I’d always kind of thought, well so what? It’s not “real”. But I’m sure the stress response is almost identical to it happening in person. Perhaps worse, because you can always give them a slap in real time if that works. *Btw...Abuse is NOT free speech. Neither legally nor philosophically. (Aimed at the thread not the post!)

Listen I won't lie - @@owlstalk can be very obstinate, but this line he is taking here is to protect people as because as a community we have been here before. People have been targeted, and things have gone sour. I should take my own advice here sometimes, but log off and come back another day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capetownowl Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 a period when Owlstalk was the hot bed of sedition. The 4 bills were tag teaming to create discourse. Conspiracy theories were ripe. DA was abusing fan and Grandad was a breath away from incarnation. Neil held fast in his refusal to grass on posters. owlstalk was registering 1000s post per hour.

I have read up on it ... and I can still have free speech ....the responsibility is for a court to judge me and there I would take my chances No I'm a moderater of this site, you don't have the right in this country so say what you like without repercussions. Free speech with responsibility. Infact true free speech is one of the biggest fallacies out there. In my opinion.

It used to be great for breaking news. But its nothing but abuse. I can almost guarantee withought looking at the thread under Biggs initial tweet, there will be some abuse for Biggs, more than likely about something else. Unconnected to that original tweet. Product of the current social and economic climate perhaps, or am I just excusing behaviour? Edited February 11, 2021 by Maddogbob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed years ago on the internet when people like John Paul McGovern would come on here and post (as himself) and chat with fans, just how people can't handle speaking to people in the public eye We saw the same when Lee Strafford posted more regularly when he was chairman of the club - same thing - people just couldn't get to grips with how to speak to him without trying to call him out, trip him up, name-call etc It wasn't anywhere near as bad back then but the signs were there that the public just doesn't know how to converse sensibly with people of note It's sad but true I've seen it in the music industry too - it's not just football Actors too And we've all seen how it is with poiticians 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
