Less Conflict In Non Ducati Forums

I'll repeat the key points of what I said in order to try to help you.

That's NOT "like" me at all. I don't put people on ignore. As I thought I made clear a couple of times above, I am not likening people to arseoles, but opinions (everyone has one). What I have on ignore are the Lounge and Speakers Corner sections (because of the opinions they contain) .... not the people. If you or anyone else posts something to do with Ducatis then I like to be able to see it.

Again that is NOT the alternative I suggested. I didn't suggest banning everyone. I merely made a suggestion in jest ("crazy" and "not really serious" is what I said) that there should be an area for political discussion that is even more separate than the current Speakers Corner section .... a totally separate site in fact ... a "less permeable membrane" so that they are less likely to bleed into each other. I didn't suggest banning anyone from anything. Oh ... I also went on to say that I actually prefer the OP's suggestion to mine.

Ironically your post is an example of exactly the kind of thing that alienates folk and makes them pull away from the Ducati Forum and post less or even leave :-(

 

See above :-/

 

Perhaps if everyone put Dave on ignore, problem solved?

what do I win and is it in euro's?

 

So 50 posts each then. Sorted .

 

Our forum is no different from any other

If you do not like an individual, then place them on ignore
If one small part of the forum that has over 42 sections, bugs you, avoid that one small part
If you feel the other parts are weaker, then you as a member can promote and improve those other parts

Those simple 3 things would massively reduce the chances/perception of conflict
