I posted a GMEB thread at 03:16 today. Some 18 minutes later a duplicate GMEB thread was also posted. My thread was later removed.
Spare Ed has already posted:
"Avatar Image ABSpareEditorIn ChatterBank, there can be as many chats as you wish but please do not duplicate any threads. We don't need to have two morning threads and two afternoon threads...19:50 Tue 07th Feb 2023"

Why is consistency not applied?

Is this some sort of bragging rights? //and I had 50+ responses // Yes, well. Twenty of them from "train boy" within 45 minutes?

it was not duplicate different headers... and I had 50+ responses you had only your own derogatory comment
I removed it, Choux. Although your thread was posted first, there were no answers on it, whereas the other one was already into two pages. It seemed the sensible thing to do.
As the Ed has asked, if there's already a morning thread running, please don't post another.
Threads come and go. What is the problem.
I saw the heading of the other thread and it was different and disappeared before I had a chance to read. C'es la vie.
ed actually asked for the titles to be different..they were
This on-going animosity is silly .... and petty.

Ed, my heading was "Good Morning Early Birds (& Later Arrivals) ;)".
Nothing "derogatory" was posted. I await your response, Ed.
agree ..
your comment was choux

Hmm
I seriously think that if a morning thread has already been posted, a second shouldn't be. The nonsense leaves a bad taste whenever it happens - and that is all too frequently. It's a shame you can't all agree to differ about whatever it is you differ about - and just move on. That would be the grown up thing to do.
Good morning oz. How is the wobbly-pop stuff in downupside land? Necessary in hot weather I should think.
This is possibly the first time I've agreed with you Naomi.

I'm not just scared, I'm terrified ;-/

06:51 naomi, that is entirely my point.
Shame winter is closing in LadyJ.
How nice of you to ask.
I am a very nice person, at least in my opinion. i have to count for something surely.
Question Author
naomi, your moderation is inconsistent, see your post at 06:33 and compare with your others at 06:34 & 06:51. Were you showing support/favouritism for one user over another? Someone might view it that way.

I disagree with your statement at 06:39 - I was neither petty nor silly. This thread was raised on a matter of principle and clarity.

naomi24 ‘I seriously think that if a morning thread has already been posted, a second shouldn't be”

But that doesn’t fit with removing the first one. I appreciate that both posts were early and so may not have been spotted by a mod but that is not good.

Do mods work to any shift pattern covering the whole 24hrs?
Choux, if anyone is shown favouritism on this thread, it's you. My criticism is of the second thread posted. When it results in disputes between grown women who should know better over who's posting what should be a pleasant little thread, this on-going feud is petty and silly - but you are of course at liberty to disagree.
