But the real reason you opened the thread with its original title was to make people think it was another type of scam involving Virginmedia staff until they clicked the link.

Those people were rightfully prosecuted because scams such as this increase my insurance premiums.

You will find that some people will just use this as another reason to say things about members of staff and that we are all tarred with the same brush, but that is exactly what you wanted to happen.

We the Virginmedia Staff that offer help on here find that when people post threads such as this intentionally to mislead people then begin to wonder why do we bother any more.

Moldova, you do not need to offer help to anyone, this is apparently a forum that has nothing to do with Virgin Media, Correct?
So dont get uppety when people still know that the bare bones of Virgin Media is still NTL.
What's the issue?
There will still be former NTL staff working for Virgin Media.
Paranoia of the highest order me thinks Moldova.

So would you find it better if staff did not offer that help because the name is different ?

I think it's more to do with the paranoia of we the Virginmedia Staff that offer help on here find that when people post threads such as this intentionally to mislead people then begin to wonder why do we bother any more. :)

Not in the least bit paranoid I just dislike certain people posting threads with an agenda in mind, also be aware that this was not the original title as I reported it on first viewing due to the wording.

The have been many threads started by the OP all with agendas in the hope of getting a reaction, but in this case the majority of posters in this thread have answered in a negative vein against the OP.

I also did not find it surprising that he could not face up to that criticism.

As I have said previously in this thread I have never worked for NTL so those people have nothing to do with me, plus the fact that the original offences were commited in 2005 well before any merger and change of name.

This quote above is quite wrong as Virginmedia is an amalgamation of 2 distinctly different companies, one being NTL and the other being Telewest and both companies operated on 2 distinctly different platforms, so try not to make sweeping statements about something you obviously have no idea about.;)

The original title was 'Virgin Media staff involved in scam'

You seem to thrive on getting others to turn against me for something you don't like or approve of.

I volunteered to kill myself. what more do you want?

I feel I have to make this post in response to the criticism and accusations made by the OP.

I know and I reported it as such due to the wording which appeared very misleading as it never mentioned what the scam was which causes people to make assumptions before clicking which is wrong in my eyes.

As I have said previously I have never been an NTL employee so I do not care what happened to those people as they deserved to be caught and sentenced.

What I disliked was the original thread title which gave an initial wrong impression as to what the thread was actually about, but you knew that.;)

We are bored. you are boring us ;)

VM staff are still included in the title. how is adding what the scam is making you feel better?
you still read either the quote and/or the link to find out it was only a few employees that were involved in the scam and not all.

Can we have a sweepstake on who gets the last word before the thread is closed?

I agree and its nice to see someone passionate about the company they work for. Maybe you've both had your say now though :D

If you are finding this thread boring then ask for it to be closed.

As the thread is still open let people decide if they are bored as they will vote by not entering into any further discussion.

I've asked nicely. I've asked not so nicely.

Now I'm telling you.

Discuss the topic, drop the bickering, or start to receive infractions.

I hope that's clear enough for everybody.
