I thought, for want of anything else to do after being banned from the Beeb for not lying down doggo in the face of former social media executive (now 'accountability executive', go figure) Nick Reynolds, that I'd start a thread to make any complaints to the BBC moderators explicit, since so many others do it in secret, and I can't 'fess up to it on the boards. I'd like a successful complaint against Johnbee, for falsely accusing people hating on non-white people in The BBC (don't talk about Radio!) to also be taken into consideration. I'm also fairly sure it was 'magificentpolarbear' I reported before that for linking to another thread by OP langustine when it was nothing to do with the topic, and everything to do with encouraging posters to 'hate' on him (it's always educational to see how quickly the arbiters of responsible discourse on the boards display the beam in their own eyes).

After the vertical demise of Nigel, there seemed to be a large number of people posting here who said they were never going to post again, or listen to the Archers, or even more puritanical self-denying ordinances. What happened?

Reason for complaint:
Once again 'off topic' and 'personal attack' (the latter falls slightly short of abusive, but there is certainly no place for it in an OP, and the former applies because the topic should be transferred to The Bull, as even some defenders of the 'I'm starting a spat' thread said would have been reasonable for that discussion)

For the record, before it became 'Hidden' (and it may still be that the mods will give the post a green light, as it's only 'temporarily hidden' at the moment), the thread title was 'What happened to the boycott', which I thought was excessively sniffy. Plus, I certainly didn't say I would never post on DTA but, as others have said on the thread, would not listen anything like as regularly as before. Even now, it's still not compulsory listening for me, any more than the average fender bender compels one to sneak a look while driving by.

I still keep tabs on it partly in the hope of some crumb of acknowledgement that the 'Fall from the House of Nigel' was a misjudgement, but no sign of it so far...

On the off chance that anyone from DTA reads this, yes Nemo399, reporting the OP might seem excessive, but it has been amply demonstrated on the BBC boards that one person's 'innocuous' is another's 'deliberate disruption'. To me, the question smacked of that 'clique' that poured vitriol on any criticism of SATTC in it's aftermath. If anyone wants to communcate it to Tayler, Bernard can have the 'benefit of the doubt', and I'll try to redress the balance later on...
