In my opinion some of the search are confusing and a total waste of time. 

I'm sure most would agree that the a typical CL can be assumed to provide a welcome to adults/children and dogs so filters should be used when this assumption is incorrect;

Adults Only    Children, for whatever reason are not allowed - no problem with this filter.

Children welcome   What on earth does this mean? - are they especially welcome?  If this is not highlighted do you get no suggestions, or those who don't like children but will put up with them. Removal of this filter would make more sense.

Dogs welcome  Again this makes no sense as I'm sure failure to highlight this in your search would make no difference. Much better to change this filter to No Dogs.

Coarse Fishing within 5 miles     Would this not apply to the vast majority of sites as fishing can be found in canals/rivers/streams/ponds etc. It may be more beneficial if the distance was reduced to say 2 miles

    It would be nice to know. 

    If people aren't told, how can they be expected not to repeat the 'crime'? frown

    It seems that something "strange" is happening on CT and I'm going to give it a miss till we have an explanation from the Community Manager.

    Sometimes it shows 'Content removed' when it's the OP who has removed their own (duplicated?) post rather than censorship by EG.

    I agree with your suggestions Ovaltineys. The 'Dogs/Children Welcome' (Adults only' is fine) and 'Fishing within 5 miles' (Really?)options are marketing/promotional features and only add ambiguity when searching.

    Mine answered the OP and suggested that filters to exclude features would be useful. It was mildly critical  at most. 

    I really don't think it should have been Deleted User and I'll be emailing to say so

    What on earth happened here? I looked in on this post and the only thing on it was the Opening post, no replies even though the front page indicated that JayEss had replied, so I clicked on her name on the front page and got a post from JayEss saying her post had been Deleted User!

    This website would try the patience of Job.

    It's hardly worth the effort of trying any more. The site is clearly unstable and unpredictable. I could say a lot more but there's no point.

    I think this is the first post I've had Deleted User. If I'd known I was going to be Deleted User I'd have been more controversial. 

    I've reported the thread as I can't report my own post

    They were certainly defeated.smile

    Clearly the deleter had no idea what was going on. I think it's time to give up trying to help CT/CC. 

     

    By the way, this thread has reproduced itself in part.

     Seems to be an awful lot of 'comments removed'

    Can I get onto page 1 wonder? Well here goes.

    No it just goes straight to the other posting with the same title. What a load of rubbish!!

    Good luck with the reporting! I did it this morning with no results! I have found clicking on the date and time of last post works best, but still looks like two threads merged.

    Thanks TW, but it's not produced any results as far as I can see. Isn't that a surprise!!!

     

    Just tried to open Pg 1 and I get transported back to the other posting with the same title, so now't changed!!
