It is to my knowledge that alien2003 has apologized and can't we just let it die? Don't see a point in headhunting him unless you have a better candidate as a moderator? I personally would like verx (someone who's BPL neutral) to take up a post and seeing by the way he posts, I am sure we'd get more leeway with the use of profanities. But that is not by any means saying that alien is not doing a good job.

QUOTE(prelude23 @ Mar 25 2008, 09:35 PM) Well, eventhough he did not do the bannings but it was a mistake to ban Jonno. He played a part there and he should come out to apologize as well. Come on, even TheWhacker apologized. I'm not headhunting alien but I just hope he could serve well and bring back the Liverpool community. He didn't drive them out. If anything, it's the R and R that are getting on our nerves and not the implementation of the rules. That one case was just the final straw in many people's cases. Duke Red and the others have been feeling this way over a long period of time and it wasn't just Jonno's ban that started it. Personally, I am looking for registration at RedCafe as well.

QUOTE(Belphegor @ Mar 25 2008, 09:48 PM) I'm not really want to get into fight but man, you still owe Liverpool fans an apology. If you did it via personal message, then my bad. I'm a Chelsea fan. He take action against Liverpool fan. Why would I want to risk getting warning? I'm speaking nothing but truth. Trouble is, according to goldfries, you don't know the whole truth. alien has already apologized and he doesn't need to clear the air with you, it's not your battle.

QUOTE(Belphegor @ Mar 25 2008, 09:58 PM) Problem is neither you would know the whole truth. And I'm actually seeking the whole truth. What whole truth do you want? You were already crucifying alien from the get go with your sarcasm. And as I have mentioned, goldfries has already stated that alien has apologized and even Duke Red and Jonno have heard about it and accepted the apology (if I am not mistaken) so what more would you want? Enough with the headhunting. And as I have said, the members who left LYN didn't leave over that isolated incident. It was a number of issues all adding up and if there's anyone to blame, it's the R & R.

QUOTE(prelude23 @ Mar 25 2008, 10:12 PM) Not only you. I dont remember seeing his apology either. @kobe If members of Liverpool left this forum due to the incident added up, how come I've never heard about ManUtd members leaving this forum? Now we're not talking about one Pool fans but a number of them. As far as I know, Duke Red, Jonno and co. had always been posting quality post here without trolling and bait flame in other threads. If according to you its the R&R that has been factor, why I dont see other member migrating away because of this? There must be something which deeply upsets them which trigger their decisions to move away from here. The reason why they are leaving now is because they have an alternative with the RAWK forums. Registering at the RedCafe isn't as easy. I myself have had difficulties registering there until now. Just because you don't know that there are United fans leaving, doesn't mean they aren't. refnulf who happens to be one of the senior members have defected to another forum for a long time and other members have had accounts at the cafe and have started to defected.

Unfortunately for us, LYN is similar to that. We have petty away fans running to the Internet police when someone calls our favorite players names. I have nothing with Ronaldo being called a nut and I sure as heck don't expect to get a warning for calling Gerrard a lifeless piece of sheet of paper.

QUOTE(prelude23 @ Mar 25 2008, 10:37 PM) We're holding them back because we want this place to be a better one. Like bwan said, whats the point everyone migrating to other forums and have the place all by themselves? The nice thing about here is that we go almost all the major club fans gathering here and socialize among each other. If all of the sudden there's no Pool fans, wont it be weird? You see mate, I'm with Gunners and Bwan is with Blues. Don't you feel the thing here? There is very little interaction among opposing fans anyway. When I say something you don't like? What do you do? You report me. No point having opposing fans kow tow to you just because you are a rival in LYN. You have something to say, say it out loud and proud. It sickens me whenever I see posts like "Good luck on today's game" or "Haha, hope you win."

QUOTE(prelude23 @ Mar 25 2008, 10:45 PM) Well, sometimes its nice to see those little greetings from your rival you know? And if the forum is make up by one sided fans, we will not be able to see 'Vidic vs Agger Who's better' kinda thread. What the fun in it? But look at the kind of replies in such threads. Would you prefer someone like Jonno or Duke who utters the occasional Fs (Jonno utters it a lot) or a young ah beng who does nothing but post one liners and report comments that aren't of his belief. The fact that Jonno was going to get a warning says it all as well. The rules and regulations are flawed. It's very Malaysian-like for a Malaysian audience.

QUOTE(prelude23 @ Mar 25 2008, 11:07 PM) No offence mate, this reporting issue had only been an issue after Jonno was reported. Before that there was nth serious. And I like LYN football lounge. Thats why I've been saying I want those real fans to reconsider turning their back against LYN. Define serious? The only reason why the Jonno case was serious was because there was a cock up but the sad case still remains that sour grapes report posts they can't reply/tolerate.

QUOTE(prelude23 @ Mar 26 2008, 12:13 AM) I dont think you get my point. Like I've said, he do not have any intention to annoy the ManU fans and he did it in a well mannered. Its not like everything has to go by the books. It's not about intention. It's the fact that the word shouldn't be used! That's the point alien's trying to make.

QUOTE(prelude23 @ Mar 26 2008, 12:19 AM) I've been using the words for my last 2 post. Why din you guys say anything bout me? Its the intention that counts dude. Its already been a custom of name calling in football. I didn't do anything because I don't care if you do. And in LYN, it is not about the intention, it's black and white. Try arguing and if you win, I'll give you free Internets.

QUOTE(J-Piggy @ Mar 26 2008, 12:34 AM) Even though it is LYN forum , the thread itself belongs to the clubs.As for those kiddo who posted "glory glory Man Utd" at least should get punishment, right?Deleting posts is not going to help much...The warning which disable the posting option should be given.  It's the other way round. Even if it's a United thread, it's under LYN. Want free flowing four letter words? Head over to United Rant or the RedCafe. I must admit Cafe is of a higher class than some of the other forums I do visit (not taking a swipe at LYN).

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.

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