There seems to be an enormous amount of unauthorised advertising and naming and shaming going on at the moment. I know that moderators can't be everywhere at once, twenty four hours a day and seven days a week, but a lot of it is several days old and often even the title gives it away. To make myself clear, I'm not against any of the above in principle, as it can be useful. I do however understand why the rules exist and for that reason I abide by them, which makes it quite frustrating when others totally ignore them and there appears to be no action taken. Is this a conscious move to become more liberal, in which case I will take advantage and perhaps do a bit of advertising myself when the occasion arises smile, or is it simply a case of reduced vigilance because of resources being stretched? Certain sections seem to be moderated quite tightly, while others seem to have little if any moderator presence.

Fair enough Al, but I spend more time on my mobile than on my PC and there is no report facility on that.

I'll try and get the techies to look into it.

Perhaps they could facilitate the deleting of posts from mobiles too, as it's usually a mobile phone double post that most people want to delete, but you can only delete from a PC.
