My resignation as moderator
Re: My resignation as moderator
So, AFLcrap1, you don't believe contrition to be a positive trait that should be recognised?
Sterling knew exactly what he was doing. He clearly believes racism to be acceptable. I wouldn't be the slightest bit surprised if he is a paid up member of the Klu Klux Klan. His legal threats I'm sure are based in a claim to freedom of speech, so should he be foolish enough to proceed the American First Amendment will come under some very heavy scrutiny.
McGuire on the other hand was attempting to be clever and made a mess of it. I suspect he already knew he was in trouble hence the quick apology and clarification. That shows a strength of character that Sterling could use about twenty doses of. This is not about defending McGuire's comments. This is about defending the punishment issued, which was correct and appropriate. Sterling's was also.
Answer me this, gentlemen. Would you expect a life sentence for a murderer no matter what the plea and/or level of contrition? If your answer is yes, I shall know for certain that I am dealing with two complete and utter fools.

Re: My resignation as moderator
Thanks for the feedback. This place can be lots of fun if we all don't take things too seriously or personal. I also tend to agree with you last liine (within reason of course).Raiderdave wrote:Beaussie wrote:This is a very sad outcome for TFC. Not even sure how to respond to this news. I for one do however hope that Xman reconsiders his position outlined in this thread. Like him or not, this place has functioned better with him as a mod.
I'd love to be able to say we have more support for you Xman from the RL side of things to balance any perceptions of bias expressed by RL fans. To date however, no one from the RL side has been willing to take up the offer (perhaps Cracker as a fan of both codes could assist? Or Wookie, piesman, pussycat. How would members feel about that?). It would be nice if more people could appreciate just how difficult the TFC mod role is on a site like this where lets be honest, we all love to troll and twist things a little in favour of our beloved footy codes.
Not sure where we go from here. I always thought the demands for proof of claims would be problematic in a place like this where like I said, we all enjoy trolling other footy fans. Should we just drop that requirement and continue the troll fest or leave it as is that opinions are ok, just not statements presented as facts? Members I guess would then be free to ignore threads that are complete BS or respond with their own BS claims. I just don't know and am still very saddened to see the recent developments in here and at a loss to how we respond and keep everyone or at least the majority happy.
This place is fun wouldn't you agree when things don't get too personal and we just focus on trashing each others beloved codes or beliefs. Bear in mind, many other sites don't allow what we have and are attracted to here in the first place. Be nice if we could all keep that in mind and just have fun here wouldn't you agree?
your problem is the calibre of fumbler in here
dumb
uneducated
In the main illiterate
& above all
whining little sooks![]()
they are no match for the NRL fans in here lead by King E .... the balance is way out
we're a cut above
I agree though
this site is unique & this is why I like posting here ... its NRL posters don't take themselves too seriously except maybe where race is concerned & a few other lines that we don't like being crossed
but usually its just a massive tongue in cheek from us & that's why its fun for us
some fumblers in here take it all too personally
this place will be fine
all we need is a mod who is fair to all ....lets give cwacker a run if no one else is willing to put their hand up
Im willing to revert back to the rules re proof
but lets keep the colourful language & abuse alive lads ... it makes the TFC on Talking Footy what it is .. funny & enjoyable
Fingers crossed, I'm hoping our RL friend and mod seanb58 might be keen to help us out here in TFC with Cracker who has already expressed his interest.

Perhaps you should practice what you preach upon that piece of unneccesary abuse.

Spambots awfully quiet since raiderdave posted his happy snap. You think he's just gone all frozen and quiet like...like when a baby or a dog notices its own reflection for the first time??

There is no spambot.
