Hello everyone.
As you will already be aware from previous requests from moderators we have had some concerns in regards to the content, persistent trolling, abuse and thread hijacking in this section of the forum.
The moderators who spend their spare time (for free) to moderate the whole of PNE-Online are spending a unacceptable amount of time having to deal with reports from users (not all of whom post frequently), repeated DM's to moderators from a handful of posters, and generally dealing with the same issues over and over again.
PNE-Online has been around for a very long time and many of the posters in this section have added value to the site for the same length of time.
One of this forums unique strengths is the popularity of the non football sections. However, it is getting to the point where we may have to close individual threads or even close this section completely temporarily. We do not want to ban users and especially users who make a financial contribution to the upkeep of the forum, however unless there is a sense of self moderation in this section we will be left we little choice.
These are strange and unsettling times, we do not and never wish to curtail debate on ANY subject but I hope users can take this post in the manner it is intended and we can all carry on enjoying the great debate which has kept this forum alive.
Stay Safe and Keep Well.
