New season, new features, new forums?

[TH63]

Ok. After seeing the replies I'll put up a match thread a couple of days ahead of a game. Will also sticky a score predictions thread to run alongside. I may add an announcement with links to other clubs forums so you can have a couple of clicks to check out other teams boards.

There is an infraction system that we've never used. I'm going to try and keep on top of threads and I will issue infractions if people deliberately troll, derail or abuse / post insensitive stuff.

This is a real tricky area to moderate between comedy, insensitivity, etc. But I'll try. Infractions come with a points award, run up 6 points and you get a ban. Maybe set it for 48 hours.

I don't know what happens when an infraction is issued. I guess you get notified. I will issue a couple tonight as tests. From tomorrow they will be real. Might work, might not.

Oooh, I can see people on five points making sure they get the sixth on a boring Wednesday morning in order to give themselves a clean slate for a few drunken rants on the weekend.

I assume there will still be the option for a straight red?

The equivalent of picking up a fifth yellow before a league cup tie.

Just noticed that at the bottom of the window of my previous reply I've got a little yellow card, if I click on it it tells me why I've received the infraction.

Once I've reviewed the video I'll be launching an appeal.

Oh and you also get a PM, giving you a reason. I've now got two yellows

If it can happen to the chief inspector of the ccmb morality police then it can happen to anyone.

Looking at my profile, there's a tab for infractions.

When I click on it, it tells me I've got a yellow - 0 points for a reply in this thread and a Red - 3 points, for insulting another member (Telling Nugent he could cash in his flex voucher at a home game for the following home game)

Seems to be different icons for mobile and full site.

I was testing on your username

Purely at random of course?

Yeah, I got that Mike, was just giving you feedback as you seemed unsure about what notifications users were given.

I notice the cards and points haven't been rescinded mind!! Due to fall off at the end of the month

[Llanedeyrnblue]

Where's Saturdays match thread then?

[Kris]

All Mike has said is he doesn't want the match and prediction threads derailed I don't know why people are getting their knickers in such a twist

Maybe some are scared of being excluded from posts that sit at the top of the board. What with them having zero interest on football an' all.

[Kris]

Jokes are funny. You're not.

It needed saying.

[Kris]

Maybe make a joke section so the posters who don't add anything to a thread other than contantly spoil it with their silly jokes and puns will hopefully go there.

Off topic posts in threads should be deleted.

I mean, how often can :thunbup: or :lincon: be funny and/or relevant?

On the bluebirds forum Otto (Blue in the Face) came up with the idea of having a section for player threads where each player had his own thread. I thought that was a decent idea.

How about man of the match votes? Run for 48 hours after a game, league table for players who won?

[thehumblegringo]

Anything that will get more football threads is a yes from me

I like that idea

On another forum, they have a sticky listing all the live games on tv that week. Not sure how they do it, but it's handy.

I know Blue in the Face started that Youth development thread last season, but maybe we should have a separate under 23/ youth match thread just to read a report on their respective matches.

[emjayblue]

Speaking of which the U23 fixtures have just been released.
