    A poster posts a comment aimed at insulting my dead mother (the comment can be seen in my signature) and a few other fans laugh about it. Nothing is done.

    I post some completely non-offensive comments regarding this and guess what? My posts are removed.

    So there you have it. To be accepted by the Moderator on the Arsenal board you must be into mocking the dead.

    One person made a non committal sentence about Ginger marks comment, that does not count as the whole arsenal board. I called him a dick as well. I'm sorry about what he said but I don't know why you are stereotyping all of us. Especially since the main reason you are on our board is too wind us up

    It's the fact that the Arsenal mod is deleting completely non-offensive comments whilst allowing stuff like that to stand.

    I'm not trying to stereotype, I'm trying to highlight the attitude of the Arsenal Mod (and a few Arsenal fans on that board).

    Is that not stereotyping? Mate, if every time you go on the arsenal board you post antagonising comments what do you think will happen? Of course people are going to (for want of a better word) persecute you.

    That's the way the Arsenal Mod seems to see it which is what I'm trying to get at, sorry if it comes across differently. I'll edit it to prevent confusion <ok>

    Edited, sorry if my original article came out as stereotypical or insulting, it wasn't intended that way.

    i haven't got a problem with arsenal fans in general, they're good for a laugh and take it as well as they get it

    but i cant understand how cymraeg is a mod. his one sided bias is shocking. he has his favourites, and basis his modding around it.

    pinky, steevee and kamran would all make better mods.

    We are now losing good posters because of the non stop wumming and insults flying around and its got to stop. I have tried to sit back but its simple, if we all stick to our own boards we wont have a problem. I hear you now, its a multy forum site, it is but we all know when wumming stops and insults begin.

    Please stop these never ending threads moaning about how bad things are and help me to put it right.

    I would love to lighten up and I'm sorry that my asking for help causes concern. Like it or not I have a problem and more and more users are saying they dont like the way the Arsenal and Man U boards are going, its not a problem on any other boards.

    Its also easy to mock but there is a problem, one I couls easily solve by adopting a more 606 mod style, its not what we want. I'm trying to explain the problem and asking the users on the boards to understand it and hlp me with it, is that such a strange concept.

    I see that on my "Good Moderator" article which has been closed some people think that the comments about my mother's death were deserved because I said a few nasty words against someone's precious team <doh> I think some people need to get some perspective.

    Apparently I don't really care about the comments that were made. Well why should I care? I only had to watch her suffer for 7 years. I only had to watch the tears and the pain followed by the fits and the coma towards the end. I only had to watch my Dad cry, my Dad who I had never seen cry.

    My signature is to show what a piece of sh*t a certain person is. I wouldn't be so pathetic as to do it for attention.

    By the way Ginger Marks doesn't even support the team I had been making comments about, he supports Chelsea who I hadn't even mentioned and I hadn't been arguing with him when he made that comment.

    I appreciate where you are coming from Berb. He was out of order, and should be banned.

    Without sounding too disrespectful, but on the subject of your Wumming. Maybe until the site is standing up tall you could lay off the full on WUMMING. I've seen some of your posts and you can be a good poster but the problems that we have is attracting people over to the site. Most new users see the over the top WUMs and think, "Na sod this it's ****". At the end of the day we all want a packed forum with good posters and a place to debate. I'm all for heading over to other teams boards if you intend to create a good well natured argument about the topic of football, yes sometimes it get&#8217;s out of hand but as posters we all need to take some responsibility in that and realize when the debate is getting nasty and stop it there and then. Some people just plain don't like WUMs, personally I don't mind the mild ones it's the over the top (like Ginger) that ruin it.

    I am very capable of being sensible (believe it or not!) and am actually a lot more mature in real life. I will calm it down and behave myself.
