This software is getting VERY clever.

A bug which randomly affects a users account might be plausible, but for the same bug to also then affect the same users newly created account while also leaving every other account unaffected? Very implausible.

Mods, can you see why people might struggle to believe your version of events at this point? It does seem like you are intentionally stopping NS from posting. If that's the case, it's ok, you just need to be honest about it.

He could post on the other board if he wants to say put his side of his story surely .

Barry said, it’s not him.

Not him trying to set up another account, or not him removing them?

Interesting. So what happened mods, did someone register with NS username and you rejected their account?

NORTHERNSOUL2 isn’t Barry.

I asked last night, as I noticed it, he said it isn’t him.

What a shame. During lockdown jumping to conclusions is the only exercise some of us get.

It still doesn't explain why the Northernsoul2 account appears to have been deleted. Mods did you just assume it was our NS when you saw it?

DOES ANYONE GIVE AN ACTUAL [censored] BAR KESSLER-MULLEN?

MY CAPS LOCK ARE STUCK ON MY PHONE TODAY ,I HAVE WOKEN UP AFTER MY NIGHT SHIFTS WITH NORTHERNSOULITUS, SO HOPING THERE IS A SPECIAL VACCINE FOR IT...I MIGHT LOOK ON YOU TUBE AND MAYBE ONE OF THE CRACKPOTS ON THERE WILL HAVE THE ANSWER?

I noticed the account last night.

It’s possible the mods did it to test, lightbulb did it to test or someone did it for a laugh and the mods recognised the IP address and deleted the account.

I’m sure Barry would admit it was him.

More of a damp tampering than a smoking gun...

You might not have any self respect, but some of us don't like being treated like fools. If they don't want NS posting that's fine, it's their forum and can do what they want, but they need to be honest about it. The mods are being extremely disrespectful towards to their users by expecting us to believe a very implausible story that they have no idea why an account and posts were deleted. It's been 25 days since the issue was first brought up and they still don't seem to have done anything about getting NS set up with a new account. At what point do you say the mods clearly don't seem to want NS on here? And are you happy for them to treat you with contempt?


Mods, did you delete/reject the northernsoul2 account? Did you think it was our NS?

Now there's a Northernsoul3 account......Mods, wtf is going on?

People maybe having a laugh, you should try it sometime.
Who really gives a [censored].

Kessler, do you suffer from paranoia?

I was trying to resurrect the Soul, Kes. Using my powers but I failed.

I no longer think I’m Jesus, I did try to exercise the SOUL but that didn’t work either, I’m now unable to walk.

I wanted to see how easy it was to create a new account and if it dropped the name into the new user field, without activation - it does.

I wasn’t the NORTHERNSOUL2, I wouldn’t take any notice of it, it’s a red flag.

For mods: NORTHERNSOUL3 is one I created, I think you’ll see by the email address, just delete.

Self respect my arse. I heard Griffs offering free shots to his first 20 customers. Thought you were going to bother him over there?

It’s still a valid question to ask where NS posts went though.

There’s no resolution.

Is Chris from lightbulb looking into this issue as well?

That may be true Mullen but this is getting bloody embarrassing now. Surely you must agree that just because some people aren’t as bothered as others doesn’t mean they have no self respect?

Absolutely DB, agree with you.

Nothing to do with self respect if you agree with something or not.

Bit odd reading about it and complaining and commenting complaining we are wasting our time, the ones that do that.

The only self respect being lost is those twos. I don't know what sort of employment their in(not bothered really). but they seem to have a lot of spare time to scour the web for conspiracy theories.

Surely you must agree that just because some people aren’t as bothered as others doesn’t mean they have no self respect?

That wasn't quite what I meant.

The mods story seems really implausible. A lot of you seem to agree with me and believe that NS has in fact been banned, because you say it's up to the mods who they allow. It is up to them, but they have repeatedly denied banning him. So if you believe he is banned then logically you also believe the mods are lying to you. I think that's very disrespectful. And if you put up with that rather than call them out on it, then it does look as though you have no self respect.

I really can't understand why anyone is bothered about one of the most despicable people i have ever come across is not posting on this board or why they think admin should explain why. Surely if admin have advised NS why he isn't allowed to post that is between them and him.

If anyone has spoken to him, why not just ask him and see what he says and you post on here the reason he gives if you are that bothered.

Not if they are saying on here that they have no idea why he can't post. If they have banned him, it's not appropriate to then claim otherwise.

Kess I have respect for myself and others including you but the more you bang on about it you're in danger of losing that respect.You've been advised on numerous occasions to drop it. Your basically calling the Mods liars imo. If that was me I'd be having a chat with my solicitor

Done - Agree

I agree with a lot of what NS says about football, I enjoy reading it, I don’t enjoy reading or agree with quite a lot of the other stuff NS posts and he knows that.

