    I'd say Jammy IMO it's been a build up since 2012, not just since last Friday. He's also gone onto other team supporters sites just to cause ****. I'd say it's not only some of our own who have complained about him but also a lot of others from different teams boards. I've had many a run in with Glory, but have met him many times and like you know he's a different bloke. So I'm not knocking him in my comments. I'm just saying what might be the reason or reasons why he's banned. Hopefully things will be sorted and his get back on here and his health will improve...<ok>

    Great post Marcos. I was also aware of Steve’s health problems. I’ve met the guy several times and to be honest, when replying to him online, I think as I’m replying to Steve rather than Glory. Same goes for the lads I’ve been lucky to meet, wj, Chesh, yourself and others. Personally I think life’s too short for all this banning stuff and while I see the need for the mods, I just wonder have they become over zealous in their approach. Back in the day I hated school. Wouldn’t like this place to start resembling that

    Jeez Ristac, have you ever written as much before becoming a mod, you seem to have written a hell of a lot in last few days...Personally, I think you'll be a very fair mod......:emoticon-0148-yes:

    In General, while some of you have met Glory face to face, and consider him a different person away from forum, none of you (and I could be wrong) but none of you seemed to have hung around with him on a regular basis, this is why I'm personally not buying into "he's a great guy away from forum".

    Also, Glory had a habit of attacking anyone on this forum, majority of his posts/comments/replies were swimming in negativity imo.

    As many of you know, Glory went out of his way to attack me, maybe it started when I told him he wasn't the king pin on this forum, who knows, but it was always water off a ducks back to me.

    Glory had a bad habit of saying "it's just banter" "it's just my humour" and things along the lines of "I was just joking" etc etc, no it wasn't, and no he wasn't. I personally never bought into any of those things he'd say cos I just didn't believe him.

    During his bouts of attacking me, he once sent me a PM having a go at someone on this forum, won't mention his name cos he knows who he is, we've spoken about it, but he was pandering up to me to have a go at this other person. Firstly, I couldn't understand why he was pandering up to me, and secondly, why isn't he saying it to the person in question; I just told Glory that such and such can hold his own. He also did the same before that one about someone he said he was friends with. Both occasions saw Glory being two faced and stabbing others in back, I have no respect whatsoever for two faced people.

    Me and Glory have never got on, that's no secret, and anyone is free to pass these comments on to him, but I would never call for him to be banned as I don't think anyone should be banned unless the circumstances are very extreme and way way out of order.

    TBH, I don't know what Glory said or did, but obviously the MODS thought it was very extreme and way over top. Mods who have this forum at heart will always have my vote.

    That's my 2 bobs worth said.

    This is the best argument yet for reinstating Glory! <whistle>

    Hard to comment as I don’t know why he was banned.

    Thought he added to life of forum though in recent months had become a bit more acidic.

    You’ve still got me though

    While he has done plenty wrong in the past,the fact is all you mods got it wrong,and the way and outrage at what you all thought he had done set the tone for your 22 pages of crap and eventual ban for 2 people.I've always supported you all 100% in the past,but must admit this kangeroo court leaves a nasty taste.

    Chesh, the 22 pages was an ongoing saga and trying to de tangle the web that was behind erics and others accounts. BRB has openly admitted it was a mistake and was rectified within 24 hours.

    Let's be absolutely clear here...

    No about of protesting Eric's innocence was going to make the slightest difference.

    Judge, jury and executioner...case closed.

    Only Eric's personal intervention and brb believing him resulted in a reversal of the decision.

    Those are the facts.

    Any criticism of brb is harsh I'm my opinion as he only became involved due to our mods.

    Once he realised there had been an error he immediately rectified it.

    It was also brb that banned him straight away, a supermods decision above us and if you were privvy to the information then you probably would have made the same mistake. Hes rectified it straight away and openly apologised for said mistake.

    Our jobs are bloody hard, being a supermod must be even harder and the odd clanger will be dropped. Its rectified, the apology has been made hopefully we move on.

    Also it stemmed from another board- the mis information that led to Erics banning so in fact had little to do with us Leeds mods.

    Your opening post in yesterdays explanation thread clearly states the reason for both bans are multiple accounts used to cause disruption to the forum.

    Rustic has since confirmed you falsely linked Eric and glory together (obvious now) and that multiple accounts are now not the reason for the decision taken to ban.

    We therefore have no valid reason for Glory's ban remaining in place and as I stated yesterday I've reviewed all Glory's posts since Friday and can see no valid reason for a ban at this time. If he has offended you in private messages then they are personal and not on the forum and you would be entitled and advised to block him from sending you any future communications.

    My conclusion is that you the mods have decided the forum will be a better place without Glory.

    I believe that to be beyond your remit as moderators.

    Glory is banned, if you dont like that take it up with the supermods. Glory will still be banned. With respect, its not you who deals with all the complaints about Glory and you are seeing one side of the coin.

    No one's perfect and we all make mistakes,I believe this became personal between 2 people who don't like each other,Glory and ristac,and led to ristac looking for things that didn't exist,do I believe Glory would be banned if ristac hadn't done this,no I don't,do I think Glory needed to wind it in,yes I do.I get on with all of you mods and think you do a hard job well,but I hope ristac's a quick learner,and not to let personal views cloud his views in the future,anyway what's happened has happened,going to try and keep off here a bit if I can,as its lost a lot of the fun IMO
