A "badly" behaved Hippo - who had allegedly been given a yellow card - for not showing his true likeness... has "disappeared" from CY44..



Anyone knowing his whereabouts is requested to contact AJ



Be aware that joining in the" search" is likely to result in one's own disappearance ;)

Best looking Barmaid in TRNC? My nomination-Alina from Tataristan (ex-USSR) at the Corner Bar.

She is a babe. Used to be a sports dancer and looks like she can still crack walnuts between her arse-cheeks.

I noticed that Hoppi joined the retired butcher's "double-happy clappy board", where he started crying this text: (...) Hippo has been banned from another board for daring to question the rule that his Avatar was not acceptable (although it had been in use for over 2 years). Also his daring to question the philosophy of the so called moderators, any of my friends that do post there beware, bully boy tactics in use. Assist the Hippo ask where he is, and why he has been banned."



Omg, how low can you sink as a grown up..?



Btw, good riddance here.

What a drama over what is a 1 month ban. Anyone would think it was for a lifetime.

I was disappointed to see that Hippo managed to draw you in Mark. You are the only one so far. Even on the other board there does not appear to be any takers.

As far as I know the posters that are affected are being e-mailed and being asked to supply photos to replace those that are deemed unsuitable so as you can imagine this will take sometime especially as some members don't look at the e-mail addresses that they supplied when they joined the board.

Whilst I accept whatever rule 14 says, was this a rule that was implemented AFTER some of us posted avatars, dogs etc? I really can't see the point in the insistence of a proper photo, what difference does an avatar (as long as its not offensive, which Hippos wasn't) or a photo make. Next you'll be making a rule that no photo no membership and then see Cyp44 go downhill fast.



Maybe I should just take a photo of someone in the street, I guess that would be accepted, even though it wouldn't be of me. You can say all you like about building a 'community', but some people don't want their photos on!



Rules rules rules, bloody stupid some of 'em and therefore should be changed....... i'll wait for the ban.

I tell you what, lets make you a 'moderator' for a month and lets see how you get on.

Want to take the job? have you got the time to spare? I warn you now it is unpaid and the only reason we do it is to keep away the idiots that think they are bigger than the board. You would need to work at least 4 hours a day and try to slot in with the other few 'moderators' that try to keep this board from falling into total anarchy. You will get countless e-mails complaining about different postings that some perceive as against the rules when the majority of others don't, we have to look at every posting by a member that has been complained about, we then e-mail those that are thought to be a problem, most do not answer their e-mails because their e-mails were set up just get them membership so then we have to make a decision and banning members is a last resort but if it is deemed necessary to keep the peace then it will be done.

Hi AJ re 43



make me a mod... I can take it !



It needs CONSISTENCY, and it "appears" that Hippo is banned" whilst ( say) Millzer is not .. you say I'm "alone" in this observation.. that clearly ain't true... looking at the thread..



I rarely post on the board you refer to and I don't need encouragement from anyone to speak my mind ;) ...YOU of all folk should know that !



Try not to take all posts as personal.. you have helped me with that one !

AJ. Re. message 26.

"Even on the other board there does not appear to be any takers".

That's because the other board, to which you refer, is "double happy clappy" & has friendly members who like to help one another. It also doesn't encourage postings that denegrate other bulletin boards, unlike this one.

Oops I feel a ban coming on.

Only my two penny worth but out of the 45 posts on this thread alone there are only 4 photographs of people, if they idea is to have personal photographs of the poster, not there pet, favourite landscape, baby photograph or a wedding they went to in the bahamas for example then there are many photos that are not complying with the rule.

The irony in my case is that I did have my photograph on and it was changed to another photo by someone without my knowledge, hence I have not put another photo.

I understand that placing a photo of yourself makes it a more communal forum where people may recognise you but if there is also an option to be anonymous, i.e, no photograph then I can't fully understand why and Avatar is not also accepted.

And here is the kicker, because of using the correct photgraps as requestedd, Mark has had questions raised about his marrying a beautiful younger woman, and Coachie has been accused of alsoholism, just two examples of abuse because of the photos.

Tell me how you would deal with the problems that have happened over the last few months especially with new members that have joined just to see how far they can push the rules and the board? (and believe me there are a few)



Mark

'It needs CONSISTENCY, and it "appears" that Hippo is banned" whilst ( say) Millzer is not .. you say I'm "alone" in this observation.. that clearly ain't true... looking at the thread..'



I have already answered that question or did you miss one of my post's? Or are you still in the 'Hippo Camp' of 'help me because I cannot sort it out by myself'

Never mind Mark I am sure Hipps will buy you a few drinks to thank you for your support.

Oh yes there was a reason,you said he was due in court the following morning.

Did you appologise to him for that by the way?

