No worries guys, I avoid JA606, cos I have past history with certain posters on there from BBC606 days and what I like about here is we can all chat, all debate and generally have fun. One person should not be this much aggro to people. Iâm sure youi cope with people like this in real life situations. If you disagree, say why. Some people are always going to rattling cages. BBC606 was not destroyed by the wums or as people thought they were, in my opinion it was spoilt by the fighting. Both sides were as bad as each other and I never got abused as much as when I stated that I didnât know what Grayson was doing at times and that I didnât agree with Bates. I got so much abuse from so called fans it was unbelievable sooo hence why I wasnât impressed by this thread. I am Leeds through and through but will say when I feel something is wrong in my eyes. If people donât like that then tough but after a while I kept getting abused on threads that I wasnât even apart of because of my relationship with LIW and because I wasnât blindly following the people who run our club. I was called some choice names shall we say and believe me, I really want that person to come and meet me one day cos I show him exactly what Iâm about. but I digress. As for LIW well hes a different story. I used to hate him, he annoyed me that much then I worked out how to wind him up and that was it. We have to tolerate a lot in life, and whatâs one person. And as mentioned the ignore button is best used rather than resorting to insulting people. Donât get me wrong, I aint no angel, far from it and I can be moody bitch at best of times but I try and be respectful. After that, thatâs when I blow a gasket. You know sometimes, that little bugger LIW lights the fuse and sits back and watches me flyâ¦grr. So there you go And also Iâm so frustrated already with this transfer window. I hate not knowing whatâs going on.
IALWAB – God don’t I wish, I wouldn’t get so annoyed. Social workers can be VERY annoying…
I feel like I've missed something! I mainly read WACCOE but have been flitting between here and JA606 as well. JA is doing my head in - it's just the worst of what 606 always was. So looks like I'll be looking in here more often - I like it.
I think not606 and Dirty Leeds are probably the most rational Leeds forums. The rest all seem to be ****ting themselves in blind panic.
How ridiculous is it that my anti-Grayson comments fit in more with ja606 yet I was banned from there? I couldn't believe it when I moved over here to find hardly anyone backing me up and most just abusing me. This is a much better site overall, though. The moderators aren't faceless, you can discuss things with them openly, and the flaws of the orginal 606, which you got used to, have not been replicated.
I have no interest in that rival forum, but the moderation there appears absolutely ridiculous. Saw on the General Chat board on here that JA's main admin came out and said this the other day: I guess there's a market for that kind of protective, prudish attitude on the internet, but it seems more suited to a political party's forum than one for British football fans.
All a bit sad really- I like this site i have to say... I am being really thick but how can I add a pic to my profile???? Thanks
lol, it actually took me a while too, if you click forum actions at the top, then go to edit profile, a list of options should come up of the left of the screen and you can just click edit avatar
I've had a look around the various forums. This one, JA606 and lufcloaded. JA606 seems to be a personal battleground for Jonty and Originalkoppite. If they're not slagging each other in every thread going, they're creating threads specifiaclly to have a go at each other. That kind of thing is exactly why I couldn't wait for the original 606 to shut down. This forum gets my vote.
People went to JA606 due to the layout being a ringer for the beeb. It works well on my phone so I sometimes scan there boards when I am at home & I have to admit I have not been impressed with the level of conversation or indeed there mods. Personal attacks are rife & its clearly not banter half of the time & as CT commented above, clearly a bit of discrimination as well! Glad you have chosen to spend some more time with us whitemaremma, always enjoyed your view point on all things LUFC related
I liked the look of JA so much. But it is such a dictatorship its unbelievable. Thing is, I was wary of this site precisely for that reason. I thought there would be a lot of abuse etc with it being easier to swear etc but actually Iâm really impressed. So well done the makers of this. JA I would just be in fight after fight after fight. I still on occasion get mentioned by original gobshite grrr. I agree with people having different opinions and being able to discuss them rationally with a little bit of humour. On their its basically just a bun fight with who can abuse who more. LIW loves it on there LOL. I wonder whyâ¦
The things the moderator was saying to me, after I asked why I was banned, could have come straight from the mouth of orginalkoppite. It was clear he'd been badgering them to have me banned and they just gave into him. He even made a mad comment about me on the YEP website in response to Brendan Ormsby's views on the Schmeichel decision. At least on here when I present my watertight argument against Grayson, I just get abuse. He comes back every time, contradicting himself and using bizarre logic.
I've been looking on JA and found that it's just a slagfest..fairly amusing tho reading the tirades launched against fellow fans but in the end we are all Leeds fans and tho we all may differ on opinions there is no need for that amount of bickering
