You know, things like that will come back and haunt you one day. Remember that there are plenty of people who will have saved that image to use against you at a later date.

I don't know what's going on either. This place becomes more and more bizarre by the week.nodnirG kraM wrote:Is anybody else at a loss as to what is going on??
I've seen it happen on other forums/discussion boards. As less and less people post, the more mental some of the remaining members become. It's usually only a matter of time before the said forum closes.
If we use this formula I have devised, we should be able to fairly accurately predict when TV Forum will bite the cyber dust.
A + MN - B + MR x S =
A = Age (of forum)
MN = Membership Total
B = Banned total
MR = Mental Retardation factor
S = Number of sadministrators/moderators
Divide the final number by two, and you're left with a rough estimate (in days) until forum implosion.

Well, I don't know what's going on over here - I haven't been around here much lately, and I daresay the place has been all the better without my presence - all I can say is, what the f*ck?! I come back and find JM banned again for being a racist bigot, some bloke posting ridiculous pictures of himself and Martin handing control over to Gavin. One of those things may be a good thing - and probably will be. I invite you to guess which one.
You'll find, otp, that people feel the need to be above themselves because of different reasons. Some feel that their presence is inadequate in the "real" world, so by creating an online persona of importance and haughty attitude, they become bigger than they really are and they make up for their non-virtual shortcomings, being short, thin, weedy or ugly, for example.
Other reasons may be that original members become tired of the way things are run and wish for a different methodology, some kind of "new way" because the old way they would be accustomed to is 'out'. That is certainly true of TV Forum - it seems newer members like 'looknorth' and 'Primetime TV/AndyTyneTees/whatever' have become more prominent in posting and feel the need to make nonsensical posts about why we should have sofas in N8. These drops in simple spelling and grammar combined with the useless nature of many of these posts make many original members frustrated at the way things are run, and they (myself included sometimes) feel that they have to correct the problem themselves, because the management simply can't be bothered, or won't help.
Maybe some of the members who do this are tw*ts, I don't know, I don't know any of you well enough and haven't spoken at great length with any of you in order to make that assumption. What I can say, though, is that there will come a time when a new forum will need to be created by the original members for TV presentation - perhaps a 'closed' forum, with very restricted membership - in order to keep out the little ones. Some of them probably aren't even dyslexic, as we think they are, probably just victims of the current state school system, or thick, or something.
God, I sure know how to waste my study leave!

Ah what a great post. A lot of the new people try to hard to be like the older members which annoys me.
I notice that even the old members can still fall out, which makes me laugh. It is sad though that when people put their views across on a situation or a show they dont agree with they turn into a long lost members of the KKK.

And sadly, there's been no sign of Jamesh_1993 either. All the talent is disappearing at an alarming rate.
