Re: New Mod - Barnabus : Sun Feb 22, 2015 8:15 pm
As far as I'm aware, the lovely Barnabus is not about to become a mod. Although I'm sure he'd do a splendid job, if he were.It seems i/we've managed to be both hopelessly ban-happy and haplessly lenient. Soz!

As you know the vast majority of HKR fans post on HKRfans.co.uk (as do Castleford and Widnes fans on their respective forums). Those I know who used to post on here all stopped because of the percieved moderation leniency on this board, and I doubt will return unless/until they see the process is tightened on par with other moderators on other boards.
There's not been much to be lenient on, of late. Roversmad's unabating antipathy towards JTP, apart. Mind you, as Bendybus points out, there's not been much of anything.
I enjoy a 'robust' exchange of opinions and bizarre tangents. I take your point though and can appreciate that others will be turned off by 'rudeness' and off-topic nonsense. A genuine sorry to those folks.
The intensity of the intra city rivalry makes comparison with other boards tricky. Even with the Hull FC board, as there's no equivalent of HullKRfans for our B&W brothers and sisters.
HullKRfans itself has been relatively quiet of late, as has the Hull forum. I suspect some people have moved to Twitter, where you're effectively you're your own moderator. On the other hand, i suppose there hasn't been much big news, no Paul Cooke or Tony Larvin type stuff, to get worked up about.
