We asked for a cross thread for the Derby which was turned down ...on the grounds that the board was seeking less profanity (and dog sex pictures for Joker) as -so we were told, Mick wants this to be a a family oriented site and the ensuing Newcastle-Sunderland thread would be the cause of too much abuse.
Apparently the system goes like this: a post is made, someone doesn't like it so they complain (presumably to their own mods). They don't get the result they want so they then go bleating to supermods brb/Posh who in turn ban people, delete posts or whole threads because it might be deemed as offensive ...This has happened twice recently on the Sunderland Board, where brb/Posh have got involved completely unnecessarily by banning people and removing threads when they can have no inkling of the people as individuals, the dynamics of the board in question or the root causes behind these unhealthy debates. Why they do this is beyond me, though on both occasions they have been less welcome than a fart in a spacesuit and we lost 1 very good poster who was needlessly banned following the 1st fracas.
Calling on Mick, do you want a nice tame PG not606, is this your master-stroke business plan?
