He trolls with new threads promoting racism, bigotry and hatred every day and nothing is ever done.

Racism, bigotry and hatred aren't against the rules here. People aren't banned because you don't like their attitude. Herbert understands the language boundaries here and that's why he's never banned. Those who continually get banned usually don't understand the boundaries, have no self control or think that abusing someone who irritates them is worth a suspension.

So what does the term "f**k off moro*" come under?

Did Herbie say that?

thats just incorrect. heres how the banning system operates. Andrei logs in once a week, if he sees anything he disagrees with he bans the poster.

Moderators don't have to be fair if it's too difficult for them, but I assume it would depend on how many complaints FD gets about a GM as to whether he/she stays or goes. Andrei's positive attributes would have to outweigh his negative ones.

I should have read back a little further in this thread. Obviously all suspensions are up to the moderator's discretion, but from what I've seen here over the years, if a member mostly sticks to the rules - an occasional slip can be overlooked. Some members do get taunted mercilessly and if they snap, then surely that can be forgiven.

complaining about the mods... is pathetic.....I agree some of the rules are weird... I was told by someone they got a warning before being banned.. but that didnt happen to me...no such thing as a fair trial on here.. Wink

.

how ever most of us thankfully know right from wrong...and calling people names is so immature...

and calling someone an Idiot or the M word is name calling and immature.

What do you mean by taunted? E.g. if we count Herbie, because he constantly posts things which I think are wrong or biased, I will continue to challenge them. I don't consider that taunting, I consider that answering.

heres something I bet you dont know. posters arent banned because someone complains about them or because they break the rules. There is no rhyme or reason for the bannings, its simply how how Andre feels on the day. I dont really care but its ridiculous to try and say there is some sort of system going on here, there isnt.

Herbie's love for Bindi may have been going on for a long time, however, it's certainly not a "big yawn".

Don't you remember what true love was like, cods?

I know why. And that is because I read the most active Threads. It was none other than Mr. W. Mitty (aka Herbert) who introduced us to his very personal salivation for Bindi Irwin. Mr Peccary is simply referring to what Walter himself brought to us.

Why don't you ever complain about Herbie's hate-fueled troll threads?

Taking sides?
