No recent activity so that's about 90% reduction in traffic on here. Well done for sending another poster into the wilderness!
Have you thought there might be a different reason why he hasn't posted recently? Might be worth checking before you start having a pop at people.
OK as it's out there I do know the reason. He was threatened with a permanent ban for his one and only indiscression. Bit harsh, as it was only in response to others verbally abusing people (without a similar caution for some reason). Whatever, it's enough to stop him posting. Shame.
After he had said he was fed up, I stated that steps would be taken if there was anymore name calling. He then fired in with one after reading the warning. If it had been anybody else apart from him, then I would have banned them, but it would not have been a permanent ban. The ban would have been for 24 hours as a cooling down period. If he had a problem with that, he could have messaged me, as anyone can. To flounce off is a bit of a tartish thing to do in my opinion. After all, it only an internet forum. If any of us spoke in a pub the way we do on here, people would have walked out, or got thumped. I personally don't see any real difference. If you think it will help, I will message FML and explain everything, but if someone wants to leave, I'm buggered if I am going to go begging to them to come back.
I´m sure it´s not really a question of ´begging´ anyone to come back Resurgam, but don´t you think, as staff member and chief officer, that it would be in all our best interests, to have as many active and content members as possible, contributing as often as possible - we´ve lost plenty enough lately as it is. I only got to hear of this through gandy, and I was also a bit surprised, as FML has hardly been the most offensive on here, as far as I can make out. He certainly deserves some sort of explanation, don´t you think, and if it´s a good enough one, he might even return without the need for begging.
Has anyone considered the possibility that there have been no games and he may have been just enjoying spending time with his family over Christmas? . Also Tony Munky Carabuh and others have left and nobody made a big fuss . Dave is no longer a Mod but can't help sticking his beak in to try to make the current staff members look bad at the first opportunity. A few months ago I changed my username and he was demanding that I get banned for having a second account. Now Dave is angling at getting me banned for being Colu_mike . Yet he's all for free speech and relaxed moderating when it comes to other posters. Massive hypocrisy on his part. I'm sure FML will be back and starting threads like this is pretty daft . To wake up on Christmas morning and write a **** stirring thread like this that will obviously cause bad blood and petty squabbling just speaks volumes about the O P. Take a day off Dave for Heaven's sake and try not to take this place so seriously. There is a reason you are no longer a Moderator and the board is a better place without your interference in my opinion. You clearly miss the Ego power trip .
More like a damp squib, I only react when my friends are targeted, I honestly couldn't care less what he thinks of me!
We are allowed to call people "tartish"on here now!? I find that quiet offensive! Of course, back in my day, I would have been banned for that. What advancements as a culture!....Or is it hypocritical? Could be a bit simple... Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you all had a lovely day yesterday. Thanks for anyone who asked after me or wondered about me. I've just been reading some nice messages, was really nice to log on to. Just wanted a little break from Norwich City Football nonsense and the hypocrisy on here. I hear we have a game today! Lets see if we can accidentally get a result! COYY.
See I forgot my lines is still posting and like most people had better things to do on Christmas day . Should of put *quite mate
No point posting a return message, without leaving something in it for the pedants to rip into you for (not that we do that on this forum, by law (Although some can)) I_Forgot_To_Dunk_Some_Donuts.
