LOL. Still unable to discuss anything on the discussion thread then.

Please post on topic otherwise the mods will have to delete more of your posts.

Ok. Having had a number of posts deleted (presumably as a result of being reported by someone who thinks they are the guardian of this forum and that only their views count), I'm out of here.

Best of luck everyone.

I haven't reported your posts from earlier, maybe just maybe the mods decided they were unnecessary and off-topic like I said they were. Take care (I guarantee you'll be back though this is an attention seeking "I'm out" post after all).

You are authorised to use much stronger language in this situation in our unwritten constitution.  Although it's clearly a very fluid situation.

Yeah it does seem to have been deemed acceptable to be abusive in response to posts like these, but I'd rather Ozanne just try not to gatekeep the thread whilst simultaneously trying to provoke reactions out of people.

Literally 8 hours ago. Gatekeeping is allowed in some cases it seems.

Calling out someone for using foul language isn't the same as gatekeeping. You meanwhile have to call put crazyfool for daring to come back and post on this thread, because you have some weird vendetta against him. And then say that someone is attention seeking when they say they're out of this thread, in case they do decide to then come back and post, and you'll be able to throw it right back in their face. Classy.

But anyway, if you can just try to behave decently we can move along and continue with the thread.

Can we move on now please … I’m sure some might not agree with how we moderate and my shoulders are broad enough to accept that will always be the case . We are however attempting to make this thread as pleasant as we can given the sometimes challenging subject matter . Having 2 of us moderate means we discuss all reports and will work together to try and achieve the best result for this thread and posters and Efests in a purely voluntary role . Anyway I’m just awaiting being added to the govt list along with the leftie lawyers … those damn leftie moderators on efests

Oh dear, I've pointed out your hypocrisy for gatekeeping earlier on and this is what happens. It's not a great look.

Yes of course. Considering the uproar it's caused, could you explain the case of the deleted posts from earlier please?

I’ve dmd ommadawn as that’s fair when we remove posts and I think we missed it on this occasion that the posts didn’t relate to subject matter and related to inviduals

    • People seem to have got obsessed about 'secret sets' at all festivals this year even when there aren't any spaces other than, in EOTR's case, the usual late Folly sets that 90%+ of the time are from artists who are already playing.
    • To be fair @Superscally barely mentions the running thing. Very quiet about it 😘
    • I guess we'll just have to wait until videos of the shows go up, but the fact that the standing is also greyed out still suggests to me that those sections just sold out out before the others and a blue block just be like 3 tickets left, it's still not concrete proof they never went on sale and if they were never on sale why would they not make it even, if 414 wasn't on sale then you'd think 409 wouldn't be either   
    • Selfish, but I've done the 2 days I'm there.. i'll try to do the rest through the day but might get beaten to it as it's editable....    https://clashfinder.com/s/ape2026/
    • I don’t think the festival automatically ‘need’ to have a female headliner if you have strong female headliners on the Other Stage (which I reckon will be Rosalia and Phoebe Bridgers), perhaps a female legend (praying for Annie, will take Cher), and a few female/mix gendered subs on the Pyramid (maybe London Grammar, The xx). From what I’ve seen of Sabrina, her team prioritises the pay day and I think she will be doing Wembley over Glasto weekend.   One thing I’ve noticed is a lot of the suggestions would be first time headliners and I can’t work out when the last time was that the festival had three artists top the bill that hadn’t topped it before? It seems to be something they like to do to make sure they have a ‘safe’ headliner that will land well with the masses. Plenty of names in that hat that could step back up next summer and should/could be about: Billie Eilish, Adele, Foo Fighters, The Cure, Radiohead, U2…hell, if Beyoncé is really planning to release a ‘rock n roll’ album to complete her Renaissance trilogy, Glastonbury would be a great place to ‘kick off’ that campaign for her.   And there’s always the Rihanna rumour. Her husband (I think) said this week she’s in the studio.
