Most DS posters wouldn't last 5 mins over here they would be told to f off if they start that nonsense here most likely grabbing their pearls and sniffing the smelling salts with some of the threads here.
They'd get a bit of a shock that's for sure. Imagine having to read posts were people disagree and don't pander to you!!

Yes. I reported the comment which is something I very, very rarely do and it was later removed but no ban. Other posters have been banned for a lot less.
There's something very wrong if someone can post something like that and not get a ban yet I know people who have had bans for pointing out a posters spelling mistake!! My bans have been for the most ridiculous things and it actually makes me angry reading that kind of post is apparently acceptable.

Does anyone remember the pearl necklace thread that got moved to the style section? Or was that an urban legend?

Disagree? What do you think it is, a discussion forum or something? You're not supposed to disagree, even politely.

I haven't seen those posts but I remember Waldo being a lot like that. Wasn't she always complaining about customers not bringing their own bags in?
She complained about everything customers did!

Oddly enough (since we are talking about bans and FP) I got a week's ban last year for criticising the heavy handed moderation over trans threads. I was expecting it though. 😆

She struck me as a very unhappy person. Part of me felt a bit sorry for her.
 
I still think DS is not as bad as some make out tbh
I still post on there regularly so something keeps drawing me back. It's easy to look back on things with rose tinted glasses but I still liked it better several years ago. Not sure what changed.

I've deleted my account after 17 years, load of old horse tit.
Who were you on DS? If you don't mind me asking that is (I'm a nosy parker).

Genuine question, why did you join TL if you don't have any problems with how bad DS has become over the last few years?

IMO, it's the inconsistency of fair moderation in recent times.

You can be members of more than one forum, surely? I dip in and out of several. Tattle is my favourite, it's busy and the posters are funny, kind and smart. Digital Spy used to be entertaining, and I'm not sure what changed - it's dull as ditchwater though.

Waldo was never suited to a customer service job. As for her breaking every rule during the first lockdown - supposed to be self isolating, yet was shopping at 2-3 different supermarkets everyday and boasting about it, I'm not surprised her comments were unwarranted.

Of course you can. It's just that I have noticed many posters here are those who have become disillusioned with DS.

Yes. I belong to a few. I do feel though that DS is the strangest. used to have so many varying opinions but now it's so hive-minded, many have given up posting in certain types of threads. Ive had so many warnings and temp bans in this last year, I never even had a warning before that.

Did you see that post where I ask you and the other person you were chatting too about that FM who was pm you both?

I once emailed one of the directors of Hearst but surprise surprise no response.

I am sure Occy is male, but not sure if his brain cell knows what he is.
Occy is male (unless fooling us!) I posted a few days ago here that his name is Mark. He posted something on DS that was addressed to him and included his name..

Aah, dear Tanya must finally realise DS posters are no longer buying her BS on the usual threads she manages to control. Now she is posting on the Food & Drink thread. Hopefully that won't last long as posters there are not interested in reading about boring chicken breasts and only eating kiwi fruits for lunch.

I'll assume you've managed to avoid some of the more extreme posters there then. It's not in all threads, there are still some really great posters there which is why I still contribute but I'm very select these days. There really are some nasty, vindictive posters there though and most of them seem to be supported by the mods which is perhaps the biggest gripe here.

Yes. A fictional character from a 1995 film.
Thank you. Yes, they are very well known for this all over forums. I call him the Soul sucker. Sucks the life out of good people who make the mistake of replying to a PM from him.

Madam Witchy - Post of the Day (y) - Until you have encountered so are fully aware what is happening on certain DS threads, you would never know the darkside of DS.
