Guest Posted December 10, 2023 Report Share Posted December 10, 2023 Ok. Having had a number of posts deleted (presumably as a result of being reported by someone who thinks they are the guardian of this forum and that only their views count), I'm out of here. Best of luck everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck everyone. I haven't reported your posts from earlier, maybe just maybe the mods decided they were unnecessary and off-topic like I said they were. Take care (I guarantee you'll be back though this is an attention seeking "I'm out" post after all). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it's clearly a very fluid situation. Yeah it does seem to have been deemed acceptable to be abusive in response to posts like these, but I'd rather Ozanne just try not to gatekeep the thread whilst simultaneously trying to provoke reactions out of people.

Calling out someone for using foul language isn't the same as gatekeeping. You meanwhile have to call put crazyfool for daring to come back and post on this thread, because you have some weird vendetta against him. And then say that someone is attention seeking when they say they're out of this thread, in case they do decide to then come back and post, and you'll be able to throw it right back in their face. Classy. But anyway, if you can just try to behave decently we can move along and continue with the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyfool01 Posted December 10, 2023 Report Share Posted December 10, 2023 Can we move on now please … I’m sure some might not agree with how we moderate and my shoulders are broad enough to accept that will always be the case . We are however attempting to make this thread as pleasant as we can given the sometimes challenging subject matter . Having 2 of us moderate means we discuss all reports and will work together to try and achieve the best result for this thread and posters and Efests in a purely voluntary role . Anyway I’m just awaiting being added to the govt list along with the leftie lawyers … those damn leftie moderators on efests Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We agreed that response . You’ll always get differing opinions we are trying to juggle 65 balls and spin plates at the same time . We have the same objective and that’s despite the objections to the contrary that this place remains as decent as we can make it … or we step away and allow a free for all ( not happening ) or the thread gets deleted completely.

It is a forum to get excited about festivals predominantly That was confusing because when other people have apparently tried to wind people up they've been told it's against the rules, I understand that it's fluid but it seems that for some posters those rules previously enforced become flexible.
