Guest therabbitt Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 that would be fair enough if noone agreed with me.I added a wee poll to see what everyone thinks bud. I could only see a couple of people in here agreeing with you that they weren't happy with what we do.There is a chance of course that a vote may be skewed by our lurking enemies, but it's worth a go.

Senna 735 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Neither.I am more or less happy with it, but more restraint should be shown with timing - specifically 'Commons has signed' comes to mind, and anything to do with the takeover or speculation should be labeled so.

I'll freely admit that, no qualms.Not that it matters, but when I released that story, the papers (who already had headlines penned) and also the club believed it was all but done. I can't prove that either way, so I'll happily take the flack for getting it wrong. I'm only guilty of publishing/sharing something I heard from several independent sources that I wholeheartedly trust.Other than that though, I can't think of many other occasions when I wished Id done anything differently.

Plamf 39 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 but what about fantasy and conjecture?I think such articles should appear more as blogs or an 'editorial view'. I know what you mean. We get enough ill found articles in the tabloids. Articles from here will appear in newsnow and sensationalist stories are infuriating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Since this thread has attracted the more coherent on the board...Censorship is wrong, said an earlier poster and it's hard to argue with that. But I think there is going to have to be a point, and very soon the way legal things are going, where RM has to remove posts which go against the somewhat pointless 'rules' sticky. It looks like it will be that or prosecution under whatever law is introduced or exists atm.And since the bad mannered and ignorant posts on here reflect dreadfully on Rangers and RM, I'd be happy to see that. This board is a chance - an amazing chance - to provide an alternative from the drivel media we have to endure, but we can't expect it to be taken seriously unless there are rules of good manners which are enforced. Censorship or not, I think it has to happen. Otherwise any good work is drowned under a sea of what is charmingly described as 'inbred knuggledragging'.Everything you wrote there goes against the whole concept of Rangers media.

Guest Andypendek Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Everything you wrote there goes against the whole concept of Rangers media.<shrug>Fair enough.

Jimfanciesthedude 24,778 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I don't believe that.unless the article is claiming it as fact, then it is just someones opinion, therefore whats to complain aboutas ive said i have argued like fuck about many MANY articles, posts, blogs etc, but thats whats happens when people post as their opinion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
