    A thread ''Is this a uniquely irish mentality?'' talking about people coming on here looking for ways to try and get out of playing for things etc on the Consumer Issues was locked today. Why? Im not quite sure really, nothing in the thread was a lie and most was totally ture yet mod dudara locked it.

    Another thread about a dept collection agent when the OP give no info of any sort just that they ''while as I refuse to pay them as from day one I was been overcharged'' dony say a word about how or why they are, yet when they're told the truth once again dudara swoops in to defend the OP, saying '' Let's refrain from making judgement calls about the OP without knowing all the facts'' If thats the case why was the thread allowed to be opened in the first place?

    Why i say they're turning a blind eye is this. A thread talking about the very thing that happens in plenty of threads is closed while one where it is happening isnt. They then say ''I don't want any high-horsing in here.'' when they are the only ones getting on their high horse. Iv been reading for a while but just stated to post and have noticed this a lot with the mod in question, happy to turn a blind eye to threads about people looking to get out of playing but will act straight away if someone questions this.

    Interesting that a poster on the site a mere two days has such an attitude and knows where Feedback is.....

    Probably has more relevance now that the status is - Banned.

    username888 (or I also suspect lala88) - I know you have been banned, but I will reply in the chance that you are reading this as an unregistered poster.

    If you are indeed lala88, I have repeatedly told you in the past that I do not "turn a blind eye" to posters who post in relation to debt. It is not my job to patrol all these. They can post, and anyone who has a contrary opinion is also free to post. All I ask is that people post in a "non-attacking" manner. So if you feel someone is seeking advice on how to avoid a debt, please post too. You have that right. Just don't cross the line into personal attacks.

    If you do not understand this, after repeated warnings, then there is little more that I can say to you.
