BigDave

Sorry Jonzo I won't comment in a derogatory manner regarding it again after this post Paladine, ask and ye shall seek the truth, at least they were correct that the post was made tounge in cheek and nothing else more sinister or malicious than a harmless bit of fun. The rest hmmmm. (And it wasn't me before I get accused!!) BigDave out

The establishment has silenced another non conformer

I take the point Dave over and out

Suspicion and mistrust, yes! I would never trust anyone who runs crying to Trading standards over nothing. These type of people can damage a business very quickly with a dangerous lack of intolerance and disregard to others

Correct but if that information is passed around what else is passed around? Not a threat, personally I couldn't care less as I am not a registered user on the NBF I asked for my account to be deleted over a year ago. I'm glad I did! And your kind of missing the point. Why would anything regarding another poster that is not visible need to be passed around?

Possibly Matt, who knows but why delete it if TOS were not violated and Mods are not 100% it was a wind up, nobody posted to state it was in jest. Mods should not bring their personal narrow minded attitudes into play when editing or deleting posts. They should follow the TOS only. It Is quickly becoming a joke on there and other on other social media sites are starting to voice this Stowager, if you are not a mod why would you be privy to other posters IP addresses? Unless personal information is been past around regarding other posters within the clique? I would be alarmed if Mods were passing my information to other posters without my permission. Could someone threaten a lawsuit for disclosure of personal information on that!!

Interesting. I think Richard really needs to start to reign these people in before they ruin his forum. Just reading various broads related websites/forums and it does seem that the NBF is starting to gain a reputation within the broads community as a very intolerable place to be. The NBF Has been slated regarding this on here, the NBO and someone has had a go regarding the forum on Richardsons Facebook page. I was reading the NBF last night there was a thread running about someone wanting to arrange a stag do on the broads some of the things they were asking were a little bit rowdy like playing music and giving the. Boat some throttle but were perfectly valid questions for a youngster new to the broads. And unaware of the rules and a couple of the good posters had answered the questions with answers a little info and a point in the right direction to which the chap seemed very grateful That thread now has vanished! It didn't violate any TOS. Censorship at its best from the establishment. That's what happens when you have mods with inflated self importance and a very narrow minded attitude to others lifestyles and social backgrounds

Shows the difference in attitudes a steady well mannered thread about the topic on this forum where as the NBF are into 2 threads totalling 14 pages now. some people need to realise the world doesn't revolve around them, it seems that those people seem to reside on one forum. I mean reporting to trading standards, give your head a shake!

Expect the FBI / MI5 / Men In Black smashing you front door in Clive. The law that is the NBF members are in full swing. I think so far you have been reported to Trading Standards, Broads Authority & God. I think they've retired from court now to discuss a public hanging on Stalham High Street. Naughty step for you! P.S. Great marketing idea, keep up the good work!

Dajen, my opinion, your entitled to yours. I made a 5p donation today. Just thought I'd let everyone know how generous I am. Go me!

thats kind of the NBF mentality in a nutshell if you disagree with someones point of view, throw an insult

and I thought we were having a debate without decending into personal insults.

Kfurbank, no abuse just an opinion. People on this thread have disagreed with me, I haven't shot them down telling them there wrong. We all have different opinions, thats just life

I agree Dan that every forum has it's good an bad points but i've never been on a forum like that one with large egos and the underlying arrogance of a few posters (generally the ones on it 24/7)it doesnt make it a nice place at times. sure every forum gets them but the mods quickly knock it on the head, unfortunately the mods are part of that group on there

Fair point Dan, just trying to put across that I feel that way about the NBF and not just someone hiding behind a keyboard slagging it off for no good reason. Not everyone will share my views but just putting my view across. therealist, I'm sure we'll end up with the NBF feds smashing our front door down at some point
