The Social Ladder of Saints Web

[kwsaint]

From what I've seen it works something like this:

 

1) Regular posters (you can guess who)

2) People who say the atmosphere is **** and we have the worst fans in the country.

3) People who think we will stay up and aren't on their high horse all the time.

4) The occasional poster who has some very good things to say but is seldom acknowledged.

 

Tell me if I'm wrong.

[Saint Garrett]

Think I fit in to category 3 & 4

[RobM]

You forgot 'people who say things purely for a reaction, but later contradict their own opinion'.

[Saint Charlie]

You forgot the Forum elders who are only refered to by their real first name.

 

They don't post overly often but when they do everyone replies saying they are 'spot on' etc.

[ottery st mary]

;)Spot on Charlie

[rick1976.4.38]

what about the WUMs

[sandwichsaint]

You forgot 5) the noisy neighbours, and also 6) those who say this site is a pale imitation of it's S4E heyday.

 

I'm a 6), there really are so few posters and so few threads that maybe we ought to consider doing something differently?

 

I recall the early Ugly where they mixed the football, music, politics, and fashion threads all on the same page.

 

Guess that was just the next step on from fanzines and was of it's time?

 

Could that work again?

[Bearsy]

7) People who wear DryNites Pyjama Pants to bed (Tokyo-Saint)

12) People who post naked on their settee eating beans straight from can (Spudgun)

4) People who probably spend too much time on here which is how come they know dumb facts like above (Bearsy)

[Deano6]

Oh for a forum that allows chat about not only football, but also music, politics, fashion, or even just to mess around. The good old days!

 

The only criticism I had back then was that it lacked a bit of organisation and it was sometimes a little hard to filter out the genres you didn't want to read about, meaning the footy often got lost amidst discussions of the best sauce to go in fishfinger sandwiches.

[Glasgow_Saint]

what about the trolls?

Good post GS

Thanks milton

[chocco boxo]

Definitely a click or some ****s?

[110_Persaint]

IMO:

 

1) honest posters with usually great insight and a respectful demeanor: colinjb, s-clarke, charlie, dubai, chez, crab lungs, etc.

 

2) honest posters hated for their "negativity" when in fact they're only being realistic: alpine, miltonroader, dibden, dalek, etc.

3) posters who come here to mouth off about whatever tickles their fancy, usually like to pick arguments: dig dig, appy, garrett, badger, for_heaven's, supermikey, etc.

 

4) posters who come here to have fun, not too fussed about serious saints talk: bearsy, tokyo, glasgow, turkish, spud, etc.

 

5) those who think their opinion is of great importance and believe themselves untouchable: MLG, delldays, itchen_dan, Mr X, trousers, etc.

 

6) harmless posters who quietly give their opinion whilst passing under the radar: 70's_mike, ART, dr who, ottery, pingwing, whitey etc.

 

7) flat out trolls: sotonjoe, hypochondriac, vectis, flyer, toresf, etc.

Very kind of you to say so (thank you) but I think I called someone a **** around a month ago. I wholly retract it, though. First time I've proper lost it since... well, since the infamous Bucket Rattlers rant

[Mattio]

Quite clearly I fit into category 4, anyone who disagrees is a trolling WUM

Mouth off about whatever!??

 

Right. So I don't come on here to discuss Saints with plenty of other like minded people?!

 

Constant negative people **** me off on real life as well, so it's not out of character for them to **** me off on here.

 

I personally think I add a pretty expansive opinion on here when I have time to discuss things in depth...

What about sarcastic pedants who don't like Americanisms or people who say "loose" when they mean "lose"? (Can't think of anyone straight away but I am sure they exist).

 

By the way, putting Turkish in category 4 is hilarious

Which of these 7 teams would win in a cage fight to the death?

[Tokyo-Saint]

Us of course! We have Turkish.

[dubai_phil]

I miss the PR plants

[Lazlo78]

Yes, so you do. Not quite sure how that happened, but it has been scientifically proven by the OP...

[Bearsy]

It'll be like in Gladiator - we'll be cowering under the arches as we send Turkish out on his own to wreak mayhems!

Spot on mate

[Bearsy]

giant gay albino from BANSHEEEE!

 

hopefully the other squads ain't seen banshee and don't know giant gay albino turkish critical weakness - when he is trying to force them to suck his knob you can easily remove testicles with prison yard shank!

[Tokyo-Saint]

Dumb bear! Now we are in trouble, MLG will be straight on to this! You'll be next into battle if Turks gets taken out.

[Dig Dig]

Us of course! We have Turkish.

 

Not sure if Turkish could handle a Dig Dig-Supermikey tag team.

Rod, check your PMs. Had an interesting conversation with Mike at the game on Saturday.

[Tokyo-Saint]

Not now you know his weakness anyway.

 

To be fair to Turks, our whole team will be susceptible to that attack. Our only victory will come against the wet fannies, apart from that, we are in trouble.

Am seething Rod. Two quid to park my car at the U21 game at SMS tonight.

 

I remember the days they would send a Steward to park for me and let me into the boardroom for a schmooze before kick off. Times have changed Rod. Derek sends his regards.

Too true Jeremy. I always said that we would foresake ownership of our club the day we ceased being a PLC.

 

Give me free parking and a humdinger story in the lounge before kick off any day over the souless pursuit of success at all costs.

 

Regards, Tony

Its pursuit Tony. Spelling has never been up to much.

 

Totally agree though. As Vince said the other day, give me League One and Neal Trotman any day. Hows the old lady Dorothy?

You would do well against the trolls (7). They have Hypocondriac so would be the whipping lads of the forum. Sotonjoe has a little gammy hand and a club foot as well.

[Tokyo-Saint]

I like Saint Garrett, he is my favourite group 2er. We need some people to be taking about saints at some point otherwise it would just be me and bearsy talking crap and winding up taxi drivers. More like Saint Garrett please. Even Charlie is a kind MLG with a sense of humour. It takes different stokes, different strokes to make the forum.

[ozzmeister]

I'm defo a 4) I fully expect no one to notice this.......

[Griff]

I'm category 5.

I read this forum all the time but post rarely as if I do I'm usually wrong, or suspect I will be in someone's eyes

But I do pay my sub

[Turkish]

I've never backed down from a cyber ruck and i'm not about to start now.

 

Turkish - posting on mongboards for 13 years and 13 years undefeated.

Where do you see yourself ?

[ecuk268]

I am amazed at how some people can clock up so many posts.

 

Some average 15 - 20 posts per day over a number of years. Do they not lead a normal life? Are they stuck in some gloomy room glued to their keyboards?

 

Is it a question of quantity over quality?

Not that difficult it is, have a quick look in the morning, maybe make two or three posts then, same at lunchtime with 4 or 5 posts then have a look on at night when the missus is watching the soaps or some other sh*te. Sometimes when i'm working from home i'll have TSW open all day so i can get into proper rucks but that's only once a week or so.This post has probably taken about 30 seconds to type, so you're talking about 10 minutes to type your 20 posts a day, hardly something to be amazed by, unless of you course you dont need a normal life.

[Tokyo-Saint]

I am able to bump up my posts by just saying stuff like: "this ^" "like he said ^" "dumb bear" and "whatever Turks".

 

Take these and the pics away and I'm on less that 100.
