Popular Post novacova Posted November 11, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 11, 2023 Having a block feature would certainly reduce conflicts, reduce time spent moderating and reduce the amount of suspensions and banned accounts. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep sure it's not easy, but it can also be they just leave, a warning or a 7 day holiday is enough for them to leave, as a softly softly approach would be better and ramp up as a last resort, but I appreciate it's not easy, just a shame to chase people away. I remember leaving this forum for years after receiving a 7 day warning thing, unwarranted, 555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it this is a feedback topic, but kinda funny seeing some people hell bent on derailing topics, or ignoring forum rules go on about 'law and order'. Your reply confirms a specific part my previous post : "Problem that I have with AN is that public bullying is at a much higher frequency than TV. This bullying includes (and not limited to) : targeting alone or in group of an individual, gaslighting, harassment, name calling, racism, stalking, threatening, framing to get suspended, etc. Just watch the last 10 pages of “Israel is at War” topic to have an impression." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negita43 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 (edited) Isn't the clue in the title? "Pub Forum". When people have had a few beers often they get argumentitive and insulting to each other - so let them get on with it and use the other sub forums for, hopefully, more nuanced discussions. Why not a "Bar Brawl" sub forum just for them? So many men, so many opinions (Blaise Pascal) Edited November 11, 2023 by Negita43 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's your point of view. Obviously, you don't reference the whole topic, which would undermine your 'point'. Spin it whichever way - it's not like you've got much regard for forum rules, moderator warning and so on. Going on about it now is disingenuous, but not surprising. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having lunch with some political ranter must be the boring lunch ever. I was making the point there are posters who have political views, who can also make useful contributions on entirely different topics. In your rush to judgment, you missed that aspect entirely, hence the wicketkeeper comment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a typical example of : 1. devaluating the original message of a poster 2. continuing repeated persecution on divers topics through guilt tripping and stalking 3. impersonating the AN authority by repeating to adhere to the rules, moderator warning, etc...to legalize the future report function and to generate a virtual warning 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
