Is the Ship-of-Fools page on Facebook officially affiliated with the Ship? If so, does a host or moderator run it?

There's currently an apologist for Gordon Cheng (really) there, and the thought occurred that I don't know how that page works.

Thank you.

To the best of my knowledge, The Ship has no overt say of any kind over the various Facebook incarnations that have existed.

To the best of my knowledge, Simon created the Ship of Fools page on Facebook and occasionally shares features from the magazine or elsewhere. I don't know what options Facebook would allow to moderate who posts in response to something shared there without significantly restricting who can view what's shared.

I just checked, I am a member of the Ship of Fools Group. Didn't see anything about Gordon on that or the official one.

Maybe it got eliminated.

Thank goodness.

I guess now my only way to keep up with Gordon is to remain fb friends with him. Not that he posts all that much that I see.

We are evidently several bands; a Grateful dead tribute(yech), a punk band(much better), an indie-rock band (dibs on the girl singer), a folk? band and a couple of comedy troops.
And that is just on the first page or Google.

I don't know what's being said on FB, it's not part of the Ship and as such not really Styx business beyond it's always nice to know people are talking about us.

But, that incident was one of several times when Gordon showed he had opinions different from the majority here. He wasn't banned for holding different opinions.

Actually, there are two groups and I think I'm an admin on the one that Nigel isn't (if that makes sense). It's very confusing as they both have the same name. Neither of them are officially linked to the Ship

On the Nigel Jones page, it seems that several planked people are celebrating their imminent returns on the New Ship.

Someone named Henry Balkwill responded to one Dave Carnegie (who keeps saying he was "Curled Spring" - wasn't that "Coiled"?) with "I assume that when they get their new boards, we'll all be able to come back to the website!"

It's as though a gathering of supervillains is preparing an assault on Gotham City.

So they'll either do the same things over and get banned again, or else they won't do the same things over, and will have rehabilitated themselves. Either way, problem solved.

I treat Facebook with some caution, though it has its uses in helping to maintain contact with far-flung friends and relatives. Must check on the arcane references up thread. Obviously I've missed out on a lot!

Depending on which arcane references that's either some historical examples of jerkish behaviour on the Ship or some whitterings on Facebook. Either way I suggest that you've not missed out on much.

Running around in circles crying "The sky is falling, the sky is falling!" at the possibility of the arrival of someone you don't want to listen to seems to reflect a bit of a siege-mentality. Were I such an unwanted visitor, such a reaction would only encourage me.

People don’t get banned just because we don’t like what they say. It happens because they broke the 10 Commandments. Repeatedly, in most cases.

And if they break them again, they’ll be banned again. Simples.

I like the symbolism though of a New Ship giving Unclean Sinners the chance to start over. And find it rather endearing that they even want to try. I, for one, hope they make a decent go of it this time.

Thought not. Query - do the H&As allow 70x7 contraventions?

Whilst I can see that this is the only sensible technical option, I'm not relishing being around when the Ship's Biggest Tosspots return.

It's all very well being all virtuous and welcoming, but some of these people were really hurtful.

I can only hope that these keyboard warriors won't bother.

It looks, from that page, as though at least some of them are planning on it.

Although I understand both the Church of the Second Chance (we are all sinners) and the technical difficulties of keeping Certain People off the New Ship, perhaps it wouldn't be unreasonable to hold the previously planked to a higher standard. One strike and you're out?

Rook--

And you're drafting responses to potential posts from previously planked Shipmates, aren't you? A file folder for each parson, all folders kept together.

Psssst...you might try the doctor's fire and brimstone sermons from late in the "Star Trek: Voyager" series. Or some Mark Twain--"pen warmed up in Hell" and all that.
