Forum Behaviour

Post by Null_Byte »

It has come to my attention, several times over the last week when I have logged on to the forum and seen some rather inappropriate and border line aggressive and bullying posts between members.

Rovertech has always prided itself on being above the sort of mindless chavery that you get on other forums, and I find it quite depressing to see several members letting the side down.

Can I remind everybody that this is supposed to be a friendly family forum, and while the majority of us are adults we do have several junior members on the board.

I also don’t think there is any place for some of the behaviour I have seen recently. Good natured banter is one thing, but there is no place for nasty aggressive or threatening posts.

If this does continue I will have to consider unleashing the ban hamster on all members violating the rules.

What is that? Do I hear a call of the famous 'Blame Monkey'? Ban Hamster's famous side kick? More famous than Ban Hamster himself?

I tell you that duo would tidy this place up and kick that attitude into touch, it is what they do after all.

That maybe so, but it takes two to tango, and dancing partners can share the prize of a ban. Behaviour will stand on merit, and those who lower themselves to the same level are risking being tarred with the same brush.
