You have the secret old boy. To reply ironically to such a sincere remark is insulting,surely. Purely because I am new on here and don't maybe hold the same views as some of you veterans should certainly not mean I a am lesser mortal than you, nor my opinions any the less valid. Or is this some sort of an elitist deal? A cosy club type of thing? I though the word forum suggested an open debate and exchange of ideas among hopefully like minded people. Or maybe not in this case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The anonymity tends to mean people are a little more extreme in their use of discursive language than they might be in person... Imagine everyone here is entering into the discussion at 11 30 on a Friday night having been in the pub since 5... That should give you a better understanding of the dynamic around here...

Oh, so you can insult me BUT I cant reply in kind then? How does that work exactly?? Seems all very churlish and really school playground behaviour to me. Let's knock the new guy kind of thing. If you lot do it to me, then you're just being pithy, but I f I try to respond, I end up getting censored as some sort of extremist wacko. Pity that. How sad.

If you feel a post has been insulting click on the little flag and it will report it so all the moderators can see and they can decide if anything needs to be done. Eddie meant what is the great forum you had recently as it is not this one. He is not calling you at all. He is the class clown, or he tries to be, and was calling the forum.

That's kinda the blessing/curse of the internet... If you wanted a warm/cuddly response try a Fulham forum... I hear they're very nice... Lovely ground on the river accompanied with an understanding that they're playing WAY above their level seems to promote pleasantness... If you get upset about what people have to say about your views on the internet you won't survive long around here... You need to be able to take it with a large handful of salt...

I would really like to know as there seems to be some inconsistency.... Yes. There's @David (him big cheese ownum site make load of wampum), followed loosely by moderators (of which there are many thousands, it seems), then regular posters in possession of less than 16,395 'likes' (a figure chosen quite arbitrarily), then n00bs, then gumps, then me. I will take the piss on occasion - please do not take offence. Oh, also look out for @uttoxram75, or 'Utch' as he is known. He's the site's resident Stokie, with absolutely no sense of humour. if he hasn't had a belly full of real ale and chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of witty puns .Lots of exchange of ideas and opinions. Lots of filling space whilst the latest news breaks and much anticipation and hopeful probing . You will get the general feel over time. But whatever you do DO NOT insult B4 !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we have players who are on fixed term but full time contracts... People on full time contracts. I do get paid up to 12 weeks but only after losing 3 waiting days and it's only been the last couple of years that we have been paid that. But I do know quite a few people that only get SSSP.

So no wonder you were all pitching in with the barbed p...takes. Too good to miss I reckon. Must've seen me coming. (oops!!) So how does anybody actually make serious dough from having a bunch of virtual (very punny!!) strangers sniping at each other? Would love to know the real dynamics/mechanics. So how about somebody setting up the bare knuckle version...... now THAT would be really interesting, eh? A sort of punks ( **as in non-conformists) with puns job. **Before I get reported again.
