Man up and Right your wrongs MOds

[Guest]

Don't agree with you at all in regards to your 'free for all' forum. I have no prob with someone starting a tongue in cheek thread like 'Pearce in hot water'. I don't have to read those so they are fine with me and I'm surprised they were banned.

What I can't deal with is the constant derailing of threads because two or three idiots wanna abuse each other. You see that a thread you are interested in has been updated so you go in to read it only to find out it's only a couple of 'kids' abusing each other and it has nothing to do with the subject. It eventually happens to most threads. I don't understand why anyone finds that fun.

I'm 50yrs old. I have no idea why anyone wants to throw abuse over a forum. I mean most of the time they don't know each other, have no idea what each other looks like. You could be arguing with a 7 yr old, or a 70yr old. You usually don't know.

At the end of the day, all you are really doing is abusing your computer, or your tablet, or your smartphone 🤔🤔

Mate you are right. A free for all is probably a bit much. I do agree it is annoying to log in and visit a thread expecting posts to only find nonsense. On the other hand though the forum is very dead. I think a lot of users encountered technical difficulties and just gave up.

I'm a few years younger than you but not that many. But honestly I enjoy some feisty banter. I'm so old school and un-PC that I still find some forms of cyber-bullying entertaining and ejoyable.Things have changed a lot over the past 5 years or so though and there now seems to be much less tolerance. Doesn't anybody remember Jason08? How could you do anything other than pile on a user like that? Or how satisfying does it feel to know you have pissed someone like Tobin off? lol

Run at me.

We are all so desperate for The Mighty Roosters to play that we have to talk about this BS.

I read the people I want to read.

I only respond to those people (if I respond at all).

I ignore the rest.

Works for me.

With your 5802 posts, I'd say you respond quite a lot.

Now you know some power hungry nutter has got on his high horse and banned people on fiction and suspicion not fact( something one certain mod does not believe in).
How about you apologise and re-activate the accounts that have been done wrong, i am all for getting rid of the trouble makers, even i could have been suspended a couple of times but please stop taking the morale high ground and banning all new accounts. This place would be extremely boring if it was just me bagging The Teflon one and R6 defending him whilst ogling a nude pic on Pearce's twitter account.

FFS do the right thing

Alright lets address this because it seems you're going to play it out for all the attention you can get and all the shit you can stir until I do.

The two members you claim to be your Friends who I have outrageously banned are 'Lover o takei' and 'Hickory Dickory Dock'.

Lover O Takei - 'Your mate' signed up with the same E-mail address as yours. Now unless you share an E-mail account with your best mate who lives in New Zealand then that was a pretty easy one.

Hickory Dickory Dock - 'Your other mate' posted from the same IP Adress as Lover O Takei. Like come on...

Honestly with the amount of free E-mail services there are available and how easy it is to find a half decent proxy server you might want to put in just a tiny bit of effort before you try to paint me as something I'm not.

[Rooster_6]

Haven't you been banned several times yourself? Oh wait ...

Seriously this forum is as dead as dead can be. Lets be realistic. We don't even have any mods anymore. They have all gone except for R6 and occasionally G-man. Chris, the owner of the site, seems to have moved on many years ago.

Why can't we revitalize it? Make it a free for all. That's the fun of internet forums in my opinion. I enjoy copping abuse and dishing it out. Honestly, how many active users are there at the moment? Can't be more than 20 or so. Lets get the members back and make the joint fun again.

Is it time for new Mods? I think so.

I actually ageee with a lot of this.

So much so that a couple of years back I offered to buy the site from Chris. And that's not a knock on Chris at all he keeps paying the bills and put a lot of work into this site but just doesn't have the time with work commitments.

[Rooster_6]

My position with moderation has always been that you can't ban people. Guys like Turk are passionate Roosters fans and they'll find a way back if you ban them. Just frigging let Turk be Turk... and let him use the Turk account so that there's none of this bloody guessing!!! Users can then block Turk's posts if they don't like his contributions... easy as that.

This experiment has already been trialled... lets not forget the forum that was started with this exact purpose..

Rooster 6 has absolutely no reason to apologise.

The people that should apologise are the attention whores and the malcontents but they never will because they only care about themselves.

So we work at the same place and use the same computer big deal, if I wanted to be dishonest with these alias's that is exactly what I would have done, they are not Turk, I am not Turk I do not need to hide behind another Nick to post the regular and consistent dribble I do. So what one of the guys asked to help sign him up, I did my email was accessible at the time so we used that to confirm, big deal, we all registered from the same IP address who cares, I dont want to waste my day creating these proxy things your talking about. you banned these guys due to an incorrect guess at who they were and for no other reason, you are wrong, very wrong yet you want to make me out the bad guy, that's fine nothing those guys posted resembles anything I would post, in fact one is a deluded Pearce fan like yourself. So no I will not let this go I will paint you as someone you are. For your info Soni has returned to NZ so I do not know if he will return anyway

The wall was great yet the club decided to get rid of it and we all moaned.. If we keep complaining then this site will shut down and even if not perfect I like to come on and see any rumours or thoughts etc as the most of us on here do.

I see both sides yet as the admins rightly answered they had to ban these last two for dodgy emails. That should be the end of it.

If he is wrong he should apologies , people should not be banned on suspicion, I do not envy the job of the admins and mods, however if you take on the role do it fairly

[can'tkeepagoodcoqdown]

i recently tried to log in only to find i had been banned????? I may have had one or two comments during my time on the forum with none of these controversial .....so was a bit surprised by my banning. No luck when trying to seek a reason for the ban either

With the reasons R6 gave for banning those accounts, how can you no think it was reasonable?

Lol come on dude, the jig is up

On behalf of the other 2 I sent R6 a pm as to why they were banned with no response, a simple pm to myself or the other 2 posters would have cleared up the confusion, then he as mod could have made his decision, not just ban innocent people on a hunch that's wrong
