I was refering to the whole board.

Marked Man ..... you raised that is point and you are totally entitled to.
Can i ask why you think in this particular it is biased towards Cork people ??

Not bias, but oversensitivity to the slagging of Cork. For example, there were two threads binned and locked last week, which slagged of remarks by Cork fans to the effect that they were one of the only real sets of fans in the league. One of those threads--which I actually thought was sort of funny--had its title changed to "unfunny rubbish." Add that to the question that started this thread (why can't you say c'a'w'k on this forum), and it seemed to me that someone with mod powers can't take a joke.

..........

Still have to say though .... for all the bias out there, how come no one ever complains about it, but whenever the opportunity arises people are straight in with it. Its like .... and i'll admit i could be wrong here .... its like people pull out that card when they are losing a debate or whatever. I mean, if there was bias, why wouldn't you complain about it at the time, and not drag it up weeks later, conveniently !!

i brought it up and asked a question about why a thread was locked and moved with it's title changed and got no answer.
I don't mind the mods being Cork fans, but I think that some of the stuff that has been pulled or locked has been much less inflammatory than other stuff that has been allowed to continue. For my money, anything offensive should be deleted but, there have been instances (eg the unfunny rubbish thread) where action was taken needlessly.

Check out this thread for an over the top response. (not Cork bias, but needless censorship) Is there any wonder people don't complain when we're threatened with a ban if we do?

Can you post up that thread ?

Any thread that i have locked, and i'd say 99% of the time its because someone asks for it. To my knowledge, there have been two threads lock here in months and both were reopened again.

Will you post that up ? ..... to be honest, i just p!ssed off when people start throwing comments about and are nowhere to be seen when they are actually proved wrong. Personally ... i'd have more time for people who make a decent argument for their point. Just throwing it out there and leggin' it just aint worth the pixels .... and its the same people all the time !!

No being funny now like but ... BD knows adam is a mod .... and then posts that .... come off the stage .... "ban me ... please ban, please" !!

Here.

Thread was moved from the league section to "Rubbish". Title was changed to "unfunny rubbish" and the thread was locked. I assume this one and the previous one are the two you're talking about?

On the other point, we all know the mods, does that mean we're not allowed to disagree or slag them off? There are plenty of threads that disappear way off topic or where people get personal, but yet the two threads that were locked (one a serious attempt to discuss on-field violence) were done so because they irritated a mod, not because they were in any way offensive.

So so sad...as always..


Dodge...did it ever cross your mind that us so called "Corkies" would not be interested in a St Pats forum??..i mean why would we want to read the forum of a small little club?..

Here.

bigmac, you'll see yourself i actually posted in that and Colm soon after ... it was fine until people started giving out about it and reffering to it in other threads. I dont know if you remember but there were about five threads all cross-referencing each other at that time. This one probably should have been binned/merged at the time but it wasn't as people were getting shirty in all the other threads so we left it .... i was PMing Vitruvian Man after that and all was cool.

No ... that wasn't one of them. I actually cant remember now, it was discussed in the mods forum, and they were reopened and the issues were resolved. We weren't sitting on our árses like !!

Just on that thread above, as i said ..... BohDiddley knew Adam was a mod and, imo opinion pushed the boat out. I wont comment on it but i will ask .... What you you do ?? ...... in all fairness, a bit of common sense wouldn't go astray at times.

On the other point, we all know the mods, does that mean we're not allowed to disagree or slag them off?

bigmac .... work away fella .... but be warned, i'll give as good as i get !!
Seriously ... if its within reason and not p!ssing people off, then its fine imo.

And again ..... if you have a problem, say it ..... if there is something i have said thats out of order then get it off your chest. A quick PM would sort it out !!

There are plenty of threads that disappear way off topic or where people get personal, but yet the two threads that were locked (one a serious attempt to discuss on-field violence) were done so because they irritated a mod, not because they were in any way offensive.

Going off topic is fine.
Locked because they p!ssed off a mod .... NO .... there was a discussion in the mods section. Myself and Colm's opinion were to leave them open, i had then closed them because people were screaming about them in other threads and a few in that thread aswell.

When we took another look, it boiled down to people giving out about mods/corkies in the thread .... and there actually wasn't anything there from corkies, barr one or two comments TOTALLY unrelated to the reason people were giving out about. In short ..... when opened, people giving out, when closed people were giving out, when opened again ..... people were ... wait for it ...... giving out !!

Lads .... at that point i give up .... there is actually no winning, but alot of people being irresponsible. I dunno what to say being honest.
