My comments have disappeared from my answers listing
Previously they remained, but uneditable ( no yellow box) if sift wiped from thread
Nothing confidential in that thread
Question needed to be reinstated not wiped from living memory even if OP throws his toys out after getting a sift warning
The latest anon offering doesn’t even say please or thank you.
I must admit, however much my clients annoy me, they are always polite. Otherwise they wouldn’t be clients.
Does AWeb have such a low opinion of us that they think we are competing for such Anon freeloaders as clients? Beggars belief.
2 more likes needed
It cannot be that difficult
573 views
Allowing for multiples ( I am up to at least 10 now ) surely 2 more can be got
After 10,000 likes we should get a response from the government & after 100,000 the subject should be debated in Parliament.2 more likes needed
WE could even get Marcus Rashford on board.
DJKL, how many laps of your garden do you think you can manage?
Not that many, it is pretty short and narrow (50ft x 15.5ft)and with both a shed and summerhouse at the far end one really cannot do a lap as they are in the way. (The downside of Victorian terraced houses that have been divided and had their gardens split in two, they are not large)
Now if I could get to Sweden it would work as that one is 50 metres by 50 metres (1/4 hectare)) and whilst there are myriad trees near the boundaries, at this time of year I could probably walk round it without getting eaten alive by the insects.
I am actually heading out to my Edinburgh garden right now, no rain for a change, some blue sky and I need to continue getting the summerhouse wind and watertight before winter arrives., so will leave you all to your hard work and revel in the fact that as a part timer I can now do this. (Other half also finishes lunchtime on a Friday so we will soon both be in weekend mode)
Hello all - AWEB recognises that this is an ongoing issue, and as Richard mentioned in a recent thread, our Dev team are working hard on an ongoing function that will prevent editing/deleting original content from posts and comments. It will hopefully be arriving in time for SA season, but until then we appreciate your frustration and are grateful for your patience. Rest assured the feature will be available as soon as possible.
Thank you.
I put the same question to Tallulah via Direct message and have just had this back
''Hi Chesire,
Usually if a post is removed it will be because the original poster has requested it be taken down. I am very sorry for the frustration, and we have taken your comments on board and are trying to figure out a fair way to keep as much original content as we can on the website.
I know some of you are understandably tired of hearing this, but there is a function in the works that will solve the problem of editing - it will be available as soon as possible.
If you have any more thoughts please let me know, and have a lovely rest of your day.
Thanks,
Tallula''
Snowflakes rule!
You are mis-understanding the frustration.
This is a moderation, or rather lack of (consistent) moderation issue Tallula.
Can you please answer the question that TD raised at the opening of this thread, ie why on earth did Sift remove the whole post when Lee decided to delete his opening gambit?
The deletion issue remains and one which is frustrating, but had sift dealt with this with proper moderation it would not be as rife as it is.
Sift were meant to be bringing an edit cut off point, similar to the way their UKBF site works. I think 10 minutes should be sufficient to allow for genuine errors, but no way should an opening post be allowed to be deleted just cos someone chucks their toys out.
But addendums should be allowed. so things can be added by those who have genuinely started an anon post.
Problem Sift have with this site is that the whole set up is totally carp. The way you have to find out if someone has posted something new is so backwards that a 3 year old mustve coded the site.
And how hard can it be to send notifications when someone replies to you? It’s set up for when they thank you.
You can get notifications when someone posts on your thread or follow a thread. I turned them off.
I had to turn off the thanks notifications too, for obvious reasons.

Totally agree, and I've requested several times that threads for new posts be highlighted so we can at least scroll down to see new posts. UKBF manages it very well, even scrolling for you to the first new post in a thread. If they can do it there, why not here?

Remember - posted by https://www.accountingweb.co.uk/profile/markowska031279 the newly set up ltd that was looking to be sold with who takes on the BBL.
Poster account obviously still open.
How many more posts have been deleted?
Why would anyone bother responding is this is what can happen? Come on SIFT, answer
Where's the original question and title gone?
This thread's turned into the White Album (and that sold rather well)!
Apologies for deleting my previous question. My client explicitly requested that I removed it.
Apologies. But thank you for all the advice. I'll try not to overuse the any answers functions in future.
Which question was that? I see it's not the Changing The Name on a BBL question?
You sound very contrite; I do hope you too haven't been hauled over the coals.
