Moderators. A question

  • Following weeks of work, the E-GOAT team are delighted to present to you a new look to the forums with plenty of new features. Take a look around and see what you think!
Can one of the Mods please let me know why my fitness test post was removed please? Happy to go by the rules, but a simple message explaining why would have been nice. I think people would be interested to know about the new RAFFT regime, but playing judge and jury without explanation goes against the what the goat stands for.

Doesn't look removed to me, I can still see it.

Also, a PM to a moderator or admin would have been better than an angry forum post.
 
Hmmm, sounds like a potential techy issue rather than anything sinister.

We will investigate :)

Angry? No tone or anger intended.

I haven't been to work since Weds, but my mate is uber reliable.
Apparently it's been/ being announced that as at 01 June, not before, once you have done your fitness test ( and passed) then you get 12 months before next test. If you get light blue then it's two years. Somebody on here must have heard it?
Apparently it was supposed to come in in May.
 
Sounds like a great thread for rumour control, after all, that's what the Goat is all about :)

We've asked our resident egg-head (TW) to investigate using his super sleuth techno-geek powers. I think we recently did some site maintenance so perhaps that caused the issue.

I've heard it around the bazaars that it may go down the same model as the CDT route. You need to be able to pass the test at any time when called to do so.

I'd heard this as well, but there is a quietly kept secret Human Right, so to do it would need a change of Qrs. Because a change of Qrs needs to go before HM it was kicked into the long grass......for now.
I'm almost a but excited to see this email, DIN, poster or whatever on Tuesday now.
Word is that not as many PTIs will be required, so excess JPANs to areas where they need more pink backsides, seeing as we are fully manned and bursting at the seams!
Seriously though, an interesting development if true, so what's coming?

Evening all...just to put the original thread topic to bed here on the Goat we have been operating an invisible mod'ing policy for some time...it doesn't involve anything sinister it just means that rather than washing our laundry in the open we message you and point out what's gone wrong, how to fix it and where we go from there.

So if you think something's been removed but you've seen no PM it's probably techy orientated so we unlock the Gimp (TalkWrench) and he does stuff...

Enjoy the rest of the Bank Holiday Goaters!
 
Cheers Vim, all sorted and nothing sinister. I actually started swearing at first as it crossed my mind it was a management in confidence heads up, or embargo.
Down south or in God's country this weekend?

absolute rubbish, as i believe you have to do your required phys in works time, how could that work "you have been summoned to pass a fitness test"

Quickly followed by "sod off ive just been in the gym for an hour"
 
It probably wouldnt be quite as immediate as the **** in a pot check. Just worked on the same model. Minimum notice. It's only a rumour anyway
