I’ve said it before, he’s a tough read, but there’s always that uncomfortable bit in what he says that has a ring of truth.

Haven’t seen his latest offering but I really don’t understand why people are going out of their way to get so worked up when there’s an ignore function readily available.

It’s not like he’s posting racist, bigoted pro-Farage rage bait, or the sneeringly sexist stuff a few of the pearl clutchers have been guilty of in the not-too-distant past….

He only really posts once per thread so the old excuse that ignore makes the forum unusable doesn’t really apply in this instance.


You make a valid point..
But he's an obvious troll.

It's mainly just a pathological dislike of Mark Ashton because he used the word "elite".

Edit: I'm not in favour of expulsion. Don't think they have broken any of the board rules. The views are probably sincere (i.e. not trolling, the tone is one of lambasting others for not holding a point of view, rather than simple goading). Misguided and, perhaps, a candidate for ignore (I only do that extremely rarely), but not really deserving of being thrust into the howling void.

It’s a strange word to be triggered by isn’t it?

Also, in footballing terms, a very tricky one to definitively define.

At least he had a sense of humour and more or less admitted he was sometimes on a wind-up though.

The key factors with humpty dumpty are that he frequently rubbishes/misrepresents/defames (take your pick) club officials, and has probably previously been banned for posting similar trash.

The elephant in the room is an idle comment from someone (which was never refuted) that far from being ME, this poster is a disgruntled former syndicate organiser whose bid to take over ITFC was rejected by ME, and who’s been frustration/revenge posting ever since.

@Gav

How hard would it be to store ignored users in local storage? That way, even if people aren't logged in then the users would still be ignored. Could just update the list on change & login.

What exactly does Darkhorse do wrong? Ok, he’s negative and is a tedious bore but so what.

He is the next stage in evolution from ElephantInTheRoom - a tad less overly grumpy pathetic old man and slightly more relevant to modern football. But still retaining his core one dimensional dull essence.

Its the same (very) lengthy drivel recycled every single time.

If there was the occasional different take, or even slightly less negative most people could probably put up with it - but it isn't.

I find it bizarre how people are defending him/her to be honest. But then, this is TWTD so not sure why I'm surprised.

I’m amazed you are so bothered by him/her tbh.

Just put on ignore or flick past what they post.

Can't say I see anyone defending grimdobbin, just saying that in the interests of board democracy they should either be put on ignore or left mainly unread. Your point about the length and one dimensional nature of the posts is valid though, and I would add that dourneddy also never responds to the posts that are made in response to their posts. If they really had a strong point to make then they would defend it.

Each to their own , we’re all allowed an opinion and if we don’t like it I suppose just ignore it

Not sure what waveney said as ive put them on ignore. But i'd imagine they are bemoaning someones posts.

If you look at their posting, they rarely actually contribute anything other than to literally pick at someone elses posts. Get personal and move onto the next one.

Darkhorse, I get why his posts would annoy people, but he may genuinly have those thoughts that he shares.

I pity dobbin if the posts reflect his/her genuine thoughts. That amount of anger over a prolonged period of time is unhealthy for anyone.

I really have fallen into the depth's of hell.
