McClean whinging again.

[John2]

Right...it's time to bring this topic back on line.

In regards to McClean, should he just ignore the taunts laid at him or should he complain every time this happens?

John2, I don't want a Tolstoy's War and Peace reply. Same applies to anyone else who has contributed more than 60 words in a reply.

Oops! Am I stifling 'freedom of speech'?

Topics naturally evolve.

It's not about what you want.

Are you saying further discussion in the direction it evolved into is not allowed, or is going to be restricted?

Not at all cup cake, crack on if it expands your ego.

I'm just confused by what you were trying to say, looked like you were considering abusing your mod powers... again.

Never abused Mod powers at all, show me proof. You have yourself a nice day sausage

Did you forget the time you deleted something you had posted and the subsequent replies because it embarrassed you and you got a slap on the wrist from CAM?

Okay sausage, let me correct you.

I did indeed put up a post that I regretted the next day. Seeing it was my post it was also my prerogative to remove it, as I was the originator, very similar to when others have asked a mod to take a post down they regretted posting.

A few had replied to my post copying and pasting my original post. Because I had removed my post, it made no sense to leave my comments within someone else's replies that in effect made no sense once I had deleted my wording, are you with me still?

As for CAM slapping my wrist , I'd do the same again if the same circumstances repeated themselves.

NB. I have tried though not to post too late at night so as not to regret something I may say in the heat of the moment.

So you learned nothing?

Those who do not learn the lessons from history are destined to repeat them. Here's a reminder:

Brin is new in the post of moderator and he needs to recognise that the 'power' he has to modify his or anyone else's posts is not something he should be using 'willy nilly' just to cover his own mistakes. Other posters don't get the same 'power'.

If you're willing to abuse your position as a moderator I think you should step down or have it removed.

In this thread you appear to hint that you're willing to abuse your power by restricting conversation when you don't like how the conversation is going.

It's pretty sh*tty behaviour to be honest.

Brin, just ban him. He brings absolutely nothing to this forum.

Yes he does. I've had runs ins with him but I didn't spit my dummy out.
If you don't like it, don't read it.
Too many people don't like hearing opposing views. It never ceases to amaze me how many resort to outright abuse when they're put on the spot with difficult questions.
We don't live in a fascist society (yet!)

Spot on. Thanks Vataland and John for some very interesting exchanges.
