Again, the moderation style is one of back-biting and sniping.

Poor show.

I bet that earns me my 10th "warning point". :roll:

Maybe. Can you help me?

You see you have only selectively quoted me and in isolation and without context I can see breaches for sure! It would be belittling and perhaps insulting.

Now if we put it in the context of the complete conversation - in that the play the post (ball) and not the poster (man) had been explained previously - one could argue that you had failed to understand and thus the extension would be you were not capable of understanding - however there IS another alternative and you would either have to decide between;

(A) it being accurate that you lacked the intellectual capability to understand the difference between "left field" ideas that are views on the St Kilda Football Club (such as those posted by CityWest in the past and can be debated properly through rebuttal) and "left field" approaches to denigrate or bait a poster which you encouraged and felt were acceptable as being "left field" in nature

Or

(B) you had the intellectual capability to understand the difference - in which case your posts have to be read in the context that they were written to bait me and encouraged others to bait in this manner.

I wonder which it is. I have no idea.

Perhaps you lack the intellectual capability - perhaps you were baiting ...

So which would you like it to be?

Also I shall ask Buckets to moderate this thread posts from today - and he can issue warnings as he sees for - including if he thinks I deserve one.

Refuse to answer the hard questions because you fear it may uncover the secret agenda and expose the real man.

You see Simon, I was right.

It's simply becoming a ping pong game with a few bad sports. Lock it.

Terrible thread.

Couldn't care less about CityWest. I have found his posts pessimistic and without any real validity. Seemed fair to question his allegiance. Long term Saintsational user and a seemingly reliable source Joffaboy was adamant that he was an Essendon supporter. Can't blame some of us for taking his word for it.

Okay, so now he's actually a St.Kilda supporter. Whoop-de-doo!

Many people on the forum disliked Barks4eva's posting. I have met him in person and regarded him a die hard Saints man, as well as a good bloke, yet I never felt the need to start a thread by trying to defend his Saintsational reputation. People can fend for themselves, can't they?


Curb your enthusiasm - you’re a St.Kilda supporter!!

It's been the quitest I've seen the place in 10 years of posting here. Probably will get a clearer picture of things in 1-2 weeks I reckon.

Curious why thread hasn't been locked?

Shouldn't the announcement have been made then the thread locked?

It's not like this issue is up for discussion.

Weird.

I once convinced a nice young Asian call centre girl that I was in fact a talking monkey, hired to answer the phone and take messages for my wealthy owners. She actually asked me if I really liked bananas. I told her I did but preferred steak.

True story.
