Missed opportunity.

[barryk32]

With one of (if not the) biggest Wanderers forums down for a few days, it has been a fantastic chance to grow the site.  People have been exploring new places for their Wanderers fix.

What do you think those 'lucky' enough to have stumbled here have seen?

Page after page of shite name calling, bullying and general shíte modding.

The sooner the reins are handed to Traf the better.

[Sluffy]

Why are you shite stirring again?

We don't want to take over ww's audience - we are not in competition with them or any other BWFC forum.

We simply run a forum that as a different style to the others.

If you like it great - if you don't then please go some place else.

Thank you.

Sluffy >> barry

Sluffy >> Sharps

[Mr Magoo]

You can have more than 1 mod, I think sluffy does a good job, he cannot be on here all day, as he seem's to be the only one doing the job.
Traf would make a good mod, But that is up to Manny and Sluffy to decide.
If you don,t like the site FCUK off on another 1.

[Batman]

Anyone >> Sharps

[DaveBWFC]

He starts a thread about name calling and then calls the mods shít. Brilliant.

I like the site, I just feel we could be bigger and better. I don't like the fact sluffy brought Sharps back just to increase the post count.

[Batman]

Natasha you're right, this forum has great potential.

Not shíte stirring, just pointing out obvious facts.

I didn't realise WW, TW, BB and BA had exclusive audiences??

What style is this?  This forum has been called  Racist Aces a few times in other places?  Is this the niche being aimed for?

I like some aspects of the forum but not others.  Hopefully the bad points will one day be eradicated.

[Batman]

I think by 'points' you mean 'posters'.

Would only take someone like me about five minutes with modship to right this place.

Of course you're shite stirring – we both know it - not the first time either.

Did I say the various forums had 'exclusive' audiences - I don't believe I did!

Do you think I'm really that bothered what Didle called this forum?  Looks as those people who gave us 22,000 page hits yesterday don't either.

Have you ever thought that maybe what is a bad aspect of this forum is the very reason someone else posts on this site?

Like you though I do like some aspects of the forum more than others - but unlike you I know it makes all sorts to make a world - or at least maybe a forum that people keep coming back to!

True, but then you ban Amos when it was Dave winding him up.

Can't you see Dave & Sharps are at the heart of everything bad?

[Batman]

It's true Sluffy. They give this site a bad name when really it can be in the top two.

First of all I'm not posting just because Wways is not available, even though I've not posted for a long while, I still read the board now and again.

I did say this was more like Rasict Aces, however Sluffy, I don't think you can deny that I many a time messaged you saying this was a good forum, just spoiled by a few individuals.

Now I know my comment here won't be welcomed, I'm sure, however I've just seen my name mentioned, so thought id sign in and explain. Thanks for the 2 emails asking me to comeback btw lol

Like I say I've been reading the site but not contributing, because I believe the same thing will happen again, I see Amos returned and I also see nothing changed there, I think the problem isn't Amos, I think the problem is allowing certain members to post.

If it wasn't for the bullying, the abuse on this site, I doubt you'd get the responses from Amos, me saying Rasict Aces, it's a great site, as I've told you many times Sluffy, however when I say Rasict/Abusive Aces, that wasn't towards the forum and no disrespect meant to you and Manny, it was to do with certain individual members.

I read and I see no change, I'm sure I'm no loss to this forum, I would consider coming back if it wasn't for the likes of Dave and Sharps, you let Sharps back, and then Amos and then Sir Nut.

It's like upping the post count again, however starting the whole abuse, Amos defending, spamming etc cycle again, if I reposted I know for sure, I'd end up with Dave acting like a thug towards my self, not just Amos, well everyone.

[Batman]

I like you. You should stay. They should leave.

[Sluffy]

It's true Sluffy. They give this site a bad name when really it can be in the top two.

What do we want to be in the top two for though?

It's not like we earn any money from here - we do it for fun - and if it means by having fun we are the biggest or littlest forum about - then it doesn't really bother us - it's the laugh's (within in reason anyway) that matter.

It's funny how one regular of ww and another from tw are telling us what we should and should not be doing - I might take you both a bit more seriously if you actual were regular users on here!

ww and tw are both great sites  - I just enjoy this one more - seems I'm not the only one either.

Ah, reet, where's my return ticket for that space ship I've just got off

I'd say 1500 posts was fairly regular, wouldn't you? It's only 25% of your total.

This is by far the better forum, hence me gracing with my presence.

[Sluffy]

Didle you get just as much piss taking on ww than you do on here - in fact a great deal more imo!

You are welcome to post on here at any time - indeed everyone who hasn't tried to fcuk the forum up (and there have been one or two!) is.

Although I help mod the site - and am now a miserable old fart - I've not always been an angel all through my life - I've said and done things I now regret - and have learned through my mistakes to hopefully have become a better person.

One thing though in all those years is that I have never ever taken an internet football forum seriously - there's just too many plant pots out there trying to shite stir, pick internet fights and bear endless grudges.

At the end of the day Didle I advised you NOT to post things about your private life - yet you did and still do - and people take the piss and upset you about it (just like Amos - remember!).

You have to either learn to ignore the 'banter' or go someplace else.  

If Burnden Aces and ww banned all the people commenting on your private life - then there wouldn't be many people left on either site.

[Sluffy]

1,500 posts would be fairly regular for a normal poster true - but you did that in less than two months!

Your output on ww tw is prodigious!

I personally would be very pleased indeed if you did consider this forum to be your 'home' - I'm a big fan of your 'work' - but you've passed through here on a number of occasions before without stopping.

Maybe this time will be different?

[traf]

Batman's on ww?

[Batman]

I've never been on WW in my whole entire life Ian

That is incredibly short sighted.

Say for instance I wanted a website designing and stumbled across this http://www.chris-mann.co.uk/

Now, slap bang in the middle is the home page.  Scroll down a bit and it says things like.....

"Initially the subject of a part-time hobby, Burnden Aces quickly developed into the number one Bolton Wanderers fans website around." aswell as  putting a link to here.

Now ask yourself, after clicking the link and reading the amount of racist and bullying postings would I continue to the second link??  Would I fcúk.

It also claims to be the number one forum around whilst you contradict saying size is irrelevant.

So please just remember that while you may see it as a bit of fun where racism and bullying are acceptable as long as its only borderline or the culprit says sorry, it is infact a massive part of the owners future and livelihood.

(just in case you were wondering, after 5 minutes here there would be no way at all I would be asking for my website to be looked after by the owner, which is a massive shame as its not really his fault).

[Sluffy]

Batman's on ww?

Sorry - I obviously meant TW and not WW.
