BTW Jem, me phone's empty, hence no reply.

SORRY GLAS, I actually have NO other way to contact her before tomorrow morning.

Send her an email, you prick!!

I can't, her mail only works in work, dumbass :D

Make her collect it from the web site then

Plonker!

It's pop3 mail Muppet!

Maya don't you think we should discuss this elsewhere lest we bring down the wrath of Glas on ourselves?

The wrath?....As I mentioned earlier merely making observations. And I don't have "bad days", every day is a celebration in Fabulous Glasvegas, for real!

Nice to see the thread has gone the way of those I was refering to in the first place. Three or four individuals dominating.

To clarify....I'm not objecting to the threads about Tesco's, Top 5 Songs By One Armed Banjo Players or whether Weetabix tastes better with hot or cold milk (cold in summer, hot in winter by the way). Many of them are more interseting than another debate about whether Ceremony is an NO or JD song.

I'm just stating the glaringly obvious fact that a lot of what gets posted is dull but more importantly I'm also pointing out that 6 page long threds which are basically three people having a yawnsome conversation are best kept for Messenger. This is particularly annoying when they crop up in really good threads and basically lead to them being hijacked and taken in a totally different direction by the usual suspects.

And Barney Army, to refer to the people that agree as "shitstirrers" is a bit odd. If you agree your a shitstirrer?

So it's a personal issue then, fair enough.

Might I suggest you speak to the forum moderators and ask them to enforce the on-topic rules then?

You know what annoys me most is that you post summat quite reasonable stating how we should "all just get along" then fuck it up by having three separate snidey digs at me in your follow up posts. And i hadn't even responded by that point! You can't help yourself can you?

Better things to do of a night. Off to lose some more on Betfair. Lump on the under 2.5 goals market in the Arse/Real match.

Since I'm clearly one of the "usual suspects", one of those who interacts wth folks beyond the confines of the posted topic on occasion.I can hardly be accused of a pre-emptive strike now can I?

- just was noted that there've been lots of new posters here. & pointed out that Sirens' Call did attract a lot of press. also that this site is a diverse joy and an escape. plus it can have the great uneditted sport news . that the papers don't carry.

Hmmm..

I'm one of these people who has only been posting in the last six months, although I've been looking in for three years perhaps. Is that ok?.. Am I allowed?

I'm confused at the serious threads/political threads request too. Do you want more?. I've started a few political threads but don't start as many as i would, because chat forums don't tend to mix well with politics and religion. What exactly is required here???.. Its a mixed bag of messages.

AND.. If you want more interesting threads, then why not start one? Is that an unusual concept?. I think starting threads about this place being boring is pretty poor when you cant offer any 'interesting' threads.

Perhaps life just gets boring this time of the year.

would you like me to abuse you? is that what you're trying to tell me?

damn it graeme. you beat me to it. i was going to start a 'ready for hijacking' thread after reading the top three men (or was it women?) thread.

It has got a bit shit round here at times. The NO Cup is only going because nothing else seems to be happening!

Mmmmmmmmmmm

A thread about how boring it is around here has generated the most intense discussion in the past 24+ hours

Paradox?.......

And what about folk that feel the need to put their tuppence worth in on every thread even when they've clearly got bollocks all to contribute?!!! There's rarely been a week I've not visited these forums since mid 2001 and I still aint reached a thousand posts. Quality, not quantity people.

If yer don't like it;

Why read the threads and complain, look at something you like Dude!

At which point you can stop reading.

The rule here has always been "If you don't like the thread, don't read it." Simple, really. Instead of following that rule, however, periodically we get a load of wank from somebody who finds the threads aren't meeting their expected standard.

Simple solution: Ignore the threads you don't want to read. Start the threads you'd like to read. Ignore the hijacks,* keep posting on topic. End of worries.

* Some of the funniest threads ever have been the off-topic hijacks.

I dunno about you, but posting less than a thousand posts in five years suggests a lack of interest in anything.

:\ohwell:

I saw that post before you lost your bollocks and edited it. Did you read it back to yourself, look at the link on Al's post and realise you fit the bill perfectly?

It worked.
