Arg! I copied the whole message. My client sometimes does stupid things.

Sorry it did not come through the first time.

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.

OK

That was the message sent from Apple with their standard routine bollox!

*I want to know what nerve my question touched*.

There was NOTHING "inappropriate" about my question. (Or do you think
there was?)

Someone notified Apple that that 'WhiterThanWhite' - who asked the
question on the ASC - was actually me.

There is no way to challenge an arbitrary decision made by those running
the ASC forums. Even Apple Support advises folk to simply reinvent
themselves under a new Apple ID and carry-on-regardless!

Please give them a ring yourself and ask Apple Support about the ASC
forums and let us know what they say over there in the USA.

Thanks.

I did indeed. I'm not hiding anything!

I have also explained that BDAqua, a major player on the ASC forums,
TOLD me to reinvent myself under another Apple ID.|
Apple Support - by telephone - also told me the same thing.

How is calling Apple Support on the 'phone going to hassle anyone on the
ASC forums?

They make up their own rules, Snit.

Apple should make the rules - and Apple should moderate the ASC forums.

Apple do NOT moderate the ASC forums.

If you don't believe me, ask the question on the ASC forums!

That is not correct.

I suggested that you 'phone Apple Support and ask if it is OK for you to
reinvent yourself under a new Apple ID in order to gain access to the
ASC forums.

That was the message sent from Apple with their standard routine bollox!

*I want to know what nerve my question touched.

There was NOTHING "inappropriate" about my question. (Or do you think
there was?)

Someone notified Apple that that 'WhiterThanWhite' - who asked the
question on the ASC - was actually me.

There is no way to challenge an arbitrary decision made by those running
the ASC forums. Even Apple Support advises folk to simply reinvent
themselves under a new Apple ID and carry-on-regardless!

Please give them a ring yourself and ask Apple Support about the ASC
forums and let us know what they say over there in the USA.

Thanks.

Get involved in your battle with them. But you already said they said it was

You did speak of third parties.

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
