[Guest asha]

Why do you think i should be banned oldyellow,i do not swear,abuse,shout rasist abuse,just having a bit of fun,it does noy hurt anyone.

[DOVEScot]

i dont know where this information is coming from maybe deep seated paranoia , but i assure you there is no mention of any members problems regarding DoveScot , if members are indeed been warned about Dovescot then its without my knowledge , as for moderators deleing post they simply dont like , you have the right to complain to Richard , as i have said in a previous post use your back button to copy deleted posts then if this is indeed the case then something will be done.

 

It certainly isn't paranoia in my case anyway (who said that  ;D ) joking aside I personally find it a waist of time reporting matters as it just does not get dealt with, I prefer to deal with matters my own way, open and honestly :-/

It Maidmental calls me a ####### on the site this is deemed as normal behavior between us as, if Richard was to post the same it would be taken in a different context as this is not the way he behaves, when you join a forum you learn how some interact with each other and hopefully find your own part to play, you learn these skills the first day you take a step :-/

This is not a banter website it is a pigeon website that involves a degree of banter as it does naturally in the pigeon world, some of the trouble lies in the fact that a lot of people are new to website forums, lets face it this site is only 3 years old and hopefully we have all lived in the real world a bit longer (although some might not think so  ;D )

Some think because I am relatively good at computer skills I am a smart *expletive removed* and some think because I am new to pigeons I am just an *expletive removed* ;D ;D ;D That is life not paranoia

[ChrisMaidment08]

;D ;D ;D ;Doh like it over 3000 members he use.s me as ref ;D :P

[DOVEScot]

That asha i think is pushing the limits too far what about any new or young members that come on here I dont think its a way forward somehow

 

Your right Rose but although me and you have had some exciting differences in the past we have learned a lot about each other and hopefully gained some respect for each other and became friendly on the site. Do you mind when you posted the fact that I was a pervert in the heat of an argument luckily I laughed and took it no further but can you imagine the implications if I took that further or any other member, new or old, young or old took it as being fact :-/

[OLDYELLOW]

;D ;D ;D ;Doh like it over 3000 members he use.s me as ref ;D :P

 

lol chris  ;D ;D ;D

abuse perhaps this word has a different meaning im sure you can look it up with wikepedia , fun theres another at whos cost ? hurt ? your not on the recieving end so you wont be , but your actions have been noted and will be dealt with according to the rules of the site which you are simply dismissing in what you call fun

[joe61]

unless your in the gang asha be a good boy only gang members can do and say what they like and the mods let it go but who are the gang ???

 

oh happy days

[ChrisMaidment08]

perhaps you could tell us then we can all join

[joe61]

thought you already knew if you dont its a secret

 

oh happy days

[DOVEScot]

 

I think the more you get to know someone the more you get to know how to take the way they say things perhaps that is one of the disadvantages of the internet your views on a person on here and when you meet them can be completely different   Also you have the problem here of people that do know each other and can say things to each other that is taken as no more than a bit of fun but to an outsider can look completely different and there I think sometimes comes the problem of people getting involved and taking the wrong way what was meant as fun   Also unfortunately some of us are im afraid are not exactly the best at putting things into words we know what we mean but we dont know how to put it or we put it in away that can be taken more ways than one   I agree we have had some differences in the past but as you say we learnt a lot from that     Im not sure i totally agree with everything that has been said about mods but im only speaking for myself and looking at it from what i have done i admit to making mistakes i did not so long ago took whole thread of in error but i did own up to what i had done wrong and put it back on and i did sort out the problem with any members that it affected

 

Nothing personal Rose on the Mod part and if we were to start being personal with Mods on this thread regarding the ones we have problems with would soon be removeg, I am very surprised it has lasted this long and hope we don't get into a slagging match and it is left to run and some positive things come out of it :-/

[DOVEScot]

Agree with you dovescot if something postive comes out of having a discussion makes it worthwhile it doesnt need to turn into a slagging match between people dont think we will ever come to something that is going to please everyone though

