You would swear that this was the official forum of the United Nations the way some people are so serious and glum.
All that happened was a few young supporters slagging each other off !
Not suitable for this site, really, but no need to go overboard on the handwringing either.
The indivdiuals concerned are banned, lets get back to normal, quickly.
Pa and we say the FAI is gone like Hitlers Germany. Ken Shabby hang ure head in shame!!!!!!!!!!!
Lads, i haven't been keeping track but i have definitely seen all of the warnings and PMs and toing and froing (sp?) trying to sort all this out ... over an extended period of time, all that is being asked (numerous times) is for people to cop on a bit. That is the bones of it .... lads, it aint that hard really to be fair.
if posters flout the rules, they are warned, suspended, then banned, as was the case with at least two GUFC posters. This was the correct course of action.
To effectively close the GUFC forum is very unfair, supporters rely on it for news and information. It is the second busiest in the First Division and is very important to the Supporters Trust. The vast majority of posters are well behaved.
We appreciate all the good work of the mods - but please, let us have it back !:)
I got a warning for a post on the GUFC forum which was meant totally tongue in cheek and i know that most of the posters will see it that way but some people need to mellow out a bit!
happened me too on eircom league forum coz i sed sumtin bout galway,fair enuff i suppose
Was that the betting one? If so, ffs, why would anyone warn you for that?:confused: I didn't see any Galway fans complain about it either.Quote:

Gustavo ... you were warned because someone complained, in fairness you must realise that it could have been seen as trolling, i know you mightn't have intended to troll but the fact is it was picked up that way.
Lads tension is high at the moment, if people just ease back a bit and try and avoid all the strife then it wont be a problem.
Exactly !!Quote:

The answer is [or was, merged now] two threads down. You couldn't scan the thread list before posting?Quote:

Magicme originally posted that in the EL forum Adam so they probably missed this thread.Quote:

adam
how about reopening both forums as a trial like the way they were and if things dont go well just close them permenantly....its the only soulution and people will comply...its not fu[king life or death
ok then i would appreciate it if you unmodded me from that forum then if thats the way you feel i couldnt be bothered dealing with that kind of rubbishQuote:

Its now well over a week and the Galway United Forum is still being blocked which makes it useless for spreading news about GUFC. Our forum was one of the busiest on here but now its ground to a halt!!!!!!!!
how about the mods for the forums taking over reviewing the posts? Im here mainly during normal working hours (8- 5)and GalwayFrancis is around in the evenings so the posts would be getting through much faster?
Its only an idea, but the block would still be in place but with less of the hassle for both sides? If it doesnt work then lock them up and throw away the key, if it does work after a period of time the block can be removed and everthing can go back to normal.
If you're an example of the type of poster we're turning away gufct, I won't be shedding a tear. Why don't you be off to another site?Quote:

Terry was doing a reasonable job moderating our forum. The problems stemmed from a small minority of young supporters trolling on other fora.
Ken, our forum is very important to the GUST for fundraising, buses, lotto etc. We would be lost without it. Please let Terry and GF moderate it on a trial basis.
PD.
Sorry Patrick, but Galway fans were very nearly as guilty of trolling in the Sligo forum as Sligo fans were of trolling in the Glaway forum. It wasn't equal, but it wasn't fair off.
Terry, do you want to mod it again? GalwayFrancis? Will you make sure it doesn't happen again?
Sorry to sound like a bitch like, but I just don't have time for this.
adam
HI Adam,
All trolling was dealt with on the GUFC forum, the problem with the GUFC supporters that were taken the mick occured on other forums which were out of my hands. There was two main culprits for us that are now (i hope) banned premanently. I can guarantee that Myself and GF will control our forum to the highest, strictest level from now on to make sure it stays this way.
Its like the old saying, you dont know what you have until its taken away from you.
Terry
I think everything would ba alot easier for both GUFC fans and the admin team if Terry and Francis were moderators.
I think that's unfair Adam. Both fans were equal. I can think of 3 Rovers fans who trolled the Galway forum regularly and I can think of 3 Galway fans who done the same with our forum. To say that it was our fans more so is wrong. It was definitely equal and in fact, this whole thing with modding the forums came about when two particular Galway fans trolled. Things had calmed down until these two lads(I think we all know who I'm on about) started it up again. I'm not trying to blame people or cause a row here but I just think it's unfair you saying that we did it more.Quote:

Same goes for the Rovers forum if Gustavo and Paraic are interested.
sligoman, I'm just going by what I saw, and had to deal with.
adam
Ok, that's fair enough then!Quote:

thanks for waiting for me to reply, before re-moderating me, but i'd love to take over the job again. i can garauntee myself and terry will do a better, stricter job this time round.Quote:
