Playing nicely : Fri Oct 09, 2015 9:14 am  
Hello All.

The admin team has received a number of complaints from a number of different people about this board.

In particular, they have focused on the derailment that is ocurring on a number of threads, with posters coming up with the same comments time and again, irrespective of the thread topic.

The issue has also been raised of abusive language, such as 'retard'. Let us be clear – such language is not allowed here.

And behaviour that is considered as trolling or constant derailment can, under the terms of the AUP, be used as grounds to ban a poster.

In order to try to deal with this, you're going to have the benefit of my company over the coming weeks.

As of posting this, nobody has been banned. But that is an option for the reasons cited above.

I'm going to leave this annoucement unlocked.

If anyone has any constructive comments and/or suggestions about this forum, let's have an open discussion here. If you feel that you wish to say something privately, the private message system is available.

But let's keep it civil.

I wish you luck with this one Minty. Unfortunately one of the main protagonists of hijack and abuse has been banned more times than smoking, and keep re-registering under a new alias.
To bowdlerise 'Porridge'; he is an habitual offender, who accepts moderators as an occupational hazard, and presumably accepts banning in the same casual manner.

Seeing as criticism of the architect of Broncos misfortune is now pretty much verboten I'll take my leave for the forseeable future.

I just don't have the stamina of gutters.

Neither rugby league nor London Broncos are subjects that are limited to one theme.

Nor, indeed, is the topic of Broncos' owner "verboten". As with any topic or theme, it is however, not to be deployed in every other thread, as it becomes derailment.

Perhaps you could start a thread dedicated to the issue of the club's management (with constructive criticism) and see if it becomes this forum's version of the legendary Virtual Terrace thread that was Joynt's Voluntary Tackle?

That would also allow you the chance to sound off about the subject (constructively), while anyone who wanted to could easily avoid that topic.

Sounds like an excellent and very reasonable proposal.
Maybe if a poster feels the need to repeat the same contents they could put it in their signature so other posters only need change their forum settings to not display signatures if they don't want to read the same information repeatedly.

In my opinion those who reply to the likes of Gutters and Cowgirl are just as bad as what they are. If nobody replied to their posts they would not get wound up and each and every post would not end up in a slanging match. I understand the meaning of the word forum which means every poster should be allowed to have an opinion on the topic, the word forum does not mean each topic should turn into a personal battle against each other. It is not difficult to put names in the frame who are the main offenders who turn this forum into a personnel slanging match.

Totally agree, on all sorts of levels, wantawin. But human nature is such (and I'm every bit as bad myself) that we let ourselves get caught up in stuff that we'd be better leaving be.
