    Didn’t notice that, which post was that in?

    Latest one about the grooming gangs. It was actually "paki scum bags". Not acceptable in my book and I reported it but the Mods kept it on. Their Web site and up to me if I carry on coming back on a site that tolerates such "free speech" on a football message board. But it was allowed so its a bit rich for IBS and his info wars obsession to be wailing about not being allowed to say what...he 'thinks'...

    How did you report it? I didn't see anything so I've just tested the Report Post button and nothing has materialized in my inbox so far so maybe it's not working.

    PS It's not 'our' website. Both Frog and myself became moderators due to needing to edit threads we regularly managed, him the match thread and me the prediction league. We stuck around when others left for various reasons and sort of inherited the roles we now find ourselves in.

    Ah, looks a bit different when taken in context doesn’t it?

    Plus in their case factual

    Pressed the little exclamation mark in the bottom left of the post and submitted as a message. Isn't that the procedure for reporting a post?

    No it doesn't. There is never a justification for using racist language, especially on a football message board which is open to be read by kids and people of all nationalities. If you harbour and support such expressions, keep them to your own circles or form a closed message board for people that share your specific thoughts.

    Is scum bags of Pakistani heritage OK for you?

    Well, wholly acceptable in my book and a crying shame these gangs groomed girls over a long period of time.

    Why are so many heads in the sand?

    If I go to watch Rotherham away, I sit amongst a fair few scum bags. Goes with the territory.

    That doesn’t make all Rotherham fans scum bags nor does it mean all Pakistani men are groomers if you read comments like above.

    It’s getting silly. You don’t even live in Rotherham. Unlikely you know anyone affected but it’s likely a few posters have been affected or know someone who has.

    I’d be saying a lot worse if my daughter had been let down like the 1000’s in the UK already have been.

    So two fingers up to your complaint.

    I hope now these scandalous accusations will be dealt with by the mods.
    Not on the football threads IBS. The O/T political threads maybe different and I admit to not reading them and letting folk get on with the insults and not letting them cross over. CAM and I will always look into any complaint made.

    I have certainly never received a complaint from you. The best way to report anything is through the Notification button at the top. That will send a private message directly to who it is addressed to and not through the FootyMad moderators.

    Absolutely agree howdy

    Kids have been grossly abused & no doubt left scarred for life but let's concentrate on a couple of words which may cause offence to some
    Oh dear what a shame
    Find another soap box rp as this one does you no credit
