Where are they now?

JustOne, Monty Brown, Gibbo to name a few.

James has posted a few times this month and this year, he may not be as active as he was, but he's not far away and was at Cooden a few weeks back.

He's relocated also from the south to North wales.
 
i wonder if any one person is responsible for people getting black balled. i know one person who was black balled and who he was bickering with at the time. he was pushed to the edge and lashed out 😁
 
work is mental! I'm only playing Saturdays at the moment ! I know life is over ;)
golf is OK though, I managed to creep down to 7, won nothing just x4 .2 reductions in a row. Big test tomorrow though :o

Glad to see your still around, was fun pairing up in the good old days.

Viscount17 from my early days and the meet at Grimsby Golf Club.

I played so badly that day but everyone made it OK with nice comments.

Pushed to the edge ?? It's a golf forum, not 'die hard 5. Die harder (again)!'

How can someone you don't know wind you up so much?
 
or don't get the chance to...:rofl:

I think those that have returned under a new guise are showing some excellent restraint :thup:

I don't miss Ethan, I see he's now just a curtain twitcher :smirk:

TimGolfy knobbing it off the 1st at Beau Desert will go down in GM history..:whoo:

Behave or you will be getting a Tashyboy infraction:thup:
 
Nice to hear you at least have a community here.

(New member by the way).

*Waves.

There is but I think it's a bit unfair to blackball someone for good.

How can we find out how people are getting on and ask them back on if they have been blackballed 😔

I think in fairness Sean there are some people that the forum is better off without. Bit harsh but one or two individuals over the years have gone out of their way to be offensive or odious to others. Good riddance to them I say, I know dummies get spat out from time to time but generally this place works well because most people make an effort to get along and get involved.

True but we don't know what people have gone through or are going through and there are people on here that do have a knack of bringing out the worst in people.

Surely a long cooling off is adequate and then invite them back. If they tell you to do one then fair enough.

Anyway I was hoping this thread would not turn out to be a another place to bitch and moan, rather a 'Surprise Surprise" of golf monthly yesteryear.

So where is craphacker? what's he up to? can someone get a message from him if we can't bury the hatchet and let people back on.

Can we put this blackballing thing to bed please

99.9 % of members do not ever come close to getting an infraction, for those that transgress, they are first warned and if they continue then the infractions start, you need a minimum of 2 infractions within a short period of time to get a 7 day ban or blackball.

Those who have been permanently blackballed have had multiple warnings, multiple infractions and multiple bans already, when the Mods have had enough, they ask Mike if he wants to ban them permanently.

In the 5 years that I have been a mod, I can only think of about 8 or 9 individuals who have been the subject of a lifetime ban.

So bottom line is that if they have got one, they very much deserve it and they arent coming back.

Now move along please, nothing to see here :thup:

think am one of the 0.1% that has come close. 🙄Feel like one of those planks that brags behind the bus station having a spliff that he has a tag on.

That aside, folk do move on. For whatever reason.
 
How about that thread when we were all laying into Horton Park in Surrey for having the worst par-3 in golf history and some guy just happened to turn up and post once claiming it was brilliant and the best hole he had ever played?

Definitely couldn't have been the GM of the club could it .... ;)
