Dunny_01 2,007 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 RST and FF are not the same thing at all although there are many on FF (and on here I think) who are in the RST I also think that Mark Dingwall CAN distinguish between timposters and genuine bears who have a different viewpoint. Claims that life bans for an "infraction of the rules" (ie you're a tim) are a convenient smokescreen to remove anyone whos views are not liked.i know the RST and FF are not the same thing but the RST use FF to push there agendas and why not its his site.i have praised MD alot on here for the way he presents himself in media hes excellent, I cannot take ur comments on the BANNING issue and he can spot a tim etc.... As i got banned for nuthin, and nearly everyone of my mates have had bans imposed and all saidsame thing, they cannot determine bears fae tims. simple as! in my opinion RM is completely night andday from FF.i just think the fan ownership model idea whilst a dream, is never been so far away with the Rangers supporters trust that noine trusts!!! hence its driving big wedges thru the network of online rangers supporters!!

RFC Eagle 4,888 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Is there a support as divided as us?You'll find division in almost all supports. Even down in the reaches of the non-league there are divisions at clubs with gates of 300, so it's only to be expected. There is always room for differences of opinion, our support comes from many backgrounds, but there are some sections recently who appear to have a divisive agenda. Certainly the influx of threads from certain posters in the last few weeks have created that impression. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StornowayBlue 630 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I take you comment on board bud, but alas they do appear when he speaks or the rst make a statement, so I was just drawing attention that they will be out in force. Sorry ED, I couldn't see the forest for the trees. Now you mention it I did have a small spat with a new poster a few weeks back. I cant mind the subject but it was definately a new member on here. I think the retort to my questioning them was that they had been members on another forum previously. It never dawned on me but it does seem exactly as you suggest. Why else would members from another forum join RM, other than to try and change opinion. Perhaps you are right but they have the same rights to free speech as we do so I guess we just need to be aware. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly the influx of threads from certain posters in the last few weeks have created that impression.I don't think the division's are as pertinent as they appear to be with us. Of course you can get far too wrapped up in forums and a lot of nonsense but honestly, it's depressing. And that's not to blame either side. People are entitled to their own opinions, it's just bizarre how different they are from either side. Might aswell be two different clubs right now frankly.While I think the OP is a little bit problematic in that some get persecuted for simply believing a different thing to others on here, you're kidding yourself on if you cannot see there are some folk on here with no intention but to stir up trouble. You can say that everyone is entitle dot their opinion and that's fair enough. But when it's the same folk dragging every thread into the same pish and quite clearly goading others into fights, it's crap and ruins it for those who genuinely want to debate.I'd say that there are a few who shouldn't be on here for this reason, I'm sure they won't be on for too much longer. Still, we should be vigilant and not just accuse everyone who has an opinion that is maybe more in-line with that of FF, only those who are visibly taking the piss Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then admin think its funny by barring you! Follow follow when it started was a great vehicle for the fans . But it has clearly lost its way due to its admin.

Skelf 1,153 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 So what if some on RM also post on FF or any other site for that matter. My experience of FF is much the same as RM, different viewpoints being spouted and some ubers who think anyone who disagrees with them is a tim. Good and bad on all sites.I got banned from the fat mans swamp for posting that I didn't think ally was up to the job, also posted about John brown keeping appearance money. 2nd ban. Yes they allow viewpoints. Tell you what. Go to front page of VB and post an article on ££ that defends Rangers and see how long it lasts?

Brock 42 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I'm afraid it's anything but far-fetched. I was a long-term poster and if I listed some of the reasons for my repeated bans, you'd think I was making it up.Here are some examples off the top of my head:An argument was raging about McCoist's ability as assistant manager. Some uber decreed McCoist deserved fans' respect "as a man". I asked if a convicted drink-driver and serial adulterer was really worthy of respect on a personal level. Banned for "disgusting Timmy-like abuse of a Rangers legend".Some of you may remember "the Jig stats" in 2010/11 where the team's results suffered alarmingly every time Lee McCulloch played in midfield. The debate centred on why there appeared to be a correlation between Lee's presence in the squad and bad results. To lighten the debate, I asked if maybe McCulloch was stealing the young players' dinner money! Banned for "abuse of a Rangers player".The day Gary Speed killed himself, the internet was crawling with rumours to effect that he'd killed himself to prevent being outed as gay. I posted that I didn't believe these rumours and asked whether it was a know story which, in my ignorance, I'd missed. Banned and told to "show some respect".I was finally banned sine die under this username for questioning Admin's abilities and under a previous username for questioning why a particularly hot-headed FF favourite was allowed to stay on the site after using FF to challenge several posters, including me, to a "square go". He remains on the site to this day and was one of the fans holding aloft the "Yanks No Thanks" banner.Take any of these in isolation; would any RM poster be banned for any of the above? Not in a hundred years. Take them all together and you see a clear pattern of absurdly OTT censorship; the polar opposite of what a fans' forum should be.It's a site run by a very touchy guy with over-willing Admin helpers who display control freak tendencies. Best avoided.Maybe you should read the thread about zero tolerance of abuse of Rangers players and fellow posters.The posters like you on this messageboard are oozing with jeloulsy and its pathetic.
