If your talking about me, I was talking about the many spammers that have been attacking the forum.

With the key word being "kosher", I think Cal_Joe got the gist of it.

Please report it via the report system. That makes it much easier for us to go directly to it and take care of the matter, as opposed to combing through the whole forum looking for it.

Thank you.

Dan told us that we shouldn't report that spammer.

Hi,

Apologies for the recent influx of spam messages in the forums. The moderation team and I are going through the various sections and are trying to keep on top of things. For now, I'd request that you DON'T hit the moderation button when you see a new spam thread.

Thanks for your patience.

Dan

 

[Susan Westemeyer]

hm, I will have to discuss that with him.

Del, I see you did report it. Thanks.

Hoggy (aka BaconBoy) just had his third "last chance". Cool.

does it proves your point?

well, I would like to know exactly what it was that got digger and hog banned.

Link to posts that were trolling and/or baiting please. Is that too much to ask for?

And also, why are these posts not considered the same?

True, The way some go after Frankie is clearly personal. Deliberate lying about what he wrote in order to twist it to fit a narrative.....odd. A very personal attack.

Did you get around to actually reading the article yet?

Why do you keep ranting about things you have not read?

You didn't read it did you?

If this isnt baiting then what is it?

I'm not sure English is your first language so let me clarify for you:

"...there will always be someone trying to buck the system..." means there will always be cheaters and dopers

"With the sport changing for the better..." meaning happening now not already happened.

"We have seen younger cyclists competing at the top level and I believe a lot of their success is due to the sport being cleaner." "er" connotates a comparative not absolute.

Hence, nothing at all in his piece says the sport has cleaned up i.e. that it is clean and all is well and good. Au contraire, it will forever have its cheats. Kinda like this forum where people will always and forever put "arms and legs" changing and distorting the truth despite the fact they can be proven wrong because it fits their agenda and makes them feel like they're right.

Hog, I'm figuring from my last round with you that people take whatever you write with a grain of salt.
The fact remains: Frankie will say on the stand facing perjury that he never saw lance inject himself with something he knew was indubitably a PED. Frankie never saw the transfusions because he was never part of the see-Ferrari-make-millions-dope-to-the-gills buddies.
His affidavit for the usada report states his knowledge of lance's doping adding to the extent that he knew it - which is far different than the people who partook in it with lance - about slew of pills lance was bragging he would take during a race.
Let's just keep things in perspective, shall we?

If youre going to ban people for nothing, at least be consistent and ban everyone and not just the ones that dont buy into the groupthink.

Lying about what Frankie wrote in order to provoke conflict is clearly baiting.

You wrote multiple times about Frankie's "Interview". If you actually read the article you can see it is not an interview. Pointing out that you clearly had not read the interview is not baiting, it is fact.

You must be new here.

You know what freaks me out? People who register in 2010 and then suddenly start posting, very garrulously, in 2014. Like. Dude. If you have so much to say, how the flying frack did you manage to be so quiet all this time.

Goodness...

It's quite simple, really. They needed all those years to meticulously study and review all previous threads and posts, thereby informing themselves of all the little inter-forum squabbles, feuds and alliances, not to mention acquiring all the necessary reference points.

That way, when they eventually found themselves comfortable enough to participate directly, they would feel right at home, in a way that might suggest they had, in fact, been there the entire time.

Or something like that...

The lenght some posters will go to to protect their little crusade from opposing views is quite sad.

If I spent all that time creating baits and reporting posts to get people banned I would take a look in the mirror and ask myself if it was really worth it.

some people spend all their time and energy thinking up clever little comments and paying attention to every post that certain members make....
sometimes better to let it go and do something worthwhile.

You can't fix it, but you can PM a mod the poll question and options you want (and if it's going to be a public poll or not and if it's a multiple answers one as well) and then the mod can add the poll to your thread.

Thanks Netserk...

I usually PM Afrank when things go wrong, and he's usually a fast responder (thanks Afrank) but it's been "awfully" quiet of moderators here of late...
We will see what happens..

I have a soloution, shut the clinic down what good is that place anyway?. People in their especially one or two i will not name basically live in the clinic. Clinic is "mainly" full of idiots imo this is a cycling forum and judging by this thread many in their are little kids.
