Quoted from marinerjase
Maybe, as he alluded too..he was lonely, had pressures (as we all do) and , like a lot go to games and vent/let off steam - him not being able too meant this was his outlet??

Yes he came across terribly..but where’s the compassion/thought?? Others on here give outright abuse and it’s not even questioned..

Furthermore..why are so many on social media triggered by what others/ how others react to what they think?? Particularly those they don’t know..I don’t get it. So many give the daft tick/crosses so much emphasis. It’s like a popularity thing..’ooh I need to be liked’ ..or as we know some use it the other way to belittle/knock others.. it’s pathetic. But it’s encouraged.

If you want to say something, in the right way, to encourage/debate/discuss then say it regardless. So what if people disagree/don’t like. And vice versa if someone gets on your nerves, or winds you up - don’t react, ignore..they’ll soon get fed up if on a wind up, and if - perhaps in this case who knows..they just need a sounding board/interaction or the feeling of…

In this day and age of mental health issues/after pandemic etc etc there are some whose lives have. Hanger drastically and impacts in ways others might not understand.

So allow them a second though before disregarding:slating:forcing out etc etc

(Appreciate this won’t go down well)


And if anyone is struggling reach out! There is a huge range of skills between us all. Everyone is good at something. Everyone struggles with other things. Most people will respond positively if contacted in private.

Absolutely..I’ll be the first one to say didn’t help himself..but for a forum which has a massive thread on mental health issues/experience to then perhaps (if the case) make feel someone they aren’t welcomed…..🤷‍♂️

Anyway..said my piece..hopefully everyone, including myself, perhaps has a think on how to interact in future 👍

I hope he comes back after a break with a fresh approach. I know he’s supportive of Artell and thinks it’ll come good, and it would have been nicer to properly debate/discuss the reasons for and against.

Wouldn't say he has been forced out, but he was so antagonistic it was hard to have a conversation with him as every comment he took offence too and then threw back obscene comments.

That said, i hope he's okay as The Fishy was clearly something he was very invested in

I never fell out with the bear.

But

Did notice he always went back at people who disagreed with him.

I have always said talking about the post is the way to go instead of red crossing them.

But telling them to intercourse. off is not what I meant.

Quoted from GrimRob


He asked to leave. Normally I give people 24 hours to confirm, but in his case I removed him straight away.


Absolutely disgraceful.  And publicising it even worse.  
What do you want, a round of applause.  There are regular posters on here that give far worse abuse to other posters than he has.  
I’m disappointed , but have to say not at all surprised.  
I used to defend this board to the many that slagged it off.  
Not  any more I’m afraid.  

Free speech.  
Yeah right.

Feel free to bring on the red crosses folks.  I am fortunate that I really don’t give a sh1t.  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Lower your blood pressure. He asked to leave, Rob wanted him to take 24 hours before confirming but B&WB decided to leave straight away...Rob has nothing wrong here...
And in respect to B&WB, unfortunately the bloke was just unreasonable, couldn't debate without getting sarky, aggressive or down right bloody rude, so I'm sorry, but I for one wasn't giving him an easy ride, if you want to say what you want then say it, but sometimes responses come with consequences.

All that said I do hope he's OK,.....poor mental health is awful, after 30 years of suffering with it on and off, I can sympathise with him there.

Bet he comes back under a different alias - we'll soon tell. To be honest I hope he does - it's all in the fun even if most of us think a lot of his replies are shite. Come on B+WB you know you want to.

I said he'd asked to leave so people would be able to distinguish it from being removed. But I see you've managed to spin it into him being a victim of free speech.
