hypochondriac Posted 29 November, 2009 Author Share Posted 29 November, 2009 I think some people are remembering the 'good old days' with rose tinted er... neurons. That's what people say every time this subject is brought up. Sure there was a hell of a lot wrong with S4E but you can't deny that the banter was better. For me the feel of the place was a lot better. I don't know if it's the posters or the success this place has now but for me it's not the same.

hypochondriac Posted 29 November, 2009 Author Share Posted 29 November, 2009 "No no no no no" and you accuse me of being a drama queen ? You have posted criticism of the mods in the past and went on to say how you were glad you never paid a fiver but if it were not for those that did pay a fiver then this site may not have been about for you to post your criticisms on, if you do on the whole like the board why not ask your mum or dad for the fiver so you can financially contribute to it.

dune Posted 29 November, 2009 Share Posted 29 November, 2009 Is it hard to understand that people like the site but feel it has gone downhill a lot since the S4E days? Forget these pointless offshoot forums (General chat, the muppet show, the cars forum etc etc) because they are not the core point of it all. And compare the football forum now with the football forum in S4E days and the site is run a lot better now. I'm not saying S4E wasn't good in it's early days, but with the decline of SFC so S4E declined too. It became politicised and the forums owner was manipulated to turn it into a focus group. It stopped being a place where we speculated and became a place where the likes of Mike Wilde loaded the gun and let Keith fire the bullets. You were told the ins and outs of all things SFC with a nudge and a wink by a select handpicked band who sat at the high table and it was all b0ll0cks, yet because it came from those who were previously respected it was the gospel. This caused huge divisions in an already fractured fanbase (at least among the miniscule %age that posted). There's none of that now and it's just Tom **** and Harry posting general footie comments and i do believe a lot that is down to a conscious decision by this forums owners not to make the mistakes that S4E did. In short this forum is now just a normal football forum with normal fans and normal rumours picked up from a local taxi driver. This is how it should be and this is how it'll stay now we have a wise head in the shape of Nicola Cortese running the club who isn't trying to divide to rule. I really think you need to take off the rose tinted spectacles and show a bit of gratitude for how good the main board is now, although obviously you could do a better job because you're perfect.

Again.... Not subscribing doesn't doesn't exlude register users from voicing an opinion , be it mod /site related or other. I choose not to subscribe mainly due to not needing the pm facility and not being bothered about posting more than 3 posts a day, my choice, not yours so you spent your pocket money on subscribing, up to you, doesn't mean you can dictate what other posters contribute...unlucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I call that "telling it how it is". I would agree. I once got a 2 week ban for insulting alpine_saint. I thought I should have got a medal, or at least a pat on the back. That's pretty much what I got my ban for - most of my points came from giving Alpine abuse. What's the common theme....? That's right, Alpine. If he wasn't around everyone would be happy, but they won't ban him will they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true, my mission is to make him feel the idiot that he is. Sticks to the rules?! If infractions are being given out for pointless and sarcastic posts, he should have been banned 10 times over.

That's right, Alpine. If he wasn't around everyone would be happy, but they won't ban him will they. The logic of a serial abuser, shifting blame onto his victim. Perhaps the common theme is you. You abusing. I find Alpine and especially Nineteen Canteen interesting and quite often agree with them. But even if I didn't, I wouldn't want them gagged, as I am not a dictator.

St Will Posted 30 November, 2009 Share Posted 30 November, 2009 Yeah and I have an opinion. That Alpine is a negative bore. "Last time I checked this was a forum". All I'm saying is, if Alpine is going to post negative clap trap, I should have the right to tell him he's posting negative clap trap. You're saying that he has the right to disagree with people, well then I have the right to disagree with him. End of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
