Had Enough

perhaps a more common sense no nonsense approach is whats needed in this world.....

I don't hide my views on how I would deal with crime but this thread is not about that.
 
Mick, have a break from it all mate, get someone else in to help out or wait till Roy is back then have a long break.

I have been in your shoes before & its a thankless volunteer task that is never appreciated well enough.

Your the boss, you use your size 10's when needed! :D
 
As a recently new member but an avid reader of the site, I would like to congratulate the mods on keeping this site sensible and a pleasure to read. When I asked for some advice recently when I was coming back 'home' for a break, I could not have been treated better by forum members, thank you. I subscribe, very occasionally now, to a site where I live, manxforums.com and find that as soon as a sensible or decent post starts there is always, to be polite, some ***hole who wants to throw a sarcastic or abusive comment in and when criticised just comes back with 'get a sense of humour or life'. I have wandered a bit, put that down to age, but what I want to say is that this site is excellent and well run, so, if you are thinking of giving up, think again please, I would miss the sensible well moderated forums (and the occasional laugh also)
 
Please allow me to advise those that have upset Mick,

He is far too valuable to the site than the sum of the rest of us, accyweb has been left in his control with almost complete power by Roy because he can be trusted.

I suggest that anyone that may have upset him recently sends a P.M. apologising for the harm they have done to a person that can only be described as a wonderful gentle, man.

accyweb has had good and bad times, Mick has always been here for the rest of us.

Just think, if Mick is forced to continue along this line after over 6 years of none stop Moderating/Administration, Roy might just panic and replace him with me! Now that is a situation that the other mods would not tolerate and we don't need.



Keep Mick, stop giving him hassle, and enjoy accyweb, you know it makes sense.
:rolleyes:

Scrub that.

This isn't the thread for naming names, and causing more trouble.

Fine to mention you feel you were insulted, and hopefully had the problem dealt with succesfully by the moderators. I just think it was totally uncalled for to mention they were one of the longest serving members on here, which points the finger at one of about ten people. Which is uncalled for.

I apologise Entwisi. You are entitled to say whatever you like, and I remember you did receive abuse. It's just that I don't often read those theads it happened in.

Sorry.

Sorry for thread wandering.

Who but St. Michael could keep us in order on here?

No one.

Please stay Mick.

What about if we all promise to start at least one daft thread per week?

:p:D:p

You're quite right.

I reported a thread late last night.

I've just pm'd Mick to apologise incase it was that that sent him over the edge, when he logged on to do his work here this morning.

He is much too valuable a person to lose.

If it was me I'd honestly rather be banned for life, than for him to stop moderating Accy Web.

Sounds like fun Less.

I am not saying you should stay Mick, it is up to you to decide if you want to or not. If you need to stop being a mod then you should no matter what other say. This place would not be the same without you though.

All those who are saying please stay should IMHO leave it to Mick to decide what he wants to do. Only he knows how he feels about it.

I always thought they did it wrong in the Stanley section with the mods being unknown. I can now see that maybe it is a good thing to have a few unknown mods so people who get posts deleted, banned etc don't know who to blame and abuse.

Sorry guys but i am sick and fed up of all the hassle and arguing on here
i am fed up of all the name calling .
i am really thinking of packing it all in
i have been a mod on here for 6 years and in that time i have had to take a lot of flack but took it to help Roy out
but i cant take it anymore i now know how kipax felt when he packed it in
i have really enjoyed it on here and have made a lot of friends but there are a few that just push things to far and this has happend once to often for me.
I have been sworn at, threatened with violence threatened to be sued and a lot of other things.
I have tried to help members and they just give sarcastic comments and try to stir things on site
and i can do without it and i am tired of it we used to have fun but cant do that these days .

I will stay until Roy gets back then have a word i will not leave him short of staff
But i really have had enough.

As a relative newcomer to the site I have put my foot in it on more than one occasion, and been quickly brought to book for it. I heartily respect that we all have different opinions on a variety of subjects, but when it gets personal, it can hurt. Stick with it, Mick, as by far the majority of subscribers clearly respect you for all that you have done in maintaining the site, much to the betterment of all reasonable thinking people who take part.

think that sums things very well,failing that happening i suggest BOOT EM into touch period.:(
 
Neil, while you are right about Mick being the one to decide whether to stay or go, those of us who have asked Mick to re-think are doing so because he is a good and fair moderator......and Mick needs to be told how much we value his work on the forum......all too often the work that is done behind the scenes gets no recognition.

Mick is worth a lot to this site......someone said in a previous post that Mick is the face of Accyweb.....and I believe that to be true.
 
I agree wholeheartedly with Margaret and others.

Mick says he's been abused and insulted, even physically threatened, and I believe him. There comes a point where real unpleasantness gets under the thickest of skins.

I hope, Mick, that the testimony of many of us that you're a nice guy and a very good Mod, makes up a little for the abuse. You don't have to put up with that sort of thing from bullies who hide behind a keyboard. Throw your weight about, too, for a change; ban them.
 
Mick, if you decide to "hand in your notice", who would keep the rowdies on the straight and narrow in the Railway at lunchtimes, also, if i turn up in Accy unannounced and my daughter is not at home, i know i can come down to the Railway and find her in there being looked after by all of you "elders" of Accyweb.
 
As a newbie I don't have much experience on here, but i do know what an onerous task Moderator can be.
i had the pleasure to meet Mick when I was last in Accrington, I have also recieved help when first joining.
Mick, pleae reconsider, ther are A******s everywhere, but there are friends as well.

Excuse me?

He may be threatening to hang up his keyboard but, he can't possibly stop the research, nobody in the Railway does anything except abuse his liver!
 
Whatever would I do in the afternoons if mick went...........I would be left with only Less, Benipete, and David1 (when he comes over) to terrorise.......that just wouldn't be right :( And anyway Mick bruises easier :D
