BuddieinEK Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 If a wasp settled on your lap, would you try to remove the wasp or take a sledgehammer to your nuts? A poster went into meltdown last night. His posts were highly inappropriate! They were removed. Thing is... The whole thread was removed including un-inappropriate and actually very relevant posts! Sledgehammer to the nuts. I asked moderators to take action... but a bit of common sense and courtesy wouldn't have gone amiss! Moderating is not easy. I have sympathies. But some issues are too important and relevant to simply disappear with a delete all button! Easy option! Basically condoned the original issue by trying to hide it! Shame.

Slarti Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 Yeah, a bit of an OTT thing to do to solve a problem that you would think would have a more appropriate answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironic that the thread started about his inappropriate comments and ended about his inappropriate comments.

He is a hypocrite and a liar. No it was me - I PMd div and suggested he either got rid of Joe/Herman or the whole site. There is a line and I'm sure I've gone over it on a few occasions but last night was the second successive Saturday night that Joe/Herman just went the full Tonto. The site needs a coupla moderators and altho I have no real desire to be one I am willing to take a step back from posting if it avoids scenes like last night.

RichardBuddie Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 Yeah that stuff last night (and the other night too) was way off the scale for me, I like a good laugh, don’t mind disagreements and debate but self control should be utilised when posting.Oh and before Oaky calls me a hypocrite for mentioning debate I will be moving him off ignore tomorrow when I get on my work computer!! We can then debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However deep and important you feel your views are, expressing them on here is not going to bring you world wide exposure. So, the fact that a thread was deleted on this little forum of ours is anything but important. Some people don't know where their next meal is coming from, others struggle to pay bills for heating, many a pensioner is living on the pittance that is the state pension, Scotland is being held in an oppressive union against the will of its (clever) people, people are dying and they cannot even get a proper funeral during this bastarding lockdown, kids are missing their friends and so on.

As Tom tediously pointed out, it didn't need to be kept permanently so that it could be resurrected in the future. There are many far better platforms where the topic is/will be discussed and it making a difference. A wee fans forum doesn't come close to being one of them.
