Long overdue overhaul of Saint's Recruiting Department

Post: # 1711555Post Numpty »

St Kilda must be great again folks! So David Duke (a very great friend of mine) has been appointed by executive order to the St Kilda Football Club to drain the swamp that has for too long, far too long, been our recruiting operations department. David will be making sure that we only let the right people into our great team, believe me! For too long, this has not been the case, but all that will change, and the swamp will be drained! And let me tell you, David's approach will be a simple, a no PC-crap, and a Russian-Mexican hacker-proof approach to assessing and vetting just who is the white fit for our great club, believe me! #makingthewhiterecuitmentchoicesgrateagain

Is this not trolling?


"Is this the right room for an argument?"
"I told you once."
"No, you didn't."
"Yes, I did."
"Listen, an argument isn't just the automatic gainsaying of anything the other person says, it's a series of statements designed to support a particular conclusion."
"No, it isn't."
"Oh, I've had enough of this."
"No you haven't"
"Oh shut up."

I’m always in line for a laugh. But I am not ok with even remotely joking about white power or assholes like David Duke who hate people based on race. The St Kilda Football club would spew reading this post.

We need to have the GF open to all site visitors, not just those who have signed up. If Big Girls' Blouse can do so, why can't we?

Simon? Help please.


It's Dave, man. Will you open up? I got the stuff with me! -------Who?

Yeah, Dave. ---------------------------------------------------------Dave's not here.

Some of those signed up also don't have access to the general forum mate.

The answer is no.

The site was established for Saints fans to discuss Saints issues. The General Forum was only created because non Saints issues were discussed and cluttering the Fan Forum. The General Forum gave a home to such discussion. The same rationale resulted in the Opposition Forum etc.

In the past "poster disputes" from the General Forum (a sub forum) spilt into the Fan Forum (the main forum and core purpose of this community) to ruin threads and the enjoyment and participation of Fan Forum users.

The disputes in the General Forum tend to be more severe and adding non registered users will only encourage non-Saints fans, non-footy fans and general internet trolls to further inflame disputes and this will lead to unsustainable moderation and administration requirements.

Understood Simon. But I'd argue that's exactly why you'd want to let non-registered punters read GF and OP forum postings(?) As is the case on Big Cardigan.

Understood again. That's why I'm requesting the ability for the non-registered forum guests to read said forum, not though, to be able to actually post. For that, they'd still have to sign up.

And if (when) the theatrics heat up, well there remains your pragmatic approach of moving things to the animal house. And whilst I don't have any stats re numbers or percentages, I'd reckon that when it comes to things heating up, the main SS forum would easily hold its own with the GF. :wink:

But isn't that a voluntary thing, c/f universal(?)

And rethunk?

GF opened up for all punters to read? Being like that hasn't caused too many ripples over on Big Camry Drivers' Club. (Though to be fair re that comparison, a few of the mainstays of that place give the impression they'd be the sort, to take Mogadon as a stimulant. :roll: )

So Simon. How's about it? :)
