So it's not creepy then, gotcha.

Your implication of some kind of lack of consent, as if Jen doesn't talk to the players quite often or that they are unaware of what she does, is tiresome. Go pearl clutch offline buddy

I'm not referring to players. I'm referring to members of the public, out and about minding their own business unaware they're being photographed and being circulated on the internet. I don't think they consented. Like these two examples:

 

[manicpie]

Vagely insinuating shes favouring guys like Ollie and Lippa because of their looks. Quite belittling for someone that goes above and beyond to provide content and info for our supporters

You haven't seen me, I'm beautiful from every direction you look and built like an Adonis

... are you seriously dying on this hill? This has got to be some of the most cringeworthy faux outrage I've ever seen. You're clearly hell-bent on harassing a fellow poster, and you're surprised people might call it out?

Thankyou. When I see or hear the world ‘pearl’ I think of something very different. Was having trouble trying to relate it to the conversation.

It’s a lot clearer now.

you're welcome. i often get confused trying to communicate with the youth of today. If it wasnt for google I wouldn't be able to stop the burger kids from putting mayo on my burgers.

Yes, I too had to google to learn the phrase "No mayonnaise, please."

 

[Markfs]

It’s a good question, as someone who doesn’t know Geelong’s list in complete detail I reckon that one would be aged dependant.

The older more experienced followers I reckon would be team tomahawk. Something about the smile.

The younger new brigade probably prefer the blonde locks of an SDK. Could Henry take that rank? Possibly

whenever i hear tom speak, I think he sounds like he's been created by a marketing company.

 

[Markfs]

was that before or after "no lube please"

 

[sr36]

Was it metaphorical when you wrote about boys putting mayo on your burgers?

 

[Mollythedolly]

Leave off ffs. Pragmatic Shill made a reasonable point and has conducted himself well throughout the conversation. We get it, you disagree.

my mind works on so many levels, i rarely understand it

I'm alright, thanks for the unsolicited advice though

Frankly, all I've asked for is clarification on what specifically is the problem about me criticising Jen's opinion on something, as if her opinion is supposed to be above that. I haven't said she couldn't post her opinion, I haven't criticised her personally.

But instead of actually getting clarification I'm getting vague "you should reflect on your behaviour" comments without actually knowing what it is I've apparently done wrong. It's gatekeeping because people have a particular attachment to a certain user. If someone is able to show me where exactly I've been a bully and/or out of line in criticising Jen's opinion, I will happily reflect on my behaviour. Until then, I think the likes of Jathanas aren't responding with any clear answers because they know they don't have a leg to stand on and are just coming to the aid of a more prominent user.

Dear PS,

Please know that I am one of the few here who think that your original opinion about Jen's incessant posting about Henry was on the money. As I've noted before, I think her hyperbolic love for Olly was not the issue. She's entitled to her fandom of anyone on the list. It was her unwarranted criticisms of anyone who might have been considered in his way of getting picked that grated. JC, AJ and anyone else were relegated to the sidelines in her cheerleading. So, I'm genuinely beside you in the trenches on this one. We adore Jen for all her other stuff but (and I know I'll cop s**t for saying this), she should be banned from making another remark promoting Olly imo, if it involves criticising another player on the list. BF rules forbid opposition posters from denigrating our players and we should - particularly as a moderator - refrain from doing the same. Love Jen but also love your original contention. Keep posting mate and just ignore the sycophantic responses!

You realise moderators are actually posters first, right? Arguing that they ought to have less posting rights than the rest of us is silly

Fair enough. Probably went too far on that one. Apologies, mate

But obviously not in your case, I see, esteemed elder!

it's nice to see a bunch of presumably heterosexual males who want to get physically involved with Lippa...

Or bi-sexual. It is 2022 after all.

As long it isn't about Jamie, then they would have a fight on their hands.