 

Rose I don't want a slagging match but quite happy to post the truth, also just asking for fairness with moderation, thats all, surely not to much to ask for :-/

[ChrisMaidment08]

well mate was not to sure what would happen when i posted this thread but in a way i am now with so maney sensable replys its good to chat and see if something worth while comes out of it. if it does not i would be disapointed???? ;)

Me as well, maybe the webmaster or his management team could comment on some of what has been said, I know they have been reading it. I still have not had a response to my suggestion about a post on website news and views :-/

 

I have asked the Webmaster if he would allow a post on website news and views with the following conditions

 

No moderation

No foul language

No racist or bigoted comments

The members will self police the posts and not allow any of the above by condemning them

No posts unless they can be founded as the truth

 

[DOVEScot]

;D ;D ;D ;Doh like it over 3000 members he use.s me as ref ;D :P

 

Chris you are one in a million  

[DOVEScot]

 

my powers of deleting ectra are limited but i do think your been used or told a few untruths to get this reaction from you

 

Can you explain further what you mean, I don't follow what you are saying :-/

 

I asked the question because

1 I did not know you were a mod

2 It appeared as though you had some mod powers :-/

[DOVEScot]

I recon dovescott is right,and the 1st thing i would slag off is his loft layed straight on the floor,best to get 2 car jacks,and lift it gently up bit by bit.

 

Looks are deceiving there is enough room to get a ferret under it so slag away:)

[OLDYELLOW]

i have been a moderator for a while now , but i only moderate a few boards ,  but i do flag up repeat post double threads so i am limited to what i can do , what we all have to rember is we all agreed to the rules when we signed up , this is Richards site and we are all mearly guess that have the privilage of using this great site , i think some of the things are been said to you Duncan is misinformation as i said in earlier posts people arent warned about you and in the moderators posts ectra there is no mention of you , as i can access these bits as a moderator you have my word its the truth , but as your outspoken i think these bits are fed to you because people know you'l react and you are reacting because of your personality i think most people would react in a similar way and i dont blame you , but i think you are been misinformed because your claims have no credence and arent factual. Im sure theres been some good points made by having this thread and i hope Richard takes some comments on board , and makes a closing statement shortly   enjoy the site

[frank-123]

dovescot i think your wrong and disagree with your thoughts on moderation

richard your site is the best on the internet

fun,informative,friendly and fair there is no need to change anything maybe people posting should have a look in the mirror and ask why are my post being removed

if they think they are being miss treated by anyone report it to richard(webmaster) via pm or report to the moderator button

 

my opinion thanks

[superstar]

ChrisMaidment08 and DOVEscot for Moderators!

[DOVEScot]

I genuinely never realised you were a mod :-/

I know there are some on here that try to use me by posting somethings in a PM, but I tell them if they can't post it then why should I, also there are some that share information with me that I do post because they a frightened of the consequences. I am long enough in the tooth to judge these for myself, I may not always get it right but I am responsible for any post or thread I put on, on this post I have stated what I know as fact and can back up anything I have said

Oldyellow I have never argued the fact who's site it was or whether it needs moderation, I have pointed out a number of times my views and this thread started because it is a fact that admin are bias towards certain members, they do not always tell the truth, they control the boards to suit there personal views. This is just not my opinion but a few others on the site, some post on the boards and some are not confident enough to post their views.

I can post a number of examples of this but I said to Richard that I would not turn the thread into a slagging match only post my honest opinion, if that causes trouble for some then yes I can be deemed as a trouble maker on the site.

 

On your other point it is new members that had PM'd me saying they were told I was trouble maker, as they did not disclose who warned them in a PM then I do not know whether it was admin or ordinary members. I have been threatened in Pm's and have saved these off the site and have been threatened on the phone also by members from the site :-/

 

We seem to be going in circles around the issues so unless anyone asks me or posts somethinh person I will put the key board to rest for now :-/

 

It maybe that posting your honest opinion on a forum is frowned on by some  :-/
