Aye, that's fair enough. No problems. I've had some massive rows on here with a few people including Syd & Manko but always made it up. I'm not one to hold a grudge, never was & tonight I did thank Manko for his condolences & I meant that, he's a good lad really. Him & me have had some massive ding dongs but always turned thing round. Like I said before, it's a forum on which people express their opinions & you will get differences of opinion & sometimes fights break out just like they do in pubs now & again. Even among mates. At the end of the day though, if you think the site is ****e or dying on it's feet then there is a simple answer isn't there?
Well state why you think the board, which is one of the most active on the whole site is dying & suggest what you think may improve it. But if you don't really like it at all nobody is making you log on are they?
The board was class before we started losing last season. Since then it's been full of bullying, side taking and general discord. The Bruce thing put it on its knees and it's up to us to move it on from that. But fair enough mate. Insinuate that I should **** off for pointing out this discord. Telling people to **** off for having any manner of criticism will make the board class.
Still curious as to what the actual divide is? Can't put it down to 14-15 people really, as they are often at logger heads themselves.
please log in to view this image Hands across the divide lads! If we can do it anyone can (Until the summer marching season comes then it's all bets off and we kick off again). TBH the one thing I've learnt about life and conflict resolution is that it's never good to rake up the past with the view to blame. Look forward, you don't have to forget but you can forgive?
Where did I tell you to **** off? Not once did I say anything like that to you. Look, if I didn't like a certain pub, cafe, restaurant or whatever then I wouldn't go back. It's a bit like watching thing that offend you. You have the option of switching off. As far as I'm concerned you are welcome but what I'm saying is if you don't like it here then I aint forcing you to come. Is that spelled out clearly enough for you?
That's why I said insinuated, saying... 'if it's **** there's an easy solution' is insinuating someone should **** off, it's certainly not saying it outright but it doesn't need to. I didn't say it was ****. I said it was on its knees, it's not what it was. It used to be class. I'm welcome? Thanks for that, really kind of you.
Sorry you feel bullied mate but you're a grown man FFS. It's words on a screen, has anyone physically threatend you? What is this bullying you speak of? I despise bullies btw. We have arguments, that's human nature.
Just trying to lighten the mood, LOL.. TBH anyone who feels bullied (a word banded about far to often imo) on a internet forum needs to have a reality check. Frustrated yes but bullied? Not unless there was any physical threats made and the posters actually new each other then bullied to me is far to strong a word.
It depends what you mean by divide...For example, when it comes to supporting SAFC we are basically as one...But when it comes to opinions of what is the best way forward, team selections, the merits of the manager etc, then opinions are always going to differ, and in my opinion it would be a pretty dull site if they didn't...
You are welcome mate, everyone is. I just lost my lass & come on here for some help, a bit like chatting with your marras down the bar. I've stuck up for mags in the past even before Janie died if I thought they were in the right as I would for anyone. As far as I'm concerned EVERYONE is welcome here & love to see away fans coming on. So there you go.
Now I have to ask if you're drunk? I didn't say I'd been bullied, I don't feel bullied, thanks for your concern though I guess. Has anyone threatened me? No, again I didn't say that and don't know what made you think that. The bullying started with the BIB/BOB problem. People gave their views and were insulted by posters, the biggest culprits I hardly need to point out. I haven't been bullied but I've seen others bullied and made to look stupid for expressing their view, that in itself put me off a bit. Think you'll find we've lost quite a few regular posters over the last six months.
