perhaps you care to elaborate on this comment then

"I'd say people wanting to go on a forum that only as fans of the same club should seek another site as this one isn't for that. They could use both if they wished. This is a open mixed sports forum, you should expect interaction from opposing fans!"

one thread was my suggestion ,and that was your response to me!

Just did <ok>
 
Jenners & JB...

Here are my comments on the issue as a user of the site...

I agree its a bad idea btw

I'd say people wanting to go on a forum that only as fans of the same club should seek another site as this one isn't for that. They could use both if they wished. This is a open mixed sports forum, you should expect interaction from opposing fans!


And here are my comments as a moderator of our board...

How would you mod such a thing? Is it based on what club they support in which case, whats stopping a poster claiming to be a fan of a club they're not?

Feel free to try it. Technically, that is what the pub is there for though <ok>

I've already said to Jenners, give it a go if you wish, let's see what happens. However, if you want it moderating than I suggest the OP to such a thread highlights what the rules are <ok>

PS...and don't expect 24hr moderation either <laugh>

I'm happy to trial any reasonable suggestion. I don't agree about having a LFC Only zone but can't see a reason to just cast it aside either. My concerns are more around how it would be monitored and how can we be sure a poster is a LFC fan? Maybe they need to have made twenty comments before being allowed to participate? This gives us a platform to change a newbie put that also isolates them too.

I'm pulling my weight, I'm just not very heavy :p

I did say several times yesterday that they are welcome to give it a go. Also said the same about rules etc too but added that it wouldn't be moderated 24-7. I don't see the need for the poll (although we do love a good poll), just create it and see what happens. If it works, it works. If it doesn't, it sinks. Simple.

Think you will find I have not said don't do it at any point. I have passed my opinion and that's all it is, my opinion. I think people need to ignore the mod tag at times, I'm still a user of the site and entitled to pass my view <ok>
 
We could go the other way and have a thread for visitors of the board, a sort of online equivilent of a small dark room.

Because we've had such a discussion about it, the LFC Only thread may get boycotted by those that voted no anyway. That's if it ever happens (not a dig at anyone!)

mate, mate, mate, mate, mate, I love you, I really do - this has never been the point of contention.

From my point of view I have said I suggested it once, didn't go down well, don't want to create a thread now, THE END. From jenners point of view, he suggested it in a very throwaway kind of way, got told the response above in which you addressed one thread idea as some sort of new way for running the forum, kept getting told to go and make a thread from you and several others, - which he didn't and doesn't want to do. mito threw in 'changing the ethos of the forum' and all that came from the idea for ONE thread. Can we stop now please??? please.... please

Fair enough, we (including Jenners) were obviously at cross wires. Apologies if I caused offence, wasn't intended, I was merely passing comment but can understand feeling like you (including Jenners) are being got at if others put similar comments too. I didn't read every comment on that thread, I generally scan back a dozen or so comments and catch up <ok>
 
Is it invisible to non Leicester City fans as I can't see it and want to know what happens if I post there?

I thought you were joking here but just popped over to have a gander and I can't see it either <laugh>

I've no idea. I was reading the Leicester forum on Friday and saw this comment 'can we take this to the Leicester fans only thread, thanks' - so I presumed he knew what he was talking about <ok>

I'm not offended, can't speak for jenners <ok>

It's the people who don't want it who are making a big deal out of it - anyway me and jenners are off to join rawk <laugh>

In going to have a cocktail and expect you all to be one big happy LFC family when I get back drunk on sun, Portuguese food n cocktails later <diva> <smooch> <hug>
