It's good to have focus though and yes, we are nearly there.<br /><br />I like the idea of a timer for us too!! Especially of a night when the hours tick away and it's 3am (yes I know!) before I realise it.<br /><br />Our aim from the get-go is to create a site where everyone of all ages is welcome and feels safe. I'm sure we will achieve this.Chocolatierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03739074115234284440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8225052912307387739.post-5912078027488148532010-09-09T17:48:52.384-07:002010-09-09T17:48:52.384-07:00i just re-iterate all the kudos to you BB and CC a...i just re-iterate all the kudos to you BB and CC and TMO!!!!

Hated the thought of loosing contact. <br /><br />As for moderation - I think it's simply a matter of respect. But as Coby said - what I may think is appropriate and not at all offensive may be horribly offensive to some other folk. I was told off on numerous occassions on the old forum - for comments that I regarded as perfectly acceptable. I don't suppose it helps that I have a rather off-track sense of humour - but I will try my best to keep it firmly under control.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08538193854754612532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8225052912307387739.post-73994814108205659392010-09-09T04:06:19.905-07:002010-09-09T04:06:19.905-07:00I am really excited!!

You'd THINK we could all behave, but the past showed me that what one person thinks is acceptable another doesn't. I didn't mind the moderation (hardly effected me to be honest), and please remember it was the forumers themselves who caused it to become completely focused on food and Nigella. Originally we *could* talk about anything we wanted. I really hope I am proved wrong as I do enjoy the return to the day-to-day natter:)Cobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07730025899595026688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8225052912307387739.post-8702634180469309202010-09-08T23:47:31.934-07:002010-09-08T23:47:31.934-07:00Aussieman. yes the water problem has reversed........Aussieman. yes the water problem has reversed......up to their waists these days......as for your book I am spending my pennies on Jazz records these day.

Ms 'Cakes', that flood sit...Hi Danielle. <br /><br />Ms 'Cakes', that flood situation in Victoria is still looking awful.. I was just watching on the news that the levy around one town may break soon. One long drought followed by one shocking flood. Is there any middle ground for our poor old rural towns? <br /><br />Is anyone talking about the new book in a truly positive way? Mine should be here next week. I also pre ordered on AmazonUK. Not happy if there are errors that we are not going to be told about. I really admired the fact that on the previous site, Ms Lawson listed the errors to be corrected in each book. Oh well, maybe they will put the corrections on the new site once the 'release' publicity is over. That could be a while. Anyway, what is for dinner?

I think most of us have been posting long enough to know we can have a safe, appropriate and pleasant wander off topic to add interest to what we are saying. I agree with others that we can self moderate fairly well. I agree that there is certainly an enthusiasm, honesty and free spirited approach in this forum. I am sure it can stay that way. Just had some market bought strawberries and paw paw.

I often posted a food related item in response to you and would only 'mention' the weather where I am or something else a little bit 'chatty' and the posts would never appear. If I said something like, "Hi Cakes, I made those biscuits yesterday and they were great. It is a beautiful day here in paradise, the sun is shining. Happy cooking. (A post like that sometimes never appeared on the forum and I did receive the odd email to 'correct' me. The WM were always polite and always helpful but at times I did feel that I could not make certain comments that others could. I was a little perplexed by this. But after reading a lot of posts on the new forum, I see that many others had posts blocked.
