Is this having a go at any poster putting a counter argument mods? Any warning?
I think Saynta maybe ok as he didn't actually say he wanted a mod to die.

In yet another attempt to educate ...

This broad statement is not directed at any particular individual.

Anyone offended by it is deeming THEMSELVES to be part of the accused "whingers"

If he had written "Jacks Back - stop being a whinger" - YES that is a breach and a POSSIBLE warning!

But he didn't.

The difference has been defined and explained MANY times before.

If you want it changed - then the end result we would be issuing warnings more often.

We have decided on a tolerance level to REDUCE the number of warnings.

We also have given ourselves 3 levels within assessments after we discuss a REPORT.

(a) ignore it because it is so minor and just dismiss the report

(b) send a PM to the offender rather than issue a formal warning (a PM may have also been sent to the reporting poster to explain our action)

(c) issue a formal warning and post the warning in the offending post (a PM may have also been sent to the reported AND reporting poster to explain our action)

Even if that poster had written "Jacks Back - stop being a whinger" ... and the post was REPORTED for assessment (noting that we can not possibly assess each and every post each day so only assess REPORTED POSTS ) .... the mods would have discussed the breach and decided the best course of action.

Still completely irrelevant. He didnt get banned for lashing out at a fellow poster. Maybe if the incident involved another poster winding him up or being thin skinned or taking things too seriously then pluggs would have a genuine defence of provocation. Problem is that isnt what actually happened here.

Hes not in 'trouble' for lashing out at a provocateur or someone he was sparring with in the heat of battle and the fog of war - that would be excusable - he went off at an independent non-related party (a mod) in private. So the 'provocation' defence - even if sometimes valid - doesnt apply in this set of circumstances .

In any case he can just return as RodKeogh17 or something.

Let's not blow things out of proportion. Its an internet forum.

You don't get a warning for being counter to an argument. The warnings we're for being personal to the poster.
Please don't try and cloud the issue with falsehoods

I can't say who against as then I MAY get a warning ffs but it appears okay to just give out ffs's ffs as long as I don't direct them at anyone in particular.

We have had a false dawn before.
So i won't get too excited yet.
But on face value it looks promising and just might save the site.

I don't understand why this should make any difference to what was reportedly PM'ed to BFUSA.

Regardless, there is no excuse.

P66 would have been fully aware of the impact of such PM's.

He is an adult, he is responsible for his actions.
I would just like to know if was a late night thing or something else.
The first abusive PM was 4.42pm. The 13th and last abusive PM was 4.54pm.

Can you get a warning for having a crack at him now? Technically he isn't a poster anymore.

Is there a policy on this?

That's a lot of pm's in a short space of time.

Not that it really matters but he was at the cricket on Saturday watching Ormond play Werribee at Werribee.

He must have really got into the beers and with the sun out it appears he was really impaired. NO excuse I suppose unless someone there got hold of his phone.

4.42pm was definitely him and the next 12 PMs in 12 minutes before the ban were repeating and slightly expanding his thoughts of me and my family in an abbreviated manner. There are no excuses for the behaviour. As stated, the ban is final and full.

I don't think there's anything to gain from speculation on how or why this happened.

Plugger accepted the ban and he won't be back.

Time to move on I reckon.

Its kind of like the movie The Ring where you pass the curse on or it kills you. We delivered a cryptic video tape to BF titled "RIP Plugger" Right now at BF they are watching it with a mixture of curiosity and perplexity. But look out when that black haired guy starts crawling out of your lap top screen into your head...no matter how much logic and reasoned argument you throw he just keeps coming...You can't stop him!

They get a bit more traffic over there so that will probably suit him better. I think a lot of what he did here was just designed to stir up action. He's not the most patient of fellows.

Why don't you give us the reasons you think it is boasting instead of rolling your eyes.

Would be appreciated
