[I'm glad that an unhinged bully who sent me vile and threatening pms has gone, yes.

I'm glad that a poster who questioned my mental health, my professional capabilities and my honesty for no reason other than I disagreed with her has gone, yes.

I'm glad that a poster who moved on to other innocent bystanders and was rude and bullying to then has gone, yes

I'm glad that someone who accused me of doing something to a long gone poster, to whom I never even spoke has gone, yes.

not proud, no, glad .

I suspect you are possibly the only person who isn't glad. I wonder why?

Of course none of that is inflammatory or untrue is it? Most of what you suggest sounds like a standard thread on TES these days.  How many posts  have I read which accuse others ( just because someone disagrees) of being "bam" or " mental" or " unhinged" or a "bully" ?

But lets conveniently forget how you went from thread to threat stalking this poster with all the above. I have seen it on so many threads concerning this poster. I  have no emotion concerning the banning of the poster concerned. I do have feelings of annoyance about the way in which you (and others I would have to say)  took your argument from thread to thread though. It was not just me who noticed that either. Several posters commented.

"Sit on it",  curlygirly.  (Cor how I have longed to say that[ H]). You will want me banned too no doubt.

I equally support the case put forward that there should not be this apparent discrimination between the  treatment of those who are newer and those who seem established.   The old guard may offer some stability but when they  prevent newer people bringing in ideas,because they do not like change,  then that prevents any kind of dynamic and the place becomes stale, as many forums have become very stale here.

I suspect this is what she'll be saying in her ATM session but IME the TES Maths forum has never been like this. Betamale is a realatively new poster and look how he's been welcomed!

 The problem with weebecka was, in my opinion, the discrepancy between what she posted, what she claimed, and what she reluctantly revealed about her teaching experience.

It may be one thing to fool those with little experience in teaching, but to try it on a regular basis with those who have been teaching in a variety of places for decades was optimistic at best and insulting at worse.

As time went on her posts become increasingly bizarre and obtuse, along with her pronouncements.

Her reasons for posting are her own and her behaviour on the forum may very well have been a deliberate attempt to get a certain reaction for whatever reason.

Ha ha.   That was unintentional but apposite.  The quote should read "I think that it was important ..."
