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.

I made one, then posted about 4 or 5 times before moving straight here.

They must have been scousers because you couldn't say a word about SG. They made it seem as if the barman had hit SG's fist with his face.

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....

The last year of 606 was just pitiful but it's had it's good times, it's celebs in zeTom1, borogully, DavidMoyesWife, Toon4Europe. The era of 'the gentlemen' spreading word of minority sports and roid rage.

I lost patience once the moderation team went overboard, round about when Gerrard assaulted that DJ they removed anything anti-'big4' (but left up **** about Joey Barton).

After making so many articles they banned me for saying the mods suck dick (which considering the BBC is an equal opportunities employer is statistically correct), I made a few other accounts but just gave in when the quality of posts dropped.

The banter was great and to be honest, I loved the whole drama surrounding WUMs, it was so busy and you still managed to have decent banter whilst acting like naughty school children under the watchful eyes of Auntie Beeb.

I will miss 606 but it died long ago.

Ahh the good old zeTom and T4E rivalry! Then they both disappeared! T4E = Tash ;)

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!
