Moderators not taking action

Achtung!! Achtung!!

Just letting you know there is some unruly behaviour going on in the managing rent rise thread. Take heed

 

No no please don't. I'm waiting on this thread with bated breath! It's like knowing Santa Claus is not true but still secretly hoping he is.. Same same with this thread, knowing it's rubbish and going to be a let down but still following it anyway..

 

Just get your popcorn and a comfy seat Greyghost

 

Beats watching paint dry..almost!!

I reported this guy at at least 1 week ago spruiking USA land, on the thread I started Atlanta USA

I think his post has yet to be deleted, his stuff is rubbish, time waster, what is the term, tyre kicker and spruiker combined.

 

I'm sure Sim has a long list of reported ppl he needs to get through.

I think he and the moderators do an excellent job. I'm sure we aren't an easy mob to manage.

 

Unfortunately what may be seen by one person as a gross breach of forum etiquette may to the mods just be an acceptable discussion between adults. It is very much in the eye of the beholder and I doubt the mods purposely ignore requests for moderation. More likely they deem them fine.

 

My experiance is also that the mods are pretty prompt if action needs to be taken. The times it stays up longer mean a) that action isn't required, or b) its a grey area so they are waiting on a group consensus from the other mods.

To be honest I think some people just need to get over it. While it is possible that things could be construed as a personal attack, most of the time its just a general comment. The whole world doesn't revolve around specific people - everything being said isn't nesscarily about them.

Whats the saying, build a bridge? Or use the ignore button. Plenty of options.

 

Storm in a tea cup comes to mind

 

Just finished reading 7 pages on this thread.... seriously people here have absolutely nothing to do (including me!)
It was like tuning Radio frequencies

 

Do we dare say the mods are now taking too much action?? with regards to everybody's favourite publican thread

And what's happening with the other crowd favourite star of David? We all know it's the same guy

These guys are going to get me booted with their malarkey!

 

Doubt it mate.

 

You have made the assertion that scientific opinion is the only criteria by which opinions can be validated. That isn't necessarily true . There is a moral perspective and a religious perspective and a few other I cant be bothered to think of.

Where do I stand , well of course scientific opinion is the only way to go and ill informed unscientific opinion is a silly stance to take , but still an opinion which you cant block because you don't like it

 

Am I the only one banned from that thread for 1 week?

 

Nope! It seems that I'm not allowed to post at all.

It appears that our publican can be as shifty as he likes and all the rest of us get punished for calling a spade, a spade.

 

I have been banned from the pub thread too - no message, just the ban stick. Perhaps someone is a bit touchy about 4 pages of posts that were deleted being commented on?

 

Me to! Gangster life
