I ask that as a sincere question, not as a dig.

Things do get done about it Ben but we can't force members to like each other and you know we don't hand out massive bans for petty arguing, lets be honest if we did then there would be no one posting.

It's been more than petty arguing between a select few though, it's been a over a year of it constantly. It ruins the vibe of the forum more than anything else has. Again not a dig at you guys.

The same goes for all the 'we need a private thread' etc, no we don't because it would be a novelty that would wear off in a few days for the simple fact that there would be no rule breaking and no audience.

Far too many on here are too quick to blame others for the things that happen and can never ever take any responsibility for their own actions.

I take this is for me, seeing as you said that last paragraph to me yesterday?
I'll ask you what I asked ben, I have said all this before.. what do you want me to do, put up with it, leave, laugh it off?

No Kizzy it wasn't aimed at you but as usual you took it to be....

Josy you used those exact words to me via PM, and then you state them on here and i'm not expected to think you could mean me?... I'm sorry but that's just ridiculous.

If I had said that you would be accusing me of sniping, not saying you are you understand.

I Still don't get why members are allowed to use other members pictures against each other & telling someone they look like Crazy Frog & NOTHING. CharlieO got a straight 2 week ban as 'Banned' & not as a build up of infractions for that, just putting it out there

Right this has nothing at all to do with this topic but lets clear this up too....

Locke never saved anyone's picture, that image had been posted on here before and he used the link, incase you haven't noticed Locke is on a ban for posting that picture the other night so members aren't 'allowed'?

Also you are the last person to bring up other members saving or using pictures etc Jack when you posted a screenshot on here and everyone saw Leons image on your desktop.

I got sent that image from skype I didn't go out of my way to save a picture, I've been in a chat on skype with Leon. And I didn't use it against him or insult him, I'm not like that crew of members that are not banned whilst Stacey is for the same thing & being 15

I know it ruins the vibe of the forum, we are doing what we can about it.

Stacey was banned by admin for way more than posting someone elses picture..

Again this has nothing at all to do with the subject we were discussing in this thread.

Salman I know you did but someone posted that crazy frog one a while back, that's the link Locke used.

He never saved your image.

Reminds you of what lol

[The Human Santapede]

Anyway back to what this discussion was originally about.

With the Razzies could we not just trial it this once with an Opt-in method and have it in a private sub forum (like the pub quiz team rooms) to keep it off the forum?

Most of the drama didn't come from the actual awards itself.

[Kizzy]

Don't turn it on me josy, I don't dislike anyone or have any grudges.
So it's just an unintentional coincidence that you used the same words? Ok.

Right, I'm not in here to start arguments.
Basically, I agree with Ben, we should just try it again but with an opt in option, not opt out. People may be pressured to not opt out and it it's opt in instead, people will feel more comfortable. Now, let's get this thread back on the rails, shall we?

These are the reasons I can think of for not allowing Razzies.

There are controversies on the forum that would come up again during Razzies that I don't think we need to keep re-visiting.

There is a cliquey thing going on at the moment, and, as we have seen before, block voting would happen just to make sure certain people 'win'.

I think on the one hand, Razzies reward infamy on the forum and people acting like idiots. On the other hand, others might feel like they are being picked on and not want to come on again. We don't want to drive people away.

..and this is from someone who never even votes in them but can definitely see that balance is needed and the Razzies gives it in a more structured way than it being more ‘spread out’ and seeping through threads....

Sorry, in my opinion this is utter piffle

What that meant was, we're furious we can't stick pins in you so we'll do it indirectly instead.
This is only my view understand, I'm not speaking for anyone else.
It's how it appeared to me at the time.

It's my view as well, which won't be a surprise to anyone.

It won't be brought back now, James decision is final. Good on him. I can stop making my annual case for why it's not a good thing, hallelujah, thank you.

[The Human Santapede]

To be honest I would expect it will still go ahead, just not on here.
