It is has a clique, sometimes people post and don't get acknowledged because they are not in the clique......sometimes you have to provoke a reaction.....so here goes... Some like to dredge up the past and chuck your words back in your face - so what is the point in setting yourself up for a fall by disagreeing or giving an alternative point of view...............you end a up a pariah. Not606 has not become soft, it become something much worse - it is boorish and boring, too much testosterone, too many voices not enough ears...
how do you mean? i see this board as thriving atm, absolutely buzzing, new members coming on board all the time, silent posters piping up with a say, more views than ever?
He may think gauging posts to protect my lady is soft. If he had an ounce of empathy on the matter, he'd know. I hope he never has to face such personal turmoil. If he did I'd be well within my rights to call him a soft ****. I wouldn't though, I'd lend him my ear and offer him council. It's not about soft or hard. It's being the better person that counts to me, understanding that other people have particular needs and requirements that overrides my own. Who's hard and who's soft is just ego porn for the morons. Humility is noble characteristic. I know you understand that fella, V.Joe has told me all about your visits. You're a don. You have all my respect marra.
I'll spell it out why you're such a ****er, perhaps you'll learm something to your benefit. To put it simply, you're a hypocrite. You'll pursue something, get really aggressive and argue for hours until the point where you're proved wrong. Then you post endless 's and pretend it was all a bit of fun, it's just banter, just a forum. The reason you do that is because you've been humiliated, yet again, and it's all you have to come back with. You take it seriously until someone pisses all over you, which isn't difficult tbh. You're a liar, a fake & a hypocrite. You come on here day after day after day saying we're obsessed with Newcastle ...... it's a shame you're not, you might spend some time on the Mag board
Whenever I log on it is the usual contributors (give or take a name change or 2) and by and large saying the same things about the same subjects. You get a thread going and then someone cracks a joke and then you all start trying to out ad-lib each other.....almost, dare i say, showing off. (at this very moment I expect someone is trawling back through my posts to try find a quote or an opinion or something from way back when and have it used to define my very being or diminish the value of my current post). I used to be on here quite a bit, but just out grew it when I became semi retired and have time to talk to people in pubs, when walking the remaining dog, polishing the car.....I enjoy reading the transfer gossip to a point. Unfortunately contributing became more like making a statement in a court if law....anything you say may be used in evidence, etc etc etc.
Surely that's fair and a reflection of real life mate. In my opinion you have to be responsible for what you do and say. Otherwise everyone on here can just say anything they like and the whole thing is just a mess. If someone says, 'Poyet will relegate Sunderland, he's ****e' aren't people allowed to disagree and remind them if they're proved wrong?' It's all very well saying, 'I told you so, I was right', but you have to take the rough with the smooth .......... surely?
That's life mate .......... on here or walking the dog. If you say to one of your neighbours that the woman at No9 is shagging the bloke from the garage you have to be able to back that up. Why should this place be any different?
Can't say I have a clue what you're on about mate. One or two people do that if that. I don't recall anyone ever throwing something I've said previously in my face and if someone did I'd politely laugh at them and inform them that people change their minds. I have no idea who the clique is you refer to. As for the joke stuff, are you saying people having a laugh is showing off? People take what they want from this forum and good on them, some take friendships, some take the news, some practise their right to be judgemental over strangers, some air their personal life on here, some look for advice on where to have a drink. That's how it is, how it has always been and how it will carry on being. If people get to the point where they feel like they get nothing from it they leave. All is well in the world.
I was sorely tempted to reply to H's post on that thread. Misogyny? Where the **** is the hatred of women on here? I'll throw it open to you all, where is it?
I don't know what she's referring to there to be honest but I won't say owt as she's not about to explain herself.
I've noticed, through posting over many years, that people only really get offensive & personal when you've struck a raw nerve. Your post, and the fact that you don't have any comeback whatsoever, prove that point Son, you're more out of your depth than that lass who fell off the ferry
You make my case far more eloquently than I do Smug. It gets a bit boorish after a while mate, stuck record, saying the same thing....
Poor, very poor. Not everyone can be arsed to type out mass paragraphs with every post as you seem intent on doing, presumably to demonstrate your unmatched grasp of the English language? You sir are a genius!
