📰 The latest news!

I waited for Pap to post this but he must be wanking or doing the dishes…

Fuck that bring them back, I’ll watch but won’t post, no fucker posts anyway so am I not being a patsy for no one writing, middle aged children post about Israel yet get their knickers in a twist by me quoting a beeb post from their site.
A lack of tolerance and acceptance is what we have here. Now I won’t be posting but looking I expect a site bursting to the seams with new bold ideas from fresh faced posters, all happy and content in an echo chamber.

Please post this for transparency purposes

It’s called work, Barry.

Men who aren’t kept by their wives do it.

I thought he was kept by Nazi gold

Also for transparency reasons, I’ve put Barry on silent until 8am Monday. Enjoy your weekend, folks.

Which Monday?

The one coming up, so Monday 8th. It’ll be a short visit and a longer period of silence if he plays up.

I take no pleasure in it. I made this place to be virtually ban proof (er, I had my reasons). I hope Barry realises what he’s missing.

In his particular case, the only Saints site that’ll have him and usually welcome his participation.

Fucking hell. I really wanted to know what he thought about muslims, tolerance and acceptance.

Is this a little lockdown present?!

Not for Barry’s missus or hound.

The force is no longer strong with him, young Skywanker.

Not relevant to me but these are really significant changes

I don’t think that Barry understands that it is not just what happened at Hillsboro which was painful enough, but the length of time it has taken for them to get some sort of justice. The police force tried every trick in the book and laid the blame entirely on the Scouse hooligans. They lied and lied and tried to cover up their horrendous part in the tragedy.

Well he picked a really bad weekend to not back down to a pretty reasonable ask. The one where Saints were top of the league on Friday and Saturday night.

Yeah, but Tom Petty wrote that song not knowing about Discourse’s silent feature.

I admire your patience Pap. Barry was a major reason I stopped posting on here a while back and whilst that may have been a good thing for some, it isn’t healthy when a poster seems so toxic they drive others away. There a trolls on WUMs on every forum but most have an ignore function and are big enough that the few toxic posters don’t swamp the rest, but in a small group like this his rants do tend to overshadow the rest.

Like you I value freedom of speech, but as we know, some people abuse the privilege and will continue to do so when warned. You would expect a reasonable person to heed warnings and perhaps modify their approach, if that doesn’t happen, you know that you have a grade A troll/WUM on your hands!

Yes, they liven things up a bit and can make for an interesting discussion, but it becomes more than tiresome when it is on constant repeat.

I notice that there are several posters that were around a few years ago that have since moved on and that is a shame as I still think that this is the best Saints forum around when it comes to self depreciating humour.

Anyway, apart from enjoying the lack of a Barry rant, I shall also enjoy the rest of the day knowing that the Orange One will be out of the White House soon, that we are lording it over the Premier League and all is well with the world for a few hours at least!

You can blame all the departed posters on Barry. Most cite me on their way out.

The main trouble is he will take a serious discussion and personalise it. It usually ends up not being about the real subject but the commentators.

Yup. True story. Since we introduced the mute and ignore functions, there has only been one user that has been muted and/or ignored.

No prizes for guessing who.

The trouble is he doesn’t learn even though he has been silenced numerous times so not holding my breath for any improvement
