CONTENT ON BULLETIN BOARD .....
Do you have the facility to erase articles off the Bulletin Board? The reason I am asking is because I always view the articles from my work PC, which has a 'FireWall' someone must have posted an answer with an article of a sexual nature because the firewall is banning me from veiwing. If you have the facility please remove the article so I can continue to read your site. Thank You

Hi Greg !
I can remove a posting if necessary, but I do not know what I am looking for!
Can you give me an idea of the type of thing which may be a problem?
I presume that it is only the BULLETIN Board which is causing you the problem, as you can obviously view and use the Opinions Board.
I should be able to search for the offending item if I know some appropriate search words !
The only message I know of that has sailed a bit close to the wind lately is message 313. I left it on as a warning to others that I will not tolerate people messing about with the board. I will send you the web page ( separately) as a test. If you do not receive it, let me know and I will try removing it to see if that sorts it for you.
Otherwise, the only offensive word which might caused problems is 'crap' which seem to be in such common use, it hardly seems likely to be the cause, however distastful !
Regards
Lesley

Ooops ! Sorry Greg - I cannot send page as a test because you did not provide your email address!
Please click 'Manager' above and send me a brief message direct so I can do this for you. (You do not have to put your email on the board)

Lesley,
thanks for your response, it appears that message 313 is the culprit, I have viewed on a friends personal PC with no problem. Sorry unable to provide an e-mail address due to the company I work for, but if that message could be removed I would appreciate it. It is very offensive and we do have a lot of young bowlers using this site. The decision is yours, keep up the good work.
Gregg

I have censored all but the original message and left my warning in place. Hopefully that should resolve your problem Greg. Come back to me if not.
I am grateful to you for using the appropriate way of registering a complaint. If all complainants did it this way, probably 75% of the problem could be avoided. Sometimes the protests are almost worse than the original problem!
Thank you.
Lesley
