Aye.
Ya one of the last of good guys on here mate. Not many of you left.
So, if these 'good guys' are really so good, why have they all left?

TBH, there's a question of quality and quantity.
Posting endless threads about 'what's your favourite toothpaste/soft drink/footwear/phone/car inevitably destroys a board because it swamps the place with drivel. At the end of the day, who really cares who fancies whatever latest tart in the news or prefers this lager over that?
People have stopped posting a variety of threads because they always end up exactly the same, lads hoying pretend insults at each other.

Thanks. Sad but true.
Bored of the whingers?
If they were such great lads I'd hardly think they'd slink off so easily ...
... if they clear off, because a few people say things they don't like, they can't have much about them tbh.
Many different folks. But we have a lot in common
Some have been stalwarts for years. So they have hardly slinked off.
it's surprising they just left.
Who has just left?
Apart from Tel, no one of any signifigance has left recently.
Pishes me off that a Mag got me banned for life off their board cause he couldnt handle me taking the pish out of him and he now posts freely on here even commenting on my threads, aka Dorty mag.
Unless he breaks forum rules mate.

I broke no rules either but still got banned? He inboxed the mods and requested me to be banned like a bitch.
I bet he had a hard 11 years at school i must have created a few flash backs for him.

) -> sunderland". I personally, and I'm sure many on here, come on pretty much exclusively for SAFC news and to hear people's thoughts on player performances, potential signings, etc.
) but it all gets largely ignored if you're not one of the "big names" on here.
Tels left??? Why??
Surely the simple answer is, there's no football so not much to post about?
This happens every summer or international break, etc. and someone always posts a "the board is dying" thread, then it kicks back into life when the footies back on.
You can claim its an off-topic board at heart, but it clearly says at the top "forums -> football -> premier league () -> sunderland". I personally, and I'm sure many on here, come on pretty much exclusively for SAFC news and to hear people's thoughts on player performances, potential signings, etc.
No offense to anyone here, but I really couldn't give a **** about any of your love lifes, or which bar you're gonna be drinking in, or any of that ****. Maybe I feel a bit disconnected as I've lived in Norfolk pretty much my entire life so don't really know Sunderland or the area at all, but honestly, if I want to talk about personal **** like that I'd do it with my mats down the pub, not random e-strangers who I'm never gonna meet. If that makes me an "otter" or whatever you want to call me then so be it.
Also, I agree with Smug about the "cliquey" aspect of the board. Even ignoring off-topic threads as I do, I've posted a fair amount of SAFC content (almost 1000 posts I think?) but it all gets largely ignored if you're not one of the "big names" on here.
I have no idea why I've bothered posting all that, no ****er will read it![]()
Tel was one of us who enjoyed a laugh.
Which seems frowned upon

EDIT: Not having a dig at anyone here, I know some people enjoy the offtopic threads and fair play to them, crack on. I'm just tryna explain why, from my perspective, I think the board's a bit quiet at the moment.
