This board.....

I happily use the ignore list for people that don't add any value or are just out to antagonise. I dont have loads on it, only about 5 I think atm.

I've got 4 on ignore. 2 of them the same person. Makes the board far more enjoyable and usable.

Shocked at some of the elder statesmen above having a go at each other mind.
 
There will always be people with differing political opinions and differing opinions about other members of our society. We also live in dynamic world where these opinions are changing. Add to that we all can't know everything and get even close. If I see something that significantly stretches the truth (in my opinion) I will comment in an objective manner with evidence. People posting with differing opinion and information I am OK with as long as they don't get personal and aggressive against others.

We are all boro fans, that should be the thing that gels the board and posters. Unfortunately it’s very political too and some posters take that very personally. I would never block anyone due to political interest put some do. Could miss a great post about boro, history, players, music anything really. I’ve been insulted, called out in threads amongst others. You had a poster stating if you weren’t from a left siding position you should shut up and be quiet due to the fanzine being born through the thatcher years. It is 2020 not 1985. Whilst there is so much political bashing on here I can’t see a harmonious board. I’ve had rob stating he thinks I’m a political campaigner which is ridiculous, there in lies the problem too

You seem to be repeatedly misrepresenting my position Cooper. It's not that the fanzine was born in the 80s or even under Thatcher. It's the fact that it's a fanzine. Part of an anti-establishment movement sparked in large part by the Tory demonizing of football fans. It's not relevant how long ago it was, it's an ethos, a culture and I'd like to think it keeps to those standards. I'm sure you'll seize on a small part of the argument rather than addressing my point as that's what you tend to do. But as someone who claims to have been so staunchly a labour supporter that you voted for Brexit just to try to get rid of Cameron I'd like to think that you'd have an understanding of what it's all about.
 
Borolad in respect to your above post

The report function is helpful and the admin tools are much better here. We can make it pretty difficult ... not impossible ... for disruptive posters to get on. We can also make them and their crap disappear pretty easily too. We will also warn/give temporary bans to posters who get too heated ... our options are more nuanced.

- I am obviously one of the ones you are making it more difficult for, going on six weeks now, I don’t believe I have done anything wrong, I have asked why on numerous occasions but have not received an answer. Would be nice to have it explained to me either on here or via email, an happy to leave the board of that is what is required but am just a bit confused with the silence. If you can let me know either way and I will be on my way or not depending on the outcome :)
 
FC is your issue still regarding slowing down of your posts, forum not working when logged in etc still?
 
I remember you posting it on the old forum. The strange phenomenon also affects my account. Had no explanation.

So I’ve had 2 accounts both affected by this. Tried on different computers, phones, WiFi and 4G so has to be the account not the device.

I have to delete my browsing history after each time I post (after multiple attempts to post or log in) in order to log me back out as if you don’t and remain logged in you literally can’t re load the board.

I did ask at the time and Rob just said “don’t know” I raised it in general sticky thread at the top about feedback but got nothing and I did on your thread on the old forum. It certainly is the account not the device. It’s like your account has been slowed down for some reason 🤔. Sometimes it will tell me I can’t post again for a certain amount of time too
 
What a lovely thread.🤔
Haven't we all been part of a similar group, you know, where a smallish group takes the lead? Maybe some will conclude that the offerings of others are unwelcome, whilst the few continue to ride the coattails of others.
Don't take things so seriously, get out and about, free yourselves.👍

All comments from Tories are pre-monitored before posting to allow the lefty clique bat signal to be transmitted.

.....was a breath of fresh air after the demise of the last one......but the slide is starting to creep in; trolls appearing, petty bickering and squabbling, schoolboy name calling and so on creeping in. Maybe lockdown is having an effect I dunno, but ffs grow up and let’s not have this place descend into the mess the last board was.

Sorry mate, I hadn't seen this post and have just started another thread stating the same.

Hope that's tongue in cheek because if it isn't it's not helpful in the slightest.

It’s not that far from the truth though, there is a degree of censorship going on here that’s not stated in the board rules.

You're being over-dramatic FatCat.

As far as I'm aware there are only two moderators of this site. Rob (the owner) and BoroLad259.

1) You're accusing one or both of promoting a 'lefty clique'
2) You're accusing one or both of knowingly making it difficult for you to post because they either don't like you or don't like your political views (or both I suppose)

You have no evidence to support either claim.

Rather than you and your mates bleating both on here and also the other board why don't you address the matter with the moderators directly instead of making unfounded accusations?
 
As stated in my post I have asked on more than one occasion and so has FC and it’s never been answered. Why is my account restricted the way it is? As I have stated I’ve tried on various computers and internet networks. It’s works fine logged out.

Im not suggesting it’s deliberate but some feedback as to what the problem might be would be appreciated
 
I think it's an excellent board, we can ignore who we please, same as the previous board really but, now with the option of the ignore button
As long as people aernt constantly rude to one, or more particular posters, then I don't have an issue, we won't all agree but you wouldn't all agree if meeting with mates in a pub for a football chat
I do agree though, the atmosphere on here just after lockdown was tremendous, especially the quizzes
