A bit of transparency wouldn't do any harm I don't suppose, speaking of which whatever happened to that tw@t who used this forum to scam a load of unfortunate fans out of money? Maybe I missed it but it all seemed to go a bit quiet. Did the police investigation go anywhere? I seem to remember there was a similar one where a poster had bought tickets but not paid? I guess that sort of stuff could also be published. I got an email from Internet Fraud dept, basically saying there will be no investigation because they can't be arsed for a few hundred quid (paraphrased). We could take out a class-action private prosecution or more cost effectively, send round some 'heavies' to recover losses or limbs. What a horrible precedent. Basically, as long as crooks target smaller amounts they'll get away with it. FFS.

There was a report a few weeks ago that I can't find, but this old one is similar: www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/investing/11812377/Victim-of-fraud-Why-the-authorities-WONT-investigate.html These things are best not advertised, but we need to know the risks.

Nice bit of lack of transparency again from The God Emperor and owner of all things DATM. 1. I have not unblocked Gag_N_Bone_Man on Twitter, that's a lie, no matter how many times you pour it out. You changed you Twitter account to @g1g_Daddy_God_Emperor_of_All_things_DATM or some other nonsense, meaning all the people previously sick of receiving your political activist rantings, no longer have you blocked and you can rant again. 2. Your idea of revealing "username, banned for 1 week for personal abuse", is a nonsense and still not transparent. Apparently Grimois can call someone a c*** and this doesn't count, but if they call him "Grimcheat", this is worse than calling him a c*** and results in the poster, not being told he was banned, nor for how long or for what reason. As nobody has yet explained why once again, I was banned without warning, I'm having to guess someone felt offended on your behalf for "Grimcheat" or "Grimflake", which is clearly much more abusive than "c***"? Or is it just that you're above the law again? There was no mention of the London Marathon, you brought this up, not me. You cheat at many things, including the admin system on here. It was not representative of your missing London Marathon times or lack of photo's during the race, so trying to use that as an excuse is wrong. It's become pretty obvious why you wont be transparent on who and why you ban people. It's similar to the fat gobby kid, who was bullied at school, who suddenly gets the power to put other kids in detention, without having to tell them or any of the other kids that they have, for how long or even explain why. It's a little toy you can abuse to score ego points with and silence anyone with a different viewpoint to your own. It stinks and is the reason why I've setup www.downatthemac.com as an alternative for people who want to have a quick break from the fascist, completely hidden and often abused admin system on here. The fans own this forum, not you. Hell, you don't even own the original domain name downatthemac.com You really need to be a lot more transparent and stop encouraging the playground bullying culture on here. It's becoming very childish and could end up biting you in the arse, if alternatives are available.

Hell, you don't even own the original domain name downatthemac.com You really need to be a lot more transparent and stop encouraging the playground bullying culture on here. It's becoming very childish and could end up biting you in the arse, if alternatives are available. 1. Funny how the other people who have me blocked (Katie Hopkins and Jack Buckby) still have me blocked then.... You sought me out Macrus - Id didn't seek you out. 2. Nobody reported the post in which I called you a c***. Had they have done I would have been given a yellow card, and would have accepted it without whining like a little bitch. you did not get told about the reasons for your ban as when you were last banned we sent your registered account an mail explain the reason for the ban, and you replied with a stream of abuse. This thread was my suggestion. I want us as admins to be transparent because without it what happens is that we get people like you receiving an entirely justifiable ban and then, as soon as that ban is served, coming back on here and slinging bud. Let me be clear, for the final time, on a few things: 1. I didn't ban you. I was unaware of the post that resulted in your ban, the ban was adjudicated by the other admins in my absence and by the time I became aware of it, you had already been banned, I rarely log on at the weekend and this all happened over a weekend when I had not logged on. kennyk2 administered the ban and is happy for you to now about it. 2. If I wanted to "silence anyone with a viewpoint different to [my] own" I would be banning people left right and centre. Prime case in point is Otium, who holds similar views to you on Islam but has not fallen foul of the rules because he manages to argue like a grown up. 3. I don't think I own the forum. Never have. 4. There is no bullying culture on here. There is increasingly one of whining and snowflakery from people who have suffered the consequences of their own actions. 5. I served a 12 hour suspension on twitter at the weekend for a tweet that you reported. I have not whinged, whined or moaned about it, because that tweet, whilst I stand by it, broke Twitter's rules. I do find it hilariously ironic that you will report a tweet from me when that tweet was a response to you whining about DATM. To other users of DATM I say this - I will not engage with Marcus on this issue any longer as I feel that anyone with half a bran can see that one of us is deluded and paranoid. My conscience is clean.

