On line abuse , having an opinion surely isnt on line abuse

On another thread Forest Green Bluebird has brought up the fact there is a campaign to stamp out on line abuse , directing it towards one of our own posters who posted a rather savage opinion of our wannabe manager .

Is that on line abuse ? Are we all guilty of on line abuse when we say such and such has had a bad game or we dont rate them as a footballer on here?

Surely on line abuse is sending them a direct message on their own accounts?

Interested to hear others opinion , perhaps going forward, posting anything negative about the people involved in the club will become a no no.

Cardiff Magistrates Court would have a field day picking through some of the threads on here. Mark Drakeford could have made a million during 20mphgate:hehe:

I’d imagine they’re more thinking along the lines of directly messaging a player “fcking kill yourself you *insert homophobic/racist slur*”

Rather than posting on a message board “should be burying those chances, useless striker”

Me too Kev .
I just watched the video to go with the campaign . What was posted here was a tad harsh but it wasn't directed personally at the manager or made reference to his sexuality , race or creed .

It's online! plenty of peeps on here with very ....hmm right leaning views that are happy to deal it out.

Take a squint at the Alternative section. It's so bad there is no room for debate

Bit of a selective take that is!

Look back at the post I replied to:


"True, but first of all Tan will need the operation to get Rizas nose from out of his arse

FFS what a grovelling twat, have a bit of self respect Riza

Still if you haven’t got the ability to do the job, acting like some sycophantic idiot might work"


What part of that 'abuse' was not directly aimed at the manager?

All of it.

None of it was posted on any of Riza’s personal social media accounts.

There is a distinct difference between posting opinions on an online forum and posting personal abuse on an individual’s social media accounts.

I can really see Riza avidly reading this board and getting upset over it!

People being upset for other people over other people's opinions (who in the main couldn't give a fuuck) get on my tits.

Obviously racism, homophobia etc should be challenged but people are taking it down to fine details.

It's a message board not a student unions debating society.

Anyone who takes anything on here too seriously needs help.

A poster on here found my real name and started searching for personal information about me to dripfeed; my name, whereabouts I live, even what I studied at uni, as if anyone else cares about this. He was told to knock it off by MM or he'd be banned.

Don't underestimate some of the nutjobs who are addicted to this place.

Wait until you get one who writes to your boss to complain about you or parks his car outside your office in a bid to intimidate you.

Those were the days.

I did say it was a little harsh .

I wasn't having a go I just wondered if I was so detached from what is right and what is wrong when making comments on a message board.

I watched the video that you linked , the type of person that I felt they are targeting are lacking in certain qualities , probably very low self esteem that gets some perverse joy out of trying to belittle others.
And of course bigots , who generally lack intelligence , it's the clever ones you need to watch...


This isn't CCFC,S board , if it was the comments would have had a different connotation.

Kanga’s solicitor is amassing reams & reams of evidence, all futile when a court deems every statement on here to be true.

All of it IMO. However if you wrote the same thing about me I wouldn't be offended or consider it 'online abuse'. But there are better ways to say the same thing :biggrin:

Agreed it would easily pass the 'fair comment' test :thumbup:

His envelope full of evidence missed the post box slit, so it's fine.

Get a grip ffs.

Posting that they think someone is a grovelling twat and a sycophantic idiot is hardly “online abuse”.

ahhh the good ol' days, he even took a photo of a newspaper to prove he was there on that day..

:hehe:

those days must've been so difficult to moderate.

There's certainly some selective memories going on here

And if the opinion of someone of wether calling a manager a particular adjective is that it's just banter or not abuse because it's an " opinion " on a forum as opposed to directly sending them an e mail is simply not correct

I must retract my previous comment.

In no way did I intend to discredit the area of Beddau and/or it's local residents.

I see now that my comments where insensitive and I am very truly sorry to any offence I caused, particularly to the two gentlemen involved in the skirmish.

Although I have absolutely no plans to visit Beddau neither in the near or distant future, I would like to place on record that this has been an education and wish Beddau well.