Hi AJ re 49



OK, let's accept that in Hippo's case theirs more to it.. you DID say that...



BUT...



YOU used this as the excuse his banning.. I'm quoting you.. and I'm CLEARLY not alone in questioning CONSISTENCY...



Proger1 makes some VERY good points about those that do point phtos !



I DO NOT want to be banned for questioning what is a VERY valid point or two... it doesn't have to mean one is disruptive or a "glove puppet" for a banned member.... Once again, I'm QUITE capable of "being my own man" ;)

All I have ever said to Hipps is that he needs to sort out his problem with the owner of this board re 'avatars' it was simple but Hipps wanted to make it more complicated. End of story.

Try asking Hipps for the true story (my guess is you will not get it).

Proger1..You are absolutely right as far as my avatar is concerned,but people all the world over will throw insults at a picture if they get annoyed with that person.I am guilty of that as far as Hippo is concerned,have insulted the picture a couple of times, so can you imagine what would happen if everybody showed their true identity.Probably better if NO avatars were shown...

I agree with you Coachie. As is being discussed at the moment on another thread and has probably been discussed a multitude of times there are and have been multiple identities on the Forum and as such if you had to post a photo then the reborn and multiple posters would just use a false photo so whether a photo (real), photo (false), an avatar or no picture there would be no difference.

The only thing that I can think of behend the decision against Avatars is copyright infringement that the Forum may be held responsible for which would not be fair if it is the poster's decision to use someone elses Avatar.

As Mark has said though there should be some consistency, I believe Hippo must have gone a little further than just what we know but in fairness why should his be removed when there are so many others not showing photos of themself.

Mind you there are 2 sides to every story and on this Forum people appear to choose the side that causes the most friction, most of the time.

Consistency is who you know re mods I do believe. Some get banned and some just carry on, weird to say the least. Why do folks need to email with comlaints if the mods monitor this site? Just another case of lets all email cos we dont like what he/she says! ..............

I can't say that my photo has caused me any problems, the only problem I have ever had on here was when I posted my email address, I got some pretty strange emails.

I really can't understand why after 2 years Hippo's avatar has become a problem to Izzet.

Britvic.: Yes i have, i have sent him three, ive got a bit of make-up on mind, but i wear it all the time.



Dizzycows.: This is what i cant understand, i was a male model, for the british army, many years ago. I used to model gas masks.. My looks are more than good enough for cypruss44, as are yours im sure..

Spooky I know,....



but the only picture I can find that's a true likeness of me is a photo of George Clooney.



Would I be breaking the rules if I emailed it to Izzet?

RE msg 70, fire_starter: (...) Yet again if it were true that jr was who it was said he was there are others on here with mulipul ids known to one or all mods yet not banned . (...)

=> Of course "jr" was the rules breaking (banned) idiot, formerly "Littlenige"! His only acceptable ID is IDiot, although the list of his cheating nicknames is still growing. I wrote that before and two days ago. But he'll be back today or tomorrow or the day after tomorrow - because he still doesn't understand that the management and Admins of this board do not want him nor his cronies here. We'll see who wins the battle.

P.S. Warning: unfortunately you have to mistrust every new board "member" - it may be the deceiver Nigel Watson.

I'm not allowed to post a URL then? Does this contravene a rule?

All right,... I'll come clean!



DutchCrusader doesn't actually exist.



He is one of my multiple alias's, but quite a difficult one to keep in 'character'.



I'm finding it so hard to control this 'alter ego' alias, that he may even try to deny that he is actually me!







The Truth is out there!

Erm I suggest you read the rules.

If you have any problems with understanding the rules then please feel free to e-mail any of the board administrators or failing that then e-mail the board owner Izzet.

Take care.

So how did I break rule 15?

A member asked for information & I supplied it.

Seems I have complied with sentence A & sentence B.



Rule 15. Posting Links to Other Forums

Posting links to other forums is permitted with the discretion of forum admins.

Pointing out something on another forum for information purposes, is acceptable.

Nevertheless, linking to one specific forum repetitively, for the purposes of advertising that forum, will get you banned.

This thread is now closed.



-------



Just to clarify:



I kindly asked Hippo to send me a photo to replace.

He said he will not continue to post if we change his photo.



I see this very wrong.

A member is using this free board and threatening us not to use the board if we change his photo.



We changed the photo.

Note that as per our forum rules, we decide whatever suits. Period.



He then sent several rude emails to us. So, that's the reason of 1 month ban.



He is free to post after one month if he likes.



End of discussion.



Izzet

P.S. Thank you very much AJ for your continuing support!

Silly me for one minute I thought that you were not conversant with the board rules.

Don't let it worry you, if you have no malicious intent then you are ok. All I was saying was that if you have any problems with the interpretation of the board rules then please feel free to contact any member of the 'board admin' staff and we can help you.
