View Full Version : I invite people to compare

Following receipt of a report from a member via the red triangle alert system about some posts in this topic, they have been moved to the Everything Else forum under the title, At my age I can only offer boobs.

A quick link is below:

https://sawatdeenetwork.com/v4/showthread.php?20005-At-my-age-I-can-only-offer-boobs

I think my post was very mild (as anyone can see via the link) - and has even been "liked" by a gentleman of impeccable taste.

I invite people to compare it with the lurid accounts of his sexual activities which are being posted by one of the management team - which are (in comparison to my tame little joke) little more than pornographic filth, and decide which is worse.

As a point of order - can we all have each other's posts moved now just by pressing the red triangle? My index finger is poised as we speak

The posts were moved at the member's suggestion scottish-guy, not because they were lurid, but because they were considered to bear no relation to the topic and more suitable to the Everything Else forum which, of course, is viewable to members and readers.

And the red triangle alert system has been around since December 3rd, 2016. See post #3 by Moses from the Posting rules & guidelines section, which I have quoted below. Many members use it to contact the administration team and we always decide matters referred to us on a case-by-case basis.


If you think what some posts are violating rules, you can call moderator to pay attention to such posts by clicking special icon under each post - red triangle (see picture).

If you're REALLY going to start moving EVERY post ( you collectively decide too) just because "someone" decides to (be anal enough) to hit the big red magic red button I'm guessing the Mod's had better fill a flask, cancel any other plans they've got for the next six months Jelly and prepare to be busy here as I'm guessing you might be here a while.

Without getting into a discussion about that SG's particular ( silly but fairly innocent obviously attempt at a humorous post as SG's was) surely it's always been a "thing" that threads on SGF wander and surely that shouldn't change on a whims of someone hitting that nuclear button unless it's something quite serious (IMHO) otherwise Mod's could spend half their lives moving or deleting posts, otherwise people I'm guessing will just start reducing their posts to absolute thread relevant facts "just in case" - which some of course may say is a good thing, but personally I wouldn't hold to that view.

My point is that perhaps a level of common sense and tolerance is required by the (all) members without them reaching out to Mods via red triangles every time a post on a thread irks them - no ?

All topics are appropriate which do not violate the Posting Guidelines posted on the Board.

SG, I've been posting my "pornographic filth" since 2006.

And since 2006 members have been deciding for themselves whether or not they want to read such "filth." Judging from the number of views over the years compared to the number of complaints about them - I'm not aware of any - members are clearly voting with their fingers accordingly and clicking on the thread to read the posts.

I presume they will continue to make that personal choice.

I would have thought that a liberal-minded person such as yourself would not regard porn as 'filth.'

Nirish, since mods were appointed no member to my knowledge has clicked on the red triangle simply because a post "irks" them. That is not what it is for. If everyone did that, we'd have to cancel our plans for the next six years, not months!

Of course I'm not allowed to say whether I have received any of Moses shitty infartion points for daring to question matters - but NIrish and other people can draw their own conclusions.

a447 I said your posts were pornographic not per se - but in comparison to the very mild joke I made - please try to read what's actually written instead of (or at least before) taking offence

I really thought we had turned a corner with the petty minded management after the Arsepiece left his "job" - it seems not

I guess I could just spend the next 10 mins pressing the red triangle for every off topic post I can find - but I'm not so childish as some people

Every time a Search engine runs through your posts (and they all do, several times a day if not an hour) that's another "view"

And here we go. Scottish Guy and NIrish set off on YET ANOTHER of their childlike tantrums. Close the door on your way out.

No, I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for the clarification.

But a search engine would also run through everyone else's posts, so perhaps I should have said "in comparison to some other threads."

And SG, point taken. You were indeed comparing it to your joke, which btw, I found hilarious.

Sorry.

You don't understand a447. The two of them want a shitfest. Scottish Guy tried to get one going on the Matt thread but it didn't quite materialise, probably because NIrish couldn't get involved. So now the two of them are trying again. It's why they come here. Sadly.

So, in one thread alone Arsenal said the following -

".....always worthwhile goading the pair of you. Get used to it."

"Naughty arsenal, Trolling poor NIrish"

"I'm not acting against the board. Just you"

"I happily admit to trolling both him and you. And clearly, it's working like a dream."

And you have the nerve to accuse other people of wanting shitstorms - pot kettle black there. But at least your behaviour is both obvious and you've given up trying to hide it any longer and people see you for who and what you are........just in case you think otherwise. Now, away back into your troll hole there, you're really not worth the time anymore.

The membership here aren't stupid NIrish. It's clear you two come as a pair and that given the opportunity you'd dominate every thread and attack/bully anyone who disagreed with you. Chippy Celts you both.

So, fellow chippy Celt - given that he has now admitted (more than once) to trolling , I’m happy to report that for the first time ever I have pressed the red triangle!!

Unfortunately I had to view the relevant post to do it.

I’m 100% confident my action will be ignored - but I’ve done it to illustrate the total double standards on this board.

Ignored maybe, but they have to deal with it and maybe even respond. Please keep us informed.

At my school we had a system of de-merits, 'awarded' for any misdemeanor. They were neither badges of honour nor of shame and were considered of little importance. My friend Ian, sadly no longer with us was the first to receive one and we 11 year olds had a little laugh at the whole thing. The system in place here is almost identical and surely no normal grown man would give such a thing the slightest whiff of bother. He would shrug it off and give it nary another thought. Because it's not worth screaming and bitching and smashing the place up about now is it.

Neither of you struck me as characters who would readily get fucked about without protest.

Just goes to show you learn something new every day.

Sorry, SG but you are wrong.

I would protest, but in the manner prescribed by the board; i.e. by PM.

I think that makes me right, not wrong.

How you go about registering your protest is up to you - if you wish to talk to a brick wall you can PM Moses
