[Closed] So, who got banned?

wisnae me

*types reply*

Not me - what thread was it?

He did just that in a later tweet. Jenbe on the tesco thread by the looks of it.

SBZ/glupton would never mistake 'yourself' for 'you're self' so it can't be him... ❓

"lower middle class"
WTF?

(edit beat me to it 2wheels)

Lower middle class?

There was a particular stinker from "jenbe" (might not be right) this morning.
Something about condoning a terrorist attack on a certain Royal event in London. I think she's part of a radical splinter group of the Milk Marketing Board.

Some nomark with a large chip on their shoulder by the sounds of it.

I joined this forum this morning and was met imedietly with an horrible post from this Jenbe guy wishing terrible things on the wedding today so I reported it, I don't mind saying.
Wasn't what I was expecting to see on the forums. Had my doubts whether I wanted to stick around but it was dealt with swiftly and removed.

Btw, hi everyone !

arf arf arf, somebody who speaks their mind gets banned, ooooooh.

Santacruzrider, well done, to be fair. 99% of people on here are great and the banter is cracking, but the odd eejit does crop up....

There is the occasional ****s knocking about but such is life!
More good eggs than bad uns.
Welcome though.

PS.

Hi santacruzrider

Big forum = lots of trolls. Anything offensive is usually dealt with fairly well

I must be too open minded as very little offends me on here, I like the extreme points of view; a vanilla forum would be boring and I wouldn't dream of dobbing someone in, that's what the mods are for

Ben - its reactively modded - the mods don't read every post so they will not necessarily know of an offensive post unless alerted to it.

I have only done so a couple of times when its been overtly racist or similar.

Winding people up on the forum ?
That's disgraceful, no wonder she got banned.

TJ- having not read the post I don't know if it was offensive or not but as with TV if I don't like it I change channels, is it a swearing ban or point of view ban; point of view bans I do not like

I don't know why the ban. I do know tho that yo have to go a long way to be banned - after all I haven't 🙂 ( apart from for a very offensive joke ages ago)

So why have a link to report a post?

I'm not new to forums, just this one and I doubt this forum is policed any differently to many others that exist. Mods are alerted by users, that's how it goes on most forums.

I'm new here but that's irrelevant in this case, I'd have reported it no matter where I saw it posted, besides, we're not even 100% sure it was this post that resulted in the banning, just seems most likely.
I may also not have been the only one to report it, I just said I didn't mind admitting it 😕

What offended you?

I've been cautioned for swearing btw

There are presumably places on the internet with true free speech

but frankly I prefer the world with light moderation

I think the moderation here generally is not fa off right. I'd prefer it to be a bit more liberal on swearing and a bit harsher on prejudice and on people who are negative all the time but its not far off and i amnot naive enough to think I have the only vewpoint

Im just glad you dont get a ban for poor spelin....

Prejedice is all around us, all the time, its easy to get riod of it on a conmputer forum, much harder in real life where you are indoctrinated from an early age, at school, in church , and off your parents.

IMO moderation used to be spot on here, it simply isn't anymore! 🙁

pot kettle and black Mr Project

conmputer

I think they do a fairly good job though I have grassed on posts a number of times ...including two of my own 😯

I appreciate that moderation is part and parcel of forums but at the extreme end of things fundamentalism is born out of the oppression of free speech; there are d**ks in the world who say daft things but hiding their point of view doesn't remove it only subvert it

Well spotted my deliberate mistake, and spelin

IMO moderation used to be spot on here, it simply isn't anymore!

I'm sure its a fairly thankless task. Although I do agree with you.

i have been banned in the past.
and when it happens it is usually deserved.

I replied to that post this morning from jenbe

It was pretty distasteful and disgusting but I don't do the reporting stuff so I simply told him/her/it what I thought of them

I do know tho that yo have to go a long way to be banned

Oh no you don't... 😉

How can an opinion be banned? It's absurd.

Still, ****ing off the site owners is probably a bad idea.

What did she say? Bombing the carriage and having sexy time with the body parts- that is offensive and needs moderation, was it that bad?

What did she say?

They were hoping for a suicide bombing of the ceremony

So it was that bad then, moderation upheld

How can an opinion be banned? It's absurd

things like that deserve a life ban imho.

things like that deserve a life ban imho.

Why, Ton?

cos i am a royalist fred. why?

Oh ok.

So you don't believe in free speech then, fair enough.

Eh? who's fred?

Ton- that is what is fantastic about this place, humour always saves the day

fred, i said IMHO.

I am not a royalist but there are limits to free speech and this is someone else's forum

Santacruzrider- you had know idea what this descend into did you?

No I completely understand, Ton.

You think anyone with views that conflict with your own should be silenced. It's ok, you're entitled to that view.

LOL, this threads gone right over my head now.

I'll get me coat!

fred, if i said i hoped a suicide bomber walked into a mosque and blew up a loads of ethnic people (but i used a nasty word), would that deserve a banning?

You think anyone with views that conflict with your own should be silenced. It's ok, you're entitled to that view.

Where did he say that? Did i miss it?

It's the way of the exploding fist pie.

Not in my onion, no.

😆
I think you can say you dont like them perhaps even wish they were all dead but if you call for peole to actually do it you have gone too far Ton gives a good answer as well.

I think you've made yourself quite welcome, there folk on here would argue day is night, you've enriched our day by posting

fred, be honest mate........you would.

I accept that this is not a forum for completely free speech, but let's be honest; any idiot spouting such rubbish deserves to be ridiculed and humiliated. Banning them deprives the rest of us of that fun. 🙂

🙄

I am amazed. TJ posts this:

i amnot naive enough to think I have the only vewpoint

and 45 minutes later none of his usual adversaries have risen to the bait. I was expecting to scroll down to bloody carnage. Must be Royal Wedding feel good factor. 🙂

schnullelieber

I was amazed to get away with it myself 🙂

Lolz@santacruzrider

I was banned on here the other week. no explanation, no reason. just banned. i could go on, but there is little point, its not my playground

but i have been banned for direct linking to goatse before many years ago which i still think was hilarious 😀

that statue is one of fred after he lost to my greater argumenting skills..... 😉

You got banned Steve? Seems odd. One of the less antagonistic folk on here

I was banned on here the other week. no explanation, no reason. just banned

Maybe you were [unwittingly] in breach of the super-injunction in place that covers talking about blocking ............ 😀

yes i am very compliant. seems i upset someone..... i'll leave it there

sometimes i do think the moderation of this forum is strange. having moderated a larger forum than this i am slightly confused about the moderation of this board. but its not my playground.

anyone for tea?

Three cheers for SantaCruzRider, lightened up my weekend of wife away, 2 fighting kids and no riding

regrets googling goatse
here is Ton smiling having beat Fred - note authentic pie!

bastid 😆

[u]Just googled goatse myself, doh!

that statue is one of fred after he lost to my greater argumenting skills

An event which has never happened, and could never happen.

Because with me and you Ton, it's not an [i]argument[/i], but merely me pointing out that you are wrong. 😐

🙄

Ah, I see you've resorted to the 'Ton Defence'. Usually follows a situation where Ton says something, is challenged, can't think of owt to say, resorts to rolling eyes smiley. 😉

Elf - on the other hand I could tell you when you are wrong

if i happen to bump into you this summer somewhere in the new forest.........i am gonna give you a very very big wedgie.

How???

That would be impossible Jezza, as I am never wrong.

I thought you are knowing this? 😕

yeah I am surprised at steve Austin being banned. V strange.

You won't be able to catch me, Big Man. 😀
