Goose, Im not defending Murray and I dont consider myself to be part of any clique.
All Im trying to say is there is absolutely no need to actually "blame" anyone.
If you believe Murray made a mistake, just tell him, there is no need to chastise him. If he wants to argue his case, Im sure he is man enough to do that. So he should be allowed to.
If he wants to throws his toys out of thr pram, who gives a shite anyway.
I just dont understand why everyone has to be so reactionary over such trivial things.
The only reason I can see for it, is an underlying resentment ovrr Mike and that last post just re- enforces that.
I was late to this site and didnt really feel I could comment on the Mike business but I also believe the action they took was wrong and the mods made a big mistake but we all make mistakes, there is no need to hold it against the core ppl of the site otherwise we might not have a site in the morning.

and pigeon chat was 10x this site not knocking this site but one persons sad demise (jt) was reason the site went under she run a fair ship and was no dictatorship like here where 4 or 5 people run it and dare not disagree with what ever any of others post because their in the click regardless look at post over last few months since new influx same old people after certain people gone if neil and Mike were left be more posts than now sorry for the truth but wont be welcomed by who's left now even if it made for good debate or lack of agreement but be more posts than before chat closed but not the athiuroty which is what the moderators whant by the way its going at the min if you don't want to read what someone posts don't read it or do and don't action it if you don't want to debate it but don't remove someone because you don't want to and have the authority to remove them as it makes you look like a dictatorship

You know what Murray thinks of his birds, the same as we all do but you couldnt wait to jump down his throat.
It wasnt necessary, you could have easily just made light of the remark in a quiet way.
IMO your unecessary, over- reaction would bring about more attention from Joe public that a joke comment from Murray.
My other point is that since the episode with Mike there is still a lot of resentment from some members to a point where people are hanging on the every word of the ppl responsible and cant wait to bring them down.
We are all pigeon fanciers together ffs. Some know more than others, some do things different, some say the wrong things, some are funny and anyone with the initials BB are as serious as fck and are not happy unless they are quoting rules.
We are all different but we all enjoy the same thing so
lighten up for goodness sake.
What a load of absolute rubbish. The blame is firmly with Murray and his post should have been deleted right away. And I'm pleased BB took him to task over it.

But as is the way with people now when Mr Murray was taken to task he took his ball and went home :lol:

The very same attitude that got the aforementioned Mike and NeilA deleted. Old pals act and all that eh. BB and most probably my days are numbered :lol:
What a pathetic and childish approach Goose. Far worse is said every day on facebook but there is no one there to police it so people get away with it. No yours or BB days aren’t numbered. Mike and Neil were never deleted, their accounts were deactivated and can be reactivated at anytime, all their old posts are still available. Get your facts right. Unfortunately over the whole debacle of what has gone on over the past year we have lost the main contributer on the site and the one who kept the site running for so many years. That being Buster. We are not pigeon chat and don’t want to be, that site failed. We are here for each other and to help each other not to try to score brownie points over each other. A lot of us have many years of experience with pigeons and other livestock and it’s this experience that we should be sharing and not all this constant bickering and snipping. Everyone needs to get over themselves and move on, life’s too short.
Deactivated then not deleted same thing really. Silenced. Never had Facebook and never will so don't really understand what goes on with it or its relevance to this discussion. Its a good job their posts are still available so that people who actually want to learn how to race pigeons instead of pat each other on the back with bang average performances can learn how to do just that. I've been on here a couple of years now and they were without doubt the best 2 contributors to this site. Tony Webster coming back on and posting a bit more regularly has been a big positive as obviously another guy who knows how to fly a pigeon.

Where are the moderators now? What happened to the requirement for respect? The above post includes a threat to anyone who has the temerity to disagree with the poster or are personal connections more important than site rules and expectations

Can i remind members, the point of the site is to help others in the sport. There is no need for anyone to turn a topic, into a topic that can be offending to other members. Please take note

And the point of this was what?

To the mods. Its not up to me but I dont think there is any need to deactivate anyones account over this. Emotions have taken over and I reckon a lot has been said that needed to be said!
We all know where the boundaries are and hopefully it might have done a bit to clear the air.

Well if a certain person's account doesn't get deactivated after that lot above at least we all know we can say what we want which would suit me right down to the ground.
