Title: Expect to see more moderation
Post by: Forum Admin on August 01, 2019, 12:14:51 pm: All,

As above. We will be moderating this forum a little tighter than we have done previously. Posts that are clearly antagonistic or abusing of individuals will be removed. If you wish to ask questions then do so, but bear-baiting will be dealt with.

Will this target those who have a certain opinion?
Opinions are just that , it’s NOT denial of the holocaust but football . It’s the reaction to views followed by insults that is the problem .

Good news.
That should drastically thin out the posts on here lately!

Post by: rtid88 on August 01, 2019, 12:56:11 pm: It's the constant unneeded negativity and totally unfounded conspiracy theories that I am sick of from the same members over and over... The abuse is obviously not right and clearly people are allowed their own opinion and don't get me wrong I obviously have negative posts at times but the same members are for ever spouting their negativity which just makes this board totally irrelevant....

We don't need your negative comments.

Post by: Avsuptem on August 01, 2019, 03:07:07 pm: We are all DRFC supporters and effectively the same tribe and yet some argue like cat and dog. I for one am turned off this forum by the frequent puerile insults and personal attacks that frequently prevail. Every one is entitled to their opinion and to have their say. They should be allowed to do so peacefully. Increased moderation is welcome.

Post by: DRNaith on August 01, 2019, 03:19:22 pm: It will be good to have an increase in moderation.

I was a moderator on this site for quite some years and it is a thankless task from all directions.
