    Now there you are - two genuine voices.

    No biais, nothing against one man, just personal history and love of the Broads. These are not the usual suspects - this is the genuine groundswell of public opinion.

    Have to be a bit careful of that in speaker's corner. You might get warned for it.

    Warnings have been issued, but not for the reason above, the warnings were issued because of the tone of the discussion had degenerated to a point that was unacceptable. 

    as a reminder, there are additional strictures in speakers corner.

    General Guidance For Posting

    Keep it civil.

    Keep it factual.
    Support your argument.
    If you refer to a document make sure you list that document in the 'library thread' and link to that entry in your post so that everyone has access to the full document.

    Keep it relevant
    Do not stray from the topic discussed.
    Avoid titling a thread for the sake of drama.

    Keep it constructive

    it was felt that some of these were being ignored so action was taken and warnings issued.

    we dont want to stop debate, but we do insist that it is within the guidance above.

  2. The moderation team would like to remind people that any youtube videos posted should conform to the terms of service for the forum, particularly the no naming and shaming clause or details of what a crew are doing wrongly.

    We would also like to remind users that although we all love to see drone footage of the broads, that this should comply with the drone regulations and the guidelines given by the Broads Authority and others, links to which can be found here - 

    https://forum.norfolkbroadsnetwork.com/handy-information/drones-and-their-usage/

    Videos posted that are deemed to have contravened any of the above may be removed without warning as although they are embedded from an outside source the forum is still liable for their content should it contravene any of the myriad regulations that govern this source.

    When recommending a channel it is better to post a link to that channels home page, rather than to a single video, as that simplifies the user options to follow that channel.

    many thanks

  4. The threads have been moved to the members area while the moderator team and committee investigate the potential implications of some of the comments for the forum, it was thought better to move them than just lock them, once a decision has been arrived at we will announce it. meanwhile we ask for your continued patience while we discuss the matter.

  5. We the mods of NBN are,

    Reading all your posts from afar,

    Jokes and opinions,

    (BA posts, the sticky 'uns)

    Smoothing the things that jar.

     

    Ooohh watch that post, the naughty one,

     Just too far that joke has gone.

    Shall we hide it? Let it ride?  It's 

    Bound to cause a lot of fun.

     

    Christmas comes but once a year,

    it's the season for good cheer,

    Post of boats and cheery notes

    Of quarrels we'll steer well clear.

     

    Ooohh watch that post, the naughty one,

    The Forum's in a holiday mood,

    Lots of gifts and plenty of food.

    Friends we recall, God bless us all

    Mods wish you a great New Year.

    I am breaking my self imposed rule and making a post. Bern, who it seems to me, has been a long standing respected member and supporter in many ways, makes a statement and no-one who was involved tonight expresses any interest. 

    There was no expression of support on this forum, because if you were not there you didn't see it.

    Bern was asked to stay in the chatroom by us all

  7. For the meet to go ahead, an organiser has to be someone from the staff, for the liability insurance to be in force, as the organiser has had to take a step back, to look after a sick relative. No suitable member was available to take over, at such short notice. So we had to make the call, that it was no longer an official meet.
