Re: se23.com - an exile from the north speaks out

Baboonery, is that you? One of the more amusing aspects of se23.com is that I get email notifications of posts, even if the poster is in pre-mod. The system seems to generate them before admin decides whether to let them be posted or not. Often I see that a certain person has posted, but their post ...

Re: se23.com - an exile from the north speaks out

Michael,
I'm not saying there's racism on the NIMBY thread. I'm saying there's racism in many threads from several well-known bigots, which goes completely unchecked, yet any opposition to it gets offed for fear of offending said bigots.

The snobbery on the Domino's thread is another matter. It's ...

Re: se23.com - an exile from the north speaks out

I now appear to have been banned from posting on se23.com for having the sheer temerity to disagree with admin's pet racists. We know that opposition to blatant racism is not allowed on se23.com.

My criticisms of the rather unpleasant snobbery on the Domino's Pizza thread will have to remain private.

se23.com is a terrible shame. It could be a great forum, but all the life is moderated out of it, and a lot of senseless bigotry is completely unmoderated. No matter how peaceful an atmosphere you want to create, it is just wrong that people have to think so carefully about what they post, for fear ...

I'm intrigued as to what you'd call it, then. :o A nice long walk? A bus ride (that takes longer than the train)? Going from 100 yards from Forest Hill station to 100 yards from Sydenham station by any means other than the train seems a bit non-obvious to me. It might be a short train ride, but it's ...

Count yourselves lucky.

When I moved into my flat I was told that the Sydenham surgery was the only place in whose catchment area I fell.

I live above the shop next door to Boots. Boots in FOREST HILL, that is. Yes, the ONLY practice to which I can register is a train ride away. Great.
