RLfans or 'Crusaders-till-I-die' : Sun Apr 19, 2009 9:43 am  

As the title suggests, felt the need today to bin the Crusaders-till-I-die forum and post exclusively here.

Not averse to some aggro on messageboards, even from the moderators. But when said moderators hypocritically lecture others and ban them for doing the same things it is time to leave.

Hell it was NEARLY as bad as the idiot moderators on the BBC website.

RLfans only for me from now on. A bit more relaxed and adult attitude from the mods.

ap1717,

Yeah mate. I recall. You got banned for a month for saying nothing worse than the Ians say to others all the time.

Well their silly little fiefdom is five (so far) subscribers down.

guys i've tracked you all down. not hard i admit but hey.

i agree the mod's post about the prize for stupidest post was out of order and was more on the malicious side than the sarcastic side, Alex you crack me up i can argue till i'm blue in the face with someone and get called everyname under the sun and its all forgotten the next day. others are not the same. your ban i feel was a little harsh although i'm not sure of the full story.

All 3 of you contribute worthwhile if sometimes oppinionated views to the "other place" as for the youngster he does sometimes come out with strong posts without probably considering the impact of his words.( I know i was the same) this is just his age i'm now 27 and its taken me this long to actually think about what i say and how it will be reacted to.

i post here now and again as well as the other place and i'd ask you to come back and continue to express your opinions as you have done before. people are entitled to their opinions even if others disagree this is called being an individual, everybody who watches the games has a right to express their beliefs regardless of how others see them.

i'll pm the said mod in a bit and try and express my position as a neutral as i don't know any of you personally and have only met the photoman briefly last monday at pitchside.

the point of a forum is the ability to exercise free speech and opinion and for others to argue the point to a logical conclusion its called debating and its an essential to life. i disagree with cru111's statement however i 100% back his right to express it. firefly as for you calling the mod a tw@, what he said was out of line and i'll tell him that but what you said was almost as bad, and if you think i'm being a tw@ we can debate it over a drink at the cas game. (i'll buy)

Anyway i'm off now to pm said mod and express my feelings on this issue. as i said above all 3 of you in my opinion make a valid contribution to the other place and have the right to express your opinions as long as they are not racists ect. the mods should take into account the niavety of youth and cut them some slack.

the bottom line please come back...

Chubbs out.

NC do you live locally? its sad that you don't get to games is there anything we can do to help you out? a lift or anything

: Sun Apr 19, 2009 2:53 pm  

no probs alex i've pm'd the mod in question, trying to be as diplomatic as possible and will wait and see if anything comes back.
