Don’t engage.
There are a whole raft of these unknown characters - Mario, Thor, tuffers - ‘people’ who nobody else actually knows, and who just come on here to stir things up. Now, they could be genuine people, Orient fans are by nature outcasts and a bit odd, but it’s more likely they’re all just aliases out to wum. Best to ignore or even better, ban.
Agreed and I’ve found myself for some unknown reason becoming increasingly bothered by these morons.
Alias’s are nothing new and are part and parcel of this place but they seem to be increasingly humourless.
Try looking closer to home to find a moron.
Power corrupts but you are too pig-headed to know that.
Col Tom was 99 years old when he did his Charity Fundraiser. Hardly seeking to be a celebrity intentionally, the media frenzy through lack of other stories in lockdown elevated him (and his charity amount no doubt) to become the iconic image he became in less than a year. He was a humble OAP with an interesting long life . Simon who I knew just through the Social Club, was equally an interesting OAP. I have alway been brought up to respect my ‘elders’. I am not interested in celebrity . I just feel that the death of anyone should not be subject of ridicule. Always a fragile territory to tread.
Irrelevant that he did not seek fame.
The point is he is someone nobody on here is likely to know, unlike Simon.
Several in here have paid respects to Simon who did not know him. They did not insult him as anyone with tact and decorum would.
Admin said he did not know Simon but paid respects . Admin, did not know 100 year old Col. Tom yet mocked him on a thread initiated to pay tributes.
Why as someone else suggested, respect those who have passed , with due reverence and respect. Any criticism of the deceased or causes campaigned for or jesting should be created on a separate thread?.

Still bitter that you won idiot of the year I see.

FWIW, I don’t think Mario is an alias; just someone who stinks the forum out with their million and one threads looking to make conversation.
As if Mario is a new person that’s just rocked up here 5 minutes ago.

I do love the idea that volunteering to moderate a bunch of eejits on a Leyton Orient message board is “power”
It's how I kick back against my oppressed real life away from this place. Mrs FTC has no idea of the monster she's created.

Are you backwards Mario? Plenty on here point to you having many aliases. Writes in a similar way to you to boot as well.

How many times? Why do you think I'd need an alias to be a willy on here?

You proud of this? Your post Admin, soon after a 100 year old war veteran , Col. Sir Tom Moore died of Covid 19 in the present climate of lockdowns and 100,000 Covid deaths, no football matches, no pubs, no holidays, schools closed, people losing their jobs, HHS hospitals overwhelmed and the Moderator posts this:

‘Doddering round your outsize garden is a piece of piss.
I'd have more respect for him if he'd done a couple of laps around the Broadmead Estate after 8pm. Soon found out how quick he really was’
And there is more , perhaps you can show the readers Admin? Days later you pay tribute to Simon with much reverence, such hypocrisy.
It’s called humour. But you knew that anyway.
Either way, Candler’s right. Engaging with you is just giving you oxygen you don’t deserve.

Yet that “power” has been used twice to change my username without my consent or consultation. Some may see that as an abuse of power. I do.

What is the point of power if you can't abuse it for comic effect now and again.
Personally, I'd like to see Admin a wee bit more capricious and a wee bit less "accountable" around here. I'd give him one free ban per month - no explanation needed, any dissent is classed as gross misconduct punishable by a ban. Admin decides the term of the ban. No arguments.
