Posts on here last night 12:28 - Feb 25 with 34520 views | Northernr | Firstly, apologies from myself - I thought it was safe enough leaving grown adults who all support the same team to post on here without a babysitter for a few hours each Saturday night, and I was wrong about that. We'll have to look at some alternative moderation ideas for matchdays, or just put the board on read only on Saturday nights as certain pathetic individuals cannot be trusted. Cheers guys, another headache for me, and an absolute pain in the ars for all the normal, non-crazy people who want to use the forum as a forum. Secondly, the two accounts involved have posted on here for a long time but both have now been suspended. We will not tolerate threats of any sort on here, or that sort of behaviour, or that sort of language. Thirdly, apologies for only just addressing this now, late one last night and I'm at work today so have just seen it. Tried tidying the match thread up ads best I could. Fourthly, we haven't had moderation on here, other than myself, for years and it's a better forum for it, but that can only continue if everybody behaves themselves. | | | | |

Posts on here last night on 12:41 - Feb 25 with 16612 views | TacticalR | Just one of those things. Two posters who are normally ok went at it while everybody else (already traumatised by the Forest result) watched the car crash. | |

It was incredible, thought I had stepped into a parallel school play ground universe for a few minutes !! The two of them were pathetic !! [Post edited 25 Feb 2018 16:52]

Posts on here last night on 19:17 - Feb 25 with 15827 views | ShotKneesHoop | That thread was all so out of the normal standard of posting yesterday that I thought Trump had hacked LFW. It goes to prove that this site always needs moderating - LFW is all the better for that. The result against Forest should not matter, as we should be used to shyte football after Hughes and Rednapp, after three years of those shysters, we should be able to suck on any result. Arsenal fans have five years in front of them of learning how to live with crap management. As Shakespeare wrote in "Romeo and Chardonnay" - "Those involved need to find a mirror to look into, to seek an arse for an intimate conversation that is best kept to themselves.' Or maybe it was "Thirteenth Night". [Post edited 25 Feb 2018 19:20]

Posts on here last night on 21:59 - Feb 25 with 15432 views | ted_hendrix | Thought last night was a shame and unnecessary, there used to be a bloody big bloke on here moderating who's name escapes me, we met up at WBA's ground once and he worked for an American airline, he wouldn't have put up with that bolox last night. I don't post or visit any other sites but this one, in the old rival day's you could have one hell of a craic on here but almost to a Man most of them don't post anymore which is a shame. Don't think you need to apologise Clive. | |

Posts on here last night on 03:31 - Feb 26 with 15119 views | PlanetHonneywood | In the cold light of the morning after, not having a moderator facility in this day and age is a bit naive. The site and thus Clive, are left exposed to the vicissitudes of stupidity, nastiness and thus, potential litigation. Which to come back to Clive's earlier post, is a shame. When the fans forums burst into life in the late 90s, they were without the petty rancor we see all too often today. Frankly, it was fun to be able to converse with many around the world as it was for those far-flung Rfosi to feel included. Maybe it was the novelty of the day, but the banter was immense. Where us lot up in Manchester would arrange to meet others on away days and in it's own way, it lent itself to a unifying of the fansbase. It's a bloody shame that it's descended to the levels it frequently does and thus fragmenting the fanbase. Social media in general has become the domain of the small-minded troll, hiding behind the internet to pour forth their bilious content! Years back, an idiot confined their ideas within their own social group but today, the internet gives a larger platform for people with low skill levels of social interaction to be heard. I joined one of those QPR facebook groups: what a collection of a-holes! I soon left and reading on here, it seems so have many others. I left one other forum I was on as it had descended beyond a point of being acceptable discourse between fans of the same bloody club. The days of Battletank's qpr.org are sadly confined to history. Seriously, what is to become of us all if we cannot vent different ideas about the same issue, without threats and insults? So, as the general view is one that Clive should not have to apologise, I think to regain some level of control, this site needs to restate the rules of engagement, exact a written commitment from all that we will abide by those rules and, I'm afraid Clive, suspending is not sufficient; outright banning is what is required as much for you as it is for us. | |

Posts on here last night on 04:51 - Feb 26 with 15077 views | JAPRANGERS | Because of the time difference, I didn't see what all the fuss was about. Clive had already cleaned up the thread by the time I got there. But I gather it was absolutely awful and disgusting. Why can't we all just respect each other's views? We all support the same team. | | | |
Posts on here last night on 04:52 - Feb 26 with 15076 views | JAPRANGERS | Sorry this happened Clive. You have enough on your plate running this site as it is. | | | |
Posts on here last night on 07:59 - Feb 26 with 14894 views | QPRski | Clive, I hope that that this incident does not dishearten you to quit this this site. Because it were me, I would probably want to throw it all in. I now very rarely post on LFW, but the match previews and reports are a major part of my personal QPR experience and I regard them as an extremely knowledgeable insight. Plus, the quality of the writing is probably unmatched on a football forum and is a pure pleasure to read. I really hope that this will be a major “lesson learned” for users of this forum to cherish and value what they have, as nothing last for ever! [Post edited 26 Feb 2018 8:03]

Posts on here last night on 09:38 - Feb 26 with 14588 views | stevec | Missed it all, that'll teach me to go out on a Saturday night. From the snippets on here, sounds like it went too far, but you get Barney's go off in even the best of Establishments from time to time. Hopefully get the people concerned to shake hands in some form of electronic fashion and we all move on. Top forum and hoping moderation not required over one incident. | | | |

Yeh death threats probably a touch too far I reckon. | | | |
Posts on here last night on 09:50 - Feb 26 with 14558 views | Phildo | I think I picked the right weekend for a jolly boys to Amsterdam all round. The whole social media world- football politics etc seems to have taken a dark turn about 18 months ago. Would not want to do any job in the public eye now the shit they all get. | | | |
Posts on here last night on 10:00 - Feb 26 with 14516 views | westberksr | well it was my 50th on Saturday so decided to give QPR a miss (brilliant decision) and couldn't be arsed yesterday with catching up a ridiculous defeat chat (another brilliant decision) played footy yesterday and must of had a similar exchange with one of the opposition who thought an over 35 vets game was the place to start WW3, threatening to 'hurt someone', which I can't abide. life is too short for this crap. Clive you deserve a medal mate | | | |
Posts on here last night on 10:06 - Feb 26 with 14476 views | Dorse | Frankly, I expect better. I mean, a shotgun is soooo 2003. It's all computer fraud and death by identity theft now. And the 'c word'? All the kids are using the 'h word' these days! They've let themselves down there. [Post edited 26 Feb 2018 10:10]
