Posters That Returned To The Fold 21:18 - Sep 26 with 14741 viewsPhil_S

We are constantly told about posters that leave here never to return but what about those that return to the fold following time away

Murph looked in albeit briefly this week
Morningstar is a very welcome return to the site
Davillin returned earlier to break a site record with the longest post in the history of the world

Who else have we had back and who would we like to pull back out of hiding (I have a knack of doing that...!)

Anthony Santore,

Your arrogance and belief that you're above most of the people of this world is nothing new to most of the people who've suffered you over the past 12+ years.

Originally, I felt that you were misunderstood and backed you against MANY who believed you were a sanctimonious and lonely tw@t who was just seeking attention in order to make your life more interesting, or bearable even. Eventually, you turned on me too.

Your departure from scfc.co.uk wasn't after another "hissy fit" and more displays of your hypocritical (I also know what it means!) arrogance. You talk down to everyone, except those who's rears you stick your tongue up. You believe, somehow, that you're superior because you have read more books or spell things more accurately, when in fact you're just a sad person with more faces than Big Ben.

I've seen you bully people, I've seen you ridicule people, insult people and generally take the "holier than thou" attitude at every occasion possible. WHO do you think you are? (emphasis added too!!!).

All too often I see Americans like you who think "our President bullies he world, so I can too" and it's is pretty "darn" annoying. Americans now think that they're the world's police and Tony Sanctimony is a walking, breathing example and comes with additional "emphasis added", just in case you needed any more.

When I noticed that you'd left scfc.co.uk years ago (because of yet another disagreement with a site "owner") I was relieved, along with many. When I saw months later that you have popped up here, it made me laugh, especially when you had your own "stickies" or whatever they're called.

Now you've alienated yourself again and you're running out of places to go, although Annis seems to be lacking a stat-man to help write his weekly "book of boredom". (can I add emphasis here too please?)

Instead of pointing the finger at Phil, the mods or fellow posters on here, why not try to blend in better, or simply fark off and go support your local team? Nobody's forcing you (or me) to read these pages, are they?

Finally, think about how you're perceived by most - you want to be seen as the "Grandfather of the Site" but in reality (as time always shows) you're far more like the arrogant neighbour who keeps poking his nose over the fence to tell you how your kids aren't dressed right, your wife's not as fit as she used to be and that your house is looking awfully shabby....whilst at the same time sticking your finger up your arse and using it to creosote your side of it!
Ps I know I can be a total tw@t too, but I don't deny that and at least I've mellowed with age! (emphasis finished)


Haha, I've had some runnings with ol Nick here too but they've mostly been pathetic and we largely see the Swans and all that goes on, the same.

Have to say though, that was my favourite post from you ever :-)

You're all out of time....the past was yours but the future's mine.

What a deeply unpleasant place this forum has become in the past month or so.


I would say it goes further back than a couple of months.
Never known since the JA days the gradual increase in personal abuse, and it's clear that there are posters who try to out do the worst abuse with something even more shocking. Just in their minds ..to get the upper hand.
And they say that women are bitchy!
I thought we all had a common interest, that's why we read this site. This place was once funny, informative, and we shared our highs and lows as supporters of one club.

I'd say some of the old timers are just as guilty on that score. It's just the general lifecycle of the format I think.

I agree. You could argue that those reliving old feuds (or even their parents' feuds) are the most responsible. Woodwom is very resilient.

Ooh there's some big fish bait there! I do blame Darren and his agendas though.

Have I ever told the story of how I rushed back from Dallas on a Friday to get back for Rochdale at the Vetch with barely an hour to spare. And we then went on to concede a 94th minute equaliser. Superfan me.

It might be disconcerting and far fetched for you to believe that many of us don't want to keep reading this same, hamster wheel nonsense over and over again, but I'm afraid it's true.

The OP was intended as a light hearted aside to Starsky's silly thread. It was quickly taken over by the usual suspects with their same, boring agendas. So I deleted it.

Congratulations, though. Your self-imposed exile lasted much longer than I expected it to.

Good manners you say?

For the record and just in case anyone cares and to stop more bleating and woe look at me moments this is Tony's record bleating, all 1652 words of it

--
[Someone please copy and save this post as I do not expect it to be up for more than a minute or two. Thanks.]

Well, new depths from you.

1. You reproduced on this public forum some of the contents of a private email exchange -- and did so in spite of the fact that I specifically asked you to not do so -- and to make matters worse, allegedly quoting me while misquoting me. [I'll just give the facts here and allow others to make value judgments. I reproduce the relevant emails below.]

It is beyond any rational explanation that you write that I was "insulting in the same way as those I "criticized," expecting anyone who has read T2C repulsive posts to agree with you.

You made a blatantly false statement when you wrote above that you would "share the patronizing email he sent me on his departure." You did not "share the patronizing email," but left out the core of that email, which, in addition to being a false statement, shows exactly why you make the sad, very sad, attack on me, above -- that I wrote the following to you:

"Phil:

"I suggest you stop deluding yourself about me.

"I will never return to PlanetSwans [I admit that I was wrong there, never in a million years expecting that you of all people would write such false and disrespectful comments that I would have to write what I write here] for two reasons:

"(1) You have allowed T2C to dictate how PlanetSwans is to be run -- and as a result it is one step away from chaos and anarchy. I put the responsibility for that squarely on you. I remember with distaste the fact that you allowed him to dictate the unsticky of my stats. [On a scale of zero to ten, I care zero that they were unstickied; but I care ten that you did it because he insisted insistently that you do.] You "fired" Darran at T2C ' repeated -- and vile -- public campaign, and, I believe the other mods, but if you didn't "fire" them they resigned because you fired Darran. You allowed T2C to so trash the former rules of the forum that it's disgraceful.

