Banned Player

[Voyager EMH]

Some of us, me included, I apologise, stepped over the line of friendly banter to what can be potentially genuinely upsetting.
We have to trust the mods judgement on this.
It is what they are here for.

I suppose spoilsport is one of the nicer things you have been called.

Re the OP, I would love to know the thought process regards allowing the thug back on the course. Bearing in mind he was banned for threatening behaviour. Was the other player or player at the open. How do they feel. Serious questions need to be asked. A company golf club has a duty of care for its members.It has not taken that into consideration. Me I would ban him for life and let every club in a 20 mile radius know this as well. I would also contact the county secretary.

You mods are obsessed with banding people

The tool kit has arrived

Sometimes a def leppard can change their spots, unfortunately in this case it seems they haven’t.

I’m agreeing on a lifetime ban, I also make them discuss Brexit with fraggle as punishment.

I thought you were now on the back benches. Unable to relinquish power?

Spell check is available for people who have a legitimate challenge with spelling.

I don't believe anyone has insulted the OP, the mickey taking has been fairly light hearted.

I'm assuming the original post was spelled "band", in which case, a spell checker wouldn't help.

On topic, I am in the same camp of "why was this banned player allowed to play?"

I'd ban him for life on the back of a second offence. I mean, he's not shown he can be trusted.

Honestly, I would have gone for the life ban on the first offence. There is no room for that sort of behaviour anywhere.

A spell checker won't pick up that "banned" has been spelt as "band".

18 month ban should have been upheld - now I would say lifetime ban ( which includes membership, playing as guest or in Opens) - physical violence is unacceptable. He had the opportunity to show he could behave and blew it - who knows his it could escalate next time. Pretty sure this should be covered in your club’s Code of Conduct.

Come on folks, please. There may be a very good reason for the spelling in the OP which renders the subsequent mickey taking a little distasteful.

The subject matter is clear - try and stay on topic please.

Thank you very much it was just a spelling mistake ..and there I was thinking people on this site where genuine.My Miss Take hows that wee Willie....

Since we're now back on track of the topic. I can see from your previous post that you are the captain of the club. Am I right in assuming that you were aware of this persons ban and also maybe had been part in both the initial decision to ban him and subsequently let him play in your open? If so, what was the rationale behind the latter?

Sounds like someone has anger management issues and golf is just the outlet. He probably needs a councilor, but until then a permanent ban.
