Whatever happened to Nick Birse, Lonegroover, Ken Pollard (aka Eric the Colourful) and Derek (aka Dr Who)?
This is a case for Crimewatch to investigate! |

I saw a Nick Birse had joined Jezzas last month but has not posted.
There are other missing posters, those who have not enjoyed this forum the past two weeks, they are staying away or leaving. Toggy Tea Slurper left the forum about 10 minutes ago.

May I ask why she left and others intend to?
I don't bother with Jezza's Exiles anymore. I've not been on there in nearly a year. |

I would guess it's because of you. You're the only change in the last 2 weeks, but (let's be honest) you yourself haven't changed much since we got fed up of you on the old boards. |

It's not you Scott, you seem like a nice boy.
It's your relentless tirade on just about every R2 show the rest of us enjoy. Would you stand on the centre spot in St James Park (Newcastle) just before a Saturday afternoon home match, yelling, though a loud haler, I think Alex Ferguson is fantastic! You Geordies suck! That's kind of what you're doing on here. Be nice!

Reasons for discontent here include Scott but also include treatment of Mark and his news 'reports', including some displeasure with the behaviour of the mods - who can never please everyone. |

Certainly disappointing to lose any members from this forum-we need to build numbers up.
Hopefully this will be a more pleasant place to post this week.

I used to enjoy posting for the banter but recently I have been just been observing. I have become increasingly put off by the tone of several of the posters. Hopefully things will improve _________________ Over the hill they came....the greatest Army in the World.....The Tartan Army |

And what about recent arguments that have broken out on here against other posters? Also, please take account of Saturday night's events when I was verbally abused on here by Clott South. |

Scott, yes you complained about clott, but I'm now referring to complaints received after that. |

Textually abused, Scott, not verbally - surely? |

Yes, John - and I appreciate you punishing him for "textually abusing me" on here. I don't think that was the last of it, though. I shall not rise to anymore baiting. |

This forum seems to be becoming a bad copy of an Eastenders episode.
However, as most of the cast in EE die, get shot or leave on Christmas day, I will bide my time. Not long soon!
G Floyd...please wait it out! |

What?
C'mon Ernie you can't leave just as I was starting to listen to Evans with one ear at least!
I'm sure the hassles will soon be banned... I mean resolved.
Who's going to keep Fred in order?
G'wan stay!

Santa, it's not just about Chris Evans being attacked. I have been attacked regarding my threads in the news section. We used to do all this on the old R2 MB and started some good discussions, but Fred started to attack me over this. Two members have PM me, and were disgraced how the mods are backing up the trolls some of the time. It's getting slightly worse than the old Radio 2 MB and will get out of hand. So the best way is not to post as much then it won't windup likes of fred etc..if I do. I don't like being insulted and I'm not a child.
Anyway keep smiling. No doubt he will add his comment, as he needs his taste..

I think it is a big disgrase. Why does this Scott Nielson and FireFred be so horrible to members like Marc Occamore and Eddie Floydd? They seems such nice persons. It is not right they should be barned now I think.

How can you say the Mods on here are back up the trolls? Just because Paul and John have joined in with the anti-Chris Evans postings that does not make them trolls. Nor does it make anyone a troll who slags off Chris Evans.
For your info Ernie, I like Chris Evans - just not on Drivetime.
By the way, talking of trolls, Clott South (I'm his idol) came on here last Saturday night and verbally abused me. He then tried to play the part of the victim after John gave him two major warnings. He then protested against his 6-hour banning set for the next day (yesterday morning). John told him to stop but he persisted posting insults at me and continued to post argumentative threads directed at John. I find it ironic that Clott, as well as other posters on here, have complained about myself and Fred when we have also been abused on here.
Last week I was attacked by Two Stepper. You, Ernie, have also attacked me numerous times on here. I don't appreciate people pointing the finger at me when, in fact, I haven't been involved with all of the nastiness on here these past seven days.

I am not rude to anyone. On the contrary, I think my behaviour has been much better on here compared to old Radio 2 board. This is victimisation! |

I'm afraid I agree with Highlander - although I have not contributed much, I have enjoyed reading; but the atmosphere recently and the response to my last efforts at posting, which were meant to be putting another viewpoint and being informative on the subject in question, were such that I immediately signed out and have only signed on again to post this. Yes - I am involved in other forums where clearly my time could better be spent. Until the tone here improves (which I would hope that it does ) - it is another member lost. |

Well, according to Ernie, the Admin team on here are trolls (because they allow others to criticise the rubbish Chris Evans spouts on a daily basis).
Paul (Admin) responded to one of the anti-Chris Evans postings last week claiming the guy is talentless. Not everyone likes Chris Evans. |

Ditto, Highlander, apart from deleting R2OK from my bookmarks.... despite the fact that I don't appear to have the time I did a few months back, I would still make time to post but I'm not about to start getting embroiled in fights or arguments. It's not why I signed up for - I can waste my time watching the new American TV shows instead!
Once Bob Harris returns to Saturday nights, I fully intend to resume the reviews for those who are still left here, as I enjoy writing them, but until then I'm probably just going to take a back seat and watch the fur fly (or not).
Plus, my mate Nat's not here anymore. I miss her (and our 'how to put the world to rights' PMs). _________________ Author: “To the Ends of the Earth: A Snapshot of Aviation in North-Eastern Siberia, Summer 1992”
