What is the point of having a "General Banter" section but making it quite clear banter is not allowed?

Since sluffy went into rehab the moderating on this site has become ridiculous. It's great the racism has been kicked out, but everything else should be left as it is. If people want to contribute to a tongue in cheek death threat thread then let them. If they want to abuse Amos or Dave or me then let them.

Let the public decide what is funny, not DannyW who has contributed bugger all to this site since I joined. He claims it's boring, but it's not upto him. Especially as he doesn't post anything that couldn't be found on the official BWFC site.

Danny out. Manny out. Humour in.

If we 'let the public decide' i assure you the result would be the same. Unless of course you think the majority of people do want every thread of this forum turned into an Amos bashing thread which is definatly not the impression i get.

If it's kept to General Banter I don't see your problem. This is a forum, there should be banter and, dare I say it, arguments.

Those Amos threads are very funny and I'm not the only one who thinks that way. As far as I can tell there's only ever Le God moaning about them.

No, you're right, there's about 3 of you. Unfortunately we aren't here to just to cater for the whims of three or four posters just cause they post alot, we're trying to make it so everyone will find it interesting.

You make it sound like we're dishing out warnings and locking threads left, right and centre when the fact is we've locked one thread, and even that's only cause it's something that's been done about 100 times now.

I think they are forgetting this is my forum, I can't be arsed with abusing Amos though, he is a retard who should be ignored.  I actually pm'd him on the return from his latest ban in the hope he would stop being a retard but other than him thankfully cutting out making stupid unrelated comments to whoever he has an issue with.

He is still a tool.

Get real Sharps, he's the most entertaining thing on here. It's just comedy, I can't believe people take it seriously.

He is not funny though, he is a retard.  You may find it funny laughing at him but it is not an act, he is indeed that sad.

He is funny, and while everything he posts might be true....it might also be a pack of lies. Either way it doesn't matter, he amuses me and others. If it's confined to General Banter I don't see the problem.

The funniest thing he has ever typed was playing a 3 5 2 against QPR.

I don't find it funny at all.

Only you sharps and dave are interested in abusing AMOS and mentioning him in every thread.

And sometimes Batman surprise surprise.

There is just no pleasing some people and Natasha, you are one of the main people who fall into that category.

When myself, Sluffy and Danny let things lie, we get complaints about being too lenient, but when we try to nip something in the bud we get criticised for being too tough.

Banter is banter but if we start allowing threads about death threats to remain open then we are doing something wrong.

People whinge and moan when this place is quiet but when it is only busy because a couple of people can't stop arguing, it doesn't appeal to anybody reading the site. If people stay on the right side of the line then there are no problems.

If I could have anybody removed from here it would be you, you are so wet it is beyond belief and I do not bother with Amos because it is boring so stop talking out of your arse.

Its very boring and predictable.

I came over with a lot of other people when White Love finished on Traf's recommendation.

I dont think any of the others are still here.

When WW's went down there was a thread on how wank this place was, Sluffy tried defending it but couldnt really.

I think it has potential though so I'll hang around till the coup.

Not often anyone can use the words White Love and a lot of people in the same sentence.

Barry's words pretty much sum things up. This place isn't the free for all that some think it is.

Barry getting Mrs Sharps to sign up didn't cause any trouble though.

My view fwiw is that Manny has a point that plenty threads do go on a bit but I disagree with his support for Barry who seems to have caused plenty trouble himself.

Most of that WW lot are so far up each other they were never likely to stay once their own place was back up running.

They all meet up and have sex with each other every Thurday evening, ITK fact.  They tell their partners it is "5 a side night".
