WW is one of the most informed itks in here yet he doesn't always follow the company line or party doctrine.
He dissents. But he always dissents with reason and rational argument.
Set him free.
This is totally unfair. The man is one of the most passionate posters on here.
Everything he says, he can back up with sound and clear logic, not just empty rhetoric.
He worked for the club itself for 14 years, and has been a paid-up member for 27 years.
All of his posts are informative, entertaining, enthralling, and insightful.
I hope he's safely ensconced in the Ecuadorian Embassy.
What a huge shame and I really do not agree with any sort of penalty whatsoever.
If I could stand outside the Saintsational HQ, I would stand there with a placard for the whole 2 weeks
with a placard saying "Free White Winmar"

Re: White Winmar Ban 2 Weeks
We do not do things on Opinion because if we did then he and some others would never get banned and others would be banned regularly!!!
We only measure warnings against the actual rules.
Besides formal warnings we issue PMs to try to adjust behaviour to try to avoid people receiving bans.
In this case the poster had received a formal warning and several PMs after his first severe breach and knew he had to be on good behaviour but instead clearly breached the rules 4-5 times in 36 hours. Now only 2 additional warnings were issued before he automatically received a two week ban for 3 formal warnings in a 7 day period. We moderate and admininistrate to the rules.
Yes it may be time to review and revise the rules on several fronts.
It has been 3 years since we have done so.

The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

I don't think so, WW has issues, he needs to work through them in the next 2 weeks.derby Street wrote:On that basis White Winmar should immediately be reinstatedcitywest wrote:This is good news in my opinion. I have had nasty exchanges with this poster.BackFromUSA wrote:Hi all

WW can go back to the back bench and work on his strategy to over take the top job (Matt Finnis) in a spill.

I think he should mount an appeal.

Re: White Winmar Ban 2 Weeks
Can I ask the specifically why?
No judge and jury, me, and I haven't been 'all over it' in recent times, but the limited interactions I've had leaves me feeling this is a bit odd - not saying wrong, just odd.
