Believe me, it's worth the time spent reading Scylla.

[Scylla]

I'm going as fast as I can and I'm only on page 5

I'm totally out of all loops, it's a travesty >

It's not good is it? I'm also extremely sorry Greenie is also a victim of this particular person. All of it leaves a very bad taste in the mouth.

[rolo]

I've read it. Shocking.

[Perpetua]

Quite horrid Rolo isn't it.

[Lilac]

do i have to register to read it?

[Perpetua]

No Lilac, you can read/post as a guest would on this Proboard as far as I know.

[Scylla]

I thought I had to register cos it came up blank via your link Perpy. Not to worry

Them 20+ pages knocked me right out

... along with the shocking revelations Just goes to show, we don't know who we're dealing with online.

On another eBay topic - Fancy eBay Admin c*cking up the new boards move, and we were all psyched up for the change

Perpy, it's asking me to register.

BTW, I think it would still be useful to keep the eBay e-cig group going. Ebayers might find it when searching groups & then find their way here via it.

Did it? Sorry guys for the misinformation on my part. I thought it would be a similar set up to the Pro Board format here.

It is worth registering just to learn of the duplicity that can happen over the internet - a salutory warning for us all, I'm probably a bit daft and take people at face value rather than suspecting they may have an 'agenda' of their own.

That sounds like a good idea Chris to keep the Ebay group going although there seems to be some confusion over how we actually go about transfering the content of our groups. I've posted on MD's thread on the Star Trek Board.

[Chrissie]

Perpy, is everyone using their ebay ids to register with on that Proboard?

Lol, I've just this minute been reading that thread on the next generation board. I'm in a cat group (plus a private group) with thousands of threads. My biggest worry is the thought of transferring over all the hundreds of pics. From what I understand, the format isn't going to be using HTML so I doubt any of the links to pics will work without changing each individual code

[Perpetua]

They do seem to be Chris, using their Ebay id's that is.

Other than Hanow cos she likes to be different.

Although she has said what her Ebay id is as well.

James seems to be conspicuous by his absence on that thread, dare I suggest it's because Ebay themselves haven't figured out the mechanics of doing any content/member transfer.

Why am I not surprised.

That thread had my head spinning and was shocking, Perpy

Wasn't it just Scylla, I didn't know the half until I read it all.

I wondered where TC had gone - he was always on the boards. Hope he gets his come uppance.
Can't say I am surprised though, I noticed for myself that strange things were happening, then he disappeared. MM
