Suggestion The toilet that is the "Rumors" board.

[Snake_Baker]

Here's an idea to help flush the turds out of that place:

Make it so that no one with less than a 500-1000 post history can start a thread on that board, in order to dilute the obvious trolls & alt account cowards from spraying projectile diarrhea all over it.

Is that too much to ask to address some standards around here, or will it impact the advertising revenue too much?

You know you can contact the mods privately, right?

 

[Snake_Baker]

This is actually a forum suggestion matter that requires analysis from admin.

It has jumped the shark in there mate, and apparently that sits alright with certain mods.

 

[Chief]

Two of them are apparently in support

Of... ?

Let's attempt to get some better poster credibility associated with that forum, and remove the incessant alt account cowards & trolls.

There's posters bombing "inside mail" drivel on the board who have never been heard about on their respective club boards. I figure if you're going to expose rumors about people, then some element of poster credibility should be attached to that, don't you agree?

The 500-1000 post history is a good idea, and I would ask you to review it.

Ah! Manners! You do know about them! This is great!

Happy to talk to the mods about it.

Hang on just a minute there mate, when have I ever doxxed anyone?

I have actually received correspondence from you voicing your displeasure of the practice and your support of a strict approach to forum policy when dealing with it, so in light of that, how does even half the crap on the "Rumors" board manage to see the light of day?

Happy to talk to the mods about it.

Thanks.

Whaaaat... ?

The rumours board is a disgrace.

Someone can literally start any rumours they like there...except if it’s about other posters. Footballers are fair game. Doesn’t seem right. I could jump on there and write an ex Collingwood player got his sister pregnant and it’s fine.

Names shouldn’t be named of course. Really ripe rumours like the one you mentioned should be removed.

Discuss specific issues with the mods.
