Hello all,
Over the last few weeks, I have seen an increase in the number of posts reported and a decrease in the overall atmosphere of the community here. This is a shame because we have, in my opinion, the best community in FPL.

One of the reasons that the atmosphere is normally so good here is that we do not take pops at our fellow managers when they are having a bad week. However, since the start of the season, these types of posts have increased significantly, and I have posted two general warnings to the community in the last six days.

The last thing I want to do is to start issuing cards and bans for future posts which are in this vein. But it is an easy alternative to losing a lot of regulars who are becoming tired of this increase of aggressive posts.

Some examples of the types of posts I do not want to see.

"Lol @ Dzeko owners"

"Lol at the kneejerkers"

"Haha delighted! It was a stupid decision to sell Costa!!! I knew he'd do well!" - No you did not, you cannot predict the future.

I think you all get my drift. After reading the forum since the start of the season this morning over my breakfast, I have sent out PMs to a number of people who I feel could be a little less aggressive in their posting style.

As I said, I do not want to hand out bans, but I feel I have to start taking this issue seriously or we could lose what is so great about the forum here.

Thanks,
Futureguy
