superstar Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 It also seems ok to send threatening or at the very least intimidating PM's and nothing gets done! Classic example of double standards.

OLDYELLOW Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 It also seems ok to send threatening or at the very least intimidating PM's and nothing gets done! Classic example of double standards. its clearly not and are dealt with just copy and paste the pm and forward to a moderator in these instances and they are dealt with in a very sympathetic way
ChrisMaidment08 Posted November 27, 2008 Author Report Posted November 27, 2008 report it to the webmaster if he thinks its wrong i wont go off in a huff ;D now why would i want to do that?? but suppose he did and warned you what would you truthfully think
ChrisMaidment08 Posted November 27, 2008 Author Report Posted November 27, 2008 i reported it to the webmaster my snot post should be removed in soon as chris and if richard thinks its vulgar it will be ;D ;D :P
Guest Freebird Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 now see i find that sick yet its normal to you we all have diffrent ideas on fun witty comments but that is not tasteful Agree this post says it all. I think some on here get picked on for being honest but true to thier cause. It seems the more open one is, the more one is open to abuse. I love the banter ( long live the banter ) some folks don't get it, shame, coz it bonds the ones who do. We are all on here for one reason only PIGEONS. Let's not forget the auld yins who made this sport / hobby. BANTER was a way of life coz let's face it life was hard. So I believe banter is in ones genes just like the doos. Some have it and some don't. So for the dont's PLEASE don't spoil it for the working man as after all the working man makes the world go round. Yes I think the MODS have it tough but sometimes they can make it tougher. One thing for sure, this IS the best pigeon forum on the globe.
frank-123 Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 i would be mad for being told off but when you think on it what has it do with this thread on moderators me i am only a child behaving idiot though
Guest Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 It also seems ok to send threatening or at the very least intimidating PM's and nothing gets done! Classic example of double standards. There is people that have been suspended / barred for that Superstar. Forward it to Richard if you are being threatened / initimidated mate, you should not have to put up with that.

superstar Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 its clearly not and are dealt with just copy and paste the pm and forward to a moderator in these instances and they are dealt with in a very sympathetic way Done that days ago when it happened and still nothing. Asked about it, told been too busy, asked the following night, please forward PM's which is strange as they were on my original complait and they had that to know what I was on about in the first place. By the way I wont be dropping it no matter how long it takes. You take this moderating so seriously then act upon something serious
DOVEScot Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 It also seems ok to send threatening or at the very least intimidating PM's and nothing gets done! Classic example of double standards. Aye, I have had a few of them but I will deal with them personally when the time comes. I personally never report anyone to admin I would rather deal with it myself either on the boards if that is where it started or in a PM if they haven't the spine to post their crap openly or in person which I much prefer as it is natural as you get a true feeling of what they are like :-/ What about threatening phone calls from members on the site ;D ;D ;D
ALF Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 Done that days ago when it happened and still nothing.

Perhaps they have been threatened or intimidated in to not acting?
ChrisMaidment08 Posted November 27, 2008 Author Report Posted November 27, 2008 i would be mad for being told off but when you think on it what has it do with this thread on moderators me i am only a child behaving idiot though yes you are but you see this is thread of some thought and good points you so far have made fun of it yet you are still on heres the point? being who decides banter or stirring nothing wrong as long as noone complains and if not youer thread why complain is it just to cause upset you dont have to be on thread there are others what harn are you doing by acting goat none yet???

ALF Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 who has been threatened by phone have i missed something dunc??? I'd like to know who has been doing that aswell
Guest Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 I'd like to know who has been doing that aswell :(i think we,d all like to know that one?? andy
Guest Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 Bart.....surely the light hearted banter is nothing compared to the idiots who use abusive language and deliberately set out to disrupt a thread and get away with it.You are missing the point. Lets get rid of those who deliberately disrupt threads like TSkyes and the like. Are you telling me that you can stand at the bar and discuss pigeons at your club and NOT tolerate a bit of light hearted input, cos if you do you live in a totally different world to the majority of us
frank-123 Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 so the origanal thread was about moderators and there have been some good posts mostly saying they were doing a good job so your self moderating would shoot me down for my snot comment next time you say something out of turn i shoot you down it would not work thats why a mod can come in and say in his opinion i will move that in case it gets out of order so i would keep it the way it is of course the mods wont be right all the time just like refs in football
Guest Freebird Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 Maybe time for naming names, but I know Dunc will not as he is an honourable man and will no doubt see to it himself, hopefully. These people are not worth the trouble to be honest as they hide behind a keyboard and would not think of saying what they say, face to face. No moderator can control this.
DOVEScot Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 who has been threatened by phone have i missed something dunc??? I will deal with that matter myself, it was a threat that in as much as he was going to do a few things to me if I continued the way I was going, well I am still here and acting as normal so we will wait and see if he is just barking or prepared to take a bite 8)

frank-123 Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 lenwade bob i like a laugh never have i said there should be no banter but there must be a line where mods can step in and take a post out just to keep a good thread going surely you agree dovescot has already stated about banter that caused the webmaster to step in with a new set of rules and ban any banter a year or so ago because it got out of hand maybe swapping the mods around a bit might let people see the other side