I’m not bothered about NS being banned or not, he says he’s blocked and posts gone.

There was a post about EWM, that has now cane to fruition, I wanted to read about but went. That’s why I got in touch with NS to see what had happened and he let me know.

Their story just doesn't seem very plausible. I've never known any kind of software bug that deletes only one user and all their posts while leaving everyone elses. But if they are genuinely having problems with the software I'm just trying to understand why they haven't set NS up with a new account?

Are you sure you don't fancy another sabbatical ?

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn away and slam the door

Let it go

Maybe. Fed up of this place, it's like only me and mullen actually care about things, everyone else can't be arsed. Apathy.and defeatism rules supreme.

Give this a thought Kessler . If the mods blocked NS for specific reasons then that may be why he cant knowingly have another reason. The mods also wouldn't be able to tell you. Not that they need to anyway . So your best bet is NS via Mullen or hack the board and get 5 years in the state pen.

Hopefully in the next cell to NS

Remember when Kessler said it was [censored] off and never coming back?

A complete load of bull shit as we always knew. Forget NS, if the mods were truly that bothered about banning someone, Kessler would be at the top of the list.

Self respect my arse. I heard Griffs offering free shots to his first 20 customers. Thought you were going to bother him over there?

What on earth are you talking about? No bribery, mine’s an honest board.

Maybe it's one of those superinjunctions, where there's an injunction but they can't even say that

More of a damp tampering than a smoking gun...

My smoking gun reference (on the other board - the mods here like to look in from time to time) was accurate. Thanks to Mullen and Kessler for pursuing this and pointing out the self-respect argument. For me it’s also about integrity, honesty and principles. If you are a person who has principles you will understand why Mullen and Kessler are understandably wary about what we are all being told. If you have no principles you will want shot of their debate asap, as many here are. So consider which side of that divide you are on.

I think we can drop the argument that the software deleted all Northernsoul’s posts and his login as clearly Northernsoul2, whoever started it, was deleted by a Mod. It would be too coincidental that they were both software malfunctions. I also don’t buy that it was a system test as it would have been easier to use systemtest123 or something similar. A wind-up? Possibly. The thing is that the Mods have now demonstrated their preparedness to block any username containing Northernsoul, hence the smoking gun reference.

I'm a lurker on this board these days, the quality of the threads has gone so far downhill it's just not as welcoming or fun anymore. This is for a variety of reasons from the general un-user friendliness of the site itself to the know it all chunts who bore the life out of every thread, the wannabee comedians and satirists who think their comedic value makes them so superior and of course, there's Kes and Mullen. I'm not aquainted with NS other than through messageboards over the years. He's controversial for sure, sometimes totally out of order and a disgrace, other times informative even when some don't care to hear what he says. What I don't get here is, and this is why it seems fishy, the mods have banned him many times before and usually with good reason, why not just say if they've banned him. Now if they have banned him, when he's not posted in god knows how long, then why have they banned him? Fishy? The software bug is as phoney as [censored], why him? why all his posts? Nah....that's BS. So........as boring as Kes and Mullen are......they do have a point!! I'm off back to he lurker's gallery.....ciao....

I am Spartacus.

MRF how would you like it if everyone took that attitude when you got kicked out of BP? If we all just said it's their private property and club they can kick out whoever they like and stop moaning about it? And before you try arguing that's different because you paid for it, you agreed in advance to the terms and conditions and that you might be required to leave. Instead, many people supported you and criticized them for doing that.

Someone said this to me yesterday. People on here are happy to go with the flow but when something happens to them suddenly they want people to get behind them. But how can you expect people to get behind you when you weren't willing to support them? It's like there's a culture of apathy and people don't realize how it harms everyone and benefits no one.

Kessler i walked away not to return...i simply stopped giving a shit...was only way to live and not make myself badly coz of it...[censored] all to do with anything on this board.

There is more important things than football in life kessler....and right now its not to get covid or spread it...and all youre bothered about is someone who is not posting on here banned or not...put that into perspective..so frankly i will say get a [censored] grip

Yes but you still criticized what they did, and so did others. So many people "don't give a shit" when maybe they should speak up more and stand up for what they believe in.

Asking questions about one issue doesn't mean I'm unconcerned about other more important issues. It's not like you have to "pick".

Give it a rest kessler for goodness sake.

Don't read or post in the thread if it doesn't interest you.

............are you sure ?

I thought I was.

Pissing into the wind Kessler i would describe what you are doing..

Best thing mods could do was to close the posts on this subject , but thats just my personal thought on it.

What should I do instead then, just not bother? Stay silent on an issue I feel strongly about?

I don't understand is why you keep reading and posting on this issue. You're clearly not bothered about the issue, you're fed up reading about it. But you keep choosing to read about it, rather than just skip the threads that don't interest you. Why is that?
