Problems with The Ram Inn

[MadAmster]

I know this is standard supprt desk stuff but, very often, when things either stop working on my phone or they react differently to normal, switching it off and then back on generally does the trick. You may care to try that Ramshank

That happens a lot, try replying using the Go Advanced button rather than Post Quick reply, one often gets logged out but your post is posted!

I'm now using an old tablet with no probs at present 🤞

You're probably like me OTR no good with modern tech so hoping my old stuff keeps going!

Regarding the semi-hijacked part of this thread, regarding moderation. There’s been calls for moderator adherence to a footy mad decreed ‘set of rules’, which I’ll confirm is difficult as there were none offered when I became mod and none evident on the site. However, be careful what you wish for in any case. Looking at our junior partner (lol) in Rams forums, DCFC fans, their set of rules state ‘prohibited content - politics, religion’. Their mods have recently locked a fairly well mannered discussion which broke this rule, it would be easy for me to piggy back on DCFC Fans rules, but my guess is that some would be upset by that.

A bit of an over simplification perhaps, but not entirely misleading…the average response count to the top 10 ‘stickies’ is 33.4 while the average response count to the top 10 ‘non stickies’ is 1392. Food for thought?

My point wasn't around post volume, it was around the impossibility of satisfying posters who don't want no moderation, don't want moderation based on a reasonable offering from the moderator, and don't want the reasonable set of rules used by another comparable forum, the relative higher popularity of which may be partly driven by its list of prohibited content. I'd suggest we should continue 'as is', especially as there appears to be some sort of 'Christmas 2014'-style outbreak of friendliness occurring at present.

I agree, (again!!), its a genuine attempt to foster a better atmosphere on here irrespective of the subject being discussed and maybe that will encourage more participation from others, though the issues with posting on here may counteract that somewhat.

My friendliness doesn't extend to one poster, but as he is on ignore and I don't respond to his posts that is not an issue. There is after all a limit to my tolerance and understanding.

I know David locked the thread to do with Stephen Pearce and what he supposed to have said on a night out.

I guess on dcfcfans it's probably the subject of more scrutiny due to the volumes. I know Mel used to look on there and would give David a nudge if anything was posted that was untoward relating to him or the club.

The problem with politics over there is when it was allowed it was a full time job moderating because of the volume of posts. Insults fly all the time. Bans were abundant.
