BNET - should he stay or should he go? You choose.

Free speech - a double-edged sword if ever there was one.
Bnet seems to me forever on his marks to rant rant rant, in the most toxic way possible, so if it gets on your tits (like it does with me) just stop giving him your attention. Hover yer mouse over his name in any post and click 'ignore'.
Gone! Your roof is then Bnet free.
On the other hand you might think Bnet should be able to have his say and be heard by all the Roof, like it or not. In that case I suggest you petition the moderators to remove the ignore button.
Up The City!
 
Going on then Micky/Mac delete me Upsondown wants it so be it. Too many imbeciles on here.

Lot of good people but its not worth it for these clowns, trolls and brain dead morons, Sixthswan though not the most offensive but I'd be happy never to talk to him again with is lopsided bullshit and shit stirring.

I'm off, fuck you, hope to see one or two of you soon.

DELETE ME PLEASE MICKY or MAC.
 
I'll log out but just take my name off please as l don't want to respond to the expected abuse that will follow.
 
Everybody has a right to say what they think even if it is offensive to others I have said many things that I don't regret
so why should anyone regret saying anything it clears the air gets the response good or bad FFS there only one life you can lead do it the way you want
Not what others want
 
Ultimately up to bnet if he wants to leave.

It would be a shame, as he's an interesting character.

The bet about Biden not being President for more than 3 months was just plain daft.
 
Stay, I think the information he puts on is to help people make an informed opinion, agree or disagree? its up to you? It would be a lot boring without him, it would be getting like facebook if we start the woke police.
 
I sort of do too.

Got to admire his persistence and energy.

I'm still not even sure if he means what he posts? Is it all just a wind-up?
 
Despite bets lost and serious differences of opinion I'd miss the comedy insults.
 
Don’t think the opening post was asking for a ban.

it was pointing people who don’t like what other people post to the ignore button
 
I don’t think anyone should be forced off really. You can just create an echo chamber if you only allow certain types of views and not othes

Had a row with bnet in past and it got very personal on both sides regrettably but as far as I’m concerned that’s all water under bridge and we’re all adults.

I’m glad he beat off the big C.

We’re all Leicester fans with different views and that should be embraced.

Obviously it would be better if people weren’t insulting each other but we can’t all get along all the time.

Like has been pointed out if people hate reading each other’s stuff then just press ignore and amazingly you haven’t got to read it any more. Or carry on arguing if both sides can handle it (preferably in the right section of site!)

My tuppence that nobody asked for.

I avoid getting involved with the in-fighting that has become the norm & I don't know any of the people involved personally but in most cases I side with Bnet as he comes across as being true to his beliefs & not a whinging complainer like his adversaries. He's been posting on the roof for many years & up until fairly recently the vast majority of his content has been well thought out & mostly humourous.

The point is, Kendall, that when I oppose someone's stance and they are offended then that is not my main aim. Setting out solely to offend them is different.
And no, we are not all mentally unwell, simple exchanging views whilst trying to get along despite our differences. This is done in normal society by observing accepted limits of behaviour, not reducing every issue to the personal.
Before the current mods took over we had a situation where there were rules but they were never enforced, like abolishing the police force.
In the real world there are those that will immediately take advantage, and they did.
The man we are talking about is pissing in the well.
He did it in the politics issues before and is now polluting the footy side as well.
It's not about free speech, it's about respect.
If there are no rules of conduct, say so and some of us can exit to a more civilised forum.
PS - Tudor, yes his conduct was normal for the early years but when I asked if he was OK, quite sincerely having noticed his gradual change I was told to stop being a lying halfwit.
 
As someone who has suffered more abuse from him than most I would always defend his right to state his case however barmy.
However when challenged persistently, his retreat to open or thinly veiled threats of physical violence is clearly an infringement of the boards policy and should be stopped by admin.
No one should be made to feel unsafe for putting an alternative view on an open forum .

You didn’t seem to care too much when several people thought I was you. Happily hurling abuse knowing it’s me and my name being attached to it.

I have no idea who you are ? I can hardly be blamed for bnet hurling abuse at people ?

Incidentally when he resorted to physical threats I contacted admin but did not have the courtesy of a reply .

Was it ‘several’ who thought you were FG?
I tried to point out at the time that he had the wrong person but it didn’t appear to make any difference.
 
your problem is perspective. You only see things in your personal world, and rant and rave against other opinions.so fuck off and find like minded individuals to preach to
