Feel free to point out the threads where I have instigated a drift by "dropping my message in".
The important bit here is where ininstigated the drift.......I think you'll find in a great many cases I am not the cause but just an easy Target.

For the sake of clarity:

• there were a number of complaints received about the state of this board – from a number of different people. Not just from one person and not just about one specific issue;

• the complaints did not just centre around the behaviour of any one individual poster – despite what his ego would have you believe;

• the ban on that particular poster was not connected to the issues around this board – and neither was the decision by a number of moderators across these forums to make that a 'ban on sight'.

I hope that helps.

At times you can only bite your tongue for so long!

Missed that at first gutters, in the middle of all the other stuff, but now I notice that you've re-introduced "the clique" despite being quite unable to define it when challenged previously.

At least this thread's led to me getting round to putting the full quotation from Rosa Luxemburg on here - just hope it doesn't lead to me suffering her dreadful fate!

An extended self justifying diatribe containing a pack of lies.

1. I have never complained to a moderator despite you frequently suggesting that I have (although I sometimes wish I had done).
2. I have no idea what remarks regarding McKay and Hughes you are referring to. The insults I refer to are not what is said about McKay and Hughes but what is said about other posters on here that dare to disagree.
3. You don't "take the mickey", you sneer, deride, and insult.

And while we're on the subject.
Personally I would refrain from using the phrase 'bell end' on here, but nevertheless this is an insult describing how someone is behaving towards others. You can choose to change the way you behave.
The word 'retard' is a derogatory insult used to describe someone with learning difficulties. This is how they were born, it is not a choice they have made. They cannot choose to change it.

If you still don't 'get it', I'll let the girl in the photo spell it out for you.

Frankly the use of the word r***** should have you banned for life. Someone who works, or claims to work in marketing - would you use that in an ad campaign? Would you use it with a client? I work predominantly in the public sector, your emails would as a minimum have got you suspended, more probably for the R word, rightly sacked. If anyone associated with me had used that word I would have reported them. If someone working for me had used that word I would have dismissed them and then said why.

Unacceptable on every level since, 1959, but I realise you live in NZ

The Bottom line here Perry.....and the rest of you, is that I have done and am prepared to do more for the club than most of you have or will,

Before I say Drone, could I invite you to support with facts the statement " I have done more for the club than most of you will have"

drone

Oh dear, back to (ab)normal.

Not really merely asking him to support the comment that he has done more for the club than most fans. I support Mintball coming on here but pity that she had to.

I'm not listing things I have done (again) so you can the tell me that you have or you know of fans who have done more.
It is good to know that your entire qwerty is working though and that you grasp the concept of debate.....although you've got a ways to go before you shake off that drone tag.

That was an interesting illustration of part of the problem, I suspect.

We can now await his next attempt at registering.

Welcome back Minty, a much needed intervention. I started a thread a few weeks ago expressing my concern that Cowgirl Nostalgists's constant relentless personal abuse of David Hughes was potentially libellous. I asked him nicely to clear off otherwise he might find himself in serious trouble.
These morons aren't interested in the AUP, they have their own agenda. Any help you can offer to rescue the forum would be welcome

Minty's done her bit Ronnie, so how about posting something on this rescued forum?
Though preferably not something that abuses other users as "morons", which I understand to have been just the kind of post that led to complaints to the mods and so brought Minty in among us..

There's the rub.

He's not actually interested in debate just shutting me up.

With threats if need be.
