# News from Crossie / Bring him back Mods! Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea
bendigo 08:57 UTC 13 Oct 2007 | Hi all, Have received this message from Crossie, who has now returned to Niue after his cycling tour to the Roff of The World. He sends his best wishes to all, and would like to be back here as "Crossie", but.. "I just went on to the TT after many months of travel. It seems I may have been struck off because my emails have gone unanswered by their adjudication committee. Did I offend? Were my views too political or indeed politically incorrect? Did I cuss too much? Was I using the TT for political ends or was it just theirs or some participant’s perception that I did? Or, Did my Niue tourism buy-line “We haven’t got a clue, but we haven’t got a coup” ring true just too hard.? Yes I suppose all of those but I want my true identity back ie Crossie." I will try to contact the mods (although rumour has it they've jumped ship) - in the meantime, please show your support on this thread, and / or my contacting the mods. Thanks, Rob |
islandboi321 09:06 UTC 13 Oct 2007 | Glad to see you found him, Rob... Good on ya! Now we need to see where "agingaquarian" and "shully" have disappeared to... Our antipodian investigators once again need to be summoned! | 1
ozziegiraffe 10:23 UTC 13 Oct 2007 | Hi, Crossie, A few months ago I got a message saying user names were case-sensitive and updating such things as passwords. I can't exactly remember what I had to do, but I know I can only log on with a capital O - maybe your problem is something like that. | 2
mandja 11:00 UTC 13 Oct 2007 | I vote Crossie | 3
dadams 05:41 UTC 14 Oct 2007 | Another vote for Crossie | 4
decdublin 21:26 UTC 14 Oct 2007 | I don't remember a post that may have offended.... Crossie may have been controversial at times but not offensive and he was always highly entertaining! (and very informative on Nuie) Another vote to bring back Crossie! | 5
watsoff 23:54 UTC 14 Oct 2007 | Bring Crossie back - now. | 6
raro 05:19 UTC 15 Oct 2007 | I agree, never found anyhting offensive, maybe a few nasty words in a couple of posts. The moderators will apparently be changing next week. Let Crossie back in! | 7
bendigo 06:32 UTC 15 Oct 2007 | RomanB has PMed me to say Crossie wasn't banned and has emailed him to sort out his access - hopefully we can hear abou his adventures on here soon. Rob | 8
silvanocat 06:38 UTC 15 Oct 2007 | Heh, I was just going to ask whether Crossie has Caps Lock on. What I want to know is how you all know all this stuff about the moderators changing/jumping ship? | 9
rager 11:51 UTC 15 Oct 2007 | Ban Him Ban Him any one who tries to pushbike up Everest is totally mad. Tis about time he came back we need more niue needle now that auntie bbc owns LP. | 10
raro 13:25 UTC 15 Oct 2007 | 9--Just send a PM to Roman, he usually answers if it's a reasonable Q/request. Not sure what will happen when he is gone, however. | 11
