I'm really at a loss why a small cohort of CUK forum users are so persistently hostile to other users here.
We're trying to help you. Though I am reminded of primary school life saving lessons: one can't save a man who does not want to be saved. Let the ****er drown, then drag the body ashore if safe to do so.---

Plus, IMHO, the negative impact of sending a under a small business who's trying to do good by other small businesses would quickly outweigh the negative impact of a comment from a site user.
And I feel like this is cause worth sticking one's neck out for.
But's lets agree to disagree on this, and move on?Comment

Going back to an e-mint legal conference on forums back in the early 2000's a forum where posts are manually checked before posting has a very different set of requirements to one where posts are automatically posted. Equally applying any editoral control afterwards on what is written and posted could open you to problems later.
This is one of those areas where the minutia of how the site works could be very important - blanket statements that it's like Wikipedia only work if it works exactly like that - and there are enough comments here that show that isn't the case.Last edited by eek; 13 January 2020, 11:18.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

I thought the likes of Facebook / Twitter said that they were platform providers and had no control over the content thus getting away with hosting anything people may take objection to.
I suspect the same model could be used here?Comment

And I will repeat this once again, it's not a criticism of the site - it's trying to protect you from upsetting someone who will bankrupt you out of spite or just accidentally.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

eek, appreciated (genuinely) - that's given us a few things to look into.
We don't edit/curate content, so feels closer to wikipedia than el reg. We've just whiteboarded next round of changes - including some community flagging / voting features - perhaps like reddit.Comment
