IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ON FORUM BEHAVIOUR

Posted: Sat Jun 16, 2012 4:53 pm

We've noticed an uprise in behaviour amongst members and threads that is antagonistic, belittling, insulting, argumentative, condescending, unhelpful or just downright plain rude.

We have always tried to have a softly softly approach on Derry City Chat, and we feel that this has been taken advantage of. Unfortunately, the goodwill has run out and we won't be gently skirting round this behaviour any more. It's completely detrimental to the community that has been building up for years.

So this is a polite warning. NO PERSONAL ATTACKS, OFFENSIVE OR ANTAGONISTIC POSTS will be tolerated going forward. Please think about what you're going to post before you hit submit because we will be issuing suspensions straight away.

Repeat offenders, or those with persistently poor manners and behaviour will result in permanent exclusion from the forums.

If you have a problem with a post on here, by all means let any of the moderating team know, either using the 'Report' function or by Private Messaging. Please do not highlight any problematic posts publically as this will just be seen as another attempt to goad the original poster.

Let's keep this forum friendly and a place to be proud of. Thank you all for your co-operation.
