Groups are less convenient for that purpose though - if it's on the main forum it is easy to see a new post whereas every time I check the group there are no new posts so I get out of the habit of checking it - and also the forums are open to everyone not just group members.
I can't help but feel your decision to resign as a moderator is a bit rash though - we all get pissed off with the binners from time to time, not least for me when they where calling Tierney a cheat, but you've said that there is stuff we are ignorant about which may of offended us but you've protected us from, and is that not indicative of you doing your job as a moderator well that we don't know this stuff happened? I appreciate being a moderator is a thankless task, but at the same time remember on BBC 606 when your thread would be pulled for the mere mention of Marlon King?
DM - not least for me when they where calling Tierney a cheat That is where it all started - Yorkie and his famous 4! We have fought to avoid a repetition of that but it seems a lot of people want to take the piss all the time or at least a lot of it with very, very little content other than slagging each other off. If that is what people want then I am better off out of it, it's not for me. No doubt Yorkie & Guru will be spunking in their pants following this and tbh - I don't give a flying
I think this thread is disrespectful to me and all who sport facial finery and if this continues i shall seriously consider resigning my post at the Beard Justice Society.
So, if we just had a banter thread, he could of posted it on there, and if he had posted it then it could just be deleted (Rather than merged) as it would be clear that would be fate of all WUM posts outside of the banter thread.
Like I said, perhaps the next mod (or Dave, if he continues) could take that on board BUT there is still the problem with cross board threads such as this one was.
Whoops.... Thread was a little bit of banter with a touch of wumming for good measure Thai , if we we,re in a pub you would take the piss out of my team and i would give it back, its lite hearted banter..calling me a prick ain't just like calling you a deported lady boy dike but i wouldn't do that . You and your fellow mods do a great job and i for 1 thank you all for doing it but this thread was just a bit of banter as we had **** all to else to shout about. COYBs
I would not expect anyone to take the piss in the pub unless I knew them (or they were looking for a fight) and I certainly would not do it unless I knew the person I was saying it to and knew he could accept it for what it was. I see no reason why it should be any different on here tbh - oh yeah, it's an Internet forum, you can do anything you like on one of those can't you because there is no responsibility attached or consequences to such actions
Posted by you the other day on the Colchester board - without any provoking from then, on a thread with no link to Norwich. "Some of them even class us as rivals but no idea why. We have only played them a handful of times in the last 50 years and do not even register on the Norwich radar! Some of them are still bitter we took Paul Lambert from them though and having done that, went on to take David Fox & Marc Tierney from them too for next to nothing and are proving to be two little gems ColU Mike is a favourite of ours too, every time he predicts Norwich will screw up the exact opposite happens but he still visits us with a gloomy forecast " Bit of a wum, no? and exactly what you have been moaning about. Massive overreaction on this thread for sure. VOTE WHOLE0LOT0OF0HOLT FOR NORWICH MOD
Just remember young man, you'll find it difficult to moderate a forum from which you are banned! Stick with GC, that's about your level of intelligence!
Seriously, when did it become so strict on here Dave. I just pointed out that Thai has done the same on the colu board. Would you disagree? In all fairness I think you and Thai do a good job and Im barely on the Norwich board - when I do I dont swear, or insult anybody/hurl abuse out so stop making me out to be some horrific poster when Im clearly not. Rival teams wind each other up when stuff goes against their team, its fun and what makes football interesting.
What you referred to was not out of order, if you were on here often enough, you would know that Colu_Mike has legendry status on our board, he's been our lucky charm for over two years! When you first joined this site, I had high hopes that you were turning into a decent poster, but as soon as you had one of your silly, smiley threads closed you reverted to type and then disappeared for months! Now, as soon as there's trouble, you turn up like a bad penny!
The first bit of the comment, not the colu mike bit!!!! You cant argue that that comment is the same as most of the Ipswich fans replys on here! You're definitely making out that I am a lot worse than I really am. I know Im a good person - so whatever
