Bailiff Threads

Re: Bailiff Threads

I think one of the points being made is that your (one's) argument is weakened by overstating it over and over and over again - if everything is expressed in extreme expletives then there is no expletive available for the worst case.

Not that I'm not in agreement with the sentiments.

Re: Bailiff Threads

I think one definition is someone who disrupts the purpose of a thread, which is somewhat confusing to me as I seem to be one off the few actually supporting the contentions made by the originator of this thread.

Still all debate is good, or so I have always been lead to believe.

Apologies, andy58, I was honestly just trying to lighten things up a bit.
I didn't mean any offense, & fwiw, I can see your pov

Re: Bailiff Threads

OK then just plain civility, name calling is never productive in my experience it only makes a bad situation worse.

Talking of name calling, are you not a previous banned LB member called Gravytrain with a new username :noidea:

I could be wrong but I'm not often wrong :wink:

Re: Bailiff Threads

No your not wrong, it should really be no secret I PMd Sapphire some days ago and told her. I also reminded her that i warned about Eloise and that I was gratified to see that my warnings about her were absolutely justified.( but did not stop me getting banned for them).

I suppose that some mileage will be made of the fact, but really it makes no difference to this issue.

Re: Bailiff Threads

Can I ask why you keep coming back under different names? You start off ok for a while then some sort of brainstorm happens and you become offensive,argumentative and cause the Admin (Cel & Sapphy) nightmares till the eventual ban happens.
I think everyone knew who you are straight away this time.
and 'Eloise' is a 'non' subject for discussion so mentioning her will meet a wall of silence.
This is LEGALBEAGLES.....LEGALBEAGLES....NOT CAG,AAD,MSE DWB ...and the hierachy here are:-
CurlyBen
Amethyst
Celestine
Sapphire
Enaid.
The latter 3 are always online at points every single day.
So,,instead of jiggery pokery and all the crappy ways others run their forums why don't you be a productive member of just one :noidea:.....Your advice (which is sometimes good) gets lost amongst the verbal punchups.

Just sayin................

HI Inca

Thanks for the list of the site team, I didn't see your name on there though. so you will forgive me if I don't feel compelled to answer your queries.

Except to say that different user names are a necessity in order to log in if you have been banned, and that I do not intend to disrupt anything just offer advice to the best of my ability.(as always)

Re: Bailiff Threads

Good Evening Folks

I think its time to decide how we are going to deal with the issue of bailiff threads very regularly going off topic, descending into name calling or developing into a Youtube music video fest'.

I think we all believe bailiffs to be a pretty unpleasant, dishonest sector of industry. But until someone comes up with a better system, we are stuck with what we have. So lets try and deal with each case properly rather than engaging in a massive debate about the 'rights and wrongs' of bailiff legislation or the companies themselves. How does that actually help the OP who has a thug due round in 20 minutes?

When someone arrives at LB with a bailiff complaint. There is often a very serious urgency to their enquiries. I think we have all recognised through this thread that we agree the off topic stuff is not always helpful.

I like the idea of an off topic bailiff thread, to 'vent spleen' in. Feel free to continue using this thread if that works. But the main bailiff threads are now going to be subject to higher moderation levels to try and improve our OP return rate (v low).

I would like to hope that you'll all bear this in mind and work with us to improving the area; which would mean we wouldn't have to remove excessive off topic posts or insults. You can still express your thoughts.....but in the off topic thread rather than the OP's urgent bailiff thread.

Many Thanks x

Re: Bailiff Threads

different user names are a necessity in order to log in if you have been banned,

... and are too arrogant or too thick to take a hint.

and that I do not intend to disrupt anything

Yet, intended or not, you invariably succeed.

Re: Bailiff Threads

One for bluebottle, if a bailiff calls at the wrong house as in correct number wrong street, and the local kids decide to give the bailiff a soaking with water pistols, the bailiff calls police, should the children be arrested or cautioned for assaukt on the bailiff with water?

In Brunstroms time in North Wales he intimated if someone reported kids playing with toy guns an ARV would be dispatched and a child may well be shot if they carried a water pistol, as the officer may think it was a real gun

I believe the Chief Constable you mention didn't exactly endear themselves with certain persons at the Home Office over some of the remarks they made.

As regards the bailiff calling the police, just because they took a soaking from some kids armed with super soakers, apart from being told to stop wasting police time, they would look pretty silly and, probably, get their leg pulled mercilessly back at their company's office. Only a police officer who had had a sense of humour by-pass would take any action against kids firing super soakers at a bailiff who was where they should not be. Most police officers I know would probably pee themselves laughing.

Same end result for the policeman then - they still end up wet!

If you want to look at it that way, yes. Can't say the same for the bailiff, though.
