Great site. Poor Shereen Nanjiani though.

I see the newest, utterly stupid, trick is that if you don't log in to TVF you can't actually read the posts any more.

They're replaced with posts from "Advertisement", for a load of Google CRAP that nobody in their right mind would ever be interested in.

If you try to send a message to them to say how FUCKING annoyed you are, you just get sent to that "Moderating Team" account, as aforementioned, which doesn't accept incoming messages.

I take it this is to TOTALLY get rid of those people who used to read the site, but now can't because they're banned and can't log in.

This is, obviously, the next move in the SADmininstrator's policy of junking all the previously active members in favour of the six-year-olds who are so bloody thick that they might just fall for the advertising.

Oh dear God/Nick! What POSSIBLE use is that aside from trying to reduce database hits from random people coming and going? If nothing else it'll discourage new members!

In which case, maybe it's the best idea asa ever had!

With the utmost respect, Nick, most people don't have an absurd paranoia about the option to remain logged in at all times, which would save you this inconvenience.
