't answer that one).

The person who Reported the thread "may" have been offended by it, but what do they do....... complain to companies like msn?

Come on GR - I expect an explanation as to why the thread was pulled.

I won't contact GR directly, because I always get a generic response.

Frederick's link is the one originally posted by LadyScozz.

The thing I want to know (and not from the RR'r) is: are those men who spend 4 hours or more in a certain horizontal activity the same ones who make 'to do' lists in their heads at the same time :-S

It's no wonder the poor guys are confused at the gym.

They should be working in, not working out :-D

I think the "4 hours" might be what they spend thinking about it :-D

These guys are confused.........very! :-0

Well, in my day, the four hours spent thinking about it was wasted time :-D :-D :-D

I would love to know where you get your information from and how you know that it is only one person.

How on earth did my post get reported and then reinstated so quickly?

Is there any point in posting on this site....If someone finds a post offensive even a Daily Mail link.....it will be removed????

No wonder people are leaving in droves

Maybe that is the answer. The Rrer is not getting their share so didn't agree with the figures :-D

I did NOT receive an email from GR telling me the post was removed.

Rude.

Why should I bother contacting them (as Shelley suggests above)...... because I will get the usual generic response.

There is no point. I will be ignored or shrugged off.

I've given up contacting GR about anything.

I'd give examples, but I don't have the time, or the inclination...... because I'm fed up with their attitude.
