Bring back the Demps

[Guest]

If @Kul has any commonsense he'll make the ban permanent. Demps has had more than enough chances on this forum and is unable to conform and post appropriately. Last night typified that.

Did he last a full 7 days? Or was it just a few hours short?

Bring back @Demps i barely knew ye.....

 

[Yossarian]

He swore he was a reformed man. What did he do this time?

Has there been an undertone to some of his (many) posts since his return?
Those that know him better than me might be better placed to comment.

He stepped over the line in a thread about a female NRL commentator. Kind of thing that is not acceptable in 2021 (if it ever was) and could open up the forum to legal issues. Just to be clear, it was about his views on her appearance.

Then we’d at least have the fun of picking his new identity when he came back like so many other punted ex members.

I have no idea why Demps got banned but I have no problems with the way the site runs.

Love the site and the people that run it but some of the rules on swearing are quite hypocritical

I agree with you here as well @innsaneink and as far as I'm concerned You can BS FMD and FFS all you like ..I reckon personally that is fine for a footy forum so I certainly won't be deleting any of those anymore.. swear words in Capital..yes

Cool.
BS is a common one for me in describing a ref's decision which is 90% of the time
Or even Balmain Soccer ?

Not for the first time either, the guy clearly has a disdain for women.

To be honest it extended further than just comments about her appearance.

Agree well run forum, sometimes you have to take the time to think about what you are about to say and in what form, seen the bulldogs absolute disgrace. Keep up the great work overseers

I love Demps, but sometimes it’s good to be free of him for a little while. Can be a bit much sometimes.

Apparently this is a privately owned site.
About time people realise the fans are the site. How about banning the half wit females the trolls and those comments too. Ban the trolls who repeatedly use negativity and abusive tones.
Banning people for a joke or a light hearted dig. I see why our pussy players can't perform pussy people running the show. Keep ur privately owned site for the trolls and halfwits and of course moderators.

lol mate what is your problem w females? There's like 1 on here and she's far from a halfwit, you might as well just call her out if you're going to do that so she can serve you up.

Oh! dear @brian clearly feeling a bit emasculated this morning by the minuscule number of us woman on the WTForum.

Care to elaborate on the half wit comment?

I have no idea why Demps got banned but I have no problems with the way the site runs.

Mods here are like refs..inconsistent, but they do it voluntary....so become a Mod if you can do better

Can't be everywhere at once without living on the forum either.

While we are on this topic of appropriacy for the forum I have noticed a lot more posts with either disguised swearing or actual mild swearing not being deleted in the last three weeks or so.

I had a post with disguised deleted about a month ago - it deserved it if the rule is absolutely no swearing but now I'm a little confused. Is some disguised swearing acceptable? Is mild swearing acceptable?
Could we have clarification around that?

There's more than one, and none of them are halfwits.

I can only really speak for myself but will no longer be deleting disguised swearing. It still breaches forum guidelines so if you do post in that manner you still run the risk of it being deleted.

OP is a hypocrite. He doesn't like the negativity on the forum but proceeds to call the team "pussy players".

Some of our best posters on here are female, not that should even be needed to be said.

I understand you don't have a problem with it 🙂

I do get it when people are venting frustration and sometimes go too far (done it myself) but given the site does try to accommodate all ages, genders etc am glad there are standards.

Kul - what are your thoughts on it these days? Happy with whatever you decide but just seeking clarity so I can stay within the guidelines.

What are the odds of getting banned after a win ?

Bring him back after our next win 😂😂😂
