Removed Thread 19:49 - Sep 20 with 6474 viewsPhilTWTD

Removed the thread because it became nothing more than very personal attacks. It's really going to be a very long three-week break if that's the way things are going to be.

For the sake of any doubt, doxxing other users, scanning through their personal social media for 'ammo' for arguments on here is really out of order and a long way from the spirit of the Forum and how it should be.

It got to the 34th page and someone suggested that Ed Sheeran should be used as a draught excluder so Phil thought "this is just getting ridiculous now" and removed the thread.

I like the idea of a padlock myself from other sites I frequent with MODs and time to delete certain details , but sometimes some threads go so far beyond that and so quickly they just need destroying no matter how frustrating or how many wonderful posts are lost.
Unless we had a group of full time MODs on here there’s no way Phil,Gav etc can cope with the traffic…and with MODs that itself can open a whole new row of cans of worms.
So yep… Phil in this case has no option or certainly the lesser of evils… poor sod can’t win.


Not sure on the functionality of the backend restricting this, but I would much prefer this as a solution.

In general, deleting the thread means threads like this one become both "sides" blaming the other and nothing actually changes. Regarding that thread, there were some worthwhile contributions which I would have liked to have caught up on.

Well, he did record "Autumn Leifs" so maybe you're on to something.

The simple solution is for posters not to get personal or abusive.

In the past, I think that Phil has filleted threads so that threads are still up but with certain posts taken out but this is probably a real inconvenience.

The trouble with padlocking threads is that some posts could simply be up for people to see and then reply to them by starting a new thread, which in turn fuels more threads etc etc.

Old fashion take here, maybe just use a football forum to talk about football.

I'd get rid of the general section. Because away from the people who post on here there seems a rather dull view of TWTD whenever I've mentioned it in conversation pre/post games.

It clearly isn't a simple solution!

If someone replies with a new thread then that is clearly against the rules, no?

It isn't about the topic, it's about the behaviour, regardless of talking about football or general topics- it's unacceptable to dox other users, scan through their social media and use it for 'ammo' on here, just because you didn't like their take on a subject - be it about who should be starting in goal, or the actions of a musician.

I might be way off with this statement, but I highly doubt anyone goes to those lengths if it was ONLY football being discussed.

Of course its wrong to do as you mention those posters have done. I'm not defending them for that

nope, just saying if you want to avoid the general chat, it's extraordinarily easy.

plenty of people use it and enjoy it, why cancel it because of a few bits of bad behaviour?

Didn't you spend quite a while contributing to the general section last week when it was about immigration?

Because it's a clear attempt to divert attention from what actually happened in the thread.

Why mention that and not the actual case that happened in the thread being discussed?

I think everyone knows why.

Because one was based on information a user posted and one was a user going searching off the site for things to use against people?
