Whatever happened to the days of KP doing unspeakable things behind the bins at the back of bargain booze? What happened to Bonce's unhealthy obsession with Bruce Forsyth? What happened to the days of taking the piss out of Norpig for knocking one out over a poster of Adam Le Fondre on his bedroom wall, of Johnny's quiz's, Nats behind enemy lines, Scott and AD's stupidity, Boggers piss taking, Breads dry humour etc, the list goes on. I used to love coming on here and having a laugh about mindless shite. I also used to love the debate on serious topics and the general conversation and the portal buzzing with activity on a matchday. What went wrong? Such a shame as it was easily the best forum around a few short years ago.
Very good post 58.
What went wrong was hatred, lies and personal agendas turned the site toxic and people started ganging up together based on what they wanted to believe rather than how things actually were!
I've been made out to be the problem on here but what have I actually done other than to tell things how they were and have been proved correct time after time.
Ok, I know people don't like a smart arse but all I've ever done is laid out the facts (and links to them) in order for people to see for themselves - I've never been the one to blatantly tell lies and conspire with other people by privately messages, against anyone.
It's an internet forum for God sake, yet we had grown men trying to get me booted off my own site for what - because I pointed out Wanderlust's continuous lies and fake news, or because I said Anderson had not legally done anything wrong, or maybe because I said there wasn't illegality or cronyism in the awarding of PPE contracts - what exactly was it that people wanted me gone - for actually telling the truth, rather than believing like them what random utter moron's on social media were saying?
It simply stopped being fun when it started to become personal to some.
When the internet become part of their real life.
Look at how Norpig has just stormed off - it's become real to him - he clearly believes I'm some sort of a nutjob harbouring personal grudges - he couldn't be further from the truth.
It's become personal to him - in his real life, that
I'm the lunatic.
In my real life I'm the one who is laughing at those who clearly can no longer tell real life from social media bollocks.
It's the internet ffs - it isn't meant to be taken seriously - Nuts is and was meant to be taken just how you've described it 58.
