Them's the rules. Suzi took offence and I removed it.

Suzi if you'd like the thread to come back you can let me know and I will retrieve it.
Good thinking. Looking after the right people there, it's a great direction to take the board in.

I thought it was a bit off, given that the only reaction would be that everyone would jump on and bag this Suzi character.

Some people are more thin skinned than others.
 
Jars, if you posted some absolute crap, I'd hammer the tripe out of you. You'd delight in doing the same.

If a certain other poster posts absolute crap, continually and unstintingly, yet is not only permitted to do so but those who seek to bring that contributor to task for their outlandish stupidity are censured and have perfectly good (and funny) contributions deleted, then those in charge might find that they are only left with the idiots.

What happens if the thread was about you then Mark? Would you take offence or would you take it as a joke?

Have a whinge. Why on earth would you get so worked up about one poster that you are free to ignore if you wish?
There are plenty more that post predominately rubbish that you seem to take no notice of so why this one?
The quality of posting has never been a reason for banning.
 
Well then, how about you tell us your side of the story suzi?

Everything Lethal had in the "interview" was information taken from posts you have posted on Bigfooty. How exactly do you mange to live in Ballarat, goal umpire and work for Hawthorn football club plus do a degree in marketing or whatever you said. What about Ken Judge and Chris Connelly and you sms'ing the Hawthorn players before the match.

You ain't for real. People have asked KJ if he know's you and he didn't so cut the crap. You're a serial pest, back to the days when you hadn't discovered bigfooty and annoyed the **** out of us on the official WC board. You send insulting pm's to people and then run off to the moderators to get them on your side. Like I said, cut the crap and stop playing your ****ing childish game.

Which would be a waste of time. No sides are taken.

Trust you to wander off topic. If you'd like me to clarify what I said, add 'in my case'.

It's the censorship he's worked up about, the fantasy of posting is incidental.
 
Thankyou FR.

As you point out Fred, there are plenty of cretins out there who I don't bother with. Equally, there will be numerous posters who don't bother with me. I'm a big boy, I can deal with the fact that not everyone likes me.

HOWEVER ...

What seems to be happening (and I say "seems", because it is only my perspective) is that there are different rules in place for specific cases. Countless instances of abuse by one poster are ignored/tolerated, while what I perceive to be relatively harmless, deadly accurate and reasonably humourous observations in the other direction are deleted.

Simple question: why?

Bullshi t. I have been sent a pm from a moderator threatening to kick me off because he let showbags suck him in.

This is a forum. People here are anonymous. I have no problems with showbags being on the site. But in the same respect, she (and the moderators) have to take into account these aspects:

1) Showbags has been caught out lying many many times
2) Showbags quite often goes onto other teams boards
3) Showbags is aware that many people are taking digs at her
4) Posters have the absolute right to take a dig at her
4) She also knows that it is rare for anyone else to agree with her

So, rather than ban every other poster, there are easier solutions:

1) Showbags can change what she says on the forum
2) She can accept that people are going to take a dig at her
3) She can stop posting on the boards

The ball is in Showbag's court - not ours.

As you say - perhaps it's perception. I'm still puzzled that you ignore most that you disagree with but can't in this case.

All good points.

But you have (and everyone else) has the power to "get rid" of her. She seeks attention by the stupidity of her posts thus ignore and don't respond to her.

She will soon go away if everyone (I mean everyone) ignores her.

Fred, for the umpteenth time, "ignoring" is not the issue. Censorship is. You've just had a crack at Rohan for avoiding the issue, how about sticking to it yourself.

The question is: Why the double standard re deletion of posts?
 
suzi

You want DCFC to ignore her, yet the moderators should ignore her requests to remove posts and posters!

If you treat the idiots with more respect than anyone else it will become a board for 3 year olds. Moderators call there.

She is so moronic that she deserves to have the ***** taken over and over and over. For crying out loud she still doesn't understand that the "interview" was with a cartoon character! She's not thin skinned, she just doesn't get it. By removing the post you seem to have validated her belief that it was incorrect reporting, not a satirical post!

I don't particularly want to get rid of her. She unintentionally provides humour to the boards. The only thing I am trying to say, is this:

Hey showbags, you have first hand knowledge of what goes on at BF. You are welcome to stay, but if you don't like what is being served up, you can always leave - but stop going to the moderators and bothering them.

The choice is yours. I'm easy either way.

Well if you think that the quality is no good here, then ask yourself this, Why are you posting here then derns_hawk?

is it
a) because you have been banned from hawk headquarters.
b) because you want to single out a couple of people
c) because you want to bag the mods all day long

I think it is all of the above.
