Again a Policeman : A BIG
reason for their "anonymity" is so that they and their families are safe in their personal lives.
It has been bantered a few times before that modes get threatened, even death threats , , , , so anonymity protects them and their family

You've got to be
f'ing kidding me. A few things. Firstly,
police wear name tags. Secondly, show me literally any historical example of
someone going after the family of a mod on a fishing forum and i'll delete my account. Thirdly, IF you somehow manage to moderate a fishing forum to the point where someone actually comes after your family then you f'd up a long time ago.
You say some colossally stupid things but this is pretty much the best of them.
Dougie, very passionate words, but your comments aren't conducive to a healthy discussion. I believe in one right of reply in the same medium that you have made your statement.
Firstly, I said "anonymity" not
total anonymity. Name tags or badge numbers yes, I never said that Police don't. But their private personal details are protected, hence, anonymity of their private personal details - lives. They deal with some serious offenders and need to be insulated of any reprisals by these individuals , , , , I would have thought that was an obvious given.
Secondly, I never said that "someone
going after the family of a Mod". I said "so , , , , their families are safe". Example to follow.
Thirdly, a historical example of someone going after a Mod and if that Mod was with a family member at that time, then that family member wouldn't be safe either, as they could get caught up in any reprisal to the Mod. So not "going after family members" as you claim I said but as I said their families to be kept safe too.

"This is the threat cantcatchem sent to me"
What a nasty piece of work you are, get over yourself you self righteous piece of sh*t, I know who you are, where you fish, what boat you ahve and what boat your mates have, I live around the corner from the ramp and will find you and put your head through your hull you ******* coward, **** you dog, just a matter of time ****
Now Dougie, that quote came from this thread
viewtopic.php?f=180&t=21656 which was an extension of this locked thread
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=21608&p=284215&hili ... us#p284215
You should know that first thread because you posted on it. And on that thread there was even a mention of possibly the individual being under the influence of ice. Yeah, let's give ice influenced individuals personal information of a Mod, how ridiculous.
So, Dougie, not only was Wolly threatened, if Wolly was with a family member at the ramp and if this individual was "putting Wolly's head through the hull" it stands to reason that that family member is possibly not safe either.
Fourthly Dougie, your comment "You say some colossally stupid things but this is pretty much the best of them", I don't appreciate.
I also don't appreciate "f'ing". That is still swearing, just because you got it through the "Auto-Bot" by spelling it differently, the sentiment of swearing is still there.
