Yellow card for “uncivil”

Pm

Dear Brian?,

You have been warned for being uncivil.

Typically, this means that you are posting in a needlessly aggressive or confrontational manner being disruptive on the forum or causing stress for the other members. We don't want that here.

For more information please refer to the Boards.ie FAQ.

Moderator Note

I would suggest you dont engage with this poster like this again. You are attacking him here, instead of his posts. Please improve your posting going forward.

Your post:Quote: Brian?
Quote: the dunne


This is the last I will say on our matter as it has been rightfully pointed out that this exchange should have been done by PM but I feel that this post deserves a public response.

I have nothing to apologise for. I did not call you a liar. I said you were dishonest and your posting history on this thread shows your blatant tacit support for antifa.

I stand by that.

I abhor antifa and their supporters. My contributions to this thread back up this. At least I have the courage to declare my position in the matter.


Calling someone dishonest and then saying you didn't call them a liar is cowardice. It takes no courage. You can't be dishonest without being a liar. You should be apologising or supporting the accusation. Instead you're running away.

If you think I support Antifa. You're wrong. I don't.

Hello, Brian? I'll be looking at this for you. I see you have already discussed the sanction with the mod, could you please forward them to me, please?

I'll have a look at this later today and hopefully get back to you early tomorrow.

Hey Buford, all the PMs are in this thread. It wasn’t much of a discussion. I was just told “no, bring it to DRP”

Again, apologies for the delay, Brian?, but I wanted to go back over the conversation leading up to the card for context.

I'm afraid I'll have to deny your appeal for this card. The card was issued for uncivil posting, in this case attacking the post rather than the poster. You quoted a post in your reply but the majority of the reply was an attack on the poster rather than the post, in my opinion.

While I can sympathise with the situation you found yourself in, reporting the post would always be a better option than an attack on the poster. Other posters do have a right to be wrong, as it were.

You may, of course, appeal this decision to Admin if you wish.

Hi. Thanks for taking a look. I really don’t believe I was being uncivil in the post I was carded for.

The Dunne said something about having the courage to post his opinions and I disagreed it took courage, which was why I used the word “cowardice”.

Your explanation is far clearer though, so I thank you for that. But if you could give me a clearer guidance on what exactly was uncivil it would really help me in future as well. Is that ok to ask for?

If not we can close this thread and move on, as I don’t see the point in bothering the admins over a yellow card.

I can take this up with you by PM later tonight, if that suits you?

Done. Shut it down boys!
