There will always be some grey areas that will come down to personal judgement. So we are back to my comment "Or will you dictate as and when you decide on an ad hoc basis?" then? All moderation is on an as hoc basis. We all have other things we'd rather be doing.

Sorry Hugo (and thank you) you misinterpret my use of ad hoc; I appreciate you are not there all the time. I was referring to exactly what you have replied with - "grey areas"; which will be dealt with ad hoc. I really don't know how you put up with most of the replies to this thread. Much respect to you all.

The last 24 hours or so haven't been that pleasant on here, so, thanks to the mods for trying to improve things, without getting too heavy handed.

I love and respect everyone on gaschat except when I'm having a tantrum, then it's everyone else's fault 🙂

Jesus f**king wept. Just close the forum fanboy . Who's fanboy? Sounds like fun! The Gashead who puts up the money to keep this forum running. It's a pity quite a few on here don't appreciate that, perhaps then they may self moderate there selves and refrain from the behavior that this thread was put up to address. It's a pity that the vast majority on here including the serial offenders who this thread is referring to don't cough up £10 and join the FFSC, after all they were at the forefront of setting Gaschat up. I would suggest no three strikes and your out, just quite simply pay your tenner to the FFSC or your out! Simple as that.

So we are back to my comment "Or will you dictate as and when you decide on an ad hoc basis?" then? ah right, now your game is clear. You're not just nitpicking you're spoiling for an argument. Your tone and language suggest you're after a free speech moderators are dictators fight. Please just save your breath and show some respect for the moderating team that pay to keep gaschat running for everyone who uses it. So, as 68 explained later in the thread, your opinion of him was wrong, maybe you are not always right about who and what people are ? I am not having a go, just pointing out what people seem on a written page is not always that obvious. I know I double guess people wrong on here, the idea of written words with no voice inflection is a mine field and that is why I would never want the job of a Mod, they really are doing a job with no pay and getting grief 24 hrs a day. In short, if I have offended anyone I am sorry and as others have offended me I guess they never really meant it either , I am now going by the 'read it, then give it 5 minutes before a reply' That might work better. I have looked back over the last few days and seen so many miss read, miss understood posts that it explains a whole lot. Again, this is not a go at you Licky, it just seemed a good starting point. Have a nice day every one .

A great post from Roverdrive and an unfortunately all too familiar response. You will never please everyone.

Genuine question about the forum / modding
why are pictures of naked, near-naked, or suggestive women allowed on here.
makes it a minefield of knowing if I dare look at the forum at home, or in public areas.
And on a higher level it's also pretty sexist and generally off putting.
could it be easily stopped with some sort of picture / footer filter?

Can we have some comment from the mods on whether the continued repetition of deliberately destabilising and completely unsubstantiated (after 2 years with absolutely no evidence) rumours are deemed to be Rovers related or not?
If we're looking for a source of bad feeling in the last few weeks my opinion is that those rumours - which have been repeated by the same posters on several threads covering a variety of topics including potential target transfers, so it's not just a case "don't like it, don't read the New Beginning threads" - are a significant contributor.

Not as a moderator, but as a poster.... I personally make a mental note of "ITK" posters and over time I've been able to make a more informed decision about who is giving good info and who is full of sh**. To this end, ITK and rumour threads are valuable and interesting. I also hear things from time to time but never post them here, but again, some of the BS posted here can be very useful to complete the bigger picture. Sometimes it's the lies that help expose the truth.

Yeah, I think a crackdown on some of this stuff on Gasworks (not other areas) is a good idea.
