Martins not running the ads to keep this place open and free for us!! He’s doing it to line his own pockets……kerching!!!
He couldn’t care less about the people in chat and on the boards, unless his pockets get a hole in them that is.
Nothing wrong with making profit is there?
Obviously Martin is supposed to keep this place going for the love of it, drop the advertising and pay for all the hosting and other costs out of his own pocket… :roll:
For the record, although I’m not prepared to click on links and watch videos before entering the chatroom, I have no problem with the advertising; I appreciate that sites like this cost money and either we pay for membership or the revenue has to be raised elsewhere. If the owners of such sites endeavour to make the site available to us free of charge and in doing so make a profit at the same then good luck to them.

I understand that the NHS Trust involved was “supporting” the member of staff.
A breach of confidentiality is gross misconduct and can lead to a member of staff being sacked, as well as a referral to the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), which can result in removal from the register.
She didn’t breach confidentiality though.
“Mrs Saldanha, a duty nurse, answered the phone because it was 05:30 GMT and there was no receptionist on duty.She put the pair through to the duchess’s nurse, who unwittingly revealed details of the pregnant duchess’s medical condition.”
She had not been suspended or disciplined by the hospital but no doubt took a lot of ribbing from her work colleagues and who knows what effect that had.
Let’s hope that the duchess’s nurse, who did breach confidentially, is supported, especially as the Palace have not made a complaint and have apparently offered their support to the nurses and the hospital.

I realise it’s not a clear comparison, but blaming the DJ’s for this is kinda like blaming a train driver when someone throws themselves under their train. How could they have known the events that would occur as a result of their prank. The prank would have been forgotten about within a few days, and I thought the prank was actually quite funny.
I disagree. The train driver hasn’t acted in a way that has pushed someone over the edge, whereas the DJs in question have. They couldn’t have known how it would end, but neither do any of us in our daily interactions with people. Given that 1 in 4 people will be suffering mental illness, you never know when that unkind word or nasty comment, whether in real life or on a message board or chat room, might be the last straw for the person it is directed at. Likewise you never know when that kind word or offering support may save someone’s life.
It was a childish prank that went wrong. I hope the presenters that pulled the prank will not be hounded though, as sad as the repercussions are, they don’t deserve that.
A woman has died just a few hours ago and you make a joke of it…tacky and tasteless [-(
