tulkyuk Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 For the second time this week i have had a pm off Henry D about posting a comment i the sales section - even though they were both to help the guys out and other members. He has warned me i am going to get banned from the site for this - has anybody else been having this **** off him or is it just me he cant seem to get on with ( belive me i aint that botherd by this and dont really care if he bans me - i thinks the man is a friggin idiot with an infiriority complex but thats just me). Comments welcome. If my comments get me banned then so be it - i'll talk to a few of you on other sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comments welcome. A highly respected and helpful PW member* PM'd me: Remember this, Alan, 'the moderators are like Headmasters in charge of a very large Comprehensive School filled with mischievous pupils; they have a hard time keeping order and have to wave the cane sometimes'. I was a naughty pupil! Don't worry, you are a good sort, deep down! I can't divulge his name but I invite him to own up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustyfox Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 I had a pm from a mod for leaving messages on a private sales thread. If you read the topic rules it says that your only allowed to post regarding the item for sale. http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/ind...showtopic=36445 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pin Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 Christ it's always the same. Nobody ever reads the rules, for a long long time you have only been able to post in the for sale section if you are interested in the item or you are connected with the sale in some way. The mods have a impossible job to do. Dammed if you do, dammed if you don't. They don't get paid, they are not connected with the site in any way but are charged with enforcing the rules, which are set by Teal who owns the site, not by the mods. Tally your a good lad, but in this instance you broke the rules, therefore you get a slap on the wrist. I've had my fair share of warnings and at the time I was livid, in the cold light of day I had broken the rules every single time.

Zapp Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 Well said, there! We are all guilty of being naughty at times! Exactly, I have had posts removed before (the last time being when I took offence at something a member posted, and flared up). The post was removed, and by the time it had gone I noticed I had realised I did'nt give a toss after all. Not worth getting worked up over.

If my comments get me banned then so be it - i'll talk to a few of you on other sites Henry also threatened to ban me a few weeks back for a very trivial reason,the thread is still on here somewhere but 3 or 4 of my posts were deleted so it doesnt make much sense,but he basically said talking about pedigree gundogs or not pedigree was not for this site and should be stopped!I asked him if it was that time of the month and he sent a pm asking if i wanted to be banned for a few month!IMO totally over the top to what was a bit of light hearted banter but i think its a case of "I have the power"(said in a he-man echoey styley way)He gets off on it.And saying "he gets off on it"isnt offensive as i have a pm to prove it off another mod.So there you are its not just you and now i will probably get the threatening pm for saying so!

henry d Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 For the second time this week i have had a pm off Henry D about posting a comment i the sales section - even though they were both to help the guys out and other members.It is the second time I have asked you to read the pinned topics as apparently you haven`t and your post was not helpful in the slightest. He has warned me i am going to get banned from the site for this - has anybody else been having this **** off him or is it just me he cant seem to get on with ( belive me i aint that botherd by this and dont really care if he bans me - i thinks the man is a friggin idiot with an infiriority complex but thats just me). Others have had warnings too and just to clear this up I said it was your last warning I never said I was going to ban you, the matter would be discussed by the moderating team and a decision made. Comments welcome. If my comments get me banned then so be it - i'll talk to a few of you on other sites Yes, the other site. I have been informed by several members that you posted there, that you intended to "wind me up" well if that is so then why are you whining here ?? You have obviously got what you wanted.

magman Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 Ok my thoughts , there seems to be a pattern for being a mod on here . You get to be a regular poster on here and liked by most ,then when asked to become a mod you either disapear in the background ,ie Axe ,Stuart p or stand forward and mod the site to the word . Shame but it happens and we lose some good poster,s Don't have a problem with any mod on here as there doing a job i wouldn't do for all the tea in china .

Tony Hey big Tony, dont drag me into it I posted a thread yesterday, and had two Mods reply saying I should not blame the Ministry of Defence for what happened? ?AS I HAD NOT MENTIONED THE MOD I concluded they are just getting on my case to make me kick off again so they can get their revenge and ban me again.Aah, I forgot ",Power rules ,absolute power rules absolutely" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reality is that to a man the people who have left or been banned from this site would rather that it wasn't that way. Henry's a nice fella - if you meet him, which you will if you go to Bisley, you will see this. It's all too easy to bash heads with people you have never met. Hell, I am now even making an effort to be less critical of Dustyfox. If I can make that level of sacrifice then I would ask that you suck it up and wind it in. P.S. Magman, very interesting observation - I think you are right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
