I hear he got six months but with parole he should be out in four

Anyway ... who needs the board, there are other ways to continue chat with friends and debate the issues of the day ... funny enough it all seems to be in a good and friendly spirit as well

Unfortunately point 1 is in direct opposition to point 2. I too am puzzled as to why Henners is being moderated. As far as I am aware, he hasn't contravened any of the listed items in the T&C. I am aware that he is not popular with the MT after events earlier this year.

Meanwhile, another member demonstrates flagrant disregard of T&C items 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and possibly 1.5 and is allowed to post un-moderated. The fact that this abuse of the T&C has been directed towards someone else who is not popular with the MT I find 'interesting'.

I certainly don't believe this is best left unchallenged, hushed up, done by PM or email, etc. This is a discussion forum, after all, and this matter is definitely worthy of discussion.

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnn i don't believe some of you guys....

the guy has been 'moderated' for what the people who you PAID and VOTED in as MT members for the good of the club... .they have not moderated him because they were bored or throwing the toys out of the pram, they will have done it for the good of DSC...

you ALL voted for these people and entrusted them with this task.... now they enforce it, you start moaning like 5 year olds.

Sigh.

Guys,
I never like getting involved in club politics but this doesn't feel at all right.It is well known that i am good friends with Henners and therefore wont pass any comment on his passion for this club but to stop debate is setting us all on a rather difficult path and when informed and moderate members such as Rally and 749er to name but a few,put their points of veiw as they have and as well as they have then it is time to rethink, reconsider and reveiw core values.

Debate and sometimes opposition to various issues, as annoying as it might be should be incouraged as this is the sign of a healthy club ,any club veto should only be used as a last resort and with full transparency and benefit to all the members.

MT please !!!, this is now getting to the heart and minds of the moderate in this wonderfull club

Its like a playground here at the moment.."But sir,he said blah blah wibble.."

Anyone who comes and views this board with a view to becoming a member,must be wetting themselves at some of the stuff that is going on..

actually - this is a PUBLIC forum as anyone can register - you dont have to be a member of the DSC to particpate.

Could this be the death of the DSC Online?

I hope not.

Agreed, but

a. If you're not a MEMBER of the club, surely you have to accept they can decide whether to allow you to post.

b. You sign up to the rules and T&C's in advance.

c. The members vote in the MT and WT etc....

God it gets on my nerves when people who pay nothing expect everything as their right, and complain when someone who does pay complains about them !
