Wreckedroy 33 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Having read through all 24 pages of this thread, I can confirm that I still know very little about the legal status of the account(s) used to hold the money, or if FSA rules have been followed or broken.Damn good read tho!

Boromir 5 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Many people found and started using RangersMedia because of the Pravda like mindset that had taken hold at Follow Follow. FF had, and probably still has, some excellent posters, but the promotion of certain ideas and the continual 'sniff sniff' accusations that were made to anyone who didn't share them stultified debate. In my opinion that policy directly led to the rise of RangersMedia. A Rangers forum where posters like AndyPendek, Manticore, OlegKuznetzov, Contacts and WVB could state their usually contradictory piece, 'admined' by the much missed and always excellent Rabbit, without anyone thinking they were Tims or somehow being unfaithful to Rangers was very appealing to many posters. Gunslinger is a great poster, ShoreRdBear seemed lucid and making an effort to reply. It would be to RangersMedia's detriment if posters like that were being banned, timed-out, or in some other way being unable to post at a very important time for the club. I'm not a member of the RST and never have been and have particular dog in this fight. PS Having been on the Shore Road many times it's a brave man who'd ban someone from there!

bluepeter 5,627 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I don't think that you did on this occasion, so get over yourself.Your previous post doesn't make much sense to me then, but never mind. Consider me over myself.Yes, you obviously do, but you're not alone in that.Thank God for that, I have abandonment issues.Pretty meaningless, given that he's no longer postingBy his own choice, he's no longer posting. He is free (and welcome) to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NessFTW 40 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 http://forum.rangersmedia.co.uk/index.php?app=forums&module=extras§ion=boardrulesI see. Well it seems that I would have to agree that some rules are being applied a lot more stringently than others.Disappointing RM.Edit: Also just clicked what rule has been broken by both members. It's fair enough I guess but still can't argue with the fact a lot of the forum rules are broken every day and are not acted upon.Should maybe define within the rules which rules we are and aren't allowed to break.

Of course some rules are more strictly adhered to and acted on than others. Similar reasons that a court would give for not punishing a petty thief to life imprisonment.Let's say, for the sake of argument, that a poster broke a reasonably serious rule. They are warned about that by PM, accept that they've broken the rule, apologise and say it won't happen again. A couple of weeks later, they break the same serious rule. Is a 24-hour posting suspension too harsh? Just right? Not harsh enough?Hypothetically speaking, of course. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
