Perhaps time to get rid of news/politics. If I was Guntri / Penge, I don't presume to know their thoughts, but, I would'nt be arsed with the effort.

Ok, I have to react to the victim point

If someone serially flouts the rules they should get pulled up on it. Those that become personal, are argumentative and refuse to give anyone space to post for fear of what I have called - and believe this to be the correct word - hectoring. It is wearisome and destructive.

This has gone on too long and has really changed the HOL. Which is a real bummer for us addicts. If someone feels victimised they should be able to say it. Otherwise there is a real danger a bullying culture sets in.

But in any case those you accuse of being victims are not. They argue their corner. Don’t blame them for pointing out the modus operandi.

Finally I don’t understand how multiple people can - with apparent impunity - tell others to stop using this site and move to the competition. Surely that is very bad business.

Oh and by the way, stop calling people snowflakes. That surely must breach the rules and makes me feel like I am reading the Daily Mail.

I have been on this site four years longer than you. I have to state that in all that time you have to be one of the biggest victim card players I've debated with.

Along with this embrace of victim status you display a self righteous like arrogance. Who gives a monkey's what you think. You aren't in HR now mate. I mean, you stating how the site should be moderated is just jaw dropping.

You don't get to decide how rules are interpreted....and telling people what words they shouldn't use....Blimey! And as for describing 'bullying'.

Let me make this clear....because your pathetic victim card playing is extremely irritating. If there is anyone who uses these forums who thinks they are being 'bullied' then I would suggest they should ask the poster they regard as their 'bully' to stop replying to them and vice versa.....bingo conflict avoided.....Real debate is then left to those with the stomach for it.

Your mate Gusset was asked to stop replying to two different people on here and refused and got away with it. However, it's a principle that I would adhere to and I'm sure anyone with a sense of principle would.

I've already made this position clear in respect of yourself. You wouldn't take up this offer. So keep your victim cards to yourself mate.

This is totally uncalled for and rude.

Mapletree is a measured poster who is Palace through and through. I have never seen or interpreted him playing the victim.

Unfortunately the forum isn't moderated proactively and in the case of "News / Politics" I hate this section with a passion and generally only read it if I have to.

If anyone thinks that the arguments are too personal and people are being bullied please report the post as that notification goes to all the mods.

Oh my god, another victim card. It's a seemingly endless stream of crying from beta males on here. If you can't stand the heat darling go to bbs.....that's full of lefties and you will be right at home. If you choose to stay then suck it up snowflake.

As for your comments against the website.....frankly I think that shows you up.

Jesus Christ would you listen to yourself.
