    Jose seems to have grown up a bit on this forum, possibly because unlike the BBC 6060 site this one is better moderated. The best feature here is the ability to ignore certain posters which I've done. It makes for much better discussion. The best thing we can all do is simply ignore WUMs and not reply to their threads.

    A nice person? Hahahaha the guy is a saddo - most likely some fat spotty kid who is a loser and most likely bullied in real life and deserved so. He takes out his poor life on the forum and seeks to get attention which he basks in. Take away the forum the guy is a most likely a failure or destined to be one.

    I used to enjoy posting on the bbc as far back as the old boards but not anymore thanks to this idiot. He drove away many of the good posters and enjoyed seeing people get frustrated

    Mods you have your work cut out once BBC closes because many have promised revenge attacks spam attacks on whichever site he posts on.

    Regardless of whether he is or is not still a wum he has certainly wound you up good and proper. Im fairly sure your post, and then my quote will be edited soon to remove the abuse parts.

    yes he did wind me up for driving the good posters. He also had an accomplice who i believe is LewisWDC another Alonso fan under the guise of being a lewis fan, who just like Jose still spams bbc . Looking at his posts you could see this losers attempts at being a wum. His plan when not spamming bbc boards was to pretend to be some black teen and accuse others of being racist to him.

    I have had someone confirm to me on bbc606 that LewisWDC joined under the new alias Joe Clarke.

    I'm glad you made that point McWilliams because I can say that's not the case at all. If Jose started messing up the board here then I would treat him just like anybody else. When I say I'm an Alonso fan, I'm not somebody who would ever have a go at other teams or drivers in a tribal way, I loved watching Lewis at Silverstone for example when he won in Gp2 and F1, I'm friends with one of the Button family and i'm as impartial as they come.

    I moved the Wums thread into this one as the topics are pretty identical. I don't see any terms of abuse to be deleted in the thread here.

    There is a chat -room here too, for any WUMS interested in real-time bitching at each other, or maybe using it as a way to sort out of their differences (we can but hope).

    Revenge attacks? You'd think this was a life or death matter rather than a forum for discussing sport!:bandit:

    ------------------------------------

    Mate, lots of people see sports as more important

    Having Lorca around cutting and pasting from other sites and launching racist attacks on Hamilton elsewhere will attract bad bad people who don't really joke

    Denial of service attacks on a forum type site would be a walk in the park for some. But expensive for the site owners

    Best not to endorse Lorca or his views or be seen to side with him

    Thing about him is that he leaves tracks like an elephant

    I'm not siding with anybody at all, it's just a shame that there's so much hatred expressed about something like this when you consider the real issues happening in the world.

    Hi all, have decided I don't need the hassle anymore of trying to help out here, seems like a lot of people are intent on making trouble and don't want to make positive contributions. I appreciate the helpful posters on here but there seem to be a lot more immature idiots just bent on making trouble. I've sent the site admin a link to this thread. Enjoy the F1 season when it starts.

    Cheers for your efforts, I personally thought you were doing a good job. Its such a shame how such a small group can ruin it for the rest of us. Hope your at least sticking around to keep the real debate posters numbers up.

    Thanks mate, I will probably pop in now and then. From my point of view it was like looking after a load of obnoxious spoilt brats, not worth my time and effort.

    I'd like to see mods able to ban people for 24 hours. It would probably sometimes cause issues, but in general it would at least shut people up for a bit so they can sit back and calm down a bit. We all say things out of turn, but to say it over and over every day, that's just being a little t**t.

    Closing this thread now, the idiots have lost us a good moderator and I dont blame him for going. Either myself or Mick will be back after we talk to decide what the next step is.
