Really getting fed up... 16:03 - Jan 26 with 8605 views | PhilTWTD | The same people, all long-term posters, poking and winding one another up to get a reaction and leading to abuse reports to me. I've really not got the time to deal with it, so will just ban those who continue to do it. Same goes for accusing people you disagree with of being Norwich fans as well. Just wastes my time. |  | | |  |

What did I miss? Football argument or political? |  |

Somebody started a thread saying, "Where has the Hirst thread gone?" Not sure who but I guess it's football related! |  |

Funnily enough I was watching Men Behaving Badly last night and when they checked into a Brighton hotel, Neil Morrissey's character says to Leslie Ash's character that it would be funny if Sting was still there as a Bellboy. He then asks Leslie Ash if she remembers Quadrophenia? To which she replies "vaguely". Made me chuckle. [Post edited 26 Jan 2024 21:12]

Really getting fed up... on 22:34 - Jan 26 with 1892 views | durhamj | Agreed. I've up until recently been reluctant to post due to the play ground bully antics, really can't be arsed with it. We've all got differing opinions, but come on, everyone play nicely. Nice one admin [Post edited 26 Jan 2024 22:34]

A shame. We were having a decent conversation about the impact George Hirst's absence has had on our form. I came back to the thread later to see if you had replied and it was gone. |  |

I saw your reply to my reply and think we were more or less in agreement at that point to be fair. Hirst is a big miss but not sure irreplaceable is accurate and perhaps others (especially Davis) proved to be bigger misses in our recent games. |  |

Really getting fed up... on 08:44 - Jan 27 with 1539 views | DBaldy | Completely agree. The equivalent site of my favourite NFL team have a "3 strikes and you're out" policy, but when you're out they block every IP address you've used to access the site. I've never understood why certain people who have been banned can just come back on here with a different username, so that would be my suggestion. |  | |  |

I think Phil has been very fair to banned posters and given them a second chance after a decent period away. However, repeat offenders are permanently banned, but they constantly sneak back on using different user names and try to hide their ip address. However, they usually out themselves very quickly and are banned again. What I don’t understand is that if they hate the board, hate most of the people posting on here and hate the way Phil runs the board, why the heck to they keep coming back. I think Phil and Gav have done an incredible job of building this community over the past few decades. |  |

People can't just come back with a different username that easily. Banning IP addresses is too draconian as that would ban other people. |  | |  |

And some people would just use VPNs to sneak in anyway? Also these days people obviously travel around & log in on their phones. |  |

Might be wrong but if these people are returning banned posters, I think Phil would label them as such, or simply just ban them again especially because, as you say, "they usually out themselves very quickly and are banned again." By "long-term posters" I assume he's referring to the people who try to out every new poster as a Norwich fan or welcome them with "Hello blueas." Apart from that, I agree with what you've said here. |  | |  |

“Your feathers are showing” “Budgie in disguise” “You should be pleased with your result today “ Baseless nonsense a number of us get regularly, unfortunately the only way to get it to stop has been to report it, I tried to ignore it early on but it got to the point where I was being jumped on every thread.

You've said that before in response to a previous thread by Phil on the same subject, but as you yourself admitted in your first post on this thread, you literally have no idea of the most horrific stuff perpetrated by some of those people - which often happened very late at night when fewer than 30 people were on site, & which were then deleted within 10 minutes; or were sent via PM (including to Admins). |  |

There is a simple solution to this. Phil should request that all new posters provide a set of fingerprints when submitting their registration. If they have six then they don’t get in. |  |

To be fair, some of your comments are a little left field at best - but I suppose every post I read of yours seems suspicious because you've already been branded. Perhaps attempted outings should be banned, but I guess it's all part of the jocular goings on that happens on any forum. Anyway, my name's blueas, nice to meet you. |  | |  |
