It's easy to start a row on there. All you have to do is disagree with someone.
They dont like it when newbies have opposing opinions do they?
True but it's almost like any forum that I've been on.
What I have noted over the years is that on the whole larger forums
have fairer moderators whilst the smaller ones are open to abuse by the power-hungry moderators.
Goes without saying that in no way am I referencing this site as don't really know the people here that
well, but from what I have seen, you are nice people.
A while ago I posted on a forum where one of the newer posters was an ex moderator from a small
site. He thought wrongly I hastened to add that the site could not manage without him. Posters left because of this
inept bloke. The poer of the ban button got to his head. Long story short he was eventually kicked out.
But hey, he started his own forum and a couple of easily led mates joined him and I believe he
posted as many other usernames to get things moving. But the tragedy was he had no one to ban, crap argue with other than himself.
So that forum died a death and then he joined another forum and gradually tried to take it over via the back door
by always taking threads off-topic with items about his cats and dogs and his useless football team, Stoke City
of all clubs. However, for whatever reason, he thought his team was the best and slagged off others that questioned him. Thankfully,
he forgot he was not the king anymore and the nice moderator initially let things slip, then a polite warning but when that did not work, the moderator
public humiliated the BS'er by telling him openly and frankly NOT to turn every topic/thread into a footy/pets thing. TBH, I ROFL.
Any ordinary poster would have left after that but this one had nowhere else to go and from what I've heard, he's changed his name to
post on other forums by parasites like this can't hide their real selves for long.
I run a forum, well a blog where I decide what goes on the site. On average I'd get about 7/10 posts a week. It's
all to do with control freaks and the people that post, read my site have thanked me many times and makes it all worthwhile.
I learn a lot from sites like this, EG, how others behave starting from the top of the food chain right down to the bottom of the barrel.
For what it's worth, if the picture is really you, and I have no reason to doubt that, makes talking/posting to all the more important
and I sincerely apologise beforehand if I have said, or posted something here that does not agree with you T&C's.
Thank you for allowing me to post on a site you manage/own as I'm not sure about who holds the key here but that is not important.

Thanks. Grrr, Biinny I hate Trolls I used to be so welcoming on forums. now I really hate posting in the welcome threads and avoid it till they normally have a few posts and even then it's just a begrudging "welcome"

Thought so, that polite persona got old even on DS.
He posted on SOL.
On dugs he's had countless id's, that long rambling post above was a dig at me with the references to animal pictures and football.
He's on here being nice to Syl but was calling her "Sly" on Dugs a couple of weeks ago.
He'll ruin this forum.
Yes, the digs at you were what made me realise. The post was long and I was glazing over, then thought hold on haha
Plus the dig at Syl.
I didn't see the dig at Syl aty first only the blatant Vicks digs. then had to go back and re-read to make sure haha. Im not with it today, yesterday was a louloou with all the kids in a bad mood and poor nan suffered. Not only with lack of sleep.
I've reread my posts and nowhere whatsoever have I, as you put it had a "dig at Syl." One of the reasons I am here is because of Syl's style of posting and moderation. If you want to twist what posters have said, carry on as usual. I challenge the little gang here to post the perceived "dig at Syl," and clearly state how this is.
The bottom line is this. Syl and Digger appear to be capable people and I will let them decide, especially, Syl as your attempt to twist my comments are directed at her.
As to who I am, fire away as this is no different to almost any forum that I have read and posted on.
The last thing I want to do is rock the boat, especially a small one where the team behind the scenes have put a lot of time and effort into it.
Syl, I'm no expert when it comes to typing, posting, grammar, content, etc. Should my post in any way be construed as a "dig" against you, then I apologise unreservedly as I did not set out to do that. We can all make typo mistakes as we are only human. Most of us have busy lives, family, work, burdens, commitments and do not set out to upset nice people. I would like to be liked as I do not go around insulting people in real life, nor would I do that to anyone that came across as a nice, decent type poster and especially one that does not feel that the world owns them everything.
I do fear that some posters want to twist what I have said and this can be easily done to almost any post that has more than a few words in it.
Thank you.

As this person says they know everyone of old then they will know that Syl always posts her pictures of herself so no need for for this comment.
"For what it's worth, if the picture is really you, and I have no reason to doubt that, makes talking/posting to all the more important"
its important to note that Twizstar has always had the hots for Lucian.
I have read the posts a couple of times, I dont see anything wrong with it tbh, my pic is me, and it's recent before anyone pipes up I post old pics....I take that as a compliment btw.
But no one has to take anyone word for anything on a forum, take people as you find them, make your own minds up, and treat people accordingly, hopefully with respect...that's all.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am glad that the Moderators here are fair and don't twist peoples words for their own benefits.
