I genuinely think they couldn't care less. Forums don't make them money, sure you get a bit of dosh for clicks based on advertising, but I doubt it is much. And they have a responsibility to moderate too, I mean apart from people having silly feuds, if suddenly your forum became a hotbed for extreme views they, as a company, you could be in bother. I think they definitely closed the non football forum on that basis.
Hello everyone. I stopped getting involved on the Pinkun when they shut off the non football. As Ricardo said at the time it was simply an act of censorship. A fanbase is full of all kinds of opinion, political or otherwise and to prevent fans from voicing their own thoughts on the momentous things happening all over the world and here in the UK is pathetic. Nothing that moderation couldn't solve as many pointed out. It was a decision that I felt showed a degree of immaturity.
I agree with you Morty about your thoughts above. It shows that the Pinkun doesn't give a damn about its supporters. No message on the main site, just a reply to someone on Twitter that it's a technical issue and people are away. No doubt next week there will be a hollow apology.
Nice to see your posts again too. I used to think folk got far too carried away. You may remember me from old but maybe not.
Anyway, it's really good to see so many old posters who've moved over. Hopefully people will give the Pinkun a wide berth ahead.
For the new year here's hoping everyone has a great 2025 (and we end the season well at least).
