Morning, what is the point of posting on here just to get abused by some ? 90% are brilliant, thoughtful, helplful and constructive replies to posts people post on SBT, only to be spoilt by some mindless idiots who can't post an intelligent reply. let alone a polite on.

Ignore them. They resort to abuse because they have nothing more constructive to say.

its the ones where somebody vents their frustration at the current situation - only for some moderator to come on and have a go saying football is the only thing we should talk about. Whereas in reality - the current situation is far more important than the football - as if it continues - there will be no football to discuss

I think some people just like to argue black when it is white. They just want a reaction from you.
You know yourself who they are so either ignore them or do a bit of fishing with them for your own enjoyment.

There are also a few who appear to actually agree with what Sisu are doing, are looking forward to the new ground, hate everything about the Ricoh, but obviously they are not the full ticket.

Some just get personal when they loose the argument.

Put them on ignore. I have done for one particular poster and it has worked a treat for me. Stopped spoiling threads as much as it used to. I was going to report him based on his his incessant spitefullness, but the ignore has worked so far (perhaps I just nee a thicker skin)

All forums will have their WUMs and Trolls VOR. It's part and parcel of the internet. As Monners has said, put them on your"ignore" list. I have about 4 on mine!

"Ignore" is rather excellent. It gives you the added satisfaction of knowing that anyone firing a cheap shot to try and get a rise out of you just ends up sitting there, frustrated. Cheers me up no end. Recommended.

Edit: (There's only one on my list fwiw - don't doubt that I'm on few people's list though! I don't mind, better to ignore than get all shouty, perhaps.)

Sorry V.O.R. its an internet forum, and people will disagree. It is indicative or everyday life in that not everyone agrees and we all see things differently, and I am sure you know full well that people can be far more rude hiding behind a keyboard.

It makes me laugh though that when people argue their point that doesn't agree with the majority they are abused as 'sisu lovers' 'apologists' and 'the usual suspects' and then non one bats and eyelid, and yet when someone argues back they get jumped on. I hate SISU but just get riled at the abuse people get for not toeing the party line, it is pathetic.

At the end of the day you just either deal with it or dont. I have made mistakes and gone over the top in the past, and have received just as bad back, but you move on, and ignore the crap.

You used to make the same complaints VOR when ever somebody questioned your extreme pro-Sisu stance.

Think you may just be sensitive.

This is GMK MarkII, it's like some sort of witness protection programme where people who were rabidly pro-Sisu are given new identities as rabidly anti-Sisu people.

So what is that post then if it isn't trying to cause an argument? Along with a % of your post history?

I don't hate anybody, I have never met you to hate you. All of the standard checks haven't shown anything up or alerted us to duplicate accounts, I haven't done any digging into usernames though.
