Re: ALERT.ALTERING POSTS!!!!!!
I have asked the rugby moderators and admins Taffineastbourne to find out what happened.
I know the post in question as it was reported, but can you pm me with what was edited please?
Thanks
YI

If there were stats in his post, the system would have automatically deleted them due to his well documented objections of statistics.eirebilly wrote:You didnt mention stats in your post did you Taff?
On a serious note though, wasn't me, yes you, couldn't be, guess who?

I was thinking along those line biltong, the system just didnt match up Taff and stats in the same post so automatically deleted them.
Its a phpBB setup, no percentages shall be assoiated with a post from Taff

No, YI Man has to be seen as doing his job as a Founder and pretend that he is investigating this. He is actually in Newcastle now laughing away

The mods have developed an algo that self-corrects blind ignorance - Taff, don't worry if most of your stuff gets altered - think of it as improving!

It doesn't have a parameter for illiterate people Peter, only for statistics.

Can be an aid.Statistically I have enjoyed or been bored by a very large number of Rugby matches.Stats would not make them more enjoyable but could make them more boring.

Re: ALERT.ALTERING POSTS!!!!!!
Me get the impression you are objecting for the sake of objecting.
Do you ever, r have you ever used S Williams or G North or any other Welsh player's try scoring stats when you debate his greatness?
I would hazard a guess you have. Those stats stand proudly in the record books, and yet they don't tell the full story, but they are often used.
We share a record with Wales in regards to Jonah Lomu, he has never scored a try against our nations. It is a stat I have used and some Welsh fans have used.
Yet it suits us to brag that he hasn't scored against us, but the rest of his team scored plenty whilst we were all running around with too much pride trying to stop him.
Stats are there, as much as you negate their use and as much as you fight it, it is and will always be part of the game.
