There is still no way Steve or myself could post our view on Cleggbook on the Dons group without Nigel B and Jim W jumping all over it, based on personality alone.
This forum is still a safe haven for negative views free from
those who use ad hominem as their modus operandum.
Cleggbook is still a vehicle of bile.
Of course it doesn't particularly bother me, but even so spats are really bad to be involved in.
People want to voice views free of insults...sensible, responsible views I mean.
Cleggbook is far more populated with more variety, this forum is a quiet backwater.

But yes I have noticed the improvement in the Dons group since the changes...so well done.

The simple way is that if it not a post about RUGBY...or connected activities, it gets deleted.
Questions regarding peoples' attitudes or positivity or negativity are deleted.

YOU CAN NOT TALK ABOUT THIS UNLESS YOU HAVE LACED BOOTS, or whatever

The true art of debate is to persuade others that your view is right and their view is wrong - not castigate someone on a personal level for having a different view.

Learning to disagree without falling out is something all forms of Social Media seem to struggle with.

I come on here because I like to listen to all views, share thoughts and ideas with others and make the whole experience of being a Dons' fan a better one. This is the only Social Media I take part in. I don't do Twitter/Facebook or anything else.

Thanks Brian - I go agree I have stalkers who must just wait for me to post on facebook.

It has improved recently and there is a lot less of a challenge to people validity to comment which I do appreciate Jemmo, I do find here you do get a more balanced and reasoned discussion on here, Social media is very "instant reaction" rather than a well thought out argument.

Reminds me a lot of the Monty Python "I've come here for an argument" sketch.

Do you want the 5 or the 10 minute argument?

I am here for the full half hour!

Here's a question.....why do the same people get to be moderators and why was I never invited.

Based entirely on looks

That's what I suspected.
I have the necessary brianpower.
