I have completed the poll . I am now back in Ireland and retired but I lived in the UK for 38 years and most of my family live there. Between travelling to UK and back each year and Canada I am in constant touch with my family. I love doing crosswords and I love this site. Some people are so knowledgeable. It's good to see brains working.

Shouldn't these questions be part of the membership application 'form'?

[DTCwordfan]

Removing jokes that have been up for 7 hours, albeit controversial to some, but not to others, is certainly not going to win you my support. It is pure unadulterated censorship and any more action like that, I shall join Naomi in leaving these fair shores. I did not realise I lived in a country called EGY-UK-PT. Perhaps Mubarak is flying into London this evening to replace Cameron?

[sir.prize]

Pram, toys, throw, of, out

[DTCwordfan]

Look I can do without your cheap shot remarks, sir-prize. It is your sort that drive folk from this site. It amounts to needless attempted bullying - being on this very thread, the Ed can read this.

I raised a legitimate remark about censorship of something that had been up for 7 hours......I suggest a change of Ed went on and what ever you think of the joke, the thread was a valid one. There were folk like you, but also a lot who liked it.

So back off.

[sir.prize]

There was no problem with the joke. The reference to yesterday's crash was offensive.

[DTCwordfan]

many did not think so. Ultimately we can agree to disagree over this.

[sir.prize]

Thanks for the offer DT. But it is unlikely I will ever agree with your motives or attitude.

[NazNomad]

Will you two just get a room ...

[sir.prize]

//. . . any more action like that, I shall join Naomi in leaving these fair shores.//

Do you think anyone cares about your threat - least of all the Ed?

[DTCwordfan]

That is your right and I respect that. I do object to your sniping though and personal comments, they aren't necessary.

[DTCwordfan]

there you go again.

[sir.prize]

Did you say personal comments?

//to be a total p-i-the-a//

Ermmmmmmm!

[society]

Is this a poll to help with the improvement of Answerbank? If so how?

[sir.prize]

Naz -lol

[maggie21]

Why couldn't we the option of all three for the last question.

[maggie21]

'Have'

[vivandorron]

Ed......I am crossword fan (Mail on Sunday etc.) However, the added remarks to your poll have come as something of a sir.prize to me.
