Not true.

I only report your posts which are abusive towards me.

If you get suspended or banned it will be entirely your fault.

It’s a bit sensitive imo to be reporting posts that you find abusive towards you.

It would be even quieter on here if I reported everyone who’d called me names over the years!

Something very wrong with someone who hides behind a fake name (like we all do) and then takes personal offence when slagged off. 4yo mentality.

Mesmerised has resorted to calling me a number of deeply offensive and derogatory names over the years—'Sofaqueen' being the standout example. Nevertheless, it has never once occurred to me to report him here.

Summary of Forum Thread "The Forum Grass"

This is a forum thread showing a dispute between users, primarily involving SirNorbertClarke and another user (apparently named "mesmerised" whose posts have been deleted).

The thread begins with SirNorbertClarke stating that he only reports posts that are abusive toward him, suggesting that if another user gets suspended or banned, it would be their own fault. This appears to be in response to an accusation that he frequently reports posts.

Several other forum members then comment on the situation:

Multiple users (s.kenbo, lurka, sofaking, Emitdeb) criticize SirNorbertClarke's approach of reporting posts, suggesting it's overly sensitive.

s.kenbo mentions that the forum would be quieter if everyone reported name-calling.

User Aspro makes humorous comments about wanting to watch the drama unfold ("popcorn" references) but later notes that the thread lost its entertainment value when mesmerised's posts were deleted.

Several users make jokes at SirNorbertClarke's expense, with lurka calling his behavior a "4yo mentality" for taking offense while using a pseudonym.

sofaking shares that despite being called offensive names by mesmerised (like "Sofaqueen"), they never reported these incidents.

The thread includes some tangential comments and jokes, including one about a "forum Astroturf" and a controversial joke about homosexuality from Emitdeb.

The overall tone of the thread is one of community members criticizing what they perceive as oversensitivity and excessive reporting of posts, with most participants seeming to favor a more relaxed approach to forum interactions despite occasional name-calling or abusive language.

Who knows I might have a long list of bookmarked posts where you have been abusive

So what? We're all adult enough to decide for ourselves what we find acceptable or not. You really don't need to mother us.
Report comingupthehill August 2, 2025 9:32 PM BST
1.presumably,betfair ask the security guard to glance over the forum once a week,and report any offensive issues.

2.but ,an individual poster,could be subtly stalked,hounded constantly by another poster,so maybe they might want to report them.

Everyone is different,one man’s banter is another man’s abuse.

But playing the victim card,shouldnt just automatically trigger action.the victimised,bullied from my experience of life,bring a lot of it on themselves.but in this day and age,it’s hard to say it.

This isn't personal SNC, but this forum has lost enough people over the years. I also wish you'd respect our right to try to keep what is left onboard. If you use your option instead of trying to get them banned then we might all come to what I feel is a sensible solution.
