MOD SPEAKING: I'm sorry Sue, this is a totally unsuitable posting for this forum.

But, in the spirit of kindness, I suggest we can leave this up a few days, but after that it will be deleted.

[Sue Towers]

Really? wow. "totally unsuitable"? "Spirit of kindness" would be to leave it for all to see and share.
But I tell you what delete the post I wouldn't want to upset anyone.

I'm sorry but I hope you never have to try and find someone who has gone missing.

PLEASE DELETE THIS AS IT@S NOT ALLOWED>

Thank you BTS for your help.

Sue,

I am sorry to have not appeared more compassionate and supportive. I wish you to know that i understand your desire to find him. I hope he is found very soon.

My point was that this important search has no clear links this hobby forum - i dont know how you are associated with the BTS, and you have never seemingly posted before on the forum.

I perhaps should have said, however, that as a forum moderator, I suggest we can leave your post visible a while, until hopefully he is found safe and well.

Sue I do not think that Stuart was being insensitive. Our biggest problem is that we are constantly attacked by spammers and whilst I have no doubt that your request is a genuine one you would be surprised at some of the things people say and do on forums. Of course we wish you well and hope you have every sucess in your search.
