It solely depends on how severe your offends are.If teruk then of course more than 3 days la..

There's nothing wrong with someone posting that in another thread other than United thread. In a matured action, either one reports that particular post with the reason "childish statement" or just shrug it off and ignore. I chose the latter. But what i see most of the time is ppl getting into arguments with those ppl fully aware of their purposes on taunting rival clubs.

Agree..Let's make football lounge a better place...

Yes, as I was explaining to sasuke914 that it was meant to be a warning like explained by whaker and alien. However, there's mixed up and staffs awarded a suspension of posting instead.

Personally, I din see anything wrong if someone happen to be doing the former action.
For example:

Miss A and Miss B are rivals. Miss A step over Miss B's lawn and insult how terrible Miss B's lawn are..how disrespectful those comments are...

Hence it is understandable how ppl gets into arguments instead of ignore them.

Anyway, off to sleep.
Keep up constructive criticism instead of sole banter. i.e. heed aboogee's advise.

Cheers and good night!

What I'm saying is it all depends on how one looks at it. Personally if no one bothers him, he's as good as jerking himself with either his right or left or even both hand. i.e. amusing himself or shall I say bore himself to death.

Yup, I take this stand too. being the TS in the Chels thread, I've come across non-Chels fans posting nonsense in the thread too. and we ignore/report them. the result is they left, cos their flame-bait was to no avail.

Don't get me wrong, I welcome friendly banter and Matter-Of-Fact discussions, not POV ones. and name-calling is SO IMMATURE, so I'd ignore that too.

Remember reading someone here posted about educating the noobs, which I think goes a long way to enhancing this forum too. IMO, weeding out these bad influences will also help make this forum a more educated and intelligent one.

Seriously, do we even have a moderator here?
And if we have, what is he doing around because all i can see is flame war all around and own thread member also cant control?
So, do we really have a moderator here?

The admins/staffs are not around 24/7, let alone the mods. Do you have anything against the mods? If you do, bring your complaint to the admins, not by keep repeating mentioning non-stop in every thread.

You keep saying no action on this user or that user. What proof do you have in hand that NO ACTION being taken? You can access their warning log? Or do you need the admins/staffs/mods to inform you everything they do?

If you are against me then deal with me via PM. Do not involve other mods in here.

dream if u tak puas ... post in the feedback helpdesk and complain on alien2003 .... we all know u not happy with him ... deal with it like a man ... dun hide behind cryptic words or whatever ... just deal with him via PM or the feedback desk ...

well, you can't never satisfy everyone, can you? it's easy.

1) ignore the troll
2) don't take the flamebait
3) report button if you wish to
4) stop b****ing about trolls. that's all to it.

We received 2 posts of stating that we're doing an OK job for this forum. We're not sure if everyone here feels the same but to those to posted those 2 replies, we thank you for it. We hardly get such posts to begin with.

Some requested 4 mods from the top four clubs in EPL to moderate this forum and that's a good idea coming from all of you. TheRipper and myself actually wanted that implementation of 4 top EPL club mods but at that time, the football forum's traffic wasn't that heavy as member base wasn't that high and LYN was still at its young age.

Now its a different story. Traffic is getting very heavy in the football forum, previously this forum was very active during after office hours ... which is at night time. Now from morning, afternoon, evening, night time and wee hours in the morning members from all sorts of life and profession are either posting a reply or opening a new thread and this can be a form of news, post/pre-match taughts, player/team analysis, a flame bait, trolling, spamming and etc. Due to that, we will miss some posts while we're going through the forum's threads, that's why you hardly see me post but i'll come into any thread to inject/join discussions that are on going.

On the moderator part:

We have spotted a few candidates that we hope they would help us moderate this forum together and also promoting a few members to Elite status. Even if we already thier name in the list, you all are still welcome to suggest a member (or yourself) to take the moderator post (of course don't PM us "me want be mod" kinda messages.). Reason being, we want to see if the name we choose are concurrent with the name we recieved from everyone else.

If there's any suggestions or comments that you don't want to post here, my inbox is always open for your PMs. For those who PMed me before, you know i'll reply to your PMs, sooner or later.

Just my 2 cents.

As for Chelsea, I think aw13 will be the right person. If he become a mod, someone else from Chelsea should be TS. A mod as a TS for his own club should be avoided. But, if possible, give the TS, a mod's power (to delete or edit or warning) in his own club's thread. Just a suggestion....

top 4 clubs mod ... dun make sense ... its not fair to the other club like serie a and la liga...

Its actually quite hard in terms of the forum's structural groupings on members, to allow a TS with moderator's features and yet remain a normal member in the forum. A non IT example would be like, a police cop with guns, handcuffs, radio and etc but without his ID and police badge.

As it is, there's a member grouping of Moderators and any members of the forum who are added to this member grouping would have moderator features turned on as long as this member remain in the moderator member grouping.

Actually, just curious though, why can't a TS of a particular club be a mod ?


P/s To those who don't know what's TS mean ... its stands for Thread Starter.

I have nothing with a TS being a moderator but you'd have to check as some of the TS's aren't as active as others. There are some TS who don't update thread titles enough or post enough, yet alone moderate.

Secondly, I don't think it's unfair simply because Serie A and La Liga threads don't gather as much volume as BPL threads.

i think a moderator needs to be active .. it dun really matter if the mod happen to be a TS ...

It just to eliminate any doubt of "conflict of interest". I know that the particular mod like Alien2003 is a TS. It makes some (not all) other rival's club think that he get some benefit from it. Besides, no harm to let other club's member to be a TS as in case of MUFC, as they have many capable TS.

As for the active forumer to become a mod, I have to agree with this. That's why, admin should ask him first if he's ready for the job.

It is possible to ask alien2003 to moderate Sports Lounge and still become TS for Manchester United Street Talks Just an opinion though.
