I enjoyed reading that thread! it made me smile

But unfortunately It was removed because it was bragging on about Wireless Hacking which is not allowed on the forum m8..

why not just delete the comment on wireless hacking instead of the whole thread.

OK thanks for clearing that up Tee_111

A forum that i mod on if a thread is closed or deleted we must pm the poster/s to let them know why the threads been closed/removed which is basic manners IMO, maybe something like that could be introduced here then i wouldnt of had to start this pointless thread

The opening post was about hacking someone's wireless, that's why.

Normally it would be good manners and done here, but I was still trying to determine how light-hearted the comments about enjoying someone walking out of a window on a tall building were, and whether the poster should be infracted.

Personally, I don't take lightly to veiled threats of violence, but appreciated there could simply be a humour I wasn't tapping into.

Being very busy at the time, therefore seemed better to think about the issue rather than act too hastily, and remove it in the meantime.

There was certainly humour you wasnt "Tapping" into!
I dont think there was any malice involved by JB when he made the comment about SunRise walking out of a window..... at 5000 feet up
Infraction lol
On another note brian, it dosnt matter how many times i sighn in the cookie just wont stick,its been like this ever since the forum merged, im using Firefox, any ideas cheers

It's been a hectic day, and I couldn't concentrate enough on the thread to decide where it was going.

But advertising wifi hacking is probably a big no-no under any circumstances.

Clear your cookies - the forum software was recently upgraded, and it's a periodic but annoying problem that sometimes the new cookie won't rewrite over the old one the browser has cached.

That should hopefully help.

May I just say thanks to people who have replied on this issue.
First and foremost I meant no malice whatso ever to SunRise, I was just having a bit of a laff and a bit of banter, obviously I mean no death wish to SunRise or anyone else, it was just a bit of plain banter and fun and winding Sunrise up, that's all it was.
Regards the wifi hacking then I don't agree to this, my neighbor said I can use her feed, I'm no free loader and I am giving her sometthing each month towards the cost, how can this be illeagal sharing someones feed if they aggree to it.
Intenet caffes do the same thing don't they!!!.
Once again I'm sorry if I offended Sunrise or anyone else on this thread, yer all know what I'm like, when things are getting boring then I start a thread to have some banter and fun.
Love Jam xxx
