Poor Morrissey, frothing at the mouth with faux outrage - this didn't really work out the way you'd hoped did it...?

Quote: Les Norton "The user name of the OP, I assume, is named in tribute to the greatest lyricist of all; Steven Patrick Morrissey'"

Who was a moaning, soft-, vegetarian Rag mope who constantly whinged about how bad life was through music. Heaven knows I'm miserable now knowing how society is so soft and easily offended or even faux-offended or offended on behalf of others just to be seen as making a fuss for the right of society.

Quote: morrissey "Wakefield board.

Topic - problems with million pound game - now locked.

****snipped for space****

What has really irked me, however, is that particular board's moderator response to this - instead of questioning some seriously EDL mind sets on there - they've decided it's all "trolling and hysteria" pretty much burying it, I believe, rather than challenging potentially illegal and prejudice behaviours by their board members.

As the title says - get a look while you can - make up your own minds and I'll be interested how this is perceived on what I always thought was a more insightful and balanced board within rlfans.'"


So, I guess I should reply as I am the Mod.

I'm happy to be questioned, as long as it's done correctly. I've reread my post, and to be honest I'm ok with it.
I would refer the opening poster to my advice in my comment on the thread.

Quote: morrissey "Ok, I'm pretty sure no one is intending to shoot anyone. It's an emoticon. Get a grip.
If anyone is offended by any posts they can report them and the mods will be alerted to take a look.

Don't start an argument by name calling. It makes it worse.
Let's not overuse our outrage just for the sake of it.
I don't see anything worth deleting but I'll keep the thread open so people can comment whether the car park is clear.
Let's not get political about it.'"


Surely if someone is offended by a post they would prefer the conversation to be stopped rather than taking it to another board to take it up again?

Please feel free to PM me to discuss, or PM administration if you feel you can't.
What I'd prefer you not to do is start name calling again but that's your choice, but I must remind you more firmly not to talk about another poster's identity in any way. That is a strict rule which will have to be enforced by any moderator. It will be on the Wakefield forum.

I'll leave moderation of this thread to the other Mods
It's no big deal and I'm in no way offended but I'd have thought the rugby on show at the moment was a more interesting topic.

You're absolutely right - it didn't.

However, most of posts against this have been from Wakefield yet again (which kind of enhances the issue - originally I just wanted to illustrate the persistent bigotry of single supporter and the brushing under the carpet of moderator involved - who I suspect is an cahoots with - especially on the back of their defence on here as I have provided next to no information on BDL's personal identity but you only have to look at a few of their posts and other members on that board to find out who it is - seemingly, it's fine to all know who someone really is on here until they potentially get themselves in bother then it's hush-hush).

You should have left this subject as a parochial spat, bringing it to the attention of a wider audience has just brought more ridicule upon yourself.

Cahoots?? icon_lol.gif

If you have an issue with the moderation of the topic, you are of course free to speak to site admin.
As far as I'm aware you haven't - and this topic has left you open to ridicule.

You are also making silly accusations.

Quote: Wildthing "Cahoots??
I can handle the ridicule - I was having these sort of arguments 10 and 20 years ago challenging racism and homophobia, I know (like I did then) that casual ridicule against myself and more importantly those being persecuted, would eventually be right in the end.

Enjoy the latest bashing of scapegoats but remember you'll always need to find new ones once you're shown up for what you really are.

Wonder what you make of your more enlightened fellow Wakey fans who were disgusted by BLM both on your open forum or in PMs? Or shall we conveniently over look dissent from within your own ranks and turn this into a one-man war. I'm starting to feel like Corbyn!

So 10 and 20 years ago you were starting arguments with people that weren't actually racist or homophobic then?

If your cause is to rid the world of stereotypes and hatred, you or harming your cause with your approach. Your outrage is misplaced and ignorant and more ironically you are going along the path of assuming it's a Wakefield thing (isn't that stereotyping?). I'm not from Wakefield and neither are a lot of the people commenting here. To even begin thinking their is a conspiracy is paranoia at its worst.

There are no battles need to be fought here. Wind your neck in. Can you even remember what you were fighting about?!

Just looked back at BLM's post about immigration/refugees (where it states sending them back on a boat) - and what do you know? It ends again with the hunting/shooting emoticon.

I'm assuming these offensive reactions to minority groups are going unchallenged by Wakefield moderators who are quick to lock threads and ridicule opponents to such posts - whilst ensuring they're the ones who get the warnings and reminders about forum rules etc.

Still wondering why I'm presuming 'cahoots' - it's either that or an illustrative signifier of morals and values.
