It was a number of people MR, no names, no pack drill I have no problem at all with bad language, **** me I'm an ex soldier marra, but some went OTT not even wanting to engage in debate......
Mate we have always got along and I'm not trying to fall out. But telling fellow supporters to **** off to another forum isn't the way forward. Someone smarter than me, pointed out that there were a lot of passive aggressive posts from the Mugs. And! I totally agree, also the so called reasonable post, with the addendum of a jibe or snide comment at our great club. If I spot it, they get it, simple as, then the bleating of I didn't mean it that way, yeah of course they didn't. I'm not bothered about the odd post from them or even the usual fail WUM. Lately our threads have been sidetracked by numerous of the unwashed piling in and the thread gets totally sidetracked by people defending our club from their snide comments. Plus, even I, respond reasonably when a reasonable point has been made. Some of them seem intent on posting on every thread and repeating the same point over and over again. (RIng any bells Chapparse!)
I've never fallen out with anyone on our board and I'm not about to start now marra I will, and have given as good as I get when our club is attacked or there's wumming going on, so I'm shoulder to shoulder with you on that score. What I was trying to get across with 'Ready to go' is that it is purely for Sunderland fans only. Some people on here think that our board is only for us and no one else. As you know, Not606 has been designed so that fans from all clubs can go on each others boards to talk football etc. but some just can't grasp this concept and are very offended when anyone but SAFC fans post on our board. The problem is we are all very wound up, thanks to the antics of our club manager (can't bring myself to say his name) and until it is sorted out once and for all (there's the door SB!) and the clubs fortunes improve, I think we are all going to remain a little tetchy. Some of the mags know this and are taking advantage of it, but we can't tar them all with the same brush, because like it or not, there are some decent guys amongst them AND I have 3 mag sons to pacify
100% agree mate, several of the more 'reasonable' posters recently seem to put subtle little barbs in their posts. It maybe that they think they're being clever trying to see if we spot it, those I hate rather more than the outright idiots. If these people come here wanting to be clever and take the piss then just like MR, I reserve the right to tell them to get ****ed. If they want to debate, then they're more than welcome. That's as simple as I see it. I've tried to put the fools on ignore but it just screws up a thread (imo) as they tend to jump en mass on a thread and it just kills it for me.
I agree with a lot of what Dorset has said. The abuse is what I don't like, there is no need for it. Saying they started it or they are giving us abuse is no excuse, be the bigger person and rise above it. Ready To Go can be terrible, I have seen posts on there encouraging violence towards other fans and people joking about hurting other fans. This forum is much more friendly and I hope it stays that way. You should not say anything on here you would not be prepared to say to someone in person. We are all football fans, we might disagree but thats all part of what makes the game so interesting.
Trust me mate I would have no problem telling anyone to **** off to their face. I don't go to their board and make snide comments, if they insist on continuing to do it here. I shall continue to set em straight.
People like MackemsRule and Vauxsamson are genuinely paranoid fools who think that every mag comment has some sort of dig or snide comment in it, even when it's perfectly genuine. How sad.
Agree abouy RTG I read it sparingly because it can be very abusive. I said something similar to your points on syd's thread (asking for everyone to help the mods out). Then the thread seemed to go a bit haywire and now they are all talking Shakespeare and poetry! So maybe my little sermon worked?
Alright I'll be the first to say it, I know you are all too proud to go first, but are secretly dying to tell each other. I love you all. Phew, that's a big weight off my shoulders, I feel much better now. Who's next, go on give it a go, you might like it.
The problem is that's what they want, they are looking for that attention, so your setting them straight is fueling the fire. Ignore them it really is the best way.
I agree. Personally, I wish any 'haters' would just ignore me or put me on ignore. It means I can have a discussion with the genuine mackem fans without irritating hate-filled posts getting in the way.
Genuine mackem fans, get lost you sanctimonius, deluded dullard. Do you have a Jesus complex or something?
You must literally never leave your computer! I'm guessing your skin is almost opaque. It almost tempts me into giving you a job...... But you can't even bother yourself to deliver my paper on time.
