Me too, I’ve looked back on Stans banning and will post about it later, it was definitely personal.

You'll be in the minority here, you also get on with him so straight away it causes a conflict and a clique.
Exactly. As if he going to moderate Saxton for example, or any of the flying monkeys for that matter.
This is where I mentioned the rights and wrongs in the OP. We'll argue all day about who's done what but have to move on to get back to normal.
He may even try to be fair but it'll never be seen that way by everyone and will cause conflict.
Not sure what the fuss is with @DMD being a mod, I've been on this site for years and I've never had any run-ins. Those who seem to have issues with him all seem to be from the political threads, I'm not taking sides cos I like most folk off there anyway but surely we can all see the problem here?
If those threads are moved to another part of the forum it doesn't make it harder for it's users to find it and use it.
On the other hand the PL board should have its off-topic allowance too cos it's not fun for the likes of Skids to chat football when his team are being humiliated on a regular basis.
The board doesn't need modded, but if it's going to be modded then so be it, I'd rather an impartial hopeless Hull fan than a Spurs fan any day, otherwise we'd end up with a shrine to Harry Kane and nobody would be able to say a bad word about them.

So far, other than tidying up after a petulant banned user I've edited a post of Duncan Donuts for posting personal info on Spurlock, and asked him and Fan to draw a line under their feud. Where's the bias?
And you should be able to post that without it being mental and bans being thrown around or the thread being moderated.
In summary, you clearly have a blinkered view because it is your 'chums' that have been judged to have crossed the line.So there are lots of unhappy people on the PL board, the majority want it to go back a few months, back to a time where there was bantz but it was all in house and self imposed lines we're in place so that we didn't need a mod. It still got a little out of hand on occasion by nothing terrible.
(Soz in advance for any offence caused for the next line)
Today we have a mod that nobody wants and a heavy presence from a supermod that some find an irritant.
Now we could argue the wrongs and rights of it all and end up with another boring thread where blame is thrown around.
So how do we get our board back?
Who defines 'our'? Does 'our' include Peter Saxton who has had to endure torrents of endless abuse from stan the snide and his pals, or are you only addressing your mates?
Any kind of info posted about another person's personal details is a big no, that one is easy enough.
Agreed.
Linking to GC or going on there causes mod work so stay away.
Not agreed. Such a rule can't be enforced.
The mod has to go, @DMD isn't someone we want as the local heavy. If there's to be a mod at all we shouldn't know who it is, they should be there to deal with spam, porn postings and other obvious infringements in the background only.
Not agreed, unless he shows signs of favouritism or power abuse.
@brb has to back off, the presence of a mod throwing his ban hammer around is like a moth to a flame.
Ridiculous idea. The mods ban someone and because they are one of your 'chums' it shouldn't be allowed? Why not just ask outright to be made the supermod?
So PL board members need to back up and chill a bit, leave GC alone and not post personal info.
Agreed.
Mods need to leave us to it once again and see if we can chill.
Agreed so long as stan the snide remains banned.
There's nothing terrible posted on the PL board compared to another place so give us a break and see if we can get back to normal.
You wouldn't say that if you were Peter Saxton or HIAG.
Tried to keep it simple and not drag up all that's happened.
If you agree or disagree then post here and hopefully things will change and some people who have recently left will come back.
This isn't the place to thrown blame or discuss past events.
How can you set a tolerance level for personal abuse? You either allow it or you don't. If it is stopped, most here won't be able to string a sentence together.
As for the recent trouble. Perhaps it would have been avoided if some hadn't put so much effort into merging the politics thread, GC and rest of the PL forum.
Edit: I added bold replies to most of your individual points if you click the quote.
I get on with those banned but look back and you'll see I get on with pretty much everyone. My interest is in getting the board back to what it was and that includes certain people back.
I said in the OP that linking to GC will have to stop. This will take an effort from all sides, we should be able to disagree without a mod or SM banning or editing threads.
Which is one reason why there shouldn’t be a mod, espectially you.
It’s always been an moderated board and should remain one.
This very point was made by brb when he first started coming over here, and he told those who didn’t like the idea of that to **** off back to their cosseted club boards, that’s how it should be and where it should go back to.
Appointing you is akin to making @Spurlock the mod of GC lol.
Then **** off if you don't want to be part of a moderated forum. Simple really.
So if brb really wanted a mod on here that it should be anonymous so that people don't have an opinion on that person's agenda from the start. Personally I don't think we need a mod. The are lots of reasons as to why it got to this point and it's not all down to posters crossing lines.
You’re one of the prime crying ****s who created this issue.
