Comes to complain and explores houses on his actual fb page hahah

 

[Mikeymutt]

I quoted "why are house explores even allowed on here" why not its an exploring forum aint it? I can understand there is more implications of family ties etc so can cause more grief but that's just what we do.
Its a bit pointless saying we cant show certain types of places cos it may upset someone , its hardly the English heritage website!

That said I do think admin should implement the rule that they introduced & bin anything that is not "historically or architecturally interesting" as that was agreed on months ago

I don't really do houses now. But saying not much history in them or architecturally interest. I don't really see much of all that in a crane climb either. But that is liked on here. It's all personal preference ain't it.

It shouldn't be personal preference at all, it should be to the rules that we all had massive discussion about 6 months ago & were then written down by admin here

Information - - Residential section going forward - UPDATED FEB. 22 - PLEASE READ | Residential Sites

PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING IN RESIDENTIAL The residential section has had another clean up, and we’re going to be taking a tougher stance with this section going forward. Below are a few guidelines as to what will or won’t be accepted. This is not a definitive list, but should give you an idea...

I don't necessarily agree with it but that's the rules that they unanimously came up with but there is still a lot of houses (prob from myself included) that dont fit the bill.
Likewise I dont post many residentially but will keep doing so long as they allow them.

 

[Exploring with Andy]

Owners of cranes don't cause the same issues for the forum that relatives of deceased (or, it turns out, still living) home owners do.
If it was down to personal preference then I think that section would be gone completely, but people do like it, which is why we're trying to find a balance and allow the ones with historical value to stay.

This has happened to at least 2 people i know personally so god knows how many people are having thier houses broken into by goons every week..

I dont even object to the tresapsssing really. It's parading places round the internet like it's some kind of legitimate hobby that fucks me off.

Try explaining to your mate why people who supposedly have the same hobby as you think it's ok to break into thier home and post pictures of it on the internet..

If your into trespassing in peoples houses then go fill your boots but it shouldnt be allowed to be shown alongside legitimate exploring that has an actual point to it!

Totally agree with the above, the goons just do it for the ratings, the more junk they can find left behind the better for them!
Not sure what you define as a "legitimate explore" though let me know when you find some that doesn't involve trespassing.

Am I correct in saying it’s views and members that keep this site going ?

Yeah what I mean mate everyone likes different things in exploring. Just some things are not for others.

Pretty sure its money, actually.

I totally agree with you on the problems that arise from houses. I have done some myself but just feel wrong if I was to do one nowadays. Plus everyone is doing them at the min and they cause most of the drama. I guess I mean from a neutral point that the architectural interest and history would be no different to a climb crane. I do like to see pics from climb cranes, but just not for me. And houses don't bother me either seeing them. I would sooner see industry or military on the forum all the time

ahh ok so it’s just donations. So even if their was lots more posts And reports it wouldn’t financially benefit the site .

 

[Speed]

Even if views do benefit the site it's clearly not run with 'views' as a priority. Were not an YouTube channel..

Theres a line to be drawn clearly but the current idea that it's all about 'architecture and historical importance' misses the point entirely. Dont get me wrong we should have standards that means 60s bungalow explores get deleted simply because they are dross but the real problem isn't how interesting the posts are it's that the exploring of houses is bringing the hobby a bad name and is making what is already quite morally wishy washy activity totally undefensible to normal people.

Theres plenty of nice architecturally pleasing and historically important houses out there that are still peoples homes unfortunately so using that as a criteria doesnt address the issue.

I'd like to impose rules along the lines of 'dont be a dick' but people just dont get it. You give an inch and people take a mile.

We do, you should see the amount of shit we do actually bin. The residential forum has nearly 100 pages of shit that we have deleted and that you guys cant see lol

Fair comment, good work.
in respect to @Down and beyond comment I assume that more view = more money from advertising, is this & donations actually how the site is funded?

I would imagine it's a mixture of the two. So the more who view it the more likely the chances to respond too adverts. I try to donate when I can.
