Yep, that's it. And just to be clear, we're not removing the decent fans of other clubs. Shayman, Alty Fan etc are all fine and welcome to stay. And we're not against fans of other club per se, it's the dunces who come on and try and antagonise that we've had enough of.
That daytripper donkey will be gone at the end of the season too, just giving him enough rope until then.

On a smaller screen device the pinned threads are all you see when you first come to the site rather than proper threads that have new posts.

You might have already done this but would it be worth amending the yellowboard Ts & Cs pinned thread and title to include this information

Nice one Suede and TRE. Agree totally. The level of debate and discussion on here plus the humour on multiple topics is excellent. It doesn't need to be diluted by juvenile wind up merchants.

Just updating this with some housekeeping.
We have gone through the members list and cleared out several hundred posters. These are generally people who haven't logged in for at least the past nine months (some were going back years). Those accounts have been deleted. There's a few who haven't logged in for ages but we recognise the names or know them personally, those accounts are still active.
Next on the list are those who regularly log in but rarely post. We don't expect everyone to be posting on here all day but if you have an account please contribute. Otherwise you're just eating through the ad-free views and not giving anything back. We'll give it a few weeks but anyone who is regularly logging in and not contributing after that time will have their accounts deleted. We can see exactly when each user last logged in and when they last posted so it's not a difficult task for us.
For clarity, we're talking about people who post once every three or four months, or not at all. If you contribute even once a week, that's fine. We totally get not everyone has the time/capacity to be on here all the time.
Finally, we've removed a couple of people this week. We don't like doing it, especially with established posters, but will do if we think it's necessary. TRE and I own this board, spend a lot of time running it and spend a lot of money hosting it and providing the service, ably supported by the mods. We have total discretion over who comes on here and who stays on here and will remove people if we want to. We try and be patient and lenient but it's not a democracy. As Christine used to say on Marions, posting is a privilege, not a right.
As I've said loads of times before, this is a great little community. It's by far and away the best place to chat about County and the quality of discussion about all topics is testament to the members on here. And let's not forget that we're representing County on here too. Plenty of fans of other clubs, journalists etc come on here. Let's give a good account of ourselves.
✌️

Appreciate the hard work that yourself & TRE put into keeping this place going. It really is a valuable outlet for us to express our opinions on all manner of topics as well as County related stuff. The debates are often highly interesting with people expressing a broad range of views, of course there's disagreements between posters & sometimes the temperature rises but that occurs on nearly every messageboard & in the main here, it's kept mostly civil. It's a good community with a lot of help offered from things like streaming, transport to games, & spare tickets etc which makes this board invaluable at times. Long may it continue May I ask mainly out of curiosity, Why was bluesince52 deleted so quickly? His post the other day seemed fairly tame (unless I missed something!) I'm presuming it was someone who was banned already but found a a way back? & will Maximus be allowed back soon? In the main I enjoyed his posts especially the articles about doing games around Europe & South America.

Long may it continue Thank you, much appreciated. bluesince52 was deleted as we've reason to believe he's somebody who has previously been on here under another name, it wasn't anything to do with the content of his post. I agree with you, it was pretty tame - although not sure I'd have posted it myself. As for maximus, it's up to him. If he wants to change his tune and stop with the personal digs then he can stay. If not, he'll be quickly gone again. Either way, he's off for a few weeks. Same goes for anybody. Personal digs at any other member aren't tolerated. Ultimately, and as I said above, it's mine and TRE's party. And the vast majority of the time it's a pretty good party. You're all invited and welcome for as long as you want but if you act up you'll be told to leave.

Thanks for the explanation, I thought that was the case & couldn't agree more about the personal digs. There's ways of expressing an opinion even in anger or disagreement without resorting to it being personal.

I've no idea what's gone on 're Maximus but I did think one or two of his posts at weekend, raised some eyebrows as being out of character.
Max, if you're reading this, please take this as a very friendly arm around the shoulder and take it easy on the personal stuff. I've known TRE personally for years - he was my best man when I married Wendy in 2012 - so I know he's a very tolerant person. I don't know Sue quite as well but I do know you must have overstepped a mark with them to get a yellow card on here.
I for one love your posts. You're Argentina blog alone has given me the drive to go there myself next year.
Have a little chill out mate. I would hate to see you get a red card. I'm sure, and I hope, I speak for many of us on YB who really enjoy your posts of games and places afar.
As they would say in B.A., disfruta de una cerveza y vuelve pronto 😉 Malc.
