Fiona - this thread should be a "sticky" at the beginning of this forum and changed each month. Me and Mike and other people have worked hard to get "holiday truths" a meet where members can meet each other and have discussion about Goa, a laugh and a good night out and at the same time we do advertise your site (without us all you would not be there and you would not be a mod).
So what do we do to make this happen?

This thread, as I said on the first post here, is for names and dates only. Any discussion is for the main meets thread.
By the way, the mod's position( written a year ago)
is voluntary and unpaid.
without us all you would not be there and you would not be a mod
Excuse me, how very very rude. If you didn't have our site you couldn't arrange you meets!!! Its a two way relationship. We aren't that keen in allowing meets to be organised via our site but we allow it as our members enjoy it, but it is modded so that we can keep an eye on it. Fiona does a bloody sterling job modding this forum and she would be a mod here with or without the Goa forum.
I am very annoyed, so much so I cant type properly

I second everything that has been said by Sarah.

Lassigirl, Fiona is so upset and angry and exsasperated that shes gone off line to calm down. I am sure she will read your pm when she comes back online.

Well I too am speechless. HT doesn't revolve around the Goa forum. Fiona would certainly still be a mod with or without Goa and its members.
What your point is I cannot really understand, but please do not have a 'pop' at Fiona who I happen to think is a brilliant mod.
I am sure most others will agree with me in saying you owe her an apology.
Fiona is a fabulous mod we are so lucky to have her as our mod in the goa forum
no we are privileged to have her
no we are privileged to have her
Ditto to the above comments, Fiona has always been a fair and hard working mod, we are lucky to have her, she is mayby not so lucky to have us,
It is lovely to read such supportive comment for Fiona, who deserves every one of them.
Thanks Fiona
Now- is anyone planning on going to the first meet in Calangute- is it too early for most members? I am happy to pm Terry and make it a later date.
Ps
I have read the pms and will respond tomorrow. They made me cry- you are all fab and have reminded me why I love being the Goa mod

The way the flights have been messed about I am not sure there will be many people here for the 2nd November but you will just have to keep an eye on the November thread, I think.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN SO MANY MODS ON ONE THREAD !!!!!
To be honest Mike, we are a tight team. As admin, Kath, Glynis and I stand by our mods 100%, we know what a great job they do for very little thanks most of the time. We all support each other. Our aim on this site is to help people, infact we spend upto 40 hours a week, unpaid helping people, so I suppose when comments like Narial made are posted about one of our hardest working mods, we react.
Fiona has very graciously given Narial the benefit of the doubt, thats her lovely personality. I can only strive to be as gracious as she is.

Couldn't have said it better myself Sarah!
"I HAVE NEVER SEEN SO MANY MODS ON ONE THREAD !!!!! "
Perhaps we should get up a team of 'Rockers' and meet them head-to-head on Brighton Beach ??? Sting could be our leader !!!
Joking aside, I think this has gotten slightly awry and potentially embarrasing in one way or another, for both parties concerned (Fiona and Narial). The problem with the written word is that individuals interpret it as they see fit. Narial may not have typed it in the manner that it comes over as.
Whatever the weather, I'm sure both Fi and Narial can sort this out, without others demanding apologies. Dont get me wrong, I can well understand the reasons why the other Mods have posted their support, but this can also come across as a tad intimidating.
Fiona and Narial, I'm not demanding any apologies, just that you make up and crack on with your good work on this forum. Life's way,way,way too short to be falling out over a 'meet' in Goa.
Well said Knobsy! Totally agree.
