I noticed a thread today that was reported for the above reason, I expect?
A member had asked for the poster to remove it....but too late someone clicked the button

This thread had been on the boards for a year...so would another hour,day or week matter??

GR can edit threads...but they obviously chose not to, as it has now gone

Nothing much

That's a pity.........

I was the one who asked the lady to remove the DOB's and MMN.........because of the risk of identity theft.

As I said Reggie...The thread was started 23/8/2011 so any identity theft could have happened at anytime in the last year

I was not having a go at you....I was just saying how long it had been on the boards .

Maybe the person who felt they should report it, should have looked at the date of the OP before rr'ing it, as what difference would a day or week make?

GR should have edited the date out....but they must have been too busy to read it I guess :-D
