Why guest posts must not be allowed.

I post on on several forums and two of which are smaller sites like this one. I've read here on and off and felt it was time to register here as there are no anonymous   posts.

My observations as follows where posts about registered members are let through.  At times they can be not so nice at all and when the member raises their concerns they can get the following response from other members, guests (could be anyone inc admin posting as guest), those that admin/run the site.

At times you remain on a site as you've made a friend or two but even they can be turned against you.

You can fuck off.

Faux outrage after having let through the same post.

BS messages that the admin won't allow posts of that type again.

Openly join in.

Take the piss.

I'm currently FM on one of the other smaller sites and thinking about not posting there again. I also post on DS and Mumsnet.

Huh?

I didn;t really understand your post to be honest

are you new here? if so, welcome anyway

Hello and welcome!

I've just beat myself over my OP and am really sorry for not making it clear as this site has not allowed guest posts for a while.

To be clear, the sites I posted about allow anonymous posting, IE from non registered posters and allows admin and registered posters to post autonomously. My beef is with the admin/owners that allow guest/anonymous posts through that are aimed at registered posters that post as though they are totally surprised having let through the post/s.

Probably should complain where the problem exists.

Welcome anyway.

Welcome Melly

Thanks.
I did post the message on both of the forums anonymously , but as I thought, they did not post it and I can guess why. Can't keep away from the other site but any more shite posts that are let through, then I'm off.

I've reduced my posting on the other site and the forum looks a lot less active than usual. Those allowing the shite, anonymous posting aimed at me are dumb struck as there has been no shite posts by guests aimed at me.

I've read and re-read this post and I still don't understand any of it...

Anyway....welcome. Get posting! There are many threads to immerse yourself in.

Hey and Howdy

Hello and welcome to NF.

Howdy, hi to all.
My understanding is that someone is saying that the admin/owners are saying that they would never let through an anonymous post that was having a go at one of their members and then demonstrate faux outrage. I can understand why they feel like that as if you can kid yourself for long enough, you really start to believe in the crap you post, allow through. People classy lady off DS but compared to the smaller sites where username-less posting is allowed, DS wins hands down.

Which forum are you talking about MELLY?

Was it you who mentioned elsewhere that you guest posted on this forum?
At the time I pointed out to you that Newsfix does not allow guest posting.

Which forums? No, I only read, Which magazine not post on it. Other than that, I'm not sure what you are saying.

The sites I am referring to have got the message but won't post them as I tried again yesterday.

Oh....OK.

I'm staying there as those that kind of run the site have got the message that it's not acceptable to let through nasty posts aimed at registered members by anonymous users. There are several culprits and they've mellowed, until their next drink or bad day or both.
Thank you Newsfix for allowing me to put in place nasty, admin.

Is that on mumsnet?

No and they don't have anonymous posts. I posted a cheek message on both of the sites last night via guest route that some of those that managed the forums that let through crap aimed at those keeping their forums going know they have been found out. Crazy, you let through a guest post and then moan about it by pretending to care for your member, you could not make it up.

Why should this concern members here? There is no guest posting on NF, everyone who posts does so in their own user name.
If other sites that allow guest posting bother you so much....leave.
No forum is worth staying on if it causes you more bother than joy.

Which forum are you on about?

Who said it was here? If I've said it and I've not, point me to it. I would have left if the message had not hit home as the culprits on both forums know as I can tell by not having any anonymous, nasty crap posted at me for a few days.

I read Which magazine but don't post there.

Why not forget your grievances on the other forums whilst you are here and join in with some of the debates on this forum. .

Like Syl says, forget the other forums and join in with debate here.

Why did you not say that you own, run a small forum? I would have saved you the time and effort. No, it's not your forum. A bow to my dear friend here for the direction.

I don’t own a forum? Whatever gave you that idea.

You are the one being cagey.
Why not explain what you are on about?

Weirdest, crappiest thread I've ever seen.
You keep hoping it will get better, but no, it gets worse with every post the OP makes.

People like this converse loudly with themselves when walking alone down the high street - complete with elaborate hand gestures, everything.
LMAO  !!

About the forum and when I said that it is not your forum, you should have told me earlier. It is not you, so keep your nose out of it.

The message to the right people was delivered quiet a while ago. The funny thing is that the drunk tried to ban my IP. Thankfully, I use a non VPN IP as a member there. That was a close call.

Julie, if this thread is like you said, why stick your big nose in it?

This Poster reminds me of a Women who kept posting rubbish years ago, can't remember the name she posted under !

Jules is a member here and has the right to reply.

Seriously though - you are talking in riddles!

Was the other member who talked complete gibberish that Andria Boardman character? I know she posted here at one point, before my time I think, but I posted with her elsewhere, and she made 4ever look reasonable.

Totally agree Jules... And I couldn't have said it better myself!!!

Syl, that's the name I was looking for !

4ever2

No way!

4Ever had her faults, she was always up for a row, she'd argue with her own shadow.
But she was also sharp as tack and she researched all her topics very well before she posted.
I liked her cos she was gloriously left wing (like sassy was) but unfortunately she fell out with everyone - including me.

This site was really, really busy when all those left wingers were around for you lot to argue with, but hey the past is gone, let's look forward.


Andrea Boardman only ever talked about other sites, never anything else - and collected bans as trophies. There's fruitcakes - and there's Andrea.

That was her. I remember posting with her somewhere.

That's who this sounds like.

Might have been Dogs, she was on there the same time I was.
I didn't interact with her much because I never knew what she was going on about.

I think so. Assuming she used her real pic she was a plumpish middle aged woman.

I thought it might have even been on SOL.

Yes she did look like that, she made video's of herself and posted them on Dogs. if I remember rightly she had a grudge against our Ben from here, and she used to go on about him quite a lot.

I remember the crazy videos.

I bet she had the hots for Ben. That's why she talked about him so much.
