You got to love that place, I've been there years with relatively no bother, then they bring in an ANONYMOUS rep system which is fully open to abuse and harrassing of other members, I talk out about it and my posts get deleted so naturally I get a little wired, then the admin removes another of my posts, I reply to her in a reasoned manner - note she's deleting with no response whatsoever and is just as rude, then another three admin pile in with 'infractions' at the same time, what they all scouse? you got rivals Paullas.

I think I must be banned now, they bring in a system which just boils down to in your face harrassment and and no way of knowing who is making comments about you, which is just plain pathetic and ridiculous, admin refuses to private message and does a reply in the open forum, then another three admin get on their high horse in a combined attack and deal out warnings. Do you need the hassle I ask you? it's a forum for christ sake. better out off it of I suppose. I cant see that rep system sticking around as anonymous for long, people are going to get fed up of that.

Harrassment and abuse, whether it's from other members of a forum through anonymous means or an admin team riding roughshot, I stand my ground as stupid as that sounds, no one takes advantage of me. I don't sit there and accept being harrassed and abused by people who don't know me, hide behind their computers and don't have the courage of their convinctions to say who they are when digging others out. A4u doesn't need a rep system, it's a perfectly adequate forum as it is, why do people go that extra step to spoil what is already a decent offering.

That was one hell of a bad move though, what goods a rep system if it's anonymous. Oh well, all good things come to an end, I've never known harrassment like it and it came in spades and I used to go all away days with Millwall and suffer at the hands of the police and that don't compare. Outrageous. Still no one is interested and I lost my 'cool' nevermind.

Ah well, at least I didn't get personal.

I'm shocked, I've never known harrassment like it and the odd thing is none of them saw it as harassment, people leaving comments anonymously, posts deletd by admin and then all admin rounding on me - no wonder I lost it, is that not harrassment, ah well, nevermind, harrassed and forced out, I hope Matthew Wood is pleased with himself, him and his mates, a member claims harrassment due to a system installed by himself, and he gets hounded and harrassed further.

I'm going on holiday, it sickens me. It's unbelievable.

Speaking as an Admin, I always try to hear people out when they have troubles with either the site or another member. It seems a bit weird that they wouldn't at least take the time to hear your point of view..

It's all a bit cliquey, it seems the fusspot female admin on her high horse that I told to stick to mothering her own children rather than trying it with adults, could be married to another admin, who in turn is naturally mates with the others, I wish I'd been rude now.

Matthew Wood is blinded by new features rather than realising he cocked up and the system was anonymous instead of showing usernames which is how this all started, I'm not having people leaving comments about me in my face without any redress, it's pathetic and irresponsible, that Julieh is a bit soft as well, apparantly the word Pathetic is aggressive.

Anyway, once I'd spoken out about the anonymous rep system being pathetic and was causing me to be harrassed the admin decided to harrass me further by deleting my posts, not responding to private messages, digging me out publicly on the forum, and once I responded, three other admin piled in at which point, I lost it and called Supercod all the names under the sun and that rather than pile in on three that he could pass the message on to the other admin who'd just given me warnings at the same time because their mate got told she was up her own arse, harrassment from start to finish.

Cheers