"(2) Your posts about me in recent days were often unkind and offensive, something more in the style of T2C . Speaking of whom, he tossed insults around with what amounts to Freedom of the Forum, usually in language I have never used and some I've never heard, yet you blame me for the thread. I can only conclude that it is because I come from a different upbringing.

"It pains me very deeply to say this, but between those two, i have most sadly and regretfully lost respect for you as owner of PlanetSwans. [emphasis added]

"Please do not use your now-usual excuse that I'm on some kind of emotional rant, because I am now even more cool, calm, and relaxed than I usually am.

"Please do not reply because I will bin all email from you without opening it. Please do not refer to this email on the forum. [emphasis added]

"p.s. Contrary to some of the posters and their comments, I care not one dot that I have left PlanetSwans."
______________

2. You deliberately misrepresented what I wrote, largely by omission.

3. You added insult to injury in the post above by (1) violating your own site rules [also included below] by insulting me, and [2] by validating my comments on the worthlessness of your site rules when not even the owner of the site respects them.

4. Without a shred of evidence, you misrepresent my intentions and make me out to be a liar. I did not leave this site because I "backed [myself] into a corner." I left the site because a majority of voting posters voted me that between Semen and me, they wanted me out -- which was the obvious intent of the poll. If you deny that, you will be calling me a liar -- certainly not outside the realm of possibility.

5. The tone of your post above would be inexcusable in any poster, but from the owner of the site, it is abominable.

I reproduce below other emails I have written to you which are most pointedly appropriate to this email [separated by horizontal lines], with your email which prompted one of them. [Turnabout is fair play, and especially more fair when it is a direct quote and not a self-serving misrepresentation.]
____________
A. To Phil Sumbler:

"Mr Sumbler:

"Below this post, I will reproduce a post by the poster who calls himself Swanseajack10, as well as my reply to it, which says all I want to say about it.

"You have known me personally for a very long time [we have broken bread together], and online for even longer. Do you believe that his hateful bile is deserved? Why have you not spoken up and corrected him? If you do not, I will have to understand that you agree with him.

"Also, II would be most grateful if you would answer my question at the end.

"From :Swanjack10:

'i picture a remote barn in the us wilderness with heads pickling in jars and body bits hurled aside ready for supper you odd yank fuking clown, now fukoff and continue reaming the the wild beasts in womens undergarments and lure in your evil semen sticking your eyelashes and roof together you vile inbred banjo riding hic'

"Davillin’s Reply:

"Now there's the perfect example of why people are leaving PlanetSwans.

"And a perfect example of why that poster should be banned for the good of the board.

"The post is so vile that it makes T2C look like Mother Theresa by comparison.

"I'm watching the sad but inexorable and accelerating decline of PlanetSwans in the name of allowing the sewer to overflow into the message boards.

"Phil: if the death of PlanetSwans is your aim, why not just take it offline? If hit count is so important to you that you allow - even encourage - such slime, tell us so we can cut your and our misery short.

"It used to be such a grand source of discussion and debate. And now it's this!"

B. Mr Sumbler:

"The site rules ask this: 'Please help us to moderate the site by reporting any abuse that is likely to offend. We cannot monitor the site 24/7 so we appreciate your help. Please use the tools provided on each message/post.'

"I wish to report the following violation of the rules of this site, posting abuse which 'which is likely o [sic]offend': 'Please respect your fellow posters and refrain from name calling and personal abuse," specifically name calling personal abuse.'

"I wish to report the following violation of the rules of this site: 'Don't swear, post libellous, racist, homophobic, threatening or adult material or harass other users," specifically ".'

'The violation appears in the post above by T2C.

'"I have used the 'report abuse' button.

"I would appreciate knowing what action or actions have been taken on this violation, fully realizing that you may not wish to share that information, which is your right as owner."

_____________
D. This is the only email from you which I reproduce -- because I need it to explain both your bias regarding me and my response.

Your comment:

"Tony

"There is very little point in continuing to report threads/posts - all the mods get them and the only people you are serving to annoy is the people you called your friends

"If you dont like what T2C posts then ignore him but posting all wonderfully that 'the gloves are off' and then reporting him referring to someone as fat is just plain childish and pointless [Added: I note that the offending post referred to as "just plain childish and pointless" was the last of about a dozen reported earlier, all perniciously vile, and none dealt with.]

"Cut out the endless reports please

"Response not expected

"phil"

Davillin'a reply:

"Phil: I use "Response Not Expected," and know that I may respond without offending.

"I won't annoy 'the people I called my friends' with thread/post reporting. And I will sit here in bemused disappointment for having done so. You no doubt understand that I am disappointed by the quoted passage, above.

"'Childish and pointless' -- disappointed again, especially in the context of the difference between what I have done and the chief purveyor of filth on this site.

"The reports from me have ended.

"Best!

"Tony"
____________
I point out that it matters little whether I read insults directed at me, but it matters a great deal if "people I call my friends" do read them.

In conclusion, it pains me to have written this post, but I cannot allow you to violate the privacy of my emails, to misrepresent what I wrote to you, and to violate your own site rules by insulting me online because I dared to comment -- privately -- on your conduct regarding this site.
[Post edited 26 Sep 17:45]
--


This was purely made in response to me saying that on his very public departure and meltdown Davillin sent me an email saying not to reply and if he did I would delete it and not to discuss it on a public message board. Dictating to the end and rude with it mostly too.

He's got a point about putting hit count ahead of quality. The rest of it is just toys out of pram stuff.

Entertaining though.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.
