What is the Canadian scandal?
 

Tell me. I want to know. Damn not talking about scandals on hattrick!

How do you know there's a Canadian scandal?

HTZINE has it listed. But they won't tell us exactly what it is.

It was also brought up some in the Canadian conference with MOD-Buggle and Mounties(The canadian national team coach) getting into it. Mounties told him to resign, someone said everyone against MOD-Buggle to resign followed by Mounties saying half of canada's owners would leave then. Drama.

Basically what has happened is MOD-Buggle has banned a coach from something that was said OFF of Hattrick in a forum about Hattrick.

So we are talking about a third party site HT has no control over, and it was after MOD-Buggle had goaded the coach into attacking him on the Forum, which the MOD ran to a GM and had the coach banned

This set it alllllll off.

You can read it here, http://www.htzine.net/archives/000524.html

and click on the comments, it becomes even more clear on what has transpired so far

WOAH! talk about something taking big proportions in my own country and I didn't know anything about it...

I don't really care, as I almost never visit the conferences, but I'm not sure somebody bannign somebody else for comments on an offsite board is right, but I won't get involved in that crap...

But, the important question is: was it all handled politely with lots of "eh" and tipping of large brimmed hats of people in mounty uniforms while drinking Molson? ;)

SI

Or Labatt's!!! Can't stand Molson, gives me diarrhea and then I have to take imodiums :p

If you really want to see what this is about (it's the typical "boy meets boy", "boy mouths off to boy", "boy can't take heat and runs to mod", "mod bans boy", etc), look at the "your comments (34)" link at the bottom if you want the rest of the story. Apparently it involves a trigger happy mod and some guys who like to antagonize him getting banned and fined somewhat unjustly. I don't know the whole story, but it reads like a soap opera, should matter to those involved, and maybe the Canadians, but that's about it- sounds like that mod doesn't really belong as a mod, tho.

SI

Well seeing as the only side to this story being told is the one of the people doing the complaining, I am reserving judgement. If a Mod is using his powers wrongly, I feel the HTs will remove them from the said Mod.
