Censorship of posts criticizing Cameron Schwab

[Range Rover 1,935]

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.

Apparently the method de jour is to start a FB page rpfc

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.

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.
