Hi,



I've been having some problems with the BBC message-board lately.



I've been trying to post a post about some problems at the local CAB.



But the message-board programme just shows an error message,

like this: 'Please choose the region in which you want your message to
appear.'.



But the web-application wont let me choose a region.



The region field is empty.



I'll try to take scree-shot of the screen:





(I'm also going to attach a copy of the screen-shot, in case it easier for
you to view the

screenshot-copy as an enclosure.)



I've tried to use both Internet Explorer and Firefox, to post the message,
but I'm getting the

same problem with both programs.



I've been trying to post this message for about three days now, but I
haven't managed to

get it posted on the message board yet, due to the mentioned problem.



Here is the post, by the way, in case it has occured some problems with the
post moderated

moderation system on the message board, (like I have experienced with your
message board

earlier):



'Lies and 'set ups' at the Liverpool Central CAB.





I've just sent an appeal to the Liverpool Central CAB, regarding the
investigation of a complaint, that I sent the CAB Complaints and Policy
Officer in May.



When I received the answer to my complaint, a few weeks ago, i discovered,
that the CAB General Unit Coordinator, had been lying in the answer to the
complaint.



And it also seems that the Liverpool Central CAB, is envolved in 'set ups'
in which they put very young girls in the stair-case area outside of their
offices, in the State House, (which is an office-building).



And then they keep the lights off in the pulic areas of their offices, while
the members of the public are kept waiting in the dark, for about 5-10
minutes, before most of the meeting is also being kept in the dark. (In
about twilight-strength light, it was to dark to read a regular
information-folder there).



And also the Liverpool Central CAB, has got the wrong e-mail address on
their webpages.



It's says on their website(http://www.liverpoolcab.org) that one can contact
them on this e-mail address:



bureau@liverpoolcab.f9.co.uk



But this is wrong, I had to send the General Unit Coordinator a new e-mail
to get right e-mail address for the CAB, (which was bureau@liverpoolcab.org
).



So I was wondering what other people were thinking about these problems, and
if someone have some advice on how I should go forward in dealing with these
issues.



That is, besides the complaint I've already sent to The Chair, Liverpool
Central CAB:



http://johncons.blog.co.uk/2007/10/27/title~3201650



Because I think this kind behaviour, from the CAB, is totally out of line,
and also disgraceful for an organisation, if it wants to be respected.



So I was just wondering what other people were thinking about this.'.





So, I was wondering if you please have got some advice, on how I should go
forward to sort this problem with

selecting the region.



Also, while I'm writing so to speak, I was wondering if you have had a
chance to have a look at the e-mail

I sent you again on 26/10 yet?



Here is a copy of that e-mail:

Hi,



I was wondering if you think it would be possible for me to get a more

spesific reason on why the post

was removed?

Om meg

Bildet mitt
Overhørte på Rimi Bjørndal, (jeg jobbet som butikksjef/leder i ti år, i mange forskjellige butikker), i 2003, at jeg var forfulgt av 'mafian', mm. Har etter dette ikke fått rettighetene mine, i mange saker. Blogger derfor om problemer med å få rettigheter, mm. Mine memoarer, (Min Bok 1-10), kan også finnes på johncons-blogg, (se: 'Etiketter'). Jeg blogger også om slektsforskning, (etter at min danskfødte mormor, som var etter adelige/kongelige, døde i 2009). Har også vært såvidt innom Høyre/Unge Høyre, i sin tid. Har også studert informasjonsbehandling/IT/Computing, (på NHI, HiO IU og University of Sunderland). Har også bakgrunn fra handel og kontor, (grunnkurs, økonomi med markedsføring og data). Er/var også i Heimevernet, (etter at jeg ble overført dit, etter førstegangstjeneste i infanteriet, (og en rep-øvelse i mob-hæren), i forbindelse med omorganiseringer, i Forsvaret, etter den kalde krigen). Blir også utsatt for mye nettmobbing, mm. johncons-blogg, (og mine memoarer og nettbutikk), er kjent fra TV-programmet Tweet4Tweet, i 2012, (selv om jeg måtte klage, for programmet var veldig useriøst/nedlatende, mm.).
