Abuse 08:28 - May 31 with 36316 views | PhilTWTD | Got up to another raft of abuse reports and PMs waving metaporical red cards at other users this morning. Really does get very tedious and unnecessarily time-consuming. Perhaps those that don't particularly like one another on here could use the ignore function rather then engaging in long rows with one another. Those who continue to stir things up for no other reason than kicks will be banned. | | | | |

Abuse on 08:56 - May 31 with 9617 views | MattinLondon | You know when people are caught speeding they are given the option of going on a self-awareness course - in an ideal world some posters should have to go on an equivalent course before contributing or starting threads on here. | | | |

This is good news Grimmers. I take it that you will be putting one or two posters on ignore. | |

Abuse on 09:04 - May 31 with 9569 views | footers | I'd like to point out that the deleted thread in question had some rather lovely posts about myself which means I'm leaping into Friday with a big ol' grin on my face. In that spirit, I'd like to kick off Compliment Friday. I'll start: GeoffSentence is a guy who always tickles my ribs with his witty (or sometimes not), irreverent posts. Let's keep the good vibes going, guys :) | |

Although I agreed with the post I find it hard that as I no longer down vote for the hell of it that some people downvoted that one word just goes to show we have some fcuking weirdos on here. And yes. | | | |

I'm reluctant to put anyone on ignore - apart from that Indian spammer last w/e. It shuts down debate and everyone's point of view is worth hearing. But if the debate is replaced by abusive language because someones viewpoint has been challenged or even ripped apart then what else is there. Being down-arrowed persistently by a certain user is not a badge of honour - its petty and annoying. | |

My personal div list is reserved for budgies on a wind up. There are some threads for which I use the manual option, that is restraint. However it seems that the manual option isn't available for some people, maybe they have the standard rather than premium product, and for them the ignore option is suitable. | |

Oh, too cynical. It is true that the site has become more advert heavy over the years (and some posters know that I have a particular objection to betting advertising to the extent that I no longer go to games) but it did not start out like that. I think it was cheaper to run the site back in the DIY days before Rivals and then it was more of a 'holding hands and learning as the site developed' in the Rivals era. But the internet has become much more complex than it was then, there are considerations of how the site is hosted by servers, near and remote, security plus the vicarious and almost existential threat of legal action. Not entirely sure that advertising revenue warrants the stress of all that. | |

Mostly he does it for the buzz he gets when OP's like this garner lots of uppies. | | | |

Um, didn't you admit only yesterday that you just downarrow everything Spruce posts... and that downarrows don't matter and we shouldn't worry about them? | |

Yes but In case you can’t read Phil said he didn’t want people downvoting posts for no reason so I have stopped but some individuals just downvoted me because who I am. Oh your one of them how sad. [Post edited 31 May 2019 10:45]

In the spirit of my earlier post, which I'm disappointed to see didn't gain any traction, I'd like to say that I admire your tenacity, grimboy. If only more of our country shared your 'spirit of the Blitz' then maybe we wouldn't be in the mess we currently find ourselves in. Have a great day wherever you are, whatever you're doing :) | |

I didn't downvote you for no reason though. I downvoted the whole idea that as soon as Phil posts about abuse you're the first to agree with him - yet are one of the main perpetrators. It's incredible that you say people are "fcuking weirdoes" for downvoting willy-nilly when you were doing exactly that yesterday. | |

I'm pretty sure he's carrying out research, it's some sort of social experiment. | |
