Censorship of posts criticizing Cameron Schwab

I'd like to ask the administrators and moderators of the site why posts questioning the performance of Cameron Schwab are being routinely deleted from threads, particularly the 'New Sponsors' thread?

Is this a democratic forum where one can freely and respectfully opine, or a mouthpiece where only certain views are allowed?

Sad if the latter, as appears to be the case.

 

He should resign immediately

I think some questions need to be answered, so I hope there is no over zealous censorship.
 

I'd be surprised and disappointed if this were the case. He deserves scrutiny.

Democratic forum?

We may pay money to remove the ads, RR, but Andy is the one who is held responsible for our BS.


Schwab deserves scrutiny, doesn't mean the owners of this site have to allow it here.

Get a blog.

Held responsible? By whom and for what?

I can understand deleting trash talk or anything legally sensitive, but posts assessing the performance of those who run OUR club? How sensitive do you want to get?

I'm too lazy to blog.
 

Can't imagine you will get a response to this .... I've asked for tapatalk registration of his forum and got donuts.

Well then they are ruining the idea of a forum made for football club supporters wanting to share their views. Aren't they RP?


It seems a bit odd to me that we would go hell for leather after under-performing players but would be so precious and concerned about unfair or ill-considered comments regarding the management. Surely if we're demanding that the players toughen up, we would expect the execs to set a good example??

Nobody owns it- like our club. All opinions on here should be delivered with some sort of respect .Or at least humour .Unless you are responding to a moderator.(joke sweeties). Schwab seems to be doing really well though .Look where we were for proof.

Why should we give over our IP to this tapatalk guy-screw him .

Didn't read this and didn't know it was true-do not agree with deleting anything really-it's a slippery slope .

Range Rover,

I have not read nor deleted your posts criticising Cam Schwab but the one of the owners/administrators/ other moderators have viewed your posts and deemed them unacceptable. While we live in a democracy, such freedom comes with certain rules and obligations.

If you are going to criticise a player/ MFC official you want to make sure its firstly constructive and secondly does not breach the Code of Conduct.

FWIW, posters that do not comply with this put the site owners at risk of legal action for slander. In addition the site owners have also stressed these standards and its their site.

From time to time, the owners and appointed assistants have deleted threads that have breach these standards. In the worst cases, offending posters have either been warned, suspended and then banned. There have been past instances where the deleted comments made have either embarassed the site owners or put them at risk of potential litigation. I am not inferring your posts were at that standard. However you need to understand the owners intent.

If in future you have further concerns I suggest you use the Report button located in the bottom right hand corner.

Otherwise I suggest you get over your laziness and get a blog. I would also recommend you stop using the forums to rail against censorship. Once again this has been the subject of specific owner request.

Matter closed. Thread is locked.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
