?

    I personally don't believe that any on your board doubt that your have their best interested at heart

    Supermod's agenda is to do what is right for the site - not just an individual board - so we need rules that work across all football forums

    My answer above is sufficient for the moment - as we are only considering the situation - whitejock's comments mean we need to have a policy that is seen to be fair across all the football boards & if all irritating posters are band - heaven help the Mackems

    As you can see from the moderators board we have implemented a change in the rules re permanent bans

    With all due respect, can we not be left to police our own board?

    You are on the whole left to police your own board

    However - I would have expected at least one of the mods on here - as part of their mod duties - to tell us about the questions directed to the SM on Jocks thread - so that we could consider the implications

    Had you done this on the mod board we could have discussed it quietly without all the usual suspects having their say

    Your problem was either Jock or Leeds60 was too clever with their questions for the matter to be ignored

    You asked for our opinions?
    Wtf?
    <eek>

    Usual suspects? We are the people who use the board. And some come here hard though it is to believe to read the rubbish we post. Would you rather we stop?

    & I love you for it :emoticon-0152-heart

    I never repeat what I read in PMs - however I am going to make an exception for this - cos it is just too good to keep private

    The thread hadnt run its course. I said to Jock I would be replying to him once I was back on my laptop. That was today being a Monday, by then you had locked the thread and went on to open this one.

    The Don, El and myself were working behind the scenes and didnt ask for you intervention as it wasnt needed yet.

    "..... am not criticising our Leeds mods for working within the framework that is in place. They have no option, currently. The questions I am asking are challenging that very framework - not specifically for the Leeds forum, but across the whole NOT606 site..... it should be the SuperMods or the owner that should address this."

    If he then went on to make the same legal arguments about defamation he put to me on Saturday he was talking complete bollocks.

    I am out of this before I say something I regret, but you guys need to stop a barrack room lawyer yanking your chains and tell him the Leeds mods here are in charge and if he don't like it he has a choice.
    I say that even though Neil is a mate!

    Yes he did, I also said I would be answering his questions later and I would have escalated anything including the above to yourself.
    I personally don’t think you’re going to find a one size fits all framework across multiple boards, I dont envy your task if you try to implement then enforce it!
    So, due to one posters criticism of the current status quo you are planning on ripping up the rule book and laying some more down? How about the silent others that are happy with the current format? Just to put that in perspective, what do you propose to do with the current 6/12 ratio vote above? Try and please the 6 or go with the majority?
    You are not going to please everyone no matter how hard you try, and I do appreciate how hard you work <ok>

    I am not trying to please anyone ... we will just be as fair as we can be

    Supermods are generally hated - I find it an interesting situation - cos I was a nurse in my working life so am used to being loved ;)

    Your certainly not hated by me, your respected.

    Of course we are going to have challenging conversations, I need to do whatever it takes to keep this board active and happy and you have a responsibilty of over seeing that for every poster. Please dont ever take anything I say personally Im always going to come out guns blazing to defend the job our moderators do and everyone of our posters. Thats one of the reasons it took so long to ban Leeds60 and actually cost us posters in trying to keep everyone happy.

    Your certainly not hated by myself <ok>

    WJ's post was designed to stir **** - he has succeeded, and unfortunately it will create far more work for the mods/supermods and have serious repercussions if they decide rules need to be changed/clarified like he has asked - and NO, he wasn't representing ALL contributors!!

    I'm sure the majority on here do not want the format or rules changed in any way.
    Should have deleted that thread straight away!!
