Andy, I wouldnt start jumping to conclusions without knowing all of the situation.

Jon, we all appreciate the job mods do and and accept it can sometimes be a thankless task, but can you explain why this thread was pulled, and the threads about Mono were not ? Is seems to be OK for established forum members to rake a young kid over the coals, but when a grown man is caught acting like a daft kid and gets rightly ridiculed then the thread gets pulled.

 

[brendy]

I think you will find almost all mono bashing threads were removed as were these. It does get a little tedious going over the same thing though.
Todays front page is tomorrows chip wrapper and all that.

Brendy,

Care to fill me in then on what I don't know so I can post more accurately?

This whole thing stinks as is seriously damaging to the credibility of this forum. Fortunately its not the only golf forum.

 

[medwayjon]

Colin,

Threads bashing mono were very regularly removed by mods.

Brendy in particular was very good and dealt with a lot of mono-bashing.

Ha Ha Ha You are at the wind up !!!!

I prefer to read the news via the web now.

For crying out loud Guys - can we move on?

I really don't care if Homer was or wasn't playing when he shouldn't have been. I really don't care if the thread was deleted. I really do care that some seem to want to drag it on for ever. If the Mods think something I've posted is out of order then they'll delete it - will I cry? No - got better things to do.

I really don't care and I'm getting bored with it.

Lets move on - the world isn't going to end because of this but bickering about the episode isn't doing anyone any good.

By the way has anyone thought that maybe Homer updated his handicap after 2 poor rounds from before the op? Not saying this is the case but is it really that important?

There is more to life than this.....

 

[colint]

Probably is time to move on, but it would have been over a lot earlier with a simple admission by Homer. As for the Hcap, he was asked to explain it on several occasions and didn't, despite being willing to offer explanations for the identity theft, so I think your suggestion is unlikely.

 

[madandra]

I dont agree with kicking a man when he is down and HJS is flat on his erse after this debacle. I wouldnt have pulled it and I am sure it was pulled with the best intentions.

I know that people dont like the fact that there are Mods on the forum but we only act with the best intentions. There comes a point when a topic becomes uncomfortable although not insulting and on this occassion I think it was an act of mercy by Jon.

 

[Basher]

Bloody hell, wish I hadn't played this afternoon! Looks like I missed a right bunfight!

I take it Homer's been a bit of a naughty boy then. I take it he posted about recovering from his op while all the time playing normally?

He got many well wishing posts from obviously concerned members, myself included. A shame if he was telling porkies all the time! Oh dear!
I notice Homer has had nothng to say about it all on this thread.

 

[Up_Point_1]

Utter utter Dogshow.

It's clearly a case of one rule for one and one rule for another.

Homer you were caught out, simple as. Why you didn't have the balls to admit early on that you'd been leading this entire forum on merry dance I really don't know.

Ok, one more time, Homer does not run this forum.
Everyones posts are equally open to being moderated or suspended.
The negative mono posts were removed, the negative homer posts were removed and yet you still insist on harping on like old women. The sad thing is that once this all kicked off and I read it on my pda, I expected these replies.

 

[MizunoMan]

From reading all these HJS bashing threads (but without knowing what's going on) i get the impression that he was caught stealing pensions from the old folks home.

Anything less than this then fecking get a life!!

Its getting boring.

 

[Up_Point_1]

Homer does not run this forum.

Excellent news, have you shared this nugget of information with Homer himself

you still insist on harping on like old women

Mr Brendy I take great offence at this statement and would like this thread pulled from the forum. I am a 73 year old female golfer with a 36 handicap from Braintree Essex and find your comments derogatory to women.

Thems some grand keyboard skills up point 1, my stereotype stands though.

You are in Bristol and fancy Carol Vorderman, caught out big boy

 

[Up_Point_1]

Oh shuks, my fib telling skills are as good as Homers

 

[brendy]

BTW noone would actually admit to being a braintreetonian!

[Timberbonce]

I (like many other forum members it seems) missed the original thread, but i have read through all the posts on this thread.
I can see why some people a bit upset about missing out on reading it but i'm not surprised that it got deleted, i would have deleted it myself.

This whole thing reminds me of school yard bullying.

It embarressing i thought we were all like minded grown ups?

Does any one really deserve to come on here and face public ridicule? or worse be forced away?

I'm quite disapointed by the hole thing.
