You haven't included the £1 postage cost per magazine Mikemike.perry wrote:What happened to my posting pointing out an error in the subcriptions?
According to the website 1 mag = £3.95 therefore 6 mags = £23.70 not £29.70.
Discount rate = £19 therefore saving = £4.70 not £10.70
Mike - there seems to have been a 'glitch' on the board this morning. Your last message was posted twice and when I deleted the duplicate post the original message went with it![]()
To answer your question of whether people should be informed when their messages are deleted, yes that is standard practice in relation to individual postings but in this case an entire thread was removed which would have meant sending pm's to around 10 - 12 people. Easy to do when you have loads of free time on your hands but not very practical when you're just briefly popping onto the messageboard to read a pm at 8pm on a Friday night! The original poster was contacted by pm later in the weekend.
The reason the entire thread was deleted was due to two things. Firstly, the initial post was unsolicited trade advertising which is against the site T&C's. Secondly, by the time I had had a chance to view the thread a number of other messages had been posted which were also contrary to the T&C's. If I had deleted the original message, and the other messages that were contrary to the site T&C's, the rest of the thread would have made no sense and in view of the nature of some of the messages it would not have been appropriate to keep the thread on the messageboard. So hopefully you can appreciate the reasons why I did not contact you personally via pm Mike.
Just a reminder that there is a system for reporting messages to mods - click on the 'exclamation mark' icon at the top right of a message box. This means that it is highlighted when we log on so can be identified, and dealt with, easily. Posting messages within a thread highlighting a breach of the T&Cs and criticising the mods for ignoring the matter, when you haven't actually made any attempt to bring it to their attention, is not very helpful (this happened in another thread recently too). This is an extremely busy site, the mods aren't on here 24/7, and it is not possible to read every single message within a short time of it being posted. That's why the 'report this post' function is there so please use this method if you wish to bring a post to our attention.
Thank you
