Stagsnet has always been like this. Not saying its right or shouldn't change but its not just a recent issue.

It's the problem generally with faceless commication added to by being a very opinion based subject matter. As someone else said, face to face two opposing views can usually be shared in a much more constructive and accepting way.

Without wishing to name names there are certain individuals who get personal all the time, often in an abusive way. While ever they are allowed to carry on and not grt banned, nothing will change.

I miss playing the sheep as much as they missed playing us when we were in t'pit up to our neck for five years. I certainly don't want to be playing em anytime soon, as for certain it'll mean we'll be playing Kings Lynn, Wealdstone and Boreham Wood etc too, and that'd just about be :wave: MTFC

Mods - could you please delete any comments that are purely abusive/retaliatary etc and without any reference to Stags? The negativity is unpleasant for most of us and deters some for posting anything. Just as bad, it gives a highly undesirable impression to any visitors to this forum and reflects badly on our club.

Yes some of the name-calling gets a bit much, but lets face it, without their input this forum would be a ghost town.

people saying the only reason they don't post is because of the abuse it's utter tosh. They wouldn't post even if these users were banned, thus the forum would be dead.

If you don't like it, foe them, and prove you'll start posting, its literally that simple!

Maybe if the name calling and sniping stopped
We might get more younger fans posting .
What some people dont seem to understand is that
football is more of a family sport now.
So more familys will be coming on here, but
With all sniping and name calling it will put them off
Letting there kids post.

Banning people on forums must be a last resort, but getting personal and nasty is a non=starter. and constant back biting is a real turn off, so lets stick to football.
and anyone giving money to Mansfield Town is a supporter,

I don't understand why people don't just block them? It's not hard. There's one particular poster who likes to name call and ruins most threads. I've just blocked him and I don't see his posts now unless I click on them.

But you're right about it not being a new thing. Remember Wolfie and Hully? If people think posts are fretting hijacked now, they weren't around then :lol:

It can't be easy for the mods dealing with mental health issues and trying to be inclusive.
Perhaps they have to think BLM.

Why do they have to think BLM (or KLM as other airlines matter also). Moderators are there to ensure the rules of the board are not overstepped not to push an agenda. Sport should be, as repeatedly stated by the FA and the IOC, apolitical.

Why do people have to post insult after insult and tear down, often with construct or a well thought rebuttals, another’s opinion or argument?

Treat this forum as you would say having a pre-match or post match discussion with mates friends or family. You would not not say the same things to someone’s face that would post on here for fear of offence. Or even better still getting flattened.

Apologies are just as easy to type, as I have done in the past. It’s all part of healthy discussion and brings us closer together as Stags fans or we end up losing posters such as Edders.

And to be fair some of the best posts are the typed the following day, ‘forgive me I was drunk last night’.
