Having met Zapers in real life when I was in Thailand, he is a very nice chap. Not wishing to get political but i think political discussion on this forum is what leads to people getting banned.
Must have been a nightmare for you having a chat with him. I;'m amazed that a banter lord like you managed to successfully negotatiate a chat with someone as vehemently anti-bullying as them.
I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.
What makes you think they'll be cheerful revelations? I imagine it'll be tales of weirdos trying to hack the site and sending Phil abusive messages. I have a few tales to tell myself of oddballs I've encountered on here over the years.
There is one particular poster who keeps cumin back but isn't here long due to their abusiveness. Another evergreen was on here over the weekend but has departed. And if Phil was to bring in a registration fee there is one particular poster who has sneaked back on here so many times with new usernames that he wouldn't be able to footer the bill.
Well he was never abusive to anyone that I saw. His major crime seems to have been having negative opinions. I guess that's now frowned upon too. We want positive outlooks only. Noted!
I still think we can win the league you know.

Negative opinions and a massive f’king wind up when emotions were high haha.
No need to be banned for it though mind you, just needed a few days off, he’s usually alright when he comes back, just needs a yearly break.

Far too subtle, Glassers. No way anyone will have any idea who you're referring to.

Aww, one day you might make some friends. Don't worry.

it's a tough puzzle for a monday afternoon, but i think i've cracked it:-
cumin is a herb, so that one's easy i'm afraid evergreen is clearly a reference to the darts venue frimley green footer sounds like fooker, so must be blueasfook

Gone right over my head.
On a separate note, it would be great to have footers and sprucey back though.
Always got on really well with them, but then I suppose they were very left leaning, anti-racism types who didn’t have much time for Covid deniers, Trump, Farage, public stonings, shooting immigrants in boats, moaning about players taking the knee or that Yaxley Lemon chap.
Wasn’t ever gonna butt heads with them on those issues.
Ah well, can’t curate your perfect forum as that might get a bit boring after a bit.

I'm a left leaning anti racism type that does have much time for all of the things you list below - but also think the negative, argumentative and at times unpleasant way they pushed that agenda was both out of order and also completely counterproductive to trying to change hearts and minds.
I've said it before on here - the friendly left can be some of the least tolerant and most abusive on here.

Oh I agree, they didn’t have any tolerance whatsoever for those with differing views.
It was fun though, watching them gradually coax the bigots into saying something utterly outrageous, but that’s very much old school politics now.
As you say, hearts and minds. I’m not convinced it will ever work, but willing to give it a try.
I’ll start with my crackpot window cleaner this week.

They come back every couple of weeks pal. (n/t) on 19:05 - Jan 27 by Bloots
Foooters does but I really don’t think Sprucey’s ever been back. Yes he went a bit too far sometimes - but he was very self-aware, knew it, and removed himself because he didn’t like that aspect of his life. Said he wanted to do more important stuff - rang true imho. He was largely a good poster I thought, his US election posts in particular were superb, I do wish he’d return but doubt it’ll happen.

….a run of about 50 posts where he did nothing but have a go at other posters.
It became relentless.
