LOL Hardly trying to be a mod, just trying to help!

You can't help anyone on this site, you will always get a reply "stop tryin to be a mod".

Thought you would know that by now spinner!

Oh i do, but it wont stop me! LOL

Always worth it for the occasional "thanks m8"

Post removed by an admin

oooooo go brighteyes!!!!!!

i think spinner's got a fan

You mean nick's got a fan!

haha that was an awfully fast removle....lol i'm quite proud of myself for that, been waiting a long time to say that :-P.

oooo look, someone with an opinion, be careful brighteyes they will probably remove your posting abilities, they do to most people with opinions, wait for this to get removed haha!

you know, i understand that posts that are mean to individual users and that are not allowed, but honestly its getting out of hand. i've been nothing but polite on these forums, and been a well good funkypool user (even though my rank is terrible), but this is honestly quite retarded . I'm starting to lose my hope in all of funkypool's mod and admin abilities. spinner's been well out of hand on MULTIPLE threads, and now he is just targetting the silliest of threads to be mister perfect and get his sarcastic word in last. go on then and put me in time out, or whatever your punishments are for nasty posts, but someone needs to have a word with HIM. i think you'll find many people have had it up to their head with his comments, and just because he says them sarcastically.....doesn't mean they aren't insults . whew...never thought i'd be one of the ones writing an essay...

Well said!!!

No swearing, not abusive, if it gets removed then it's a joke..

Ok…

I removed your post because you used an inappropriate word to describe another member, and seeing as young children might be using these forums i was well in my rights to remove it.

Everything else in the post was ok apart from that, but i can't see how making another post defending what you said makes sense? If you don't like the guy fair enough, but as far as i can tell he's not used similar language towards you.

And kryptonite, this isn’t your cue to come in with an extended essay about how users are hard done by, even when they have been clearly abusive. In fact I would seriously advise you against it, especially when you’ve made your point here already.

You might want to look at the terms of use regarding multi-using?

the terms regarding multi using are that the person in question will get deleted if they break the rules. No warnings are needed.

However with no rules broken there should be no need to delete anyone.

You can edit posts, just remove the word, not hard is it!

We all know spinner is your friend and you will ban us all to keep us quiet, we have opinions, there banned on funkypool...

I'll say what i want, i wasn't abusive to anyone was i and i haven't swore, i have read the multi-using policy and have spoken to simon about it a few times, as long as i don't break rules im ok, unless having an opinion is going against rules?

Wouldn't suprise me...

pool life you missed a few on the first page...

Announcing that there is multi-using going on in this thread? Ermm are we supposed to really know that as users?

EDIT: so kryptonite is a multi user? Shock horror!!

Edited at 15:41 Wed 26/07/06 (BST)

Good point, anything else you want to tell us pool_life?

Bunzarino.

Firstly I’m allowed to say that, and secondly i didn’t mention who is it, which I’m not allowed to say!

Hope that's cleared things up for you, and thanks for your concern on the matter. Now we can all move on with what the thread was originally about.

Is the above statement not in relation to kryptonite?

I'm not quite done. I understood why you deleted my first post, but thanking you for making it clear. Something many mods seem to lack doing. It makes sense to me, because everyone seems to be having troubles like this. I just need to say somethings now. I'm normally a very well behaved user, and i'm not one to come out kicking and screaming and cursing, i usually just keep quiet and let things play out how they are. But this has been bothering me, and has been spiralling causing me to lose all hope and respect for funkypool. I would like al point out, that previous successful mods, such as eve, middlesboro, bunz, squeezy, etc, have all had wonderful relationships with the users. Mods need respect, and the mods now (no offence to you directly) do not have this respect. I feel that the mods now are more robots than anything. Mods need to be able to explain to users why they do what htey do. Not just delete things and hid behind a curtain.

I feel like the mods now are very unapproachable, when i have a problem i'm not very likely to go to them for help, because when i have in the past, i have not gotten results. Spinner's behavior (not to drag him into this) is just another example. The mods that have been most successful would have had a word with him, or told him to calm his responses. The mods now are more like robots than anything, and i'm not meaning this straight at you pool life, so i'm sorry if it causes offense. I just think you need to take a look back at the strategies of previous mods, and maybe aim that more towards how you handle things now. We all know there has been much controversy over things like this, and how mods handle posts and everything like that.
