The cite was "go look it up in Companies House records".
Reasonable enough, one would have thought, for any one with the wit to do so and for those who do not make a career out of standing on their dignity.
Do you seriously believe that CH records will change just because you wish to be a stickler for arbitrary rules on a small forum ?.
Nah! It's there for all to see.
In this instance you lose and make yourself look somewhat petty minded and unwilling to accept you have lost.
I was unaware that some see the forum as a game with winners and losers. 😊 But there you go.
However if that is how it is viewed ~ all games are played to rules governing all players.
Forum rules as well as I would think, good manners, require statements posted to be supported by a cite. It isn't too difficult to achieve if one puts one's mind to it and it is for the poster to supply one supporting the post at time of posting.
If he or she neglects to do so and a cite is requested ... it is not for other members to have to take time out to search for it, it is for the poster to do so. As was done in this instance.
