If they were such great lads I'd hardly think they'd slink off so easily ... ... if they clear off, because a few people say things they don't like, they can't have much about them tbh.
Pishes me off that a Mag got me banned for life off their board cause he couldnt handle me taking the pish out of him and he now posts freely on here even commenting on my threads, aka Dorty mag.
Well, if the board was as good as you say, and these posters were such great lads, it's surprising they just left. Surely there must be other reasons.
I broke no rules either but still got banned? He inboxed the mods and requested me to be banned like a bitch. I bet he had a hard 11 years at school i must have created a few flash backs for him.
I wasn't talking about recently ....... read it as 'simply left' if you like. I was asking which of these 'great lads' you mentioned just vanished ..... if the board, and them, were so good why did it all stop?
This is because Albert is a sad beelend who treats the board like his own private little kingdom. The tosser banned me, before a derby match, just in case I said anything that might upset his little clique. Dear me, what a bunch of wimps
Surely the simple answer is, there's no football so not much to post about? This happens every summer or international break, etc. and someone always posts a "the board is dying" thread, then it kicks back into life when the footies back on. You can claim its an off-topic board at heart, but it clearly says at the top "forums -> football -> premier league () -> sunderland". I personally, and I'm sure many on here, come on pretty much exclusively for SAFC news and to hear people's thoughts on player performances, potential signings, etc. No offense to anyone here, but I really couldn't give a **** about any of your love lifes, or which bar you're gonna be drinking in, or any of that ****. Maybe I feel a bit disconnected as I've lived in Norfolk pretty much my entire life so don't really know Sunderland or the area at all, but honestly, if I want to talk about personal **** like that I'd do it with my mates down the pub, not random e-strangers who I'm never gonna meet. If that makes me an "otter" or whatever you want to call me then so be it. Also, I agree with Smug about the "cliquey" aspect of the board. Even ignoring off-topic threads as I do, I've posted a fair amount of SAFC content (almost 1000 posts I think? EDIT: **** me, over 2000, what am I doing with my life ) but it all gets largely ignored if you're not one of the "big names" on here. I have no idea why I've bothered posting all that, no ****er will read it EDIT: Not having a dig at anyone here, I know some people enjoy the offtopic threads and fair play to them, crack on. I'm just tryna explain why, from my perspective, I think the board's a bit quiet at the moment.
Your avatar does you no favours mate. Like most Sunderland players i stopped taking notice half way through.
Are you serious, why would anyone not want a laugh unless it's directly at the expense of someone? Surely everyone comes on here for a laugh, otherwise why would they bother? Whether the humour is to your own personal taste shouldn't be an issue.
