Posting Suspended

[lee fletcher 4]

I'm a member of the BS. Yippee!!

I've just had my posting privileges suspended according to himself. All I was asking was why the BS is not democratic? All I wanted was an open debate on the BS forum.

Nothing untoward, just a debate.

Regards,

Lee.

I can't see why such a reasonable request should be denied

 

[sam vimes]

I may not be the biggest fan of any of the single species or specimen groups, however, what on earth has this got to do with FM?

 

[Judas Priest]

Lee old son, you really are wasting your time. Just follow the line and stop asking questions.

Going by your remark I can't for the life of me see what a lot of the stuff on here has to do with FM. Most posts are obscurely related to fishing.

Perhaps, but inter-forum bitchfests are never, ever a good thing.

Whilst appreciating an individual's frustrations; please can we refrain from discussing the internal debates and actions of individual societies on this forum.

But isn't that fishing related politics ?

 

[Poshpaul (Angling Trust and PaSC)]

Nope...it's the internal matters of a specific club.

How an individual club or group choose to handle internal discussion is their business (however we may feel about it).

Indeed the very large angling club of which I am a member would instantly permanently terminate my membership for making any internal discussion/debate a public one.

Ha ha I am going to take on someone with a lot more legal training than me ( zero ) but I put it to you PoshPaul , if indeed that is your nMe, that by your logic then the Angling Trust may not be discussed.

Whats the BS????

Barbel society.

 

[Poshpaul (Angling Trust and PaSC)]

Aha!! The Angling Trust is a quasi "public" body!! ......seeking to represent all anglers in a public domain interfacing at a national governmental level. (The discussion of which is always welcome here....)

The sordid and furtive goings on "beneath the sheets" of private clubs with their specific rules and strange rites and rituals may be of gratuitous interest but are not our business. Even if said society seeks to promulgate itself as the sole repository of all that is vital in the world of say bleak!! They are still a private club and their internal squabbles and actions should remain so .

If only for all our sanity!!

Uh oh no way its a private organisation

 

[Ray Wood 1]

Well you can't ask here or on the BS forum so you appear to be up a creek without a paddle meson!

But you've know for donkeys that the BS is and never was democratic. Popeye is lurking in the wings watching this topic so may I suggest you ask him or you could wait for his left hand man he will be along soon.

I think he is still waiting for you to answer over on the Angling Trust topic.

Kind regards

Yes "public body" was not well put...but the stuff on their very "open" and public views and activities are for general consumption.

Its a fair cop guv to be honest , I lied to the court , I was merely trying to spare us another barbel wars , but by the same token I do enjoy reading them hemce my opening statement , let us see what develops.

Only four months to go Lee.
I dare say your totally unjustifiable comments being made elsewhere might have had something to do with it......
and I quote..."I wonder how long Noddy’s tentacles are? Long enough to reach FM from Australia?" ....... pathetic really.

 

[Lord Paul of Sheffield]

And the PaSC cant be discussed either

 

[Morespiders]

And the PaSC cant be discussed either

Only on certain days,and if I say so


PS. I can see this thread ending in tears

Please let it go on, there's nothing to beat the feeling of standing at a safe distance and watching a train crash.

Besides, as the bs claims to speak for ALL barbel anglers NOT just it's members, I would suggest that makes them fair game for discussion on an open forum; surely they can't have it both ways?
