Remember when this was fun?

Back when we had gas lamps and an outside toilet, I remember the GPG was fun. Bows and arrows were still on the Secret List and ricketts had yet to be ridden from Hounslow. I used to post regularly on the old GPG but now only occasionally here. I yearn for the good old days, but nostalgia just aint wot is was, is it?

All there seems to be now is a load of people moaning and slagging each other off. Where did all the fun go?

In a different forum I suppose...

I suppose it's because they can't moan at the football!

Seriously though, you're spot on. It's incredibly tedious and it's time it stopped - but then you've started another thread about it.

I'm planning to ban messageboard wars from here - and debates about the rights and wrongs of it. This forum should be for talking about the Bees - not taking a pop at each other.

Could we have a "mindless argument" forum where all the stupid threads get moved? Then make that thread have no moderators, and let the bitches carry on away from the people who actually want to talk about something else, e.g. football!

But it will be one day!

Here here! all the arguing is boring me sh*tless, i think yesterday was the first time i didnt post (when i had access to) in weeks, i wanted to talk about the mighty bees but couldnt be arsed to sift through the pages of utter crap.
 

Remember when this was fun?

why not start a 'fight club' style forum for those that want to have a row ????

and i'm being serious!!
 

Remember when this was fun?

Hear, hear!
Although I can't find anything to moan about at the moment! Gibbo's form has improved dramatically, Owusu is playing well, Evo is in the best form of his life, Hunt doesn't know how to celebrate a goal properly, and this leads to only 2 talking points about football, Price and Burgess.
Christ, messageboards are more fun when we're not very good.

Russ , me old mate ,just what I was thinking as I sat on me throne at home last night.As I donated a pc for the " cause " to the originator of this board ,I get relly peeved with the new nerds on here.How many of us old boys bother to post now,Me , you , Ed ? Remember the Friday afternoons after the Davey and Chapman had been to the pub ?Bring back those chickens ! The old board needed changing to stop the rowing with Foolham boys etc.Now we are stuck with our own new geeks.Maybe there is room for a grown ups board.I know I post crap sometimes ,but Im never serious.Beesotted's board was ok at first but has been infested.Maybe I'll just disappear again for a while,but that just lets the nerds run riot.Maybe me ,Voice and Whippy can sort a few out...we'll see.Nerds need not reply to this unless you want to be known
 

Remember when this was fun?

Well said Bigbee . . . there's nowt wrong with arguing over players etc, but how ****ing sad to argue over which internet site is better!!! Think some people need to grow up a touch.
 

Remember when this was fun?

I only come on now and then and I only cast an eye on general to see if anything important has happened. I look at transfers as well and then visit big match if I need a report. Apart from that, what was an obsession a few years ago (discussing bees all day with people that are actually interested), has become tiresome!!
 

Remember when this was fun?

at last Ed you are going to do something about the crap that sometimes we have to put up with on here. all this arguing was geting on my nerves.and it was not a joy to come on here at times. the last 2 weeks all ive done is post on big match

Ah,another oldie,how could I forget you? If you want to call yourself Horrid fine, it was more of a quick sniff anyway
 

Remember when this was fun?

So Bigbee, does Rudolph count as a new nerd? You've had a pop at him in the past because he didn't agree with most other opinions in a thread. DISCUSSION has TWO sides and that makes it interesting. One sided discussions are boring, boring, boring and tempt outsiders to accuse all the "yes I agree men" of being the C word. (The 6 letter one ending in e and containing a q. NOt the rude one!
wink.gif
).
Too much moderation will remind Rudolph of Mrs Merton and her heated debates! Damn fine woman.........cor!

No ? nothing to do with me is it ?

We want Mrs Bates back !
Then we can stiffen our midfield !
What position shall we put her in ??

oh glory glory days

eh Rudy Reindeer, I dont give a flying **** about you,dont address me directly again
 

Remember when this was fun?

Come on then Edmundo, close this thread. remember what you said. I and many others in the 'free-thinkers' camp abided by what you have said, although you are pretty wide of the mark on this issue as per usual.

But because one of the wider clique, has decided to have a moan on the subject you choose to keep it open.

Would you done the same if this thread had been started by myself, Sweepy or the like? I doubt it very much.

As, always this stinks of double standards and outright hypocrisy.

And to the person who accused this all of being a battle about which website/message board is better. It is not, it is about attitudes and an obvious 'class divide' which exists between SOME members of the GPG and Beesotted.

We used to have the great and irreplacable Billy the Bee on here. Now we have Billy No Mates and his chums.

It is tedious, and I think Twyford Bee has the solution, a new forum for mindless argument and insult trading.

Leaving the rest of the intelegent free thinkers to have meaningful debates & discussions about things that matter.

Doesn't Billy the Bee only turn up when there's money to be made?

Tis a shame that we have degenerated into bickering.
Too many cyberwarriors on the various boards to exert their fragile influence.
Truth is that the old GPG was a forum for people to share views, and take the mickey out of each other. Now it is a platform for people to prove themselves keyboard wise.
The old GPG really showed up people's characters, and it was full of them. However, with so many members these days, it's really difficult to understand everybody's demeanour.
I mean take Bigbee for example. He could post one message per week, and get slated for his type of sense of humour, because loads of people have had little or no experience of his sick, twisted, warped sense of humour!

That's exactly what I have been saying all the way along, but I'm sure you are refering to as such in a different manner though.
