bully1
ˈbʊli/
verb
past tense: bullied; past participle: bullied

1.
use superior strength or influence to intimidate (someone), typically to force them to do something.


why is it, with all the banter btw me , dedworth, Gwapito, Les none have ever complained about me as much as you have

i dont agree with much of what they post, but we learn to get along..

As per Marco's response in post 16 "The interviewer then pushed her and she just said 200,000." so this can be interpreted as being bullied
The programme HAS (past tense) been aired, the interviewer DID push her (past tense), therefore she WAS pushed or bullied into giving an answer
At what point in your post number 33 did you get the impression that I had accused you of bullying

Perhaps you spend too much time over analysing posts. You have a tendency to reach for the Calculator or now the dictionary to prove somebody wrong. It was just a very interesting TV programme.
I wouldn't know Joe Bloggs if he walked past me in the street but I'm sure many others like me are offended at you questioning his suitability as a Moderator. Joe along with the other Moderators has helped a lot of people myself included on their difficult journey to be with their partners. You're fighting a losing battle on this front so I suuggest you give it up.

Marco, at no point was any question of Joe's suitability or credibility questioned As Rayna kindly pointed out the role of a moderator, maybe I took the term too literally, which is why I said that maybe monitor would be a more apt description.

I took the calculator out to demonstrate the unfeasibility of the nurses claim and not to doubt any members quotes

Anyway, off to lunch now

No offence was intended, and I hope none was taken
