Having the ability to do certain things on here is a privilege. You have used the emojis without engaging in debate. Doing that to moderators is especially not a good idea.

You are not singled out as other posters aren’t able to do other things on Pasoti.

I cannot believe what you have replied. “ Doing that to moderators is especially not a good idea” You are volunteers with I guess no qualifications to become a moderator but are presumably just mates with the owner of the site. The power has gone to your heads. That statement sums up your inflated view of your position.
The sooner some of you get off your ego trips and start treating fellow supporters in a proper manner the better. Without posters you would not have a forum so how is it a privilege?

If you use the emojis as part of a discussion, there won’t be a problem.

Thank you. You seem to be one of the more moderate moderators. If only some of your colleagues were of a similar mind the forum would be much better for it. I am not looking for trouble but am not afraid to speak out if I feel it is justified.At the end of the day it is all seems very childish and petty to be “ put on the naughty step “for using emojis.

Yes, you couldn't imagine how much of a boost to my ego being a moderator on a football forum is Oldie. I walk around with a big group of people that tell everyone they see that it's me from Pasoti.

You don't treat anyone with respect at all, you argued with argyle official to the point they no longer post on here and give insight to our members which is a huge loss to Pasoti. You have an issue with moderators having an opinion on Argyle and constantly trying to wind the people up that keep the site running as you say as volunteers is a silly thing to do.

No one has put you on the naughty step, you have access to everything other than reactions on other peoples posts. Something that has been available for about 2 years of the 30 years the site has run.

Pointless then not being able to react.

You are able to discuss things like everyone else.

When have I disrespected anybody? I took Argyle Official to task because in my opinion, an opinion shared by some others I have spoken to, he was only playing lip service to some issues raised. I respond to moderators who have an opinion which they think others should agree with. Could I respectfully ask that the moderators look at their shortcomings before having a go at fans with differing views?

"Naughty Step" now there's an idea.

Ross, you've overstepped the mark there.

Take some time off and think about the effect your words would have on Oldage.

Seriously? Have a word with yourself. Where in Pasoti law does it dictate emojis may not be used alone without text.

Your defending the indefensible, this is utter nonsense.

I’m just saying it as it is. Anyway, I was explaining to Oldage what the issue was, not really any of your business.

I must say I get very miffed when people ‘thumbs down’ without commenting after. If you have a challenge, just say so.

My new policy is to search that person’s posts and ‘thumbs down’ their most recent one. Childish, but somehow cathartic.

That’s exactly what Oldage was doing to several posts without commenting. I’m not a fan of the negative ones if I’m honest, but if you’re going to use them at least say why.

If you want to dictate and make the rules up in private then do so, don't complain when others find fault in them when you do it in a public forum.
