Zitat von AnchorJonah - If people are pissed off then I think you need to take note. If Carl is so hacked off he has to leave then you can't ignore it and simply tell everyone to get in line or you'll pull the plug! That's not helping anyone.
I think Carls comment about feeling like you are sat in the away end is very pertinent. I too feel like that. As some one who is not on OA or was ever on Found the clique is very strong and presumptious here and it is a shame. The core of posters is dwindling and new members seem to contribute very very little.
It's a shame as this place has potential as a left field forum for people looking to new labels etc etc and not stuck in a SI/Osti/SPW timewarp.
Dan, just because members join and like stone island/cp and post on other forums doesnt make them a mug...this so called clique of oa members i don't get it! The only reason it is seen as that from you, Dw and Casual zulu is because they have been told to stop jumping on members because they are off oa etc This place has members that frequent other boards its just not right that they get judged simply because they are on oa.........................
i dont judge them its the negative posts off a few on here not just oa !

Well said that man.
I came onto here with no previous experience of other 'Clobber' forums and enjoy it immensely, but (and its a big but) the "away end remark" is a very strong one in my opinion and agree 100%
If new members dont chip in and post, this place will turn into a extension of the other aforementioned forums.

Compared to oa the amount of brands and the discussion that goes into them on here is far more varied. Jesus fck beady eye have just came on my tv. They are awful.
I'm not really sure of all this pressure, I'm never gonna lose any of my old letters, 'Cause they'll stay with me, Until I can see that I'm no one

I agree with this. I'm on both forums and I know it's important that there is a difference.
To me it's pretty simple. People shouldn't say things like "Oh i bought this off blah blah on OA you all know him" because people won't know him.
At the same time when people make an introductory post and mention they are on OA etc they shouldn't be shunned by certain members. We all like our gear and it's diversity that's important. People will be put off by negative comments and will be less likely to join in.

and there is where the problem is, new members are scared to post in case they are shot down for being a member of other forums which is a load of pish. im a member of other forums and im also a member on here if anyone has a problem with this just send me a pm because its getting out of hand all this them and us pishits ruining this place with a certain few being billy big balls as soon as another forum is mentioned and it needs to stop
Never, ever, argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience
so this all started from Karl saying that he bought a jacket from Jamie..an ex found member? wow.. I haven't seen anything else before yesterday that's been degrading towards OA..
Zitat von maclufcso using a photo of you "bezz" as my avatar for a few days is bullying and worthy of a ban? I honestly thought it was funny, and if someone had done it to me I d have pissed myself.
I never said it was bullying?
I said it could be considered as bullying.
Like i said in the other thread, who cares if you dont think it's bullying, some of us think differently just because you dont think it's bullying doesn't mean it isnt.
i wasn`t scared to post and i could be called new still & for the record i haven`t got a problem with other forums well except one but we all know who that is, but i dont want to see this get run down or full off negative comments hence why i`m in the away end at times on my own on here lately, i play fukin miss pm agony aunty i need a cloumn on here at times i swear !

It's not about that. It's about a number of things but comments like "not for me" after you've previously posted "I struggle to like anything outside of SPW" doesn't help.
You don't have to comment on something you don't like even more so when you're not saying anything constructive. It just seems like you're having a pop ("not for me" isn't exactly a pop but you get what I'm saying) for the sake of it.

Likewise, just because you interpreted it as bullying doesn't mean that was maclufc's intention. He said it was done as a laugh so why not accept it as that and give it a rest, Bezz?

Yes, but then its a big cycle; new members which are already on other forums just talk about what they know/are used to and then it all becomes the monotonous.
Im not saying they should not come on and enjoy/share the wealth, but there has to be some kind of happy medium!

What a crock of shit its that exact narrow mindedness that is causing friction on the board all this being looked down on if you wear SI if your on other forums, its total bollox look at the founders of this forum both Ja and Jonah wear SI and as far as im aware still purchase the odd piece along with many other brands does that put them in your timewarp bracket i get the impression that certain members on here believe that this forum was set up for them and them alone either live and let live or create your own forum simple..

No Bezz has a point Hugo. Mac didn't bully him and Bezz didn't take it as bullying but someone, somewhere might have interpreted it as bullying. We have to look into this one admin.

I dont think you quite understand what i'm saying.
I dont think Mac was bullying me i just think he's being a prick with me.
Mac may have said that was not his intention, but that may not have been how it came across.
Only thing which annoyed me about it is he was saying to carl he would have banned him etc.. when he's broken the rules himself.

thats the only thing i can make of it as well. unless ive missed other things.
and liam im not siding with anyone, but cant remember you complaining when people had avatars of yourself over on osti.

Someone did have a picture of me as their avatar on Osti, to which i PM'd them as i did with mac and they were much more co-operative and one r two deleted it.
And as you have seen in many threads on Osti, i have had plenty of arguements about this, and have brought it to the attention of Admin.
You do have to remember Anth i did PM mac, i didn't just out him today.

On a recent meet i was asked to explain the vibe on here, my response was it is like a coffe shop , chilled , informative but still have some banter , at the minute it feels like the local estate boozer , i dont mind the local estate boozer but only on fridays , come on lads sort yaselfs out .

Of course not, everyones entitled to an opinion.
But as a mod, you should be setting an example to new members and helping them out.
Not putting a photoshopped picture of a member of the forum on, whch was obviously made (not by you i dont think?) to take the piss out of me.
