Just a polite reminder for all forum users.... Please be civil to ALL other users of this forum. Respect that some users will have a different view to your own. Understand that despite all you may believe, you may not always be right. Constructively attack posts not posters. Do not post deliberately insulting or inflammatory remarks towards other users. The Mods are users here too. Just because we don't agree with a post does not mean we are censoring it or trying to stop a debate. We are just fans too. Mods don't always agree with other mods so please dispel the notion we are a closed shop. Feel free to challenge any posts made by us if you don't agree. I know I will. Please do not engage in tit for tat insults and slanging matches. You both end up looking silly. Please help yourselves make this forum a place you enjoy coming to. We have become a busy little community very quickly. I can assure you that every single poster here is valued. The mod team will continue to do all it can to ensure that the above guidelines are adhered to at all times whilst still ensuring a decent level of humour and banter is tolerated. Where necessary posts will be altered or even deleted at the moderating team's discretion. We hope that this is seldom required. We are happy to discuss any such matters in pm as and when they arise. Have fun. Spot on Hugo.

Agreed. I post occasionally but look in at least daily (more atm while on holiday!). I'm sure there are many who do the same and many more who check in but never post at all! Keep up the good work all! What keeps you from posting more? I'm not always checking the forum, I sometimes don't have anything to add to a thread.Why do you think people lurk without posting? My dad sometimes uses the forums to get news that isn't on the website. He uses it to get information rather than opinion as he rarely reads more than the first post of a thread. He's not interested in the views of people he hasn't met.How can we tempt more to chat? I think more regular polls, like the start of the season's Where will Rovers finish might tempt more people to set up accounts. I think some people are put off posting an opinion as they fear they'd be shot down and criticised if they did. A poll gives people a voice, but retains some anonymity.Anyone....? I'm really pleased that this forum has been set up. I feel the moderating is for the most part fair, but always explained. At the end of the day, none of the moderators have an obligation to run this forum and if posters are that unhappy they don't have to be on this forum.

Keep up the good work all! What keeps you from posting more? Why do you think people lurk without posting? How can we tempt more to chat? Anyone....? Good question! I think the reason I don't post more is because my view has often been expressed on a topic and I don't think the same opinion repeated in different words adds a lot to a discussion, it just drags it down. If I've something new to add I often do. I think the forum attracts lurkers as our OS is so poor, this is a better source of news. Also any twitter/"my mate's mate said" type rumours appear here and as much as we know they're mostly bollocks they're a bit of fun! The forum also has a collection of those who claim to be in the know. We'd probably all disagree on how in the know each are, but their "inside stories" liven up following a club like ours!

Blimey Been away 48 hours, what happened to cause this thread? Somebody started a thread, asking where you'd disappeared to? a) Negotiating with GD to buy his shares. b) Appearing in Celebrity Big Brother. c) House sitting in Italy for NH Nobody could agree, and the thread descended into personal insults and threats of violence, so Ras had to delete it.

Despite the Mod team deleting posts, talking to protagonists and postingup rules again I have been left with no choice but to delete a thread.
Hopefully I won't have to delete others.
Thanks to those who reported issues. Any further comments re that thread please pm one of the Mods.
