All the Wine Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Moderators need to get a grip. Thats was pathetic yesterday. It's getting to the stage where you can't poke a bit of fun at one another. I know it's mostly schoolteachers that are mods but they need to take a day off from it sometimes. Moderators Christmas night oot must be a great laugh -2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbs Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 What did I miss that caused the forums to shut? Drew disagree with King Kenny becoming Sir King Kenny because Phil Jones missed out? Brainstorm forgetting to stop drinking again .. and being more Brian than usual? Zorro going overboard trying to convince everyone he knows more about tennis and goalkeeping than anyone else?

WIGHT and BLUE Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Absolutely NOWT to do with me. I suspect some of our 24/7 Nazis were sticking their jackboots into some poor sod who didn't agree with their mass-debate?

Bonbon19 Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 It’s actions like deleting posts and suspending the site with no obvious explanations that will irk some posters , I understand the rules and regs re FOI data protection etc has to apply but clarity is what’s needed not secrecy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skygod Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 I suspect someone from the club had a word about the "La Manga" thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C4mmy31 Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 I'd agree.... Why should the fans with no input to the "La Manga" thread, be locked out of Kickback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killie billies pal Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 I'd agree.... Why should the fans with no input to the "La Manga" thread, be locked out of Kickback? There were several decent posts on the La Manga thread, better to deal with specific ones, if at all tbh, like every other way of life these days it only takes one to be offended and it’s game over.

I followed it till around page 3, you could see it starting to go pear shaped. Surely if I could see it, a mod could and closed the thread.

Ben Reilly Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Some fans think their anonymity gives them the right to say whatever they want about whomever they want. The best idea for the forum would be to ditch pseudonyms and use our real names. The keyboard warriors would pipe down quite quickly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Reilly Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 The real issue is that we're all going cold turkey. I can't wait for the football season to start again so we can start talking about the juggernaut again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All the Wine Posted June 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 It was patronising bollox, 'away out and enjoy the sunshine and calm down'. Give some folk a bit of power..... -6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killiehippo Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 I have nothing to do with running the website but know the guys that do. You have no idea the grief they have had over the years about some of the absolute pish that is posted here. I do like the suggestion that every poster should have to show their identity as it's far too easy otherwise for the keyboard warriors. The guys who run this site have done untold work to promote Killie over the years but it is rarely recognised.....a minority just like picking up on every little negative, whether it is justified criticism or not. All I would say is please appreciate the numerous hours spent by Baz etc to run this site for absolutely no personal gain.......if It was me I would have walked away years ago.

All the Wine Posted June 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 I think everyone appreciates what goes in to running the site hippo, but it's so quick to shut stuff down and delete threads because of some petty arguments. I thought yesterday was pretty poor and like I said a bit patronising. By all accounts ban the folk for 24 hours if it's THAT bad but shutting the whole thing down is a bit ott.

Scooby_Doo Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 The old site when Scooby Doo was a moderator was miles better Very kind of you to say so, not least because deleting your posts used to be one of my favourite sports! I have some sympathy with the mods - you used to be able to quickly 'prune' threads, and just delete the troublesome comments and let threads continue. However, when you've taken that sensible approach with fifteen threads that day and you realising that the same people time and again aren't willing to be as sensible, the big delete button comes out. Ultimately, because it takes up less of the free time you've given. It's worth remembering that the site owners are liable as publishers for the content, not the author. So they take the risk for what you post. That fact determines the level of 'free speech'. My advice would be that if you're about to hit the button to post, ask yourself if you'd happily have it printed in the Standard with your full name, address and phone number under it. If not, then don't bother. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
