As I said earlier, I think the smoothest forums are run with anonymous moderators. Having said that, this is not one of them.

Annie, or any other moderator here, is only human and when snipes and insults are persistently hurled her/their way by some members it's only natural that they will at times retaliate.

why dont they [mods] retaliate on the boards for everyone to see..

AT the "members" who everyone are complaining about...

AA finds it ok to put mantra in her place... [ and myself]..why not those who are the problem??????

lets see a mod slapping a troll down.

That would be inflammatory and unethical. And trolls are pp- just sayen'. They have rights and should be dealt with through the proper process- they shouldn't be 'slapped down". Smiley

well this thread suddenly went "berserk" doing a lambie...

why the hell mantra comes in for a serve I will never know..she is about the mildest on here..

If a person is angry Cods - a mild response unfortunately makes some people even angrier. If I stooped to the level of those people who insult and abuse me, they'd probably be a lot happier.

I don't want him banned, by the way: just slapped down a little.

Like I said though, it aint gonna happen: Herbie -the king of all trolls - obviously has a friend in this forum (he needs all he can get, I suppose).

Troll on, Herbie.

Come now, Mantra. So now I'm throwing my weight around? You just said I wasn't doing enough.

Which is it?

Your problem with me is that I am a woman. I know it and so do many others. None of the other moderators receive a negative word from you, but you continuously snipe at me. It would be amusing if it weren't so pathetic. Out of all the ridiculous little fights you've had on this forum over the years, what proportion of your "foes" have been women?

Think about that.

This is not an issue about females. Have you spoken to the other moderators about this?

About your issues with women? Not really. It's embarrassing to witness, let alone discuss.

Anyway, once again I've let myself be dragged into a Feedback thread that may have been started with the best intentions, but quickly descended into a whine. My mistake. I'll leave you to it.

that isnt a slap down I take it???????

thats the trouble greg.. not many of us see herb as a troll....I havent seen him stalk you relentlessly or anyone else to be honest...

in fact its the other way round.. trolls stalk him..

just because you dont agree doesnt make you a TROLL....not taking a HINT can have an effect though...PEST is another word to be used....

a PEST at least we know what that means..who likes biting insects?????... no one.... Angry

..

well thats what I associate with a troll/pest...I want to swat them and I cant...

A bit of give and take- they were both giving and they were both taking- I don't get involved as I have been absent and I don't know what is going on these day's..

Generally I don't recommend any mod slap down anyone on a public board.. a light slap on the wrist is perfectly ok, and these 2 fine women were wristing each other all afternoon Smiley

Most people on here see him as a troll.

And, I said he's a troll, not a stalker.

I've never once accused him of being a stalker.

However, he is the biggest troll on this forum, bar none. I'll stand by that comment til the day I die.

Troll: "a troll is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory ... messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response ..."

Sheesh! And you were at Debate & Delete with Walter for years and do you really reckon it is only 'lately' he does not engage in discussion and merely makes pronouncements? Huh?

Oh, its become a great deal more pronounced. Obviously this is part of his trolling strategy.

I agree with that stuff you said about 'trolling.' Mr Mitty has no idea he does it ~ I hope.

Don't you believe it. Herb knows what he's doing and he does it very, very, very well. Occasionally though, he does let slip what he really thinks and it is very much complete at odds to his public persona.

I'm still waiting to have it explained to me how some bloke became a very Senior Officer in London's Metropolitan Police Force at about age 19.

Won't happen. Herbie will just spin more lies. Wink
