Hartley Hare Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 As per the thread title. The BBC is cutting its on-line budget by 25% and, as part of the cutbacks, the 606 site is going. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/sporteditors/2011/01/changes_to_bbc_sport_online.html Does anyone here use it? Will anyone miss it? Personally I found it a useful intro to sports-based forums at the time, but I quickly moved on to other sites that had more of a community feel based on specific mutual interests.... like the old DET and this site. So for me it's pretty much obsolete and I can't say I'll miss it. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/5181-bbc-606-forum-closing/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hucknall Ram Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I hated it, My forest brother in law still uses it but there no mods and he says its filled with WUM and loads of the same threads with the same topics.

Hartley Hare Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 That's pretty much how I found it to become, no chance of anything remotely like a reasonable discussion or banter, just loads of WUMs with big spoons....

MrsRam Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I used to read it - posted on it very occasionally but haven't even looked on it recently. Shame it's gone though - it kept a lot of the WUMs busy. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/5181-bbc-606-forum-closing/#findComment-124356 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boycie Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Bring them on! We've got a new set of ban hammers in the mod room. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/5181-bbc-606-forum-closing/#findComment-124358 Share on other sites More sharing options...
