After such a tragic week do posters have to sink to name calling and back biting. In reference to Warnock press conference.
Absolutely shocking.

Ruining the board. Too many threads deteriorate this way. Unless the Boss does something I think people will stop using the board. I've been on this forum since '98 or '99 and it's currently the worst that it's been in that time.Quote:

Tan and Co announced possible legal action, and yesterday Warnock revealed he had previously flown with the pilot. This is how events become intertwined, but it is up to the posters to be civil with each other.
Unifornately it will never happen as this kind of behaviour has been going on for ages. It seems that people form groups, ignore what another person has to say, and then verbally attack them. It's really pathetic that it has all come down to this.
You think you do, but I really think you don’t. I think this is the best example. It was so easy understanding what was meant, and then the wolf’s come out in packs making it out to be something it’s not.Quote:

And it’s not something new. And it’s not only here.
I think that's true, it's just more noticeable at times like these.Quote:

I’ll try to be a bit more on top of things going forward.
Can I ask anyone if they feel a poster is getting personal or if they see this thing happening please PM me.
Maybe you can have a red and yellow card system, or something similar. I wouldn't mind receiving one myself if I was out of order. I usually try to keep it together, but when you have a mob baiting you, sometimes it's not so easy to keep your cool. I can debate ideas all day long, but some people are only interested in the verbals and getting a reaction.Quote:

There is a red/yellow type system. I’ll try to figure it out.Quote:

Social media, especially Twitter, is vile at times. I use it for football stuff mostly, and getting news. But the speed at which people resort to the most horrendous abuse and unacceptable comments is ridiculous.Quote:

Some of them involved are half-intelligent but act like bullies, they can't reason or debate without taking it to a personal level. One or two others who seemingly have a better IQ (maybe not EQ though!) appear to take great delight in turning the screws and humiliating other posters in any way they can, ultimately the same....bullies!
They do show a common theme in being quite prolific posters, perhaps that's why this forum cuts them some slack, I don't know.
It's tiring to be honest, from the moment certain posters join a thread, you know it's only a matter of time before it all turns sour - it's so predictable.
I used to think that those who said this message board was going downhill were being a bit dramatic, however, I'm beginning to think they're right.
This message board had its hey day a long time ago. It's a shadow of what it used to be. Looks like *****'s forum is more popular.
