The factions.

There are factions and many of them are secret.

Myself and a few others on this forum are members of the exclusive and secret "Masters Club." We meet in the dressing rooms at Lidcombe Oval every Saturday at 2.30pm and slap each other around and trash the dressing room.

Do you have a secret handshake , wear blazers and have strange initiation procedures . (sorry that the Greens party)

Yes. The secret handshake is 25 slaps across the face with each hand.

No I was wrong it is definitely the LNP

And its okay for certain posters to have pot shots at others. Sometimes even the mods appear to condone it.

That's what I was alluding to when I said all opinions were equal but some opinions were more equal than others and yes compared to other forums I visit where mods are generally fairly impartial, given the nature of their responsibility, that doesn't seem to be the case with some mod comments I've seen here.

Just observing. Not siding or stirring up trouble.
 
All I was basically trying to say was Im sick of the Moltzen V Lui and Moltzen V Macckinnon and Moltzen V anyone else they care to include
Which in turn forces us to wade the troll posts, which one member even admitted to resorting to.
People bagging players games and de-valuing to further their troll opinions when that player clearly were one of our better on the night.
But apparently this makes for interesting reading and makes me a whinger….so be it.
Dunnio how many times Ive read in this thread everyones entitled to their opinion, many of those having a go at me for airing my opinion...go figure.
 
@Nix: again, please show where this is happening.

It's the same story year after year. People say this kind of stuff is happening, but no one can show where or when it happens.
Personally I'm more than happy for people like Ink to start these kinds of debates and as far as I'm aware every other mod is in agreement. It's a stark contrast to the 07/08 days where ANY negativity was squashed. Yet then people complained about the rules being too tight…

So if this behavior is so prevalent, why haven't people singled it out and brought it to the attention of the mods or forum-proper?

Willow so its ok for a moderator to do it is it?

not saying you…. i know you never have got involved in any of that.

If someone fires a shot across your bow, I think its fine for the other person to fire one back… Its when it starts dragging the thread into a personal slinging match, the Moderators start to delete or clean everything up...

To start such a behaviour, and then whinge like a little girl because the person you attacked was a moderator is pure childish!
 
Kul:
Prevalent is probably not the best term.
I dunno if your post was aimed at me, but a bit of ShtStrring and trolling now and then can lighten the mood of the joint, most people know when someones pobviously geeing up….but when its constant, is the bassis of someones argument in topics of all sorts that can lead to hijacking...thats where I think it can become an agenda.
It becomes tiresome
 
I've belonged to this forum forever and I just get a giggle out of some of the posters silly comments and personal incriminations. I think that some of the venom can be controlled a bit better by the mods but overall they do a good job.

Where it gets past the silly and bordering on the ridiculous is when the same posters sit at their screens and continually post nonsense after nonsense, post after post. This only happens because both parties feel belittled in some way and they must have the last say. When I look at how many posts some people have sent I get the feeling that a lot of it must be very trivial to the certain topic.

Be that as it may, I still get on here from time to time because it is a fine forum and I do pick up some valued information. Keep up the good work kiddies.
 
ink, the opposite mate, it's in your defence

as for prevalence, well some of the posts here seem to imply that this so-called culture certainly is.
i agree with your post though for the most part. Factions? not quite, though… anyway, each to their own

So watto its ok for you to say to people in the lui thread they have no idea if they pointing the finger at lui and when they fire one back at you then it gets deleted but funnily enough your comment of you saying i have no idea stays.Yep fair alrite
 
Its a generic comment, that wasnt a shot at anyone…. You decided to use for a personal shot brother.... I told you what I thought!

As to what got deleted in that thread, I can tell ya it wasnt me... I always like reading your posts whinging?!

No no I wasnt implying it was the opposite of ''in my defence'…just wasnt sure if it was directed at me.
Factions may be too strong aterm too...I dunno, groups, cliques...

Tiger4ever mate, i think you need to stop playing the victim a little bit. Your banging on about double standards on this forum but you show the same double standards, we all do mate. If a member you dont like has a go at someone you complain, but if it comes from someone you like, you dont say a word, in fact, you actually show support for them.

Now i dont want to bring other people in on this but just for an example, Tiger05 in my opinion, gets very personal towards Innk, and you support him on this. But if Innk does the same, and once again in my opinion no where near as bad as Tiger05, you complain about it. You cant have it both ways. Now im not bagging tiger05 or supporting innk, its just an example of the double standards we ALL possess, so i think its time you got off you high horse a little. You give as good as you get.

Now you and i go back a bit, so i know you'll take all this ok and probably give it back to me, but mate, with your total support of the club and players in any circumstance makes you a great candidate to use the "foe" option, i think you'd be a happier poster if you do this.

Yeah- I agree. Threads like this that are weak and childish shouldn't be allowed. Unfortunately some posters aren't part of my faction and therefore start threads like this one. It'd be better if they just went away but were stuck with them.

Tiresome. Unmanly. Call it what you will. Theres people like that out there in the real world.

Mate what you on where did i support tiger 05 giving it to ink.When do i say you have no idea and insult your intelligence or knowledge of the game where.

High horse i thought it was the other way around and i could use plenty of examples myself.

Put it simple we all have opinions but if someone doesnt agree with me i dont say they have no idea or put them down and if anyone wants to call me a sook i say they definantly dont know me from a bar of soap.

I dont have favourite players i love the club.example i said the other day if we have to get rid of gibbs ND FULTON then thats what we have to do and in reply tothat i was told i know nothing have no idea then i get angry.Im the same in real life not just hiding behind a pc.

Take your moderators hat of sirro and look at the thread.Keep sucking up you will make a admin very soon.
