Well it looks like Mr I is trying his best to sort this board out so maybe its about time we all did our bit?

End of the day were all here because we love Pools and want to see us do well (despite what some of you think) and it would be one boring world if we all had exactly the same opinions.

Is that cat about to decapitate the chick?

If it is then his actions will be right at home on here.

Fully agree, as long as you remember to stick to the first picture scenario, and not the second below........

its pretty obvious there are certain people on here that purposely post in a way to try and cause conflict, its not surprising that some people end up biting.

But a lot of these 'bites' are completely unwarrented MrB, even the sensible posts get greeted with hostility and name calling. Things should not get 'personal' but it has been starting to get that way and when it arises out of a mere difference of opinion then it is stupid.

granted sometimes people seem to have a short fuse on here lately, however, if people go looking for trouble then they should be fully prepared for the outcome.

Personally speaking I dont go looking for any trouble whatsoever. Fair do's, when i used to be on rivals etc then i would try and get bites sometimes but Ive mellowed now. I pretty much just post opinions as I see things (and not all negative).

Seriously though who comes on here to cause trouble??
The place is becoming quiet because everything anyone says either gets pathetic comments slating the grammar (grammer if you will) or a even more pathetic sarcastic insult.
Its when it gets personal thats where you need to draaw the line.

Mr I..... Maybe you need to re-itterate the rules and regulations of this board and stuff?

We should all be aware of the rules, we signed up to them, without being reminded of them everytime we come on here.

No just 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999998%

You said that Yank keeper wrote a nice blog.

Is this thread really necessary? If you have to make a conscious effort not to be a rarf I reckon there's every chance you're a rarf :laugh:

I'm sick of reading shite like this honestly, this place used to be a laugh to read at the moment it's like sifting through a playground. No wonder the mods are getting sick.

Some people clearly haven't read them have they, thats the issue

Im sure EVERYBODY on this board feels the same. Its been absolutely shiiiiit on here lately. If we all hate how it has become then im sure we should be able to turn it around

Yup I think this is the lowest point the board has ever been. Utter shite at the moment.

funnily enough (and this is genuinely not meant to stir things up) but after the season finished, you barely posted and the whole board chillied out and it was nice for a few weeks. pre-season starts, you start posting more and more and look what happens bbolt

I dont recall not posting very much at all. Must have been the disapointment at staying up eh? :roll:

Personally I dont think any of my comments have been at fault for this board becoming shite these past few weeks. In fact id say the same about Grave. Those whinging about peoples opinions and giving abuse becuase of them are those spoiling the board, not those who dare give opinions.

The current plight of the board has nothing whatsoever to do with tree. He doesnt even post that much. I cant recall Tree ever getting personal or abusive towards anyone on here (apart from maybe POK, and the majority of us are guilty of this [sorry pok!])

The problem with the board has been some of the regulars not liking other peoples opinions and getting abusive. Even the majority of the new lot from rivals who have joined lately have been spot on.

Tree: If thats the case then about opinions....... why is itwhen someone has a differing opinion it gets slated?
