Lord Pityme Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Noticed today that i cant read anything on the Smfc discussion thread whilst logged in. You have to laugh out loud at the infantile pettiness of the "its my baw brigade"... its a bit like the Trump communication team only wanting people to read/see their fake news and complete denial. Ah well if they get a boner out of it, thats up to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well if they get a boner out of it, thats up to them. It's pretty pathetic but more than that it must be worrying for Divs clients. Here, on his own website, he has tried to lock out two users, and yet the "hack" is so easy all you need to do is log out and you can read all the information you're supposed to be locked out from. I'm not sure I'd want to be a customer of the Big Front Door if web security is that lax. Not that it's worth the effort logging out at the moment. Two active threads - one that's been done to a standstill on Gavin Reilly, the other is supposed to be about new signings where names like non league Josh Heaton seem to be having no effect at all in driving traffic.

This is not 'your' site to make demands on how it operates. It's a bit like rolling up to the club where the bouncers, paid by management, decide whether or not your presence add anything to the club or the enjoyment of others. Stop having a collective dummy spit about being giving the heave-ho for being a prick, being a pain in the arse, being rude, etc. etc. etc. Sure, behave like that if that it is your want, but if you get caught out and kicked out, remember it was your call. You knew what you were doing, took the risk, now "do the crime, do the time". If it was me, I'd either ban you outright, or put you in the Sin Bin where you would be unable in any way shape or form to read the main forum. I'd also make those outside the Sin Bin unable to post in there. If you transgressed in there beyond a level set by management as acceptable you then get banned. The alias business is less easy than suggested if certain identity requirements are compulsory on registration. Bottom line is, behave in a 'reasonable ' manner or suffer the consequences. Have a nice day. Crime? It's a public football forum, takes all sorts. FWIW I'd ban you...............Oor Wullie, funny in the 60's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't breached any of the forum guidelines unlike others who issue threats, like Cockles, or those who make racist posts, like Pozbaird. I don't even think anyone could claim I was being impolite in any way to Marrez - one of a very few BAWA users I've respected for a number of years. I won't be boosting Div's user stats by creating another alias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pretty harsh message and it was even harsher the analogy used. Div has seen your posts under the StuD nickname go from 'I'm only commenting on one post' to 'I'm only commenting on a select few posts' to almost 600 posts in two months and is concerned if it continues to grow you might crash the website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll most likely be on one of two types of commission models - pay per display or click through ads. I use an ad blocker, but unfortunately when I post people often reply.

Completely agree. And if it's for trolling then SlartiPremiumBonds should have been put in here ages ago too. And if it's for being boring and bringing nothing to the forum there's another half dozen or so that could be stuck in here like Stu Gillespie, Div, Drew, St Lucifer......actually thinking about it maybe that's how this works. Interesting and informative forum users are put in the Sin Bin and are unable to read the main forum cause that's full of abusive, racist dullards. I get it now.

zico Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 It’s ironic that the abusive and threatening racists come into the sin bin specifically to troll as well.Even more ironic was watching pozbaird and cockles make such arses of themselves!
