The thread that looked like it was making some progress at some time re unification? or do I guess that the answer is that we will not be unified and it business as normal?
It was my understanding from JGFC's posting that I was to do with the forum what I would but I have to say that whatever aspirations I have to re-establish a forum where all supporters feel able to contribute it is impossible for me to monitor what appears as it appears 24/7.
The reactivated post arrived on the site when I was busy and I didn't deal with it at that point and I needed to seriously rethink if the forum was worth the effort. When I returned it and anything it generated had gone.
Knee jerk reactions to postings can lead to over censorship and procrastination can leave postings on the site longer than they ought to be - the devil you do and the devil you don't.
It all seems so simple when you post messages on a forum but I can assure you that it isn't when you are responsible for monitoring what appears. It has certainly been a learning experience for me.

If you took 10% of those averagge attendances who look at this or the official site and then 10% of that who post then really we are dealing with small beer here. I may have the numbers wrong but overall in terms of the people concerned it is small.
The overall consideration is does it do anything to make the club better, the team play better or drag the performance down. Answer is no. Yes I accept some reputational damage but again as other people have posted we are not immune to this
So you cant monitor everything and it will go away until someone posts another accusation, which in the big scheme should be less and less.
Postings on football are relevant and I support your stance that a debate of platform is needed as for the other issues, if you ignore a problem long enough it will go away. The more publicity this gets the more it will role so I will follow your stance and ignore and try to relate solely to WUFC
Thanks for your support BKK. I had included a challenge on the statement made by Harvey but cut it out and restricted myself to the football matter.
Its perhaps worth adding to those stats by saying that this represents an average of 11% of our ground capacity if the figure of 5,500 quoted on the Conference South Guide is correct and our total annual attendance equates to 52% of Charlton's average gate.
