I am always amazed when responses like the one you got come up.

I think the clue is in the title,ANSWERbank! This site is not called HIntbank or ClueBank! People are not obliged to join!

I for one enjoy the Sat Tel Cryptic Crossword but it normally takes me a whole day to complete - I still use Answerbank but just don't click on to the relevant postings until I'm stuck.

It will be a pleasure to help you any time Dottie B
Question Author
teacher 1- have you seen my reply from the offender? Dottie.
Maybe a refugee from more 'serious' sites where there is often a convention (universally observed) that the answers to prize crosswords, etc, are NEVER posted until after the closing date.

Childish !!!!!!!

Somebody said it to me, so I'll say it to somebody else to get my own back !!!!!!!!!

Dottie B. You keep asking any questions at any time you like. There are plenty of us willing to help. Bye for now.
Alibobs (above) has hit the nail on the head! He or she does not click on to relevant postings until "stuck". I, too, adopt the same strategy.
Teach No One (straight from Spys R'Us ?) and several other respondents have therefore missed the point of complaint.
Dottie B - My request to you was not to trawl for answers to the Macmillan Charity Quiz YET repeat YET - I did not ask you nor tell you to not use the Answer Bank at all.!
In this Book Titles Quiz, 5 of the first 8 clues (from a total of 100) were renumbered and posted on AnswerBank without any mention of Macmillan, and this happened within days of the appearance of the Quiz, which does not close for entries until 29th MAY. What was one to infer - not the action of someone who is stuck ?
Finally, we who wish to enter have ALL paid our pounds for this worthy Cancer Charity.
P.S. For 29th May (above), read 26th May !
P.P.S. My user name is "keyboardix" and not "the offender", as mentioned above, and to well-named "Dottie B", Good Luck with your Quiz Entry.
