And if you don't like the content.. you can always swipe past it....It’s a very interesting topic Silver Tongue .
I’ve seen a bit whilst being upon bigfooty , wore the moderators cap across a number of boards including regional footy boards , had postings investigated by a private investigator on behalf of AFL integrity for 9 months as well as still having an allegiance of fans who take any opportunity to try to incite a response / defame including by the old trolling like .
There are specific rules upon bigfooty to prevent it becoming a shit fight which have always been in place and allowed it to grow , whilst there are a multitude of threads upon some boards which provide a different level of acceptance of those points namely .
Trolling - deliberately attempting to incite a fellow user(s)
Posting off topic / defaming crap which includes poster to poster in house jokes , memes etc
As a moderators it’s always challenging particularly on regional boards if you don’t know identities or history that well . As an example a reference to ‘ the pool’ on one board may be completely innocent. , on another which may have had a player caught with another’s misses it may be offensive .
Mods also incur plenty of messages from
Users who merely seek to silence something from being said spoken about which isn’t actually that bad .
This the GVL yearly thread has always remained quite good in the sense of being there to discuss topics which are relative and all the other bullshit is called out .
I would hope it continues down that path and if people want to go on with in house jokes , memes and all the others shit I’d suggest they start another thread and go their hardest .
I’d also suggest the banging on about one subject or one player like the Coby McCarty love feast , should be used sparingly as it goes from being funny / interesting to being overbearing quite quick .
