Trolls Go Easy
2 years 6 months ago
We all love the sport of horse racing and sometimes we emote from our pockets, But perhaps we can all be nicer. I have been following the forum for many years. While i dont contribute, i am on daily, looking for selections and news - not all the negativity. This weekend, I saw someone named Sheik make some interesting comments on the forum and it made me think. I dont have to add to the moans, groans to enjoy the platform. Here are a few examples (Shared by the same people) - Vicky is annoying on course, Brandon is an a%$#%$creeper, Brandon is this and that, the commentators are bad, the studio presenters are not good, there is something sinister with Paul Peter, 4Racing is Useless etc etc etc (Not verbatim but you get the message) I get there is lots to change and lots to do, but i do think everyone has made progress in this sport and the progress will go on. We live in tough times, in the pocket, tough times in the country and overall things can be better. Constructive feedback is always great, but attacking people can be handled better. Lets work together to promote, uplift, give chances and just spread positivity
Happy Holidays.

Credit to the man. He managed to compress a number of the issues (many of which have not been addressed) into one paragraph.
It took the rest of us years to get them all out there.
His comments might have had even more merit if he had posted under his own name.
For me racing is beautifully summed up by the result of the Guineas on Saturday. The winner paid R1 for a place on the Tote. So racing continues to vacuum its customers and (probably) has no intention of ever attempting to deliver a fair deal to punters. Caveat emptor.

That should have been the first thing these new okes done.
It just doesn’t make sense to risk money just to get your money back.
They have been told this for many many years but they just stick their finger up to us.
And I have done the same to them,I haven’t given the tote one cent for a long time now.
I honestly couldn’t care less if they cease to trade.

In the era of social media and instant access to information u either step up or u will get crucified. There is no where to hide if u in the public eye or a national operation.

Banter is different from trolling Muhitman... You get me?
The original poster, types and uses short sentences, like a well known "troll"

We have to keep repeating this every few months and thank you for the many constructive and helpful posts on the site that are in the majority.
We all have our preference who we feel are the best presenters and callers etc.
It's your prerogative if you want to share your views.
We ask that you don't get personal and be constructive.
We do have a REPORT button on the site and we view each complaint with an open mind and someone has to make the call between the good the bad and the ugly
Good Punting and posting .
