    Hibs Social Media team

    Another Instagram post and tweet they have put up that’s needed to have been taken back down due to idiots in the comment section.
    This time a harmless post congratulating Paul McGinn and his partner on their marriage

    They are going about this in the wrong way. Should just block these morons.

    Agree.

    If it’s just the same accounts that are hounding them all the time, get them blocked

    I'm far from happy with Hibs just now but you must be pretty pathetic to be posting abuse on a post congratulating a player on his marriage.

    100% should just block them, and if they’re repeat offenders tell them they’re not welcome back at Easter Rd.

    I'd be surprised if the social media team had any authority as regards the latter.

    Wouldn’t be hard to flag the accounts to those that do, though.


    FWIW, i’m not talking about low level stuff, but for folk who repeatedly go over the score then the club should consider blocking them from all aspects of the club, having been persuaded that this is a good idea by Colin on last week’s Longbangers

    What could anyone possibly be upset about in a post congratulating a player on getting married?

    I don't think our socials are up too much so I tend to just ignore them rather than hurling abuse at them.

    You can see why Ron said he found the "supporters" disappointing.

    Given we have too many of our own fans who can’t be trusted with social media along with the inevitable Jambo/Hun bores who jump on a lot of the posts, they really should not be permitting comments (if you can actually do that)

    Didn’t he say “fickle”?
    Hard not to agree with that.

    Folks out doing each other in poisoning the well and getting things drowned out. Just makes the whole thing increasingly irrelevant. What exactly is the point of turning your platform into a toxic cesspit? There’s money to be made through this. Utter BS. I imagine if they wanted to they could through machine learning / AI cut a whole load out. But choose not to.

    Could be wrong but I don’t recall that being the direct quote?

    Engagement with posts by users on a site by liking/commenting is a valuable metric to platforms when looking for advertisers to host ads on your site.

    Becoming?

    Every time you say something you get told "every clubs fans are the same" so I've looked at a few other clubs social media platforms recently and none of them are as bad as ours.

    It is however the same (maybe 20-30?) fans you keep noticing and they generally have the cheek to have their profiles full of Hibs stuff as if they're total fanatics.

    It gives an absolutely terrible impression of the club and makes it unbearable to read for anyone with half an ounce of decency.

    Just copy all the comments and put up a new story - name and shame them all. Then tell them to **** off and support Hearts.

    I find it's the opposite, usually an age range you'd expect/hope to act better.

    Always seems an age group crying out for a bit of an online profile and follower numbers. Painful 'look at me' behaviour, desperately looking to be edgy, which for some reason lends itself to utterly pointless abuse.

    Twitter/Facebook/Instagram is full of keyboard warriors who hide behind avatars to discreetly send abuse. Would never say those type of things in person. They are best ignored/blocked as they are pathetic individuals with little in the way of a productive life.

    Instagram is the only one i'm still on. Decided Twitter and Facebook just weren't adding anything positive to my life. Quite the opposite. Full of braindead idiots. Sadly a lot of them Hibs fans.
