    Weren't the mods threatening to ban anyone who requested the badger smiley ? <laugh>

    & then they took down the article we were all asking for it on.

    Spoil sports. :(

    606 was good for starters but didn't compare to not606.

    The mods were nowhere near as understanding and lenient, or as handsome as they are on not606.

    Ah yeah, that's one thing that kept it interesting, that feedback article. Loved how about 80% of the posts on that were us Toon fans talking about badgers or begging for jobs.

    Yeh, I wrote an article about this, with my usual stance of "the BBC hate everything newcastle and love everything Liverpool". Wrote it in a way that basically said any comment about Barton was allowed but the Liverpool player in question is not allowed a negative remark against him. I think it lasted 10 minutes before I got Modded. Interesting as I didn't name or accuse any player (even though we all knew Gerrard was guilty and only got off with it because they gave him a "fair" trial in Liverpool....

    I bet the mods had heart attacks keeping the Ryan Giggs stuff swept under the carpet!

    Thats the one! <laugh>

    I always had mass periods of inactivity on 606, managed to be active for that and Bassong day though.

    About the only two major memorable things mind.

    Had some great time on 606 and part of the fun was trying to get articles that could be deemed risque to last longer than an hour.

    I remember writing the one about Sunderland fans first trip into 'Yewrope' and failing due to the fear of flying.

    Lasted 5 minutes!

    Great memories of Bassong day, the bastard hour and finally; the recipes. Some if them were truly lovely!
