So then...forum aside this site has become a little bit of a walking disaster over the last year (and more) as someone pointed out the other day the site rarely gets updated with news since the last writer got fed up of the abuse of doing so..!

Anyway, the good (!) news is that I have a couple of people prepared to write and I have some time that I can devote to it again. What I dont want to happen is the site to become a regurgitation of news elsewhere although news elsewhere can of course create opinion articles.

The question though is what do you - the good readers of Planet Swans (or as seems to be the one person with endless usernames) - want to see from the site going forward?

...or Darran could have pm'd him this advise without publicly highlighting it.


Why would I want to keep Bonys public humiliation by the forum owner private?

I think he was taking the lead from the site owner and chief mod who are airing the dirty linen for us all to see. Very refreshing in today's cloak and dagger world.

Humiliation? Hah I don't think so.

All I was looking for was clarification which Phil has kindly provided.

You are right international breaks have got a lot to answer for

Especially pointless meaningless ones

Bony maybe volunteering his help to the site but he is/was controlled by Phil who was acting in the manner of an employer. You disagree, fine.

The offer was there.

Now can you explain again why you was sacked as a mod by Phil and why would I want to take advice from you as a result.

For the record If anyone has multi user names in future then good luck to them!

Perhaps there should be some sort of competition where posters can submit who they think has multiple user names and what they are.

Lets keep it simple

Theres no logical reason for a ban so there wont be one

And idle threats of banning should not happen on the forum.

Job is done. Matter is closed

Agreed.

Modding this site is a pretty thankless task at the end of the day....and for what?

There are so many worthwhile causes I should be involved with out there at the moment.

And the problem with this site is fcuking obvious to 99% of posters and has nothing to do with swearing.

And I'd be very surprised if many want a news service, since that's one of the key products of social media . By the time one of the would-be journalists has knocked up 500 words on anything interesting, the discussion thread is already 5 pages long.

. . or the thread would be 5 pages long if one individual hadn't shat all over the place and turned a large number of formerly active posters off.

This isn't rocket science.
