What I find astonishing is that Hull City AFC (DMD) liked the post. To be fair I started to think the moderator being described was him.
Sounded like it to me - "Since the leading lights of CTWD, a single issue protest group, filled most of the committee places on the newly formed Hull City Supporters Trust, it too has developed largely into a single issue organisation." I only insult the stupid ones.
Sadly, "Mr Ben" your response is typical of many on here lately and one that I thought didn't suit you. If you disagree with anyone, you resort to insults and adopting a supercilious attitude; the implication being that only you can be right - because you said so.
You posted a derogatory post about HCST, then whine about it when people take a pop back. If you don't like people insulting you, then maybe you should avoid insulting them in the first place?
Funny that you never mentioned this preference until Allam dreamt it up. A bit like how you said Barmby should be given a full summer at least, until Allam decided to sack him. No principles, you just swallow up whatever he says and does because your allegiance to Assem Allam is greater than your allegiance to Hull City. As fans have Hull City, we should always be united in the love for our team. You love it so much that you prefer an alternative team, but not until a rich man tells you to prefer it. Call yourself a City fan? Pathetic.
There is a difference between criticising an organisation and insulting an individual. Maybe not in your eyes.
Yeah I can see that I didn't even know this board existed before last February I work with someone just like Happy( sorry Mary Mary quite contrary) Tiger. He just says the opposite so I've started saying the reverse to what I think and he still says the opposite
It was a simple question. No childish name changing or slagging anyone. Obviously above your intellect. I wonder why you don't want to answer a question that was entirely related to your previous supposition?
As one of the ten people who run that organisation, it's rather hard for me to not take it personally.
I think there are a few bits in his post that are worth discussion. Dismissing it for a part that you consider derogatory is short sighted in my opinion. The Trust shouldn't be beyond question or sensitive to criticism, quite the opposite in fact.
What memory techniques are you using? We might have an Alzheimer bug on board; if we have I predict everyone will be fine tomorrow.
There are a few on here who I wouldn't be suprised to learn that they are Assam and Ehab, or that they had been bought. Ridiculous I know but thats how they come across
Nor I you. In fact I have insulted no one. My post merely said that both sides' opinions are too entrenched and I find the level of name calling boring and childish.
Dutch mate, you're absolutely obsessed with how the trust should respond to constructive criticism. I see far more of that then I see constructive criticism from anyone. Through our various channels, we get a lot of praise and a few Strov type numpties. If people sent us suggestions or whatever they would be listened to. I think you must know that from your own experiences really.
Firstly it's "Sir Cheshire Ben". This what you said, "Since the leading lights of CTWD, a single issue protest group, filled most of the committee places on the newly formed Hull City Supporters Trust, it too has developed largely into a single issue organisation." This is inaccurate, incorrect, bullshit & bollocks & raises the bar because of. The role of the moderator is defined quite clearly in the board rules. 7) Moderators The moderators on all the forums on this site are volunteers. We're just normal posters like everyone else, and we're allowed to have opinions and disagreements with people like everyone else. We just happen to have been given the ability by the administrators to edit and remove posts when it is necessary to make sure the content remains acceptable to the users. On this forum, as with the rules, all the moderators have been chosen by the users following open threads on who they should be. From this I read that if a moderator wants to telll somebody they think they're being a ****, then get them told, it's within the rules. They've told me before, obviously in that instance they were wrong but in general they're good at what they do. They don't have to set standards for others to follow or encourage others to join in. FFS it's not "first day at football forum & here's your Moderator buddy" Your statement was wrong, admit it, live with it, accept the criticism & move on.
