Well that's not correct in this case. People were voting the message as abusive, but Chris changed the code to auto-vote the profile as abusive too whenever someone marked a post as abusive. I thought this was a pretty bad idea and told him so in the Suggestions forum. So it was just bad design rather than members incorrectly voting his profile as abusive.

I find his posts amusing for their reliance on invective and vitriol to make his point which is usually vacuous and pointless.
But you keep on coming back anyway.

Pete, he deliberately bypasssed the swear filter - the don't tell me you couldn't work out what 'f' followed asterisks meant. The use of 'fag as a derogatory erm. "hope she's raped". Yes, it's me and I droppped in a bit to see if CP had changed but it hasn't.
Ahem - I'll keep your identity secret, but I explain my reasons for my comment here[^]. However, since I posted my original comment, it has turned out that Chris had a bug in the system where voting to remove a message could trigger removing a user, but yes - I agree that the post was out of line.

You misunderstand me. I agree with people voting the message as abusive. It was the fact that people had appeared to vote him as abusive. The two things are different but it appeared that people were treating them the same. That's what I disagree with.

Too much has been said already but I just want to say I'm sorry if you felt I was pointing you out as I really wasn't. I had read your explanation and was ok with it (not that it matters).
Pete O'Hanlon wrote:

Me too. I had reported the post not him. First time I do that except for spam I believe. I just had a feeling that even after it was known that there was a bug and that people might have only reported on the post, the general theme that was coming out was that if you know him and are offendable don't read. I know he has his own threshold for acceptable posts, I actualy smile at most of them, but didn't like what sounded like if it was the people who reported the post that were the problem. In short, not you, case closed for me!

How's it going Michael. You made a lot of news this weekend I see. Anyhow, not here to judge. Just wanted to know how your diabetes crap is going for you these days. Take care.

Take care.Going OK, still not looking after as well as I should, but trying to improve what I do and eat. Constant travel every week and stupid shit going on in the family making it tough to focus and stay on track. Need to sort some shit out and get back to the doctor for more answers, probably shoot you an email over the next week or so with some questions if that's alright.

(or were you saying you wouldn't buy me a beer because I live in Brissie :) )I'd only buy you a drink if we met up, but since you've chosen to live in Bryceyville that won't happen. Unless I go up to the Sunshine Coast to visit the Aunt again, but don't know when or if that will happen.

Book a trip for around 13/14 november - there's a total eclipse right over cairns, and I am hoping to go up there for a drink. Apparently some pissed-up Pom with an exterminator is going too - so it could be a bit of a laugh

I was looking up accommodation yesterday - and it seems to be largely booked out, so i may not be able to go anyway :( Of course, there's always the tent or the back of the car...
