Hey Medusa just leave Bassett one alone. I have total admiration for a person who uses the forum to advertise a community event. Your reply is pathetic. There are plenty of other threads (in the Eating out section in particular) created by large corporate businesses that are allowed to run threads with hundreds of posts.

 

Well done to all those involved in the Lowedges Festival. 15,000 visitors is incredible. So pleased the weather was good after last year. Good luck in 2016.

 

Would you care to rephrase your critique of my application of forum rules?

 

I'm the forum manager and it is my place to ask people to stop breaking forum rules. As a user you can't see all of the excess posting which has been removed so how do you know exactly how many times one user posted about an event?

 

Please note that if you're going to start an ad hominem attack, that also breaks forum rules.

That must have been some automated process then, because it was not refused by any of the moderating team.

 

It could have been that the post you were answering had been displaying on your computer for a long time, after the server had updated (this usually shows a message that your token has expired) or it could have been one of the anti-spam measures triggered by something in your post, but it was not any sort of judgement on what you were saying, just that something about your post got caught in a glitch.

Oh gosh, this is getting out of hand for silly reasons. I am aware that Basset One has only a basic knowledge of the internet, so to be fair, maybe you are right Medusa, about his lengthy reply being timed out.

 

I don't think Abbyedges was making a personal attack on you, she probably feels strongly that the festival was a huge success for their community and all down to the very hard work and commitment of B1 and his team of volunteers.

 

Perhaps it would be wise to delegate someone else to do your forum postings for next year B1 - alternatively you can make more use of your Facebook page where you can write and respond to whatever you want. I realise you are wanting to inform as many people as you can about what to expect and when and Sheffield Forum is indeed a great medium to get the word out there. Now that the festival is well established, next year it only needs relatively few updates here and you can direct further enquiries to your FB page.

 

From your FB page you can share the information to a whole load of groups that may be interested in attending and your followers can share wider too. We at Save the Children have our own FB page and we shared your event to lots of other groups we network with.

 

To be honest, I think the best bet would be to delegate another person, that is au fait with both the internet and Facebook.

 

Hope you don't mind me sticking my two penn'orth in.
