So, best behaviour whilst we begin a purge?

Have to say that it's a start, probably the first visible moderation I've seen in years.

Live at five with Jeremy wrote:I'll say what I want to say thank you very much. MediaPhil is the one who is at fault. I want to discuss the x factor story with people who have background on the story and who yake an interest in the story. Its unfair if members post something they know nothing about as in the case of Virgin MediaPhil who watched a few minutes of Konnie Huq's tenure as Xtra Factor and has the audacity to say she was a rubbish presenter. To form those opinions you have to be informed on the situation you are talking about which I believe he was not in this case.

and it's working so well...

I blame Konnie.

It strikes me as illogical to tar respondents with the same brush as those who cause the trouble.

But for the comments of the original poster, people wouldn't reply. If the thread is taken off course, it is done so by the perpretrator of the objectionable post; with everything else being secondary to that catalyst.

Some might make a wise crack in the process, but generally those who step in do so because they have a basic clue about the right, and the wrong way to behave on the forum.I don't consider myself a trouble maker, but I am known for replying to trolls and turds to put them straight.

Occasionally I would be nice to hear, "yes, thank you gentlemen - the offending poster has been ejected".

Not having a pop at you Bail - I know its a long standing TV Forum rule. Its just not one I can get my head around.

Of course I will comply with your instruction though.

I've RTPd Live at Nine with Jeremy Paxman because it's like talking to a brick wall.

And, it's over. I'll take this moment to say that I probably won't post that much anymore, in fear of being shot down for a weak argument.

I put it to forumers that Konnie Huq must now be referred to as "The Brilliant Konnie Huq" in the style of "TV's Katy Hill"

Further to that, it's continued to be incredibly slow on Orange till this evening and it's now back to normal.

Whilst it continued to be slow on Orange, I tried Sky, BT and N3 (the NHS IP) and it was perfectly okay on those.

I suspect a DNS problem.

Did anyone else on Orange notice it?

Is there any significance of there being a BBC One clock up at the moment? Not quite sure how it ties in with the downfall of TVF... plus it's on a modern flat screen TV?

That is not the only change.
