Ducati Sporting Club UK > General > Idle Chat > Is Henners Banned from posting ?

[Rally]

OK, let me get this straight:

When someone post things that the MT don't agree with, they get moved onto the 'moderated list'.

When someone posts, on multiple threads, a continuous tirade of abuse against someone the MT doesn't agree with, it's allowed to go un-checked.

Am I the only one to think this is very 'interesting'?

The best way forward is to report the posts in question using the Bad Post Report button. I'm not saying that that addresses your implicit question, I'm just suggesting that that is the best way forward. If you get my meaning.

Yeeaaassss.... but, Loz, you have to admit that it doesn't sound right? I'm sure the webteam will be along shortly and clear up the worst of Dave's scatological out bursts... but if there was anyone more deserving of being put on a Moderated List then I've not come across them. Meanwhile I'm not aware of anything that Henners has posted that has been so objectionable (to me as a member rather than the MT at least).

Agreed.

Good grief - this is getting all so ridiculous

If you really feel the need to play big brother then at least be consistant!

I can see one poster in here at least who does not comply with the AUP rules

General Rule 1.1

So wheres the - report this post- button ?

It's the red triangle icon near the bottom left of each post (although you don't see that icon when viewing your own posts!).

I do hope that the offending posts are withdrawn soon (if they haven't been already). It's simply a matter of reporting the posts to ensure that the WT are aware.

If for some reason the posts are left in place and you are unhappy with this (as I would be if I reported them), I would ask the WT to justify their actions - via a PM.

Some matters are best dealt with quietly. We are all (mostly all) entitled to free speech, but there's a responsibility incumbent on all of us when we exercise that right. Consideration of the consequences and all that.

"But some are more entitled than others." Ok, bad Animal Farm reference but one that I think is appropriate here.

I believe that some of the offending posts from this evening are getting dealt with - threads disappearing as we speak - so there's some progress on dealing with the alleged double-standards of censorship that you're concerned about.
If there's concern about the wider issue of double standards - a quiet word with the WT should clear that up. If it doesn't ... well, one step at a time, let's not seek trouble before it's happened.
