Understand what you are saying Rich - rock / hard place... etc...
Whichever way, I hope you can get Greekstein back on board, as he contributes more than most other posters.

I'm looking forward to the weekend BTW. See you Saturday.


As I said over many hours yesterday on MSN with Cos, and less so with Ben but still said it very genuinely, I and the mods like both of them, and enjoy them on the forum.

 We would love them to come back after the short ban. That does not mean we could just ignore what we are charged with doing just because they are popular, high profile, controversial, loud,etc etc.

We knew there would be fall out, and time to tell what the impact will be but I can say most certainly that the decisions were made with the best intentions towards the forum, and as the initial post on the "Moderation on blonde Poker" thread said the recent trends on the forum are way removed from what blonde Poker is about.

I agree with jakally and belly on the bmt a/c. it's horrible, so them and us

maybe it'll work for some bannings and in confrontational situations but not in threads where a reasonable discussion is taking place, it's like putting up a barrier

on the other thread (I think) it was just used to post pretty much exactly what dan had already posted in his own name. that's utterly pointless

Most of what Dan posts is utterly pointless to be fair.

He does, and I definitely appreciate his contribution to the forum.  I think all the mods do, but they'd have to speak for themselves.

Just post on the BMT account. That way they can all speak for themselves via you.

Would have worked a lot better if you'd used the quote function correctly...

I think the moderating team account is a great idea but only when something has been discussd between mods and agreed on.



They need a scary avatar though.  They should also expand their activities beyond the forum and ban ppl that haven't even joined blonde where appropriate e.gs. politicians bankers etc

Is this for real? This is a free forum and you can post on it when you want if you abide by a few fair enough rules. If you get banned you get banned. Carry on posting after that ban if you want to and carry on enjoying the foum. If you don't want to post again don't post again. I don't get people "threatening" not to post again...because inevitably they post again. Use the forum if you want, don't use it if you don't want, it's up to you, but threatening not to use it is lol. Some of you guys need to get a grip and quit with the political agenda on a poker forum.

I meant for his humour and good-natured banter of course.   At the table, he's a demon and I live in awe.

I'm glad the mods listened to me and lengthed Cos's ban. weeeee

In all seriousness I don't know what was said exactly but if Cos doesn't post anymore it'll be a massive loss to the community.

And if Rook's doesn't post again... well I like him anyway
