OH MY GOD THERE'S RUMORS BEING SPREAD IN MILES CITY.

I heard a rumor that a rumor is spreading around. Is this rumor true or is it just a rumor that the rumor is just a rumor?

I heard a rumor that it was true, but then I heard a rumor that that was a rumor.

REMOVE THE THREAD??????

REMOVE THE THREAD????

Man, this is the kind of stuff I'm hoping for every time I log on here. Don't remove it, instead honor it with a hall of fame or something where the only allowable posts would be those intended to further agitate the parties involved.

Remove the thread. For crying out loud, I read it and thought Christmas came early.

Rumor has it that this should be stickied somewhere.

Laura: Stop e-mailing me (8 times yesterday) and spamming the place up with your repetitive posts (17 in the last three days).

I have more important things to do than run around cleaning up your messes. I already devoted time to something similar, per your request, once before and am not eager to repeat that again. What you are accomplishing is creating a very visible mountain out of a molehill, which in order to fix, will require censoring or deleting swathes of messages, which affects the integrity of the site.

By the time you contacted me asking for me to remove your posts, Google and other sites had already copied, cached and archived them. You can't just put the genie back in the bottle. Think before you post something publicly and we would not have this problem.

Repeatedly harassing me does not raise the priority of your issue. What it does is raise the priority of me fixing the "gag account button", which I broke a couple nights ago updating code on the site.

If this still needs attention after other items on my to do list are resolved, then I will tend to it. Until then, chill out.

Okay, I deleted the 234-**** phone number from where you posted it 6 different places in 2 different threads (!!!), and tossed another into purgatory. That's going to have to be good enough for now.

Leave a classified ad alone and it will quickly fall down the list and go away after 30 days. Have a fit about it and you just bring the issue you are attempting to quell to everyones attention.

Wouldn't it have been easier to just delete the entire thread rather than go through and erase phone numbers?

Just sayin'

To delete, no.

To move to purgatory, yes - but then other people who posted replies would want to know why they have messages in purgatory.

Hmmm... a windows guy sending messages to purgatory. Why that is downright... "mac" cabeeian.

Thank you for deleting the person's name and phone number from the post. I will be very careful in what I post and my New Year's Resolution is to mostly just read posts on milescity.com and not make comments. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Whoa! I am confused. I did not know anything about button purgatory. When I remove the threads, the buttons fall off. Next time, I will look in purgatory. Thanks for the hint.

OKAAAYYYY!!!!!!!
