Never had any beef with him personally & enjoyed the banter.

Firmly believe either everything is sacred or nothing is sacred and as such I was not offended by mike hunt.
But this isn't my board, and i don't make the rules, so I'll respect those that do make the rules, and respect their decisions whether i would make the same decisions or not.
Find this thread to be interesting yet bizarre to be honest.

What is the point in asking people to keep voting when the mods have clearly said they will not reverse the ban??

This is a QPR messageboard not an election.

Hitman why don't you ask mikehunt why he behaved as he did and if he feels any remourse or regret?
It won't make any difference regarding his ban but it would be good to know anyway.

There is no doubt Mike Hunt deserved to be banned, as others before him. We reallydont need help in
understanding who comes here to push the envelope constantly nor those that come here to cause
splits, doubts, and try everyones patience. Then there are some that we let back that keep banging
away at trying to be "martyred", again.
Settle down Mr. Hitman.

I must have missed a lot of his best work then as I have little recollection of this Hunt geezer other than that his username really was unsuitable for a public forum.
Got to play by the rules and abide by the Moderators decisions though.
If he was as pernicious as y'all are saying then I'm sure he's signed on elsewhere and has long forgotten about this messageboard.

Hunt has been banned but there is room for more if they cannot obey the ethos and rules of this site. Thankfully the bans have been very few indeed.
Although there are some on other MB's that continually proclaim that they have been banned on here, but if they tried to, they would find that they can indeed login. Instead they prefer to bang their own Martyr drum. If that's what they want so be it for them to choose.
Off the top of my head I think there's been about 4- 6 banned users and 3-5 of them are not obvious persons from other well known websites. Some like to forever portray the victim and they can come on here anytime they wish to. The price of Martyrdom I guess.
Banning a user on this site is done with consultation amongst the Mods so that a consensus is agreed upon as we each view things differently. Banning is only done once all the right buttons have been pushed by the alleged offender, not on a snap decision time scale. We like to let one hang themselves properly before any action is taken.
Anyway, Mike Hunt managed to suceed where others have failed.

Seriously...what the HELL is this thread all about?? Hitman, are you Mike Hunts best buddy or something? Quite frankly, the man was a poisonous toad who did nothing besides complain about QPR and post vulgar GIF files, which I actually found rather offensive on occasion. I'm far from a prude, but I don't expect to come onto a Rangers messageboard and see a picture of some skateboarder losing his face after an accident over and over again, to name but one example. And he wouldn't stop, thought it was all hilarious. As with Rory, he also has personal vendettas, and dishes out crude insults mainly comprised of extreme foul language and very little intelligent content. These are not the attributes generally associated with members attempting to discuss their opinions in a (generally) civilised way. Many of us fall out because we disagree strongly with eachother, but this doesn't result in over the top personal attacks using all names under the sun. He's a stain, and the board is far better off without him. The administrators made the best decision by banning him, and I certainly don't see what justification there is for allowing him to return based merely on the fact that we stayed up this season? Finally, I don't ever recall him starting a decent discussion, only deteriorating existing threads. Perhaps I missed something there, but either way...a flat out NO. Well said Al. Some of the pictures he was posting towards the end crossed the line and they were extremely offensive in a way that ramped up the meaning of offensive. I would imagine that they were taken down fairly quickly and the mods decision made shortly after. Not only were there the vids that Al mentioned but for me the picture of Rory's 'date' finished it. |

well, seems like the majority have voted to keep the ban in place. I fully support the majority dicision along with my own personal opinion of giving everyone a second chance.
The biggest worry which has come to light though is the fact that no matter which way the vote would have went, the decision between the mods will always stand.
i ask you mods one question.............................
Where would this message board be without its posters? not valuing or supporting or even deliberating over a majority opinion of posters views on any particular matter (one example this thread) only serves to alienate not only the posters but also the views of that majority.
This message board is as much owned by the people who contribute a viarty of views on any given subject matter as much as it belong to those of you who create, moderate and police it.
bear that in mind.
lodonranger, i am very settled down. what is wrong with this thread? you seem offended?

Forums/messageboards aren't a democracy. Site Admin/Moderators are here to make these decisions with the messageboard's members' best wishes at heart. As they have already said, they don't take these decisions likely so, when they do decide to take this type of decision, they will have an absolute 100% consensus that it will be the correct one so why on earth would they then even think about changing it based on opinions from those who were not privy to all the facts or the discussion that took place leading up to it. 2. Polls on messageboards are there to gauge opinions on set subjects bit should rarely e used in order to change moderating decisions, especially given that 21 votes is hardly representative of the membership. 3. At the end of the day, it's the Admins/Mods responsibility to ensure that the board remains a friendly place to be therefore it should be solely down to them to make such decisions. As a moderator of another forum, the above is my opinion based on personal experience. |

I don't want you banned S.hitman, your comedy value is priceless. I was merely suggesting you were a better candidate for it than Mr hunt, cos at least he was QPR. |

One other point to make, not only is it in threads that we judge but also various pm's sent to the various mods which the general users do not see nor know the contents of other than the sender. When a lot of personal complaints are received we do have to investigate it and then again, make a consensus call.
We try to be fair to the overall membership. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
Why is it that you slated this site and the users on another MB anyway? So far in this thread you have been given ample lattitude to express yourself and you have done so. So you cannot accuse this site, it's members nor it's moderators of not giving you a fair chance and go as expressing your views.

Good bit of fishing by Hitman here, he is trying to rumble things up a bit. Everyone that posts here knows the rules and 99.9% follow them.
The mods make the decisions about banning/not banning and they do a great job.
While I've been on this site I can think of 3 people that have been banned, all of them deserved.

I can think of only one person that was banned & that was for a really vile, beyond the pale comment that even I was a little bit offended by!
