Almost... Spike was picking on me in the Chelsea v Palace thread so I dobbed him in to powers that be but in all honesty I nearly left the forum in disgust.. 

You did the right thing. He needs to be brought down a peg.

I get this and I'm not advocating to broaden it,  but for everybody its also worth considering that people who are new to forums  (or even to a particular forum) are raw and have not gone through the learning curve and maturing process that most users on here have. So we should give them the benefit of the doubt and a bit of time to get up to speed rather than drive them away in a relatively elitist manner if their initial posts are pretty ignorant. 

 

 

i remember when i was new to this forums, O'Brien and the rest ganged up on me.   i was angry at first but then i realized that it was only a tyrannized baptism.    :)

 Same here. But not everyone will decide to hang around.

What part was the bullying part? The weird asking for pics like some sort of pervert that's had porn websites somehow blocked off their website (sorry FOYM... but it came off like that)? Or the aftermath of being told to stop text talking and being irritating? I felt that only the perving part really involved her gender, rather than being told to... follow the rules of the forum? Maybe some of the language was a bit harsh, but she was also pretty indignant at being told not to use text talk.

Having said that, it's good to have rules preventing members from abusing each other based on racist, sexist, religious, (etc), reasons.

yep, this bit. 

As for the 2nd bit, they've always been there. I must admit it's great to be part of a community of so many members where in all honesty, it's rare we have to enforce any punishment where someone has abused another member for those reasons you mention (or other reasons for that matter). There's the odd bickering/arguing but it's not like they last for days or the fact it gets serious regularly. 

For the most part, members are respectful of others here which is why it was a bit disappointing to see how it went at the weekend with the new member. But you live and you learn. And as Rab stated, this notice has been welcomed with a lot of support across the board, which is a good thing :)

My name mentioned many times but not once with a '@' so I'm notified that I'm being talked about. 

I think everybody would appreciate less of the bullshit beating around the bush happening here. It's clearly an issue with what I said.

Now, I'm going to start off with an apology to anybody who I may have offended by what I said. I wasn't serious, it was clearly a joke in the context of the post BUT I appreciate that it has fallen flat and in turn I'm being made out to be some sort of pervert by many of you on here. 

That being said, I don't believe that I was the reason she left this forum. I think it was @Storts & @DeadLinesman getting on her back over spelling. Not once was it mentioned to her that it was a rule of the forum. Instead, she received some abuse from both members I've mentioned and like anybody she reacted with basically a 'fuck you' and it spiralled.

I've nothing else to say than it was obviously just a bit of banter on my part and that I regret if it's any part of the reason she has left.

Excuse me?! I did nothing of the sort. I sought to wind up Phil calling him a bully and annoying him with bad spelling. 

Your weird vendetta has to stop. You’ll be hearing from lawyers

My edit was too late.

I bet you know the difference between 'you're' and 'your' though, Rab.
