Mike deciding to shut down the forum

[nugnug]

nggb roch i thought you made very good moderators.

Absolutely, ngb! Jackie has really shown her true colours now, and I am sickened by it. The same goes for Stephanie Hall. What thoroughly nasty individuals they are.

For what it is worth, ngb, I thought you made an excellent moderator on this forum. You were professional and respectful at all times, in my opinion. And as for the crap about you spouted on the red forum, I never once listened it. When it comes from the likes of them, it means nothing! No, you have more people on your side than you think. The same goes for you, Roch.

Thanks Liz.

As the forum may not exist shortly i will post a thought or two.The forum has spilled out into issues that the forum is supposed to offer . Far too much wasted space has been allowed to debate the red forum, these posts and threads should have been locked or removed much earlier.Many members have yet to post ,some of these members joined quite some time ago, as yet we do not know their views, mike if you read this post my input for what its worth is not to close the forum , but instead freeze it pending a new formula that works to encourage these members to begin posting, ending the forum will be seen as a victory for Lamberton, the mods could have stopped a lot of this trouble much earlier, As i see it Jeremy Bamber is most likely never going to be released , its down to you mike if your faith in the truth is stronger to resist closing the forum,its your choice mike its your forum if one member believes justice has not being served that view is worth its weight in gold.

one of the issues nugnug is perhaps not by members faults , we re visit previous threads and go over it again , as one member has said we have debated every possible scenario, a member who believes jb guilty , the members views carry some weight as to the repeat debates, a time allowed to ask zero posters to post is not unfair IMO, or all zero posters could be deleted , if they are interested still they could re join, a blanket ban on any referal to the red forum would be good .

there should  be a blanket ban on people bringing personal disputes that happened elsewhere on to here.

Yes a failure to result in a month ban not rocket science is it?

freeze it pending a new formula

That's what I was thinking yesterday.  Freeze it until such time as it can be restored. Although I think nearly every aspect has been looked at in some form, so there may be some natural wastage among regulars.  However Mike does sometimes surprise me, for example with a renewed angle on an aspect already discussed to death but that makes good sense.

Some of these members with zero posts may have important issues to offer for debate, as they have not started posting we dont know what they are, they may know new things we dont, believe it or not i am on good terms with guilty posters, it must have always been a thought for mike by inviting guilty members to take part , it will at times get heated , its called debate, i still mike would tolerate mild debate than a forum with only innocent posters , if that were the case the forum would have little value.

the genuine guilty posters arnt the problem.

the issues lie elsewhere , issues that can be tackled and put right.

There was a time when guilty and innocent put their thoughts aside and had a laugh on a friday night late , for those members who know what i mean it was called the Wide Awake Club.
