'Fraid so. :biggrin:

Just annoys me when people have genuine health/relationship concerns and we have someone asking about smells. Sorry, didn't mean to snap. :p:

Ooh, you act apologetic, then neg rep me.

Subtle.

Alright....i'll be the first to actually post on topic. Fragrances smell different on people and some will suit you more than others; so there isn't a definitive answer. But if you'd like to know, the 2 largest selling fragrances in the UK are Jean Paul Gaultier: le male and Joop if that is of any help.

Congratulations. This thread isn't on the topic of this forum, though. You're being counterproductive.

Well you know what....if it bothers you so much report it to a moderator instead of taking all this effort to whine how it's in the wrong place. Be pro-active or be silent.

How the hell does that help? If I report it, the mods have to move it, which makes more work for them. Then the OP complains, which makes even more work for them. Then another new person comes along and posts about perfume in health and relationships instead of fashion and beauty or wherever it should be, because they don't realise it doesn't belong here because no one is setting any strict rules for this forum and there are no examples, like this one, of threads that shouldn't be here. :confused: Removing the threads might make it look nicer but it doesn't help in the long run because more will sprout.

Really, we need a more active mod team, or better-defined rules in H&R.

The fragrance of, you know, personality. Might just be me, but I would select a boyfriend more on the grounds of his personality rather than the smelly crap he's put all over himself.

Besides, anyone I like automatically smells great. :p:

It's their job to do that and you can't expect them to read every single thread - they do sometimes need our help.

The OP apologised and is fine with the thread being moved to the relevant sub-forum.

Why would someone else come along and do the same thing? Perhaps they can use their judgement and place it in a more appropriate sub-forum. If you leave this one here then it just lays down the foundation for more frangrance related threads in H&R.

So are you saying you want it moved or not? Moved: report, Not Moved: no need to reply again about how relevant this is in H&R.

That's why I report posts.

Then neg repped me, clearly thinking he was going to be anonymous. So he's obviously not 'fine' with it.

You tell me. But I see them popping up every day. Can't just keep reporting for ever. :/ It gets tiring after a while... probably more so for the mods. We need a better system to be put in place, or more obvious rules.

I want one better. I want this to be removed, or moved, or whatever, and I want it to be obvious to everyone who posts in this forum that such threads should not be posted in here again. Must admit, this almost looks like an acceptable thread, when you look at some others in H&R. It just slipped the other side of what I feel is acceptable in here, but many other things in H&R quite obviously aren't H&R issues either. It's no good just moving them, we need something better. :confused:

How do you know it was him? How do you know it wasn't me or anyone else who viewed your post. Unless you've calculated out how how many rep points they can give and how many you've lost or you're a subscriber then you don't know for certain that the negative rep was from the OP.

So what you're really saying is you don't agree with the moderation in the H&R sub-forum and you're jumping on this thread to try and make an example. In that case you should be consistent and proceed to complain in other threads that aren't relevant to the H&R sub-forum, or you could discuss your moderation qualms with the moderator.

I disagree with the posters in H&R. I think the moderators do a good job, just an infinite (not to mention incredibly inefficient) one. As long as TSR is up, there will be people posting crap in H&R, as it is now. If the rules were made clearer, people might just stop posting rubbish. I have taken this and many other things up with the moderation staff and very little has been done although changes have been promised. But it's all very vague and, to be honest, I seriously doubt even they know what the changes will be.

Still, you must agree with me, simply deleting every crap thread that ever arises will be a neverending job, and hence not one that should have to be done.
