    I see the Farming & Forestry Forum has slapped a blanket ban on any mention of eagle poisonings (or any other cause of eagle deaths).

    Any idea why?

    I obviously can't raise this over there - ITS BANNED!

    God it'll be a quiet place around here if every forum bans repetitive discussions that are going nowhere!

    Perhaps - but multiple threads on multiple forums on the same topic with the same title isn't really on either.

    Ah fair enough. An over-reaction to an over-reaction perhaps.

    Delete at will, I give up.

    LostCovey,
    You pasted this over in F&F too. And you were told to pm the F&F mod. Could you not wait for him to reply?
    Your obviously very fond of these eagles and can understand you may be annoyed or even hurt but im beginning to think your trying to stir something with all the threads.
    Either that or your trying to gather a lot of info for some reason

    I posted it last night.

    The suggestion to PM the moderator was posted this morning

    Not annoyed or hurt, and I am 'fond' of my family not eagles. I am feeling a bit patronised by you however.

    And an anonymised online forum that anyone can join would be a brilliant place to secretly gather evidence. What planet?

    So according to you I am
    - an ignoramus who is missing some subtle reason not to discuss this in a discussion forum
    - stupidly ignoring advice from someone I don't know to discuss this offline with someone else I don't know (for whatever reason)
    - a bleeding heart tree-hugger/eagle-fondler
    - a secret spy here to sneak in here and gather information (while disguised as a reactionary emotional tree-hugger/eagle-fondler)


    Good luck with your detective agency, fella.

    PM a mod of that section or take it to the helpdesk then. Dont use this forum as a platform to discuss another one.
