Why Does rlfans.com allow Trolls to be members? : Wed Jul 17, 2013 3:11 pm  

I would be grateful if the Admin of rlfans.com could advise me why they allow known trolls such as William Eve and Gutterfax to be members of this site.I thought this site was intended to promote rugby league,clearly these two individuals are doing all they can to gain attention and damage the game.Perhaps Admin could view their last 50 postings and tell me what constructive comments either have made.

Why would they have the time or inclination to do that?

If you don't like the posters in question, just put them on 'ignore' in your settings.

I've just looked up your last 50 comments, people in glass houses and all that.

I have done this but I shouldn't have to.

For a forum that has enough rules to stop me posting youtube links, swear words and the like, there is seemingly a blind eye turned on trolling.

They could rename the entire sport that after the way most people have been carrying on this year.

Make a brew. Go outside and drink it. While doing so, look forward to enjoying your next game of Rugby League.

If you feed the trolls they'll come back for more. Posts like Speccy's are manna from heaven for them. Well done.

I don't ever remember the site being here to specifically "Promote" Rugby League, that's a job for the RFL isn't it?

If you mean "Why Does rlfans.com allow people with alternate and negative views to be members as well as positive?" Then I don't think we really need to answer that.

Life comes in Black, White, Grey and all the Colours of the rainbow, so does RLFANS.COM and it's users.
