Well, obviously I didn´t set up the section - but why is it necessary to see all the deleted users? Maybe we can ask for it to be changed to ´Last 50 deleted users´. Is it important you know how many users have been deleted or are you just curious?
Yes, I´m curious.....but I wouldn´t say it is necessary to see any of it, really....
........but if the title for the section says Deleted Users...but it really is the last 50 deleted users, it´s a matter of the accuracy of just what is being presented.
It is the Last 50 Deleted Users, not Deleted Users. FWIW....I was looking for a pattern in the deleted users, but found some of the ones I remembered were not there.

Yes, Alameda. There is some inaccuracy in the title of that page. It only shows the last 50 deleted users.

How absolutely DISGRACEFUL! What a travesty. I am leaving now to write to my local MP about this outrage!

"Yilgun - Why have you started using what we in Britain call ´the Royal We´ when posting or replying to posts?"
This is a very important question!
Reply:
In Turkish language, in Turkish culture, we like to say "We".
Because "I" is a selfish, very sincere, rude, simple, smart aleck, ignorant and childish word in general.
But "We" is a respect, polite, social, meaningful and properly word.
For an example, a king, a princess, a leader, a president, a prime minister, a formal personality, a very sincere person, a very sincere friend, a relative, of course can use "I" instead of "We", according to customary observances and Turkish culture.
There is a difference between "I" and "We".
And as you know well, in Turkish language, there are two important words, act of addressing :
1-Sen
2-Siz
Sen= It is a rude, a sincere, a childish, an ignorant, an informal, an impolite and a simple word in Turkish language and Turkish culture.
Siz = It is a polite, a formal, a respectful, a courteous, a meaningful, and a thoughtful word in Turkish Culture, in Turkish Language.
There is a difference between "Sen" and "Siz".
For example, we address as "SİZ" to our teacher, our boss, a foreigner, high level persons and old persons, like "EFENDİM".
This is a traditional, real Turkish Culture, real Turkish Language.
But I don´t know, maybe "SEN" and "SİZ" are same word in the western languages?

Long answer - thank you. But you are talking about addressing someone as ´you´ and the polite versus impolite way of doing so (and you are right there is no ´formal´ and ´informal´ ´you´ in English). But I call my friends ´sen´ and they have never called me rude, impolite, childish or ignorant. My question was why do you refer to yourself in the plural? ´I´ or ´Ben´ is first person singular, ´We´ or ´Biz´ refers to more than one person.

Barba_mama - so? Have you told him about your doubts concerning his fatherhood?
YES, I did... in a very careful way. I said that people were saying this about him... first reaction was "let people talk"... Okay, so my next response was "but what do you think about the content of their talks?" His reaction was "If I am the father or if I am not the father of these children...this will be a secret"
I know...strange reaction....
The latest gossip in town is that he is married for the mosque (not legally) to the baby-mama... this gossip reached me AFTER I already told him But he did not confirm or deny this gossip to me... oh well, some people really have a gift for making life messy

For LİR:
You are right about that.
Yes, I sometimes am writing as plural - not singular like a king, like an expert - in the name of my friends. It refers to more than persons.
Turkish and English are different languages.
Yes of course, you should call your sincere and close friends, your family members and your relatives as informal "SEN, O, BEN , etc) singular.