2. Nobody reported the post in which I called you a c***. Had they have done I would have been given a yellow card, If only one of the admin team was aware that one of the admin team called someone a c*** eh? Pull the other one, it's got bells on it. and would have accepted it without whining like a little bitch. Or threatening to flounce, which is exactly what you did? Very grown up. you did not get told about the reasons for your ban as when you were last banned we sent your registered account an mail explain the reason for the ban, and you replied with a stream of abuse. Bullshit. I've not even been told via PM on here, why someone was so offended on your behalf, that I received a secret ban again. This thread was my suggestion. I want us as admins to be transparent because without it what happens is that we get people like you receiving an entirely justifiable ban and then, as soon as that ban is served, coming back on here and slinging bud. Bullshit. This thread has shown the exact opposite. You do not and will not be transparent, because the power to ban is your little toy to play with and you now think you own everything DATM, so don't have to answer to the forum users and fans. So, how's this transparency going? Where's the list of members who've dared oppose your infallible opinion, so you've currently banned with no warning, reason or transparency to either them or everyone else on the forum? Much like Brexit, democratic voting doesn't seem to count to people like you anymore. Where's this transparency, still debating it are "we"? Let me be clear, for the final time, on a few things: 1. I didn't ban you. I was unaware of the post that resulted in your ban, the ban was adjudicated by the other admins in my absence and by the time I became aware of it, you had already been banned, I rarely log on at the weekend and this all happened over a weekend when I had not logged on. kennyk2 administered the ban and is happy for you to now about it. That's lovely. So once again, why was I banned without warning, notice or reason? What reason was it this time? Not left wing enough again? 2. If I wanted to "silence anyone with a viewpoint different to [my] own" I would be banning people left right and centre. You do. Where's that list of currently banned members? Half the politics sub forum with a right wing view are usually on a ban because you don't agree with them. You've been caught out several times, creating lame or untrue excuses to ban people, then removing the evidence, so people can't check for themselves. It's this kind of behaviour which has lead to the growing number of people questioning your lack of transparency. Prime case in point is Otium, who holds similar views to you on Islam but has not fallen foul of the rules because he manages to argue like a grown up. What like you? Ha! Ha! Ha! Calling someone a c*** for sharing a different political view to you? How very grown up. 3. I don't think I own the forum. Never have. Stop acting like you do then. Even other admins were unaware of you setting up the new Twitter account. It's not your forum, it's for the fans. 4. There is no bullying culture on here. How can you keep a straight face when you type this? It's there for everyone to see on many threads. The Moaner one was a prime example. The same 10 or 12 left wing clique members do it on the politics forum and here. You ignore it as you're part of it. 5. I served a 12 hour suspension on twitter at the weekend for a tweet that you reported. I have not whinged, whined or moaned about it, because that tweet, whilst I stand by it, broke Twitter's rules. I do find it hilariously ironic that you will report a tweet from me when that tweet was a response to you whining about DATM. It's a shame you've decided that you're above the rules on here. Calling someone a c*** on Twitter will result in a temporary ban, even for @b1g_Daddy_God_Emperors. To other users of DATM I say this - I will not engage with Marcus on this issue any longer as I feel that anyone with half a bran can see that one of us is deluded and paranoid. My conscience is clean. Yet you still refuse any transparency on your abuse of the admin system on here. You asked, people overwhelmingly asked for it, you ignored them. People are bouncing the thread asking for a list of currently banned members, you still ignore them. It's not your forum, it's for the fans. You should be open and answerable to them, not acting like some kind of God Emperor, above the law yourself and able to abuse the admin system with no transparency to the people this forum is meant to be for. Like I said in PM on downatthemac.com, you're all welcome there, but the same abuse and bullying on here won't wash over there as for once, you will not be above the law and rules of the forum and able to abuse it for your own personal point scoring. So, one last time. Why was I banned, who is currently serving bans on here and for what exact reason? It would be nice if you could actually tell us more than "I decided to ban them and call it personal abuse, but won't let anyone else see exactly what the reason was, because then I'd lose my power to abuse the system". You've lied, abused and cheated the system on here several times on here, it's time this stopped.

Discussing with my admin colleagues. Believe it or not, I'm currently the only one who thinks it's a good idea. Most likely outcome is we will trial it but if it causes more problems than it solves it'll get binned.

Discussing with my admin colleagues. Believe it or not, I'm currently the only one who thinks it's a good idea. Most likely outcome is we will trial it but if it causes more problems than it solves it'll get binned. Surely the idea of a poll is that winning it makes a difference? Otherwise might aswell of not bothered tbh and just let the admin do as they pleasey.
