Hello

A place to chat about anything thats not football related. Most of the threads in here are completely pointless which is why people keep coming back and back. As the forum title suggests, feel free to make any post you want on any subject you wish. It also has Adult jokes (so be warned) which is the other reason people keep coming back.

Hello
It's been a long time since I've posted on here
I recognise usernames but for the life of me can't remember who some of you are (might have to reread the welcome posts) worst still I've probably got some of you on facebook :lol: :)
so remind me who you all are and to those who I don't recognise hello from me to you.
Hope you're all ok
Have a good day.

For me, it was incessantly. Remember getting a few warnings because people thought I was just spamming every thread to get my post count up. :D

Oh and 9k of those are probably Prediction League/Word Association thread posts :D

That word association game should make a comeback. I'd enjoy that. The posting game floats a lot of people's boats, but just can't "get it" at all.

Are you both back posting for a while?

And did people throw the toys from the pram as soon as it got heated; like it does these days? That's the reason as to why it's quiet on here. There a too many people these days who can offer up big opinions, but haven't got the backbone to receive counter opinions. That's my opinion anyway!! :D

You should start a new "THIS IS MY OPINION" section, and only people with a "backbone" should apply! That should get some heated discussion back on the pages. Nothing wrong with a good heated discussion.

Only two rules:

1/ "You are talking absolute fkn Shyte mate " ....... Allowed
2/ "You are talking absolute fkn Shyte you complete tw@t"...... Not allowed.

I could start a topic right now after listening to an absolute fkn tw@....... Sorry, (not allowed) guy on The Jeremy Vine show on Radio 2. Regarding the German air disaster.
He said cabin crew shouldn't be taking days off for emotional reasons, they should "get on with it"......., I disagree wholeheartedly with this guys opinion.

Maybe this new "opinion" section is a bad idea, Crazy. Strike that.

there were many heated discussions where toys were thrown but thats what made it interesting at times :lol:

This section (in the simplest terms) isn't the same (as say four or five years back) due to certain names that no longer participate.

You maybe got your own (as in whoever is reading this) suspects list but as a recall, people like Brendan in Melbourne, ATB, Helen 83, Astrocomet, Hatch, Diddy Dubz, Frankie, Valaae, etc.

I was a part of it also but left the forum for two and a half years due to other events and on return, the aforementioned names, had, - by and large - not returned and gone their seperate ways.

Guess times change and people move on. It's just the way it is

Never said they were indecent. There's just not the same camaraderie as before. Although as stated I think all this f**king social media has something to do with it. The aforementioned names were a lot more prevalent at a time when it was unheard of, or even in it's formative stages. I think the bottom line is things were better back then and guess being honest wish you could go back to how we remember it. Time doesn't always work for the better.

Got to say I don't like a forum that's overly busy. Kind of makes things awkward when you've got hundreds of people on at the same time and new threads starting left and right. Obviously the more people that participate, the more new topics will be born, and it gets to a point where the pages only resemble a mess.

In the seven years on here we've never had more than say nine or ten people at any time (except for very rare occasions) , that goes for the main soccer index and miscellaneous sections inclusive so regulars are going to know what to expect. As before, would ideally want it that way and doubtless it makes moderation duties easier with less to keep focus on. You can only imagine how hard it would be to keep track of hundreds of users, each day, every day, and keeping to the confines of acceptable behavior.
