Remember back when the forum decided mods needed to give extra attention to the Lance & Floyd threads, and mods would read there daily so they could nip stuff in the bud with a timely warning to keep the thread on track?

That probably needs to be happening with the Sky clinic threads.

Maybe they read them, but don't think any action should be taken

Just read Afrank's response to me (post number 6623).

I wouldnt want the sky thread to turn into the Armstrong hate circle jerk thread, but they could at least ban the most blatant trolls that make the thread unreadable.

The problem with not getting rid of the trolls is that good posters will eventually get fed up with all the idiocy and leave, and then this forum will be just like all other forums on the internet when it comes to discussing doping.

I am sure if you kept out of the Sky thread it would be more readable and less good posters would leave, just saying

 

[BigMac]

fixed it for you.

Enache is the most obvious troll since Bpc registered under the username "trolls".

I just don't follow the clininc that much to be able to say if he is indeed a troll. From the posts I've seen from him, he didn't seem like one.

And I hope he comes back after his ban ends.

The "Talented Myth" thread was pretty funny

I'm not sure that Enache was too healthy for the forums, when he wasn't defending Sky he was often accusing posters of never questioning anyone else, even in the RR threads.

 

[Netserk]

looks like you guys need to be threatened in order to start listen to mods...

Next OT about football gets a ban.

Will this work?

Can you blame them when another mod joins the OT discussion *after* a mod had explicitly requested that line of discussion to be moved to the proper thread?

yes, I can.

 

[Dear Wiggo]

yes, I can.

I find it remarkable that mods setting the example are blameless.

Not the first time a mod has joined OT discussion either.

Then stood idly by while his OT companion subtly insults another poster.

MDR!!!!

 

[King Boonen]

I find it remarkable

But do you really? Seems pretty standard to me.

Well he's just made a remark...so I guess it is remarkable.

What the hell kind of thread is this one anyway

Berzin seems to delete/edit all kind of things that he shouldn't.

He sure is vindictive.

Awesomeness from jens. Nothing wrong with it, but he had the wrong opinion, so Berzin censored it.

Well, it is berzin the worst in cycling since lance armstrong

 

[The Hitch]

What jens said was iirc along the lines of - Lemond was upset at Lance cos lance won more than 3 tours.

Sorry, but that is silly. The posting could be considered objectionable as to content.

Not really. Especially if one had read a couple of jens' posts before. The tungue in cheek was obvious.

Obviously it was tongue in check. But the subject matter was on a certain level objectionable, nevertheless.
