You say there is always the choice of ignoring them, but when your views are constantly abused with bad language etc..,you get to the stage when you have to ask yourself is it worth making comment, knowing that it will draw their type of response and after all, we all have to think of the disruption to any topic that will eventually come from such people; you have to consider other people.

    I was pleased to see that one of our mods pulled one of them up over the use of the "c" word and quite rightly so. Now our other mod has at last issued them with a final warning. I think that is far too late.

    I'd be interested in your comments.
    I'm not a moderator on this forum, the plater is. You can add both posters names to the ignore list, when logged in their posts wouldn't show up. That's the thing, both are after a response, and they are continually getting one. I class both as forum trolls, their posts are repetitive. Posts on albion mad often have swear words in them, most get away with it by using spaces or symbols that look like letters. It's up to the forum mods on there to sort it out.

    I find it hilarious that they suddenly become interested in all other clubs affairs and have an immediate love in with other forum fans after a moderator telling off

    Typical child mentality.

    I have just spent some time looking back through my posts to see who had a go at me on the Albion Board. It wasn't an abusive post like some, but enough for me to decide that I didn't want to be involved. I was simply told that it was nothing to do with me, what was said on their board. I think the comment was born out of frustration at the position Albion were in in November 2017.

    The poster was Whika Man, ironic isn't it. The thread had a title of "Can this squad play attractive football".

    Ironic?

    According to the Chuckle Brothers Whicka Mon is ME??

    Must admit, I found Whicka Mon to be one of the good un's.

    Looks like he just had enough.

    Yes I saw that Newcy, The Chuckle Brothers, are two foul mouthed ignorant posters who should be banned. All they seem to do is slag people off, they never seem to post anything constructive, but would rather be confrontational.

    Thanks for the reply, wolves71. As you say, best just to ignore them; it makes me smile to see how they both are trying to be so friendly now they are on their final warning.

    Good to see that you are maintaining your push to promotion; only hope we can stay up, but it is looking rather precarious now.

    All the best to Newcy.

    Just carry on posting, never let those two win. Your opinion is as good as the rest. There's still plenty of twists and turns left in the season for both our sides.
