Cyprus 44 used to be such a nice, friendly and informative place - chuck in a bit of humour here and there, it was easily the best "board" for all things TRNC.



But now, its full of double (or maybe treble / quadruple identities), back biting and general nastyness........





Whats needed is some "no nonsense" moderation - abide by the rules or "your out on your ear" - no wrist slapping on the forum - break the rules one time and 1 month ban - break them again and "on yer bike"....



AJ for all his faults did an OK job - but Cy44 now feels like a class room full of kids when the teacher is away.



anyway, if it carries on for much longer - i'm out of here for good, never to return.......



No more "joke of the week" no more telling folk how it is, no more "garry monger and his missus" and no more "classic" posts (who could forget 1137, 2765 and of course 3245 - i'm chuckling as a type).....



OK mods - i've had my say - pull your finger out and lets get this mess cleaned up..

The awful responses to NN's post, really sums up and reinforces his point and only reflects badly on the posters themselves.

Hector only 8 posts ago NN was posting things like



"you stupid ex london kebab shop working bearded bafoon....... i dread to think what your missus looks like if she can put up with a moron like you"



and now is bemoaning how unfriendly the palce has become and the lack of moderation and punsihment for people who break the rules. It is not like that the above example is particularly aytpical for him either in my view.



I do not know about you but it seems quite bizzare to me.

I agree. The awful, petty and often spiteful postings does nothing but harm to this forum and the reputation of expats in NC. Perhaps that's what the intention is?

NN I got bad news

just read the rules of a new forum

I was going to suggest for you



"Those that continually bring negatives to the board regardless of subject will fall foul of the ‘yellow/red card’ system.

The board is not a place to post jokes.

The board is not a chat forum and any personal chat is likely to be deleted if it it runs into more than two posts on one thread and if it has nothing to do with Cyprus."



Shame for you ,sounds like a fun place.

Personally i can't stand NN, but he is part of the 44 institution. ( sorry nick but i know the feelings mutal)

The same place which used to be fun.

Hopefully when all those persons who find themselves in a position of being better than the rest of us will be gone, the normality may come back.??



Sad to see AJ go, a great loss to 44. I would also be sad to see Nick go.

NN there is no doubt we all have been a little bit naughty on the forum from time to time but i cannot abide double identities of which there are lots, this inevitable leads to insults and syber attacks from cowards and whimps ! you can often spot them by the style of writing and words commonly used. Perhaps photo ID's from passports scanned etc would solve it and pictures mandatory with any refusals denied membership but i expect thats too complicated regards Barry

It still is. Its just the posters and moderators that have changed.



Just a quiet observation, thats all!
