Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
The fact Travis needed to word it like that when sending out an OFFicial warning is telling though. Why say that unless there was evidence of abuse from someone, irrespective of who they are, with special club privileges?LittleMate wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 8:15 amNothing to be intrigued about. He's just making its clear to absolutely everyone about the club's position. Sometimes some people are inclined to read something and think that somehow it does not apply to them. This disabuses them of that.HARVEY T DENTON wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 7:28 am "Please take this as a strong warning.

I'm OFFicially intrigued. Great statement mind.

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
Yes, that's already been raised in another thread. The message from Travis mentions future action to be taken for future abuse though and he's clearly warning certain people, not just OFF, that they might want to think twice if they fancied gobbing off with racial abuse in future.

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
Nigel has not mentioned anything about 'gobbing off'. It's clearly to do with racialist comments.Smendrick Feaselberg wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 9:30 amYes, that's already been raised in this thread.

Why if OFFs name even being dragged into this?

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
I should have clarified that when I said gobbing off I meant gobbing off with racial abuse. I'll edit my post to make that clear. But I've clearly said it's a warning to all people irrespective of their history and standing within the club, not just OFF.RedO wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 9:37 amNigel has not mentioned anything about 'gobbing off'.

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
I think you'll find it was the below post where it was brought up.
And then he was referred to again in the below before I commented to support that.HARVEY T DENTON wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 7:28 am "Please take this as a strong warning. There will be no exceptions, regardless of the individual’s position or history with the Club."

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
Think it’s a bit harsh to bring him into it. He might not be everyone’s cup of tea but for all his berating of the opposition, it’s never racist.

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
At last, some sense has been restored. The message from Nigel on racism has nothing to do with OFF. Can we now please drop his name from the subject?

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
After your first two attempts to get a reaction on this thread failed miserably this is what you’re reduced to?
Absolutely staggering that not only did you manage to weasel out of a perma ban but escaped re-banning after being caught out breaking the rules again with multiple accounts.
I’m sure that your grovelling promise to the mods to behave after you avoided a repeat ban didn’t include sticking up for nonces and wumming on a thread about racism.
Have no idea what the mods are thinking letting you continuously break the rules without punishment.

Saying censorship is hardly Wumming.
It's a perfect description of what I was commenting on?
BTW before you threw you toys out of the pram with your rant, do you even know what I was referring to by the word "censorship"?
No, thought not
Censorship by moderators would prevent people accusing OFF of something he is not here to defend himself from.
Or do you just prefer to mindlessly abuse people?
It's ironic you get so worked up about me suggesting censorship may be a way to solve a problem raised by others and then you demand censorship of me (by banning me posting) for suggesting censorship
How hypocritical?

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
Asking for the mods to reinstate the ban you received for breaking the board rules (and then continuing to break rules after your ban was lifted) is not “censorship”.spen666 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 3:34 pmSnowflake alertP&O wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 2:10 pmAfter your first two attempts to get a reaction on this thread failed miserably this is what you’re reduced to?

I suppose you think it was “censorship” when all the fake accounts you were using were shut down as well?
Why the mods decided to make you untouchable really is beyond me. It appears that no matter what rule you break you are able to get away with it.
Baffling.
