JL or whoever, in the past it was mentioned on here that we could allow only certain users to access the forum, would it not be worth seriously considering putting this is place, as then the forum will be for only the genuine supporter and we could prehaps stop the bad feelings that we have seen. clearly this will upset some but it seems at the moment more people are getting upset and offended by not having it in place. just an idea.

can we come on your site and 'paste' copies of the league table, as you did last season..?

I see you're busy CANV.

 

Why the EFM? Please explain

[pabird]

No need Canv just let it rest on the floor

 

Come on lads 6 of one half dozen of the other we are ironic piss takers just as you are but most of us are real non-league supporters

[CANV EFM]

if you look carefully Gazza anything remotely 'piss taking' from me will be late at night or late afternoon which means only one thing.. a heavey influx of beer ;-) EFM is due to my honary membership of the ymans premier drinking crew and in honour of their sterling efforts in raisng a shedload of cash for a very ill kid on canvey.. well done on todays point.. turning point?

For a while ago I did put in an extra form of moderation, so that guest are no longer allowed to post, you have to be registered as an user on nonleague.com to post. The next step is to make this a real moderated forum, which means that no post will be published until one of the moderators of this forum has read it and given "the thumbs up". I'm not to eager to moderate our forum in this way yet, because it will give the moderators more work and it will also slow down the use of the forum, it will take longer time to get posts online, depending on when a moderator is logged on, and I don't think we need that.

So what we will do now, is to make Andy and Gazza co-moderators of the forum together with me and jl, and hope that we will be able to moderate it better in the future.

As I have always said, I'm 100% for free speech and I don't want to have a full censorship on this forum. We have to accept all kinds of views about the club, but I do not want these idiot postings which only aim is to stir thing ups and make a mess, not to actually have a serious discussion about the club.

You can of course post negative things and statements about the club, and yes, even the persons involved, but there is a very clear difference between airing critism and ask questions, bad or good, and only being negative for the fun of it (?), calling people names and accuse them for things you can't prove.

Again, as I have said earlier, this is an open forum where we can discuss everything about the club, but everything has to be done in a sivil manner and with ordinary common sense.

It's that simple, really!
