    You need to get together and make some rules about it.
    i seem to remember once when a post was edited by a mod the screaming shout of censorship rang out

    Well if moderators never do anything, then why bother having them?

    in an ideal world they shouldn,t have to do anything
    the trouble on here is not the argument or debate its the venom and animosity , certainly in dans days there was debate but it was friendly banter - now theres so much anomosity and not just with pmag but between all =
    quite a few posters have left - most of the ladies for start because it s been turned into a lads site not a football forum -
    like a load of rutting bulls vying for top dog

    they cant make rules as they dont all agree with each other

    i was called peadoboro

    was the person banned
    nope
    why
    because pboro and wolfie and ghost are fair game

    so why should i be banned for saying someone who srtarted the digs was someones love child

    i do post threads that people may say are there to start arguments
    i dont
    i postt threads to cause reaction to cause debate

    wether thats an all loved up debate
    or a raised voice debate
    it still gets the board active

    the fact is in many points in life i have differing views to many others

    and i am not affraid to discuss this on here in a pub around a board room table etc

    i train in the same gym as Tommy robinson did

    and we have had many arguments over his view on immigration and radical muslims over mine

    yet it has never come to blows and we both walk away agreeing to disagree

    why some cant do that on here with out calling for people who have differing views to be banned is beyond me

    it is
    because all the main want is bear baiting a few of the posters

    when people say that certain posters scare away others
    do they not think that their constant having a go at ash ands shouting down those that have differing views and asking for bans etc scares away those that have similar views to people such as myself

    variety is what is needed on a forum

    thats why this forum is one of the busier footy mad boards

    life would be so boring if we all agreed and all got on

    a bit like ethnic cleansing really

    But that in a nutshell is what you yourself do all of the time. I would reckon on here particularly and with supporters generally there are very few in favour of Ashley but conversely the majority in favour of Rafa.

    Now to prove a point to yourself and all of us just go back over say six months and count the number of anti Rafa posts you have begun compared to the number of anti Ashley posts all of the other posters have started.

    I'll bet a pound to a penny you dare not do that and if I lose the pound you dare not reveal the result.

    Why, because you enjoy yourself and Ashley to be in the "victim" slot.

    When I came back after the change, it was dead. Very few posters were on but it built up with myself and pboro as part of it and seemed fine.



    But posters are always trying to get him banned. He's not imagining it. I see it regularly and him citing bans is him saying what's good for the goose, kind of thing. And he's correct.


    Yeah I'm not too far behind...but why is that?
    Is it because you say it is or do you know something I don't from higher up?
    If I get banned then I get banned. I have absolutely no control over that.

    I'd like you to tell me why I am close to getting banned though. Let's see if the excuse is a good one.
    So Ghost and Pboro helped built the board back up again

    This is the same Ghost aka Wolfie who tried to destroy this board by having loads of user names similar to proper users and you spammed this board for weeks. When asked to stop you said you would continue till you brought the board down

    This is the same person or am I wrong.

    and the same poster that many have said they like

    and the same poster that like others on here some old mods etc
    that had multi user names

    it happens more than you think
    it still happens now
