    Yes but how long for? When you going to let him back?
    He shouldn't be allowed back. Why spoil the board for people who have him on ignore which means the threads don't make sense.
    That's punishing the other posters, not him.
    I've never put anybody on ignore, came close with him though.

    I think his first ban literally lasted years (probably 4/5. Someone else might remember).

    I doubt they’ll be a third chance.

    ‘The worst horrible individual this bbs has ever had the displeasure of allowing to post’ coming from the guy who talks Ill of the deceased. Hemmsy might have his opinions which aren’t to everyone’s taste but he’s nowhere as nasty as you. Some people haven’t forgot.

    I think this is best for all parties. It is a shame in some ways because he does a lot of homework on the game and has a lot of knowledge. It is this side that lets him down and it is clear it is not something he is able to regulate.

    Would agree with that. His opinions on football, the actual game, are often substantiated better than a lot of posters on here. But the obsession with individuals, the foraging of facts to support an opinion rather than letting facts speak for themselves, and what we’ve seen today, are where the issues are.

    Wow, mate. Some of the stuff that gets said on here, and that’s your reasoning for banning him.

    Not sure if it's been posted anywhere else yet but seen this from Brent on Twitter.

    Interesting to see him now distance himself from those who posted the tweets in question yet it was him that said they were the ones involved in the deal. Still very confused by it all.

    Yeah it's ********. And regardless of the tweets it is still a morally bankrupt ponzi scheme.

    Ya know what.

    I'm half tempted to reach out and do them a deal.

    Donate a grand to me, and I'll use that grand to do whatever I need to do as join hex. But I don't add anymore, I use the grand they give me.

    And report everything I have to do once joined....

    He's being selective. I assume he's referring to Daniel Malpas, not KuqiCouture, who for me is the real problem. He personally thanked KuqiCouture for getting the deal over the line, and he was also on the QA. The statement means nothing to me.

    I appreciate that he has addressed some of the concerns and to be fair, I haven't seen him post anything offensive personally.

    I still don't want us to be sponsored by this scam of a company/whatever it is though.

    Yeah that 'official or legal capacity' bit is doing some heavy lifting.

    I’d like to see him call on his cult members to call out all similar tweets.

    And then I can wait for the club to investigate the ins and outs of Hex as a business model.
    But yeah also to point out who he is calling out.

    I've been one of the few people that's tried to fight his corner, and I've tried several times to encourage him to think differently. I just don't think he's physically capable of tempering his approach. Whether it's ADHD, Asperger's, autism, I dunno. It's a real shame because I still genuinely don't think he's malicious. But he's clearly unable to stick to the rules, and today's antics were even too much for me to try and defend.

    " the tweets were made by 2 people not associated with HEX or the HEX sponsorship deal" ???

    But the three guys on the YouTube video stated this Kuqi bloke was the money man. That appears to be the opposite of the statement above.
    More fog.

    There was an offer on one of the twitter threads on Saturday giving away free HEX tokens to Barnsley fans

    We know very little about our fellow posters and how important or otherwise this Site may be to them. For that reason I hope Admin didn't just 'dump' Higgy.

    We have a duty of care.

    He was very knowledgeable about BFC and an excellent supporter.
    I hope Admin raised their concerns with him about some of the things he was saying in his messages
    A warning or yellow card would have been sufficient initially.

    If someone had a concern the facility is there to raise that concern with Admin on an individual basis. What has happened here is someone started a public witch hunt and many others piled/bullied in - some of those who piled in need to look at the stuff they are posting!
