Just seen a comment on DS saying most over 70s haven’t got internet, based on guessing and data. What a stupid comment , and insulting to those of us who have been on the internet for many years!

There are a few who imagine anyone over the age of 40 is past it - they're probably only about 12 themselves.

Out of curiosity, did anyone else have encounters with the user called Damon Plembury?

I know he was a bit of an irritant in General Discussion but I clashed with him a few times in the high octane world of the Eurovision sub-forum (😂) when he couldn’t accept people had different opinions.

That of course isn’t unusual but he would SHOUT HIS RESPONSES AT YOU in the hope his opinion (the correct one in his eyes) was heard loudest of all. He derailed numerous threads doing that and started getting personal in his attacks.

After he was (eventually) banned, he appeared days later on the Eurovision forum under a new name (that mimicked my user name of all things) and attempted to fit in but didn’t keep up the presence of being someone else for very long as he started SHOUTING AGAIN! 😆

The result? Another ban!

It’s certainly a less lively part of DS without him now, that’s for sure...
 
Could still active DS members who also post on here pass on a message , perhaps by pm, to The Finisher, who was sorry to see I was banned.
Thankyou for your message. I still look at the forums and it’s so frustrating when I see a post that I’d like to respond to, and can’t. I don’t think I said anything warranting a ban , unlike the well known gang on DS who get away with ban worthy posts with impunity.
I do have an idea of who got me and my fellow poster banned, and I’m sure you can guess!
I didn’t know if she/he was damning me with faint praise when he said he can’t imagine me saying anything ban worthy! That could mean I’m too bland and dull to be controversial or perhaps that I’m too nice! Perhaps the Finisher could join us on here while still remaining on DS?

There you are 😂 I got your message thanks, I’m the finisher. I didn’t know this site existed! I was going to PM you here but it seems I’m not allowed yet.

I couldn’t believe it when I saw earlier that you were banned...as was the poster I went to PM to find out why you were banned. Yes I can guess what happened.
Haha no you’re not too bland. I said that because I suspected there had to be more to it.

Happy to find out that all is well with you and that you’ve found a new home. Oh and I’m a ‘she’ :)

Nice to meet you on here ! We can still compare notes. My fellow poster and friend, Llama is here too.
 
Good to know :) I’ve just been having a good read of this thread. Interesting!
I remember your name on there 'The Finisher'

I dunno how long youve been on d.s but the moderation seems stricter these days with threads being cropped and folks getting banned. Though maybe it was always so, though I can't remember it being.
 
About 15 years but I’ve had many breaks in that time. Yes it does seem stricter. Something seems ‘off’.

Nearly as long as me, I joined in December 2003, my time came to an end recently.

This below was probably my most popular thread. Its a topic that's important to me as its caused division in my family and I hope it puts out information that may inform others of the risks in getting involved 👇

Thanks Wolfshead, you too :)

I read some of the thread on DS when it all kicked off over the weekend - before the cull - and I just assumed the references to posts on another site were talking about dogs.

Now I’m halfway through this thread I realise they meant here, and I see that half of DS are also here 😂

In that case you'll never be banned or reported for having a different POV to other users, although, that is rather the point of a discussion forum.
Oh I've had posts reported for sure and I do have discussions it's just that I never let it go so far as to get me banned.
