Sonny Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 I supported the Sin Bin. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but to constantly repeat it ad nauseum in every thread is a pain in the arse. Whatsmore the main culprit, who openly admits he was not a fan of the Club, has only posted negative comments about SMFC in the years that I have been a member. He attacked everything from old BOD, new BOD, SMiSA, car parking, sitting arrangements, manager, players, hospitality, scouting, community etc etc. etc. Anything about the Club he attacked. He openly ridiculed fans and those running the Club. He often using 'alternative facts' to justify his tirades. He only gained a response as others defended the Club. While no Club is perfect he had only a one-sided viewpoint - his negative one. While others may want this kind of long indepth argument on a forum my primary interest is in how the team is performing and factors that impact on that. For those that did want to get embroiled in pointless arguments the Sin Bin was the place to be. Everyone had a area that suited them - or not.

Until he reinvented himself, he was actually quite interesting. Shame really. Deserved on current form tho. Agree entirely. I'm sorry he's gone and I regarded him as a friend but he did seem to change and became a bit anti nearly everything St.Mirren. I hope he can come back some day, acknowledge he went a bit OTT, and start amusing us again. In the meantime, RIP Shull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damned if I do, damned if I don't. Plenty of posters liked sparring with Stuart in particular, which is why I did not ban him. I moved him out the way so users could decide whether to engage or not. Stuart for whatever reason, despite all his bravado about how much he was loving the attention, has decided to leave the forum. His choice, not mine. Shull is a different case entirely. I've no idea what happened to him but the last few days posts were increasingy bizzare and he started openly abusing me. I don't really need to put up with that so I banned him, simple as that. My baw and all that. Shull never abused you. He called correctly that you had no class, by the way you ridiculed Stuart in the way you handled his leaving. Try be a man and apologise.

Drew Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 (edited) 2 hours ago, faraway saint said: What about people who have left because the "inner circle" are only happy when it's posts that they like? There are two sides to this, which you, and may others, don't seem able to grasp. If I complained about the repetitive shite by others you would be busier than ever. What I see as repetitive, lets say mentioning a manager is great over and over again, is deemed dull to me. I\m not complaining about the 2 people that have 'left the building' as there is an argument they went over the line but the point Dave is trying to make is it's easier to deal with these people rather than sending them to a section where it only serves to give others a smugness and to be honest your decision to make public about Stuart asking for his account to be deleted etc was totally unnecessary. PS The amount of "likes" these individuals have received proves that plenty of posts were seen as decent, no? 'Inner circle'. Is that a variation on the clique theme? Who is in the inner circle, and how do they manage to wield such influence? Is this a new conspiracy theory? PS- its worth bearing in mind that if one fanny 'likes' another fanny's post, that doesn't equate with said post being decent.

It does Faraway but the threads turn septic with to-ing and fro-ing over the exact same point as to reply people will quote what was said so ignore has severe limitations. I have an opinion and everyone else has theirs which I respect. I have no interest in spending all day trying to convince someone else my opinion has more merit than theirs which is what usually happened and the threads became long and tiresome and off topic.
