Admin Admin - has the main Olympics thread gone too? I can’t find it in search though I can see the (almost-redundant) Olympics Football thread).

Thanks.
All off-topic has been hidden, just use the olympic football thread for now for olympics and I'm sure the other section will be back in a couple of days once it's cooled down a bit and stuff can be merged over if needed
 
It's ironic because when I first joined this forum the football section was full of cunt offs and the off topic was good natured and funny. Over time it flipped and became a lot more charged and political
 
I only come here for the US politics thread these days...thought I'd have a holiday from the Spurs thread in off season...

I understand the decision, I guess things got a bit fraught over the riots...
 
Forums are weird. In real life I basically get on with pretty everyone but on here I get sucked in like many other posters. Not a good look.

I’m sure 99.9% of the people on here wouldn’t have the balls to say what they say on here to someone’s face.

Give someone a cloak of invisibility, and they’ll be a completely different person. Unfortunately there’s a number of posers on here whose sole purpose is to wind others up, and some members bite.

I’ve said it before, but if people get so aggravated by someone - put them on ignore, it would make everyone’s life a lot easier, not least Admin Admin ’s

True. I got far less aggravated when I had a lot of posters on ignore.

Problem with ignoring users is that they then have the freedom to post whatever kind of shite they want without the threat of being carded, as so many people have them on ignore. I’d suggest that when a user is ignored by more than say a dozen posters, they get hit with the ban hammer.

I’d agree with that…

But I’m one of the many prolific posters on the most ignored list…so thanks but no thanks

There are a number of trolls on here whose sole intention is to wind people up like you say, they don't come into discussions in good faith, it is simply to try and agitate and stir both in footballing discussion and political (from all sides of the spectrum, regardless of belief or leanings) and frankly I think some need to seriously grow up and learn how to handle opposing opinion and deal with it in a mature way.

Some simply refuse to just agree to disagree and walk away or they lack the ability to use introspection and say "maybe I am wrong here" just in general people need to be more humble and kind to one another.

I am sure some may even read this post as an attack, it isn't at all, I would just like to see a more mature level of discussion on here.
