Nat - Queen of the lurkers

Bread got banned from here because Sluffy didn't like him, that's clear to absolutely every single user – except the man himself. 


Nat won't post a huge amount because there is nothing to post on, most of the interesting personalities are gone and any interesting conversation has gone with them. Debate is shut down under the guise of wanting to avoid conflict. 


It's a shame because there are no real alternatives to Nuts and at it's peak the debate and conversation – both about Wanderers and not – was intelligent, challenging and amusing. 


I'd love to think we could get back to that, but it's increasingly unlikely. 

I agree.
But,hey,Nuts is paid up for the next three years,whether anyone posts or not.
So,fuck us,right?

Hahaha, you both do make me laugh.

TROY, the account of someone suddenly posting again out of the blue after stropping off and deleting their own account because they didn't like something I said on an internet footy forum!

And Bonce trying to make something out of me simply saying exactly what it says 'on the tin' - we HAVE paid up the running costs for Nuts for the next three years (it wasn't a fortune and we did it before Bread got his final ban) - so even if no one posts on Nuts - including me and the rest of the people who run the site - it will still be here!

Nobody is saying 'fuck you' to anyone.

Nuts is here if you want to post - and will still be here for the next three years at least - if you don't.

As for Bread he's acted like a bell end once too often it seems for Twitter.  I didn't complain about him either under his old twitter account or his new guise as Orihuela Trotter - I doubt anybody had to - I'd put money on it that Twitter had him on 'watch' and pulled the trigger on him as soon as he started a new account posting abuse at the same people he had before.

As for whether I/we liked him or not is neither here nor there.  More to the point was that he was let back on the condition he that he dropped his long held vendettas and trolling - and clearly he didn't want to - or is too obsessive and couldn't - if so perhaps he should be seeking professional help!

Allegedly, Albert Einstein said the definition of insanity is doing something over and over again and expecting a different result.  Well Bread clearly doesn't want to change despite all the chances given to him over the last four years, so we've simply put an end to the insanity of hoping that he would want to stop his abuse and trolling.

And it looks as though Twitter has come to the same conclusion - and about three and a half years sooner than we did!

Is this the five minute lecture,or the full half hour? Jolly good value either way.

Do you know what Nat's up to? She's far too quiet. It worries me.

Correct, but what point are you trying to make?

All I know of Natasha is what she's posted on the forum, namely because BTID posted up the previous week competition threads (without even a pm to her) she has vowed not to post on here anymore.

Clearly BTID simply started the competition threads at the last moment because Natasha wasn't about - and was clearly only doing so in an attempt to help - but she's held firm (with one commendable exception) ever since.

I couldn't believe for one second that she wasn't posting for that reason and hazarded a guess that's she's probably gone off on holiday or some such thing.

I had hoped/urged that the competition thread for tonight's game be left for Natasha to do - my logic being that if she returned (no matter how late in the day) then everything would be back to normal again - and if she didn't, it would clearly signal that she'd given up on them.

I think a view from those that played though was that the prospect of unnecessarily missing a week because of 'whatever' and spoiling the fun of everyone else playing in a season long competition was not merited, and after leaving it as late as they thought reasonable - posted up the thread so that everyone else could play in tonight's round.

As I say I'd be amazed if Natasha really didn't think all BTID did originally was to help - and that because of it no longer posts - but what do I know?

I know people have pm-ed her - with no reply back - and even I contacted her this afternoon - again without a reply back.

I've had a load of fun following NG/MrsR/Natasha over the years and if this is the time she's decided to move on - then a massive thank you from me and you will certainly be greatly missed.

But everything - no matter how good - comes to an end one day.

I've got my fingers crossed that we've not reached that day just yet!

Just the obvious one that I'm hardly on your Christmas card list - am I!

I don't know you, but you certainly act like a bit of a prat on here the way you treat any poster you develop an issue with – Bread, Kane, Lust in particular. 

And I think that attack on intelligent, interesting posters is a major contributing factor to the site's decline. Which is a shame.

There's loads of intelligent, interesting posters on Nuts - are you trying to make out I have issues with every single one of them?

As for the three you named - I desperately wanted Chris Manning to be greatly more involved with Nuts (still do) and even proposed a mods job for him to run part of the site for us - how does that fit in with what you say?

Lusty is old school, just like myself.

He can give it out certainly - but he can also take it - and not take stuff seriously to stew on them or hold grudges and vendettas.

He'll tell you the same himself.

So that only leaves Bread.

The one that's been banned for abuse and trolling by Twitter, Bolton Evening News, JA606, Burnden Aces, WanderersWays and Nuts, etc.

Yet I'm the one who is the prat with some sort of issues - and he's presumably in your book the hero!?

Yeah, right.

And for the record - I'm not even the one that pressed the ban button the most times on him on here!

So don't be trying to make out it's personal between me and him - we all have our say in the back room on here - and we all view him in exactly the same way - and we've all simply had enough of him.

Just like everybody else whose had dealings with him on the various social media sites he's 'graced'!

Strange coincidence that everybody soon bans him don't you think - with him being an intelligent, interesting poster and all that?

You’re completely besotted by Bread aren’t you, Stuffy? You’ve banned him for good and yet he’s still your hottest topic of conversation. You’re even making stuff up about him now.

I reckon your hard-on for him is the reason Nat’s abandoned you. Blinded by his allure you’ve taken your eye off the real prize and jilted her. Whittam doesn’t play second fiddle to anyone though and now you’ve just ended up with the ‘big dogs’.

The thing I've never managed to work out is if you genuinely regard yourself the relaxed, reasonable poster you self-describe as. Or if you are aware enough to realise your behaviour is anything but? 

Your posts after the event always take on the same narrative: 

Crazy poster attacks Sluffy incessantly with no provocation. 
Sluffy remains as patient as a saint for a remarkable amount of time. 
In the end Sluffy given no choice and reluctantly bans.
Internet not taken seriously/we run Nuts for free essay.

All I'm saying to you is shutting down interesting debate, conflict and posters has cost the site.

If all you did is to come back to Nuts to moan and whinge then why bother? 

You are making yourself look quite pathetic!

These are the only open threads at the moment worth a comment IMO, Sluffy's outlook and attitude are quite an interesting topic for me.

Not sure why that's a problem to you? Surely any comments at the moment at least provide a talking point to spark some activity?

How dare you!
My own personal thread is well on the way to a fifth volume,and I can assure you,it's full of interesting stuff.
I plan to publish them in time,so think on. You could do yourself a favour if you play your cards right.
I'm keeping a low profile at the moment,in case Sluffy gets trigger happy again.

I think Nat's just gone on a break. She's too big a personality to wrap it in altogether. Perhaps the tax on sugary foods has taken up much of her time in trying to find substitutes for Twirls and Pepsi.
Bread on the other hand is a good geezer who defends his corner and those who complain don't seem to like the crap he dishes out while dishing it out themselves. That's what makes this site so interesting, well, to me anyway, and the arguments you will find in any family.
I'm off until Monday so going to have a booze up and shout at the pigeons on Trafalgar Square. To be honest I'm surprised no-one's set up a barbecue and flogged the buggers off to tourists.
Sunderland got the Welshman so some amusement too I'll be bound.

I'd be careful,if I were you.
