Is it just me or don't you find there is a lot of crappy posts recently on this forum?

I hate to do the moderator, but I think I'll have to do. There is way too much off topic posts and way to much vulgarity.

I sure hope this will get better very soon, because I'll have to get to do a takeover and clean this mess.

Once again, you can report any abuse to me personnaly, I don't read all the posts but when something is brought to my attention, I do the job.

Nico - totally understandable mate:nod: As a frequent poster of Off Topics - I will try and cut it down a wee bit;) And apologies if anyone has been offended by The Shugster! But it's not every day Celtic win the league championship and yer gonna see New Order in a couple of months;) SORRY BUT LIFE SURE IS GOOD AT THE MOMENT

Well, that wasn't really related to you Mr Shug :)

At least you put an O/T in the title of most of these :)

But there is plenty of recent users posting crap, and I must say I don't like the way things are turning.

I'd rather read April's than those, if you see what I mean!

Agreed - there's a definite evil lurking in the forum these days. What's more, "Ian Curtis" has only surfaced since the return of our pissed colleague JW. "Karen James" disappeared - serious doubts as to whether they aren't all the same person.

What did worry me was that both "Karen James" and "James Walsh" knew all about "Peregrine Underfoot", despite not having been members at the time of the previous shite outbreak.

Ditto for me. And surely the suggestion of more April (if the O/T offenders cut back) is motivation enough? Md :cool:

Perhaps it woz directed at me, I'm the one who replied to those O/T posts. I take my hat off and apologise profusely. I hadn't logged on for a while and couldn't believe how catty things were in this site...What happened to Major T, I miss his humour.

Perhaps people seem to be running out of things to say? A little bit of humour here and there won't go a miss - Shugs you're always up for a laugh and of course more :beer: :lol:

Cheers Spooky;) I'm sure yer apology will be accepted if necessary, and as for that smelly (but slightly amusing) Major - he should be back any time now (he couldn't get access to his computer for the last 2 weeks - he told me why in Manchester - but I was that pissed - I can't remember:lol: )

i,ll hold me hands up and admit some of my posts might have offended people (swearing etc) sorry..... also a big apology to hank wiseass.. as for off topic postings.. i,m sorry but i love em spotnick you do an excellent job

I've been guilty of either starting off topic stuff or contributing to it heavily in the past, but I must say after a bit of hypothesizing on "what New Order's next move may be" and feeling quite frankly that they've burned us U.S. fans recently (at least those of us on the east coast unable to travel), you HAVE to resort to off-topic stuff to keep a discussion going. Mind you, the endless lists on my part have been too much (I admit, list-making is best done in desperation for lack of anything better to discuss), and so if I contributed to this lack of NO-related topics in that way or any others, I apologize.

So let's cut the f*^king profanity down and try and remember to mention the band we all know and love and thus is the reason we come here, and we'll be just fine. At any rate, now is a good time for....JOY DIVISION SMILIES!!!!!

Well, you don't I don't mind too much the off-topic posts, but there is still a limit somewhere that cannot be crossed...

I mean, do we actually need to discuss a fight between Phili Collins and Peter Gabriel? :D

I'm off-topic myself because...

THE HABS WILL FINALLY BE IN THE PLAYOFFS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 4 YEARS

I don't think many of you understand that sentence, but.. ah well... :D

Outside of that last one, I do not do much O/T, and as far as anything else, it is not my style

at this point, i think we're running a little low on new order topics. unless we repeat ourselves. so i don't mind off topics as long as they're amusing.

Congrats to the people of Montreal! Gotta admit that for the few of us over here who follow hockey, Les Habs ARE the history-laden franchise who it seemed would never fail to be a contending team. These last four years must have been a nightmare.
