    I noticed that jonathanc doesn't post any more. That's a shame as he was really hot on consumer law and could cut to the chase very succinctly.

    Yep the good old days are long gone, I log in occasionally now, really just to see who has either been banned for no reason, or to see who is left from the old school members, It is quite sad really, PC gone mad to tick boxes, what a legacy we're leaving eh guys?

    @Wayners seems to be MIA. Is that since Nanook got the wrong end of the stick over something or other?

    A month or so ago, i got a message from @woodbutcherbower on the FOG site. He asked me to message admin on here to see if they would reinstate his account, which of course i did. SF didn't even give me the courtesy of a reply.

    When I moaned about @Wayners for getting the wrong idea on a thread awhile back, I did not mean for him to be banned.

    He is an invaluable member of the Screwfix Community Forum and does not deserve to be banned just because we fell out that one time.

    That was not what I wanted.

    Please reinstate @Wayners

    There seems to be a lot of good members missing.

    Not surprised, certainly miss woodbutcherbower, a great mistake by the moderators.

    I can only hold my hands up about @Wayners.

    I didn’t understand why people were having a go at me about him, then tonight I did a deep search and saw he went because of me and him having a fallout.

    I don’t get why they banned him though?!? He didn’t swear, he didn’t call me names... it seems over the top.

    Saying that, i’ve just returned myself from a week’s suspension for being unfriendly...

    Haven't seen @BiancoTheGiraffe either, and his tag doesn't seem to work.

    Peeps are dissapearing like the Bermuda Triangle.

    If his tag isn't working that means 'Exit stage left'. :confused:

    Elon Musk is doing a good job of inviting and reinstating people who were once banned for having the wrong opinions on Twitter.

    Perhaps it is time Screwfix started to take a leaf out of the Free Speech Book.

    I believe they should.
