Dear Sirs,
for the second time in four weeks, today I have not been able to post a comment.
I complained the last time and suddenly, yesterday I could post comments. I did post a few, but I cannot
imagine how any of them could possibly have infringed your Terms and Conditions - or whatever you
call your Censorship these days. For about two hours yesterday, I could participate in the Forums, but
today, that right has again been withdrawn.
Please do let me know what it is that I have supposed to have done wrong so that I can ensure that
I avoid being so evil in the future. My only other solution is simply to remove myself totally from AOL
which would be a pity since I have been loyal to AOL for more than 30 years and have never ever set
out to offend anyone nor have I ever acted as a Troll. The fact that I use my original French ancestral
name should inform you that I have a serious and mature nature - being in my late 70's - so having
recently been criticised for having a "stupid name" by somebody using the name Terry 1 and then
retorting to him that his name suggested chocolate, to which he replied my answer was a "THINLY
VEILED RACIST REMARK" which it was not because, firstly that was not my intention and secondly
Terry Chocolate manufactures: Dark Chocolate, Milk Chocolate and White Chocolate. He also told me he
was going to report me, so if this present situation has anything to do with that incident about three weeks
ago, please also investigate how and why he should have been insulting about my French ancestor, who, for
your information, was a Steward for William the Conqueror in 1088, has 18 families in the UK descended
from him, and his name also led to the development and use of the word Thesaurus.
One final comment on racism. I have worked in 20 countries around the world and have made friends in all
of them. I am not and have never been racist, although I have experienced it myself in other countries therefore
it is something I would never do to anybody. However, I will react when I come across people whom I find to
be distasteful, but this inevitably is based upon the way that they relate and behave with me. I will be nice and
polite to anybody, regardless of their ethnicity, provided they treat me in a similar manner.
I look forward to getting your reply as soon as possible because I do not feel that a loyal customer of AOL
who has never suffered any problems until recently, should be treated in this way. Its almost as if you simply
would prefer customers such as myself, should merely move their business over to gmail. I already do
have a gmail account, so I can do that if you merely wish me to cancel the direct debits you earn money
from on a monthly basis.
