If I were you, cruyff, I'd ban dream_team from the forum.
On what grounds? They're going to have to be pretty narrow to justify banning him without sweeping a bunch of other posters up in the same net.

Too many people around here look to take (and return) offense. W.C. Fields has it right below. Of if your tastes run to a higher class of thinker:

"A gentleman will not insult me, and no man not a gentleman can insult me." - Frederick Douglass


IMO, the Pizzmeister has been in a class of his own since joining the board. Even his initial, unprovoked forays were that of a rabid animal, and he speaks to everyone whom he disagrees with in a snipey, combative tone. But he's our cunt, right? One thing though, I really can't stand how many threads he hijacks these days. It makes me want to lay some ground rules.

On grounds of going around calling other people cunts and in general picking fights with everyone and ruining threads.

But yeah, SEVERAL posters would have to be banned if we took that action. My apologies for singling you out, pizzy!

I'll just go back to ignoring it now.
treefingers are you aware cruyff actually insulted me first? what a joke!

No one can hijack a thread without the participation of others.

Don't like the tone? Ignore it. My sense is that most of us come on here for dialogue. Those unwilling to generate it without resorting to abuse or insults will ultimately disappear if no one engages them. Isn't that what more or less happened with paulie and sixyardbox in the other forum?

really? can you point out the threads I've hijacked in a manner different from what others have been doing, can you also show me where I've thrown insults at people without them insulting me first?

not that I actually needed anyone to support me but I'm glad DSCH is showing once again why he's arguably the best poster on this board.

It's a joke when I'm called to be banned because I insulted cruyff after he insulted me! insulted JODB after he insulted me.

Cruyff was the first to insult Dream. As the administrator, your use of that word is disappointing.

How about this? Let's allow posters to inform other posters that they would prefer not to communicate with them anymore. If that request is not honored by the other poster, that poster gets banned for a month, second offense, adios.

It would be understood that if such a request is made, it's a two-way street. This would cover trolling for the other poster in either overt or subtle ways as well.

I'll start fresh and with a clean slate for my three antagonists. Insults have gone both way AND started both ways, so no one on either side of any divide has any reason to act any more aggrieved than anyone else. If down the road, I or any of my antagonists has had enough, we'll put in the request for a communication embargo.

Works for me, and I'll bet if implemented, will be helpful for the forum.

chilli dont like d personal insults but it appears 2 b part & parcel of footy forums. many posters on here never hurl one single cuss at any direction-nobody is obliged to insult or b insulted. but if u insult, dat insult may come back thousand fold.

how would that work? suppose santry starts a sarcastic thread on 'panic buy', obviously he won't address anyone but who is he talking to?

or are you just limiting to replying directly to a post. i.e by quoting or referring to it
