hesi Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 To be fair and balanced, there are quite a few morons and bigots over there, but some very good posters, who I enjoy reading, such as Tasman Man, Tauhei Notts and The Torch, who I know is associated with the Hawera racing scene, so probably knows quite a bit of the background to the Kiwi story. Not limited to those 3, quite a few other interesting posters, but the lunatics do tend to run the asylum over there. Hopefully some of them will start contributing on here.....not the lunatics please Some awesome new initiatives underway here, that may make a few think twice, and as a few have said, there should be no reason why people who want to can't contribute to both sites. A site does not own it's members, those people have free choice to post when and where they want 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hesi Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Better hurry up with that upgrade that's been coming for about 12 months, before the majority of posters disappear. Quite simply, most people just want to post about racing, without being abused or micro managed and have as many others as possible do so also, so there is a strong and healthy interchange of information and viewpoints....... and a fun environment The less that happens, the more they will look elsewhere. Upgrades or Fiji trips won't resolve that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashoka Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 wally, It has affected me. I have been racially vilified and libelled by an anonymous poster on this website. I realise that people have legitimate reasons for not posting under their real name and am always curious as to what those reasons might be. The price of liberty is said to be "eternal vigilance". If people are reluctant to post under their real identity, then that concerns me I want to live in an open and democratic nation in which, unless they are criminals, people are unafraid to state their honest beliefs and be responsible for what they say and do. It is not the actual abuse that concerns me here. It is the abuse of the gift of anonymity that is the issue for me. It is one thing for a website owner to take the seemingly "high road" and state that they will protect the identity of the posters on their website. It is quite another when doing so protects a bigot and liar from being held accountable for their bigotry and lies. A fundamental principle of English justice is the right to know one's accuser. That is not the case here. Cheers. Ashoka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the particular case that you are referring to there was no identifying information to pass on even if that information was known to the administrators. As soon as moderators were notified the offending material was removed. As I understand the subsequent process involved the Harmful Digital Communications process with which BOAY fully met its obligations. The case manager from Netsafe was quite clear that BOAY and myself had met all that was required. We currently have an example of where the personal details of a member on BOAY who used the same username on another site was released to a previous owner of that other site. That information has been used to create issues for this site and the member. Fortunately the perpetrator is not as clever as they think they are and the trail is easily followed. BOAY will respect the right of any individual to remain anonymous and will respect their right to privacy. We know that the same can't be said for other forums. We have a process in place to remove offensive posts and although not perfect is effective. I can assure you that no administrator on this site will exhibit any hypocrisy in the application of the rules. Cheers Chief Stipe 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
