    Somebody Open a Window

    It stinks worse than Seafield on Boxing Day in here just now. The trolls are fairly wriggling around, and I wonder how long it will be till a firing squad is convened by the admins.

    Why not report the posts and the Admins will then look into it when they can?

    It's a thought, I'd hate to be grassing up a genuinely peeved Hibby by mistake. Some of the things that are being said are legitimate enough, it's just that the same people seem to be at it time and time again. That doesn't make them Yams, or even bad people, but you have to suspect that some of them could be undercover Pinkos.

    Name names

    We look at every one reported.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    Any chance of getting some kind of feedback with reported posts? I'm reported the odd post and never hear anything back which makes the user think nothing is getting done.

    A transfer window preferably. The real offensive stink comes from the stale squad.

    Can we have a report button for those that spout their same pish across numerous threads about the same things.

    The boards becoming stale IMO and any deviation from hibs discussion is usually pounced on and labelled unsuitable despite being football related.

    Does that mean all your posts are flagged?

    Surely the trick is not to have numerous threads about the same things? That way people would only have to spout their pish on one thread.

    We have to keep it simple. If you think someone is a Yam or are deliberately trolling then use the report a post function and let the admins deal with it. Easy.

    I agree but threads with different themes end up turning into a common one such as bash nish or the board.

    Not necessarily yams but those that seem to shout the loudest and things are becoming stale IMO.

    I think we had a thread here before where a fair number of knowledgeable, articulate posters have said they just can't be arsed anymore for the above reason.

    I personally come on to get updates and have a decent discussion about hibs. There's not much pleasure in coming on here and I know that's mostly down to on park performance but it really is getting mundane.

    A vast majority of users on this site come across as trolls.

    Just people looking to starts flame wars instead of sharing opinions and having reasonable debates.

    You can't post something on here without someone telling you that your post is pish and that your a tosser for posting it.

    Pretty depressing.

    This is all a bluff.

    I think Filled Rolls is actually a Yam and is complaining about undercover Yams to cover his own tracks.

    It's just a relatively small number of people going on and on and on about the same thing. We could remove them, but as they're Hibs fans we'll just be accused of denying freedom of speech.

    It's called a no win situation. They're dragging the whole place down but the alternative isn't worth the hassle.

    There's always the ignore function. You can access it through User CP.

    I don't mind the D&G's or the HC's as they are all part of a cross section of supporters offering their opinions. There will always be extremists on both sides - live with it.
    TBH, what irks me the most are the firing squads that shoot down anyone who has an opinion different to theirs. Some of the personal attacks on here in the past have been uncalled for.
    That said, deliberate malicious troublemakers who savage the cabbage should rightly be reported to the admin team who I'm sure will deal with them accordingly.

    Happy New Year y'awl

    It seems that this site over the last couple of years has become poisonous with members only to happy to make issues personal or threaten violence and that includes certain Admins.

    A forum should be about opinions because at the end of the day we all have them- but when the abuse starts because you dare to post your disappointment at how the clubs fortunes are going only to be told you must be a hearts fan or a ****** has become the norm.

    There are very few members on this site that I’ll take time to reply too because with the trouble makers (minority) you know what’s coming when they reply.

    Can't say I've come across threats of violence, but there have been times when people have had their opinions rubbished. That's usually because they haven't made a very good argument to back up what they are saying.
