You're quite new here. Is there a difference in treatment of different posters, i.e. Newbies as opposed to veterans? -

If a newbie here, argues with a veteran and has a differing opinion, they are called a troll (incorrect definition of the word).Originally posted by Craic View PostYou're quite new here. Is there a difference in treatment of different posters, i.e. Newbies as opposed to veterans?
Be too mild mannered and get eaten alive, be too forthwright with your opinion and get eaten alive.
So the real question is what tastes better with human flesh, ketchup or bown sauce? Personally, Ive tried that Levi Roots BBQ sauce recently, yummmmmmm !!Comment

So, what you are saying wim121 is that the treatment of a veteran and a newbie is different and that the bias is against the Newbie and towards the verteran.
It can't be good commercially for CUK if Newbies are discouraged whereas veterans are a protected species and can insult newbies all they want without fear of being given an infraction by Moderators whereas Newbies cannot even relatiate in kind for fear of receiving an infraction.
That strikes me as both unfair and not good commercial sense for CUK.
It is like a school where the bullies and the teachers are in league - to the long term detriment of the school.Comment

That's true of any forum / website in the world.Originally posted by wim121 View PostIf a newbie here, argues with a veteran and has a differing opinion, they are called a troll (incorrect definition of the word).
Anyone who is unknown and draws attention to themselves, be it a differing opinion or giving advice that wasn't asked for will be called a troll. They either live with it while continuing to be a member or flounce out to the next forum.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Not to revisit the thread, but all I offered was my view on sexism as that was the subject being discussed, so it wasnt actually trolling ...Originally posted by eek View PostThat's true of any forum / website in the world.

But you are correct, craic may call it unfair, but veteran people always have an easier time than noobs.Comment
