    I haven't read all of this thread as it got very tedious but this could be easily avoided again if people just didn't bite. Simple. I'm not aiming this at anyone in particular but it applies to everyone, Jacks and visitors. We're all grown ups, aren't we?

    Make your point - ONCE, then leave it. Most posters (all? <whistle>) are intelligent enough to make their own minds up about any "wum argument". If anyone feels the need to keep bickering away like a playground quarrel then take it to PM - perhaps the mods could step in and police that.

    Ignoring a WUM will wind them up far more than trying to convince them they're wrong - point out you think they're wrong if you have to but don't bang your head against a brick wall. It just leaves a thread in disarray otherwise.

    KJ - your sig is under appreciated :grin:

    If you stick to the topic and do as i do speak honestly on how you feel things are going at the time then nobody can call anyone a wum. they just don't like what someone says as they don't want to hear the negative side of things. Keep to the topic and it dont matter what your views are does it..I could not care who agree's with me or not just as long as i agree with my views and i'm being honest with my views as i see it. I will give credit when its due and i will also say what i think is wrong but whatever view anyone has dont warrant any abuse or trying to belittle anyone as none of us has any power to change things anyway...

    Is this the same Daiswan who posted last night full of praise for the way we played? Or has somebody been naughty and created a new Daiswan account? Might help to read threads in full in the future <ok>

    Norway i really think it is you that should be banned for a short while as all you are doing is stirring up trouble while most of us on here are trying to have a discussion which entails views on the subject that is neither right or wrong, they are personal views..

    I already posted that you had made a comment Dai. <ok>

    I'm not for banning but have to say NJ does seem to have an agenda. He's not alone though. It's a shame because he has a lot to offer. Let it go, man. Either contribute meaningfully or **** off. No biggie. So bloody childish.

    Having a go , ain't even started with that. I've been on the sidelines watching all you guys fall out with each other the last few weeks, not sure what agenda you speak of other than the forum I used to enjoy has turned to **** with no sign of returning .

    I and many others don't bother on here so much anymore for a reason,just read the whole thread and many others.

    Now I'm told to **** off elsewhere ! Nice way to treat a poster who has debated and part taken passionately on this forum since it's inception <ok>

    Norway - if you want to 'have a go' in the manner you describe then go for it. You'll no doubt be banned pretty quick. But what I actually said was that if you are going to continue to simply poke fun at the forum and bemoan its demise you're not really contributing. In fact you're stirring it up, either intentionally or not. If that's all you can offer then yes you can **** off. I also said that would be a shame because you have a hell of a lot to offer.

    Yes we've had squabbles here that have mainly arisen due to wumming from up the road but we'll deal with it. I've agreed not to bite so readily and Phil has stated he'll stop egging them on. That's a start. But in amongst that we've had some decent debate too. If you think your new home is Shangri La and this is a hell on earth that offers nothing then you're entitled to that view but why not stay there? No offence.

    Absolute bloody rubbish Aussie. You certainly didn't need any help from us to send this forum into meltdown - you managed that very well between yourselves.

    Don't mind taking it on the chin when we're at fault (well me personally anyway) but I'll be buggared if you're going to lay the blame for the major part of this forum's problems at our door. Looks like the main instigators have gone from here to the other place anyway. Probably still a few left under other names, but hey ho, every forum has its' spoilers.

    I accept what you've said about being more circumspect in your posts regarding us (me in particular) and Phil's intention not to "kiss arse" quite so much as you put it - I think that should go a long way toward getting some healthy interclub exchanges going. In that spirit, you may have noticed that I have also backed off though it was never my intention to hurt anyone - just have some forum fun on here as well as the pure football themes.

    BTW, You are quite wrong about me "always stealthing" - I only do it now and again. <ok>

    Whatever. Your activity here as increased tenfold since their departure and the fact you admit wumming "now and again" is refreshing if unwelcome, because it confirms what myself, Norway and Vetch have been saying all along.

    I have no trouble with visitors, even your kind. But you cannot deny that your increased involvement here has correlated directly with an upsurge in disharmony too. Toe the line and don't wum and it'll improve. Wum - stealthily or otherwise - and it'll kick off again.

    As for it working both ways I've already politely, if firmly, reacted to your thread on Cardiff which you curiously felt the need to post here. No confrontation from me. If we continue like that we'll be fine.

    This board is one constant squabble ,just look at your response to a resonable post from myself . I dont think of the new forum as anything and that seems to grate with a few on here for some reason there is no camp to or no sides to be taken, but my viewpoint and opinion about this board is as valid as yours and you need to get use to that .

    Not606 has taken a turn for the worse, thats my view and im entitled to air it ,sorry if that upsets a few, im not pinned to any forum ,in fact im on about 4 of them so it aint a straight choice of this or The Jack Army.net

    There is no reason to post articles here anymore something i used to do alot of, in fact i probably posted more articles than most, the reason for this is that its a pointless exercise, stealth wumming from some pretending to be jacks and some pretending to be genuine cardiff fans with a small smattering of decent jacks keeping it on an even keel.

    Im not alone in this thought process,i still post the odd comment here and always will, the fact that you think there are different motives to my posts says more about 606 paranoia for you than it does about me .

    I have also never mentioned that its better elsewhere or Shangri La as you strangely call it but your doing more to advertise The Jack Army.net forum than anyone else including me ,again quite strange !

    As i said earlier, i will not post articles on this forum until its had one of its MODS changed and the WUMS have been sorted out ,your choice how you go about it or if you even bother but things will not change until you have the collective strength and backbone to clean up the forum and get back to serious heated debate where views are exchanged passionatly but respectfully.

    The word respect is sometimes over used but it is definatly in short supply over here these days , im not talking about what goes on with the cardiff lot i mean between fellow Jacks, i couldnt care less about the non blue club and its sell out out fans they have been dead to me for ages, im talking about the community spirit of all Jacks respecting each other and talking about the team we all Love.

    I'll leave you have the last word as i really cant be arsed to reply and go round in circles once again <cheers>

    I don't agree with telling any poster to 'F' off, and you'll never find me using such terminology, as it is far too aggressive and offencive in my view, and although we come from varying backgrounds, these terminologies should be toned down, as they don't show much respect to posters, just an observation!...........<ok>









    PS: My post has crossed with Norways, but 'respect' has been the thought from both of us!
