So bullying is allowed over there and you let it carry on with out saying a word.  I'm just highlighting that fact about that grasser and the outcome of the complaint. I said hardly ever in my time on there there has been NO bullying to members and very little abuse only one minor infraction Yes there was and it was pointed out, so the forum bullying rules were changed to 'active members'. |

2. User's web site may not contain content promoting the use of illegal drugs, alcohol, sex, pornography, nudity, or any other form of adult content, profanity, hate, "spam," fraud, racism, mlm, pyramid schemes, or promote any illegal activity.....Part of the success of Delilah's site is that abuse is not allowed at all! Any sign of an insult or name-calling immediately gets questioned by admin, and that is a fair way to go. It makes posters think about what and why they are writing, and to be careful in future conduct. Yes but... to pick up on the second point first, I've said to Rex and will happily say on here, his board is very well modded and the rules have been well set up from the start. But, it's a very different ethos on there and essentially is in the spirit of that one strong personality. Which believes in a firm line being drawn and freedom of speech within those constraints. No arguments with that, it works and (apart from yesterday's spatette) I've always been made welcome there and Rex does me the courtesy of letting me talk about Oatie business there. I just don't think we can work like that I don't think many posters want us to on GDB. Not sure of the average age, but on the whole D's is a slightly older, steadier crowd (in mental age, anyway ;D) As for Proboards' cover-all clause 2, it's true that we AIR most of those subjects but that's not the same thing at all as PROMOTING them. We let people talk about racism for example but if anyone seriously tries promoting it we're down on them like a ton of bricks. Sex gets talked about a great deal in many weird manifestations but we're certainly not a porn site. As for people boasting about their hangovers or Beardy going on about his weed consumption, again nobody's dealing and those are hardly an advert for drink or drugs. There's not even any real profanity, swearing on here is almost all about body parts, we don't denigrate God even if vaginas often come in for a bad time. Like I say, it's simply the slanging matches and occasional outbreaks of bullying that concern me. |

So, just to clarify the official admin position (and by no means being picky), if you deem something as a joke, despite someone being insulted by it, then nothing will be done?  No. She means, for example, if me or Beb complain by PM it'll be an obvious piss-take. Nice try though.  What he said. God, it's like we're all turning into barristers tonight ;D |

You do it very well for me Sal. Although you can be too soft with the cotton wool brigade.... The only thing Fester has got right over there is banning of politics. WE should do it immediately.... it has to have more freedom than that place to do well and it always has and will I take on board your point here, Frasier. Surely the point, though, is that some are getting away with abuse and name calling on The Oatcake simply by dressing it up as humour - and moreover because they keep on doing it all of the time. No-one is stopping people saying what they think, but a line has to be drawn when some decide to call someone a C**T or whatever because they dare to speak against what the have have said. The irony of all ironies, from reading what you have written, is that some of the most polite, well written and articulate posts get placed on the politics threads - and nobody makes anyone join in nor read them - and it is these that you want banned? Not liking a subject means you have the option not to get involved in the debate. Persistently insulting someone for daring to speak on a subject is quite different. Proboard rules are:- Your web site must conform to the following standards to be eligible to utilize this service:
1. User's content must comply in a manner consistent with any and all applicable laws of the State of California and the US Federal Government.
2. User's web site may not contain content promoting the use of illegal drugs, alcohol, sex, pornography, nudity, or any other form of adult content, profanity, hate, "spam," fraud, racism, mlm, pyramid schemes, or promote any illegal activity.
3. User's message board and Web site must be in English. Those rules are pretty much laid in stone. If any poster on here doesn't agree with any decision made re: abuse then they have the option to get the thing pulled and nobody wants that. It's up to everyone to grow up a bit and not have to rely on Sally to tell them when they've been naughty boys - and run the risk of ruining it for everyone. It's up to you, Sal, to moderate as you see fit. My own view is that if you deem it that someone (of any age) could be offended by abusive behaviour, then initially warn them with an infraction and then if they persist escalate it to a ban - end of. If people cannot grow up and have to resort to such behaviour, then they shouldn't be on here. We want people of all ages and creeds to come on here and enjoy the banter about our club, issues surrounding it and also topical issues of the day. Part of the success of Delilah's site is that abuse is not allowed at all! Any sign of an insult or name-calling immediately gets questioned by admin, and that is a fair way to go. It makes posters think about what and why they are writing, and to be careful in future conduct. Politics isn't allowed, and that's fair enough - admin's call and all that. But on here, it's the same people always doing the name-calling! The subject matter tends to largely be irrelevant. If you feel strongly about politics ask Rex if he'll allow it. and Bosted you've come over here just to shit stir and you've done it. ...........Well done. Admin why do you allow it? It was getting more fun on here latey until the living dead turned up. You know why he's doing it. Why don't you get rid of him? and like i said get rid of politics you'll lose all the arguments too isn't that right Rex? |

who gives a shit, i slated posters, ilford, admin, who gives a fuck.Of course i'm not going to say the oatcake is a better place than delilahs on there, It was the last place i could post.But we all know delilahs is basically a website dedicated to trying compete with the oatcake, and it never will. Its shit with no atmosphere, mainly because you and rocket talk like a bunch of boring bumbandits. Theres one thing for sure Delilahs is a better place without you and so was the Oatcake when you left.You really show yourself up you know. All because we respect each other on treat each other with dignity we are bumbandits .So be it then .Ive no problem with that at all |

Like I say, it's simply the slanging matches and occasional outbreaks of bullying that concern me. I agree with most of what you say there, Sal. Although, I would only ask - what is a moderator for if not to uphold rules, regulations and standards of decency on a site? Why is it the same 5 or so people who are always caught name calling, abusing and bullying in the name of humour? And, just to clarify the official admin position, if you deem something as a joke, despite someone being insulted by it, then nothing will be done? ;D Why not officially ban bullying (irrespective of age - victimisation is the same thing, after all) and then you can decide as and when an official complaint is made against someone. If the person is unhappy with the response of admin, then they can always go to Proboards for adjudication. Seems the fairest way. |

I'm deleted refs to Miss Piggy, she's not here to defend herself, neither are other people involved and besides it's old news, move on.
(And if you say I'm not being totally consistent with mentioning that a couple of nights ago you're right. I was wrong then and should have let it lie. But no-one would disagree that it was a bad situation all round)

Isn't she the one that slept with the midget. Why did she change Uni if nothing happened? Isnt that slanderous.? And illegal Yep, and are bordering on defamation as well. It was reported to Admin and Proboards at the time. The behaviour of the 'favoured few' on here went way beyond the realms of piss taking. I'm a big girl, I can handle a bit of piss taking, but when it boils down to being called a slut and a slag and the 'favoured few' changing their sig pictures to an image saying "Die Vampire Die" then it's way beyond piss taking. Sal knew what was going on, and ONE warning for personal abuse was issued. ONE. Craig would be another prime example of someone who really hasn't got the nouse to even realise he is being ridiculed, but still it carried on unchecked. For the most part, the posters on this board are great, good bit of banter and the knowledge of where to draw the line. The 'favoured few' however have dragged what used to be a great place to visit right down the pan and as long as they are here and allowed to carry on posters will start to disappear one by one. |

I'm not going to take sides here but.. Has anyone else noticed how ever since Bosted and Rhodesy have returned and posted, the sheer hate and anger on the GDB has increased to levels beyond anything acceptable? That's me included towards the Daywalker but I'm just wondering if we just ban them for a week and see if the GDB returns to it's usual self It's a strange one I know but I think it's worth a go  |
