Bluemoon goes into Meltdown

Well, in fairness to City, that hasn't happened to them.
While all that could be somewhat true if I posted on here Bayern have a greater chance of winning the Champions League next season than United most would say 'fair enough' or at least respect my opinion. When I said the same about City on Bluemoon I was called a troll, a Rag etc insult etc.
I'd hope not, but they still have by far the worst football forum.
I don't know if it's a crazy conspiracy theory to have the train of thought that your manager had a transfer budget and probably spent most of it and believe your owners invested more when they realised their company was in dire need of it. Ultimately no one knows what goes on behind closed doors but that would be my expectation of what likely happened as an opposition supporter.
What? Don't base your view of a Forum on the posts made in that Forum?
What the feck else are you supposed to base your views on a Forum?
Funny. The original post was an allegation of low intelligence amongst City fans based on red cafe quotes. You haven't understood the original post nor my reply.
You are defending Bluemoon?
When the things people say are mostly vitriol and hatred it usually signifies lower intelligence..hence the alt right and Trump voters in general.
Exactly. Add to that the complete inability to tolerate conflicting opinions and the susceptibility to conspiracy theories. All telltale signs
You mean, the sort of person who is happy to state that a fan-base is of low intelligence based on selected quotes on a rival team's forum?
Post from United fan which I responded too:
'I have been on this forum for 12 years, read the quotes from Blue Moon for that long, and yes, their appreciation of football is that it is an avenue for their hatred rather than an avenue for enjoyment of the sport. When I say hatred, I am referring to their self-hatred, which no doubt comes from the facts they are a group of low intelligence, high school drop-outs who, due to their limitations, have never made their mark on the world as individuals.'
Seems like a lot of vitriol from the Utd fan?
Exactly. Add to that the complete inability to tolerate conflicting opinions and the susceptibility to conspiracy theories. All telltale signs
Most football forums struggle to tolerate conflicting opinions. Isn't that why redcafe has the newbie system?
That HAS to be a banner at Old Trafford!
Not to the extent that Bluemoon has. Anything resembling a dissenting opinion there is treated as a slight against their club.
Also this thread exists to laugh and Bluemoon and City fans correct? Don't know what else you would expect.
If that's the best you can come up with compared to the bile on your site, you really are deluded!
I don't care for trying to analyze the psychology of BlueMoon's posters but whenever I have gone and read that forum I've found the discussion to be of extremely poor quality. In fact I find it difficult to fathom what kind of human being would continuously post drivel like much of the stuff there.
The newbie system is about poster quality, not censoring differing viewpoints.
Always makes me laugh when City fans come into the Bluemoon meltdown thread with all manner of objections!
Cool, that you have the need to defend Bluemoon for some reason but you've other threads to discuss City. Don't ruin this thread or I'll threadban you. Why do oppo posters bother coming in the meltdown threads anyway?
I'm not sure you understand what 'vitriol' means?
Compare that post, a calm and composed piece of writing (while certainly taking a dim view of BM posters), to the 'feckING CORRUPT CHEATING RAG cnuts' posts page after page after page on Bluemoon. Exactly the same thing isn't it Is he still your mate?I doubt so mate...that was before the internet became mainstream and I bet that a lot of their so-called fans started signing up on their site after the take-over. I remember when I was 16 back in 2009 a year after their take-over, I had a mate who used to support Chelsea and he switched his loyalty to City. I asked him why? And he took out a £50 note and exclaimed loudly "Because they have money!" You jelly?
He's my secondary class-mate, I've lost contact with him.
Even after they banned the poor rag Frank a few days ago, they still can't let it go.
Republic of Mancunian (RoM) has become very hard to visit now. I used to post there a lot , but the posters there now are anti-united like anything. You will be abused there if you defend jose, it's like that there.
@Snowjoe can we thread ban the guy up top, el lameo or something like that, who doesn't quite understand this thread is for bluemoon pisstake?
Nope just the ones whose sole purpose of posting on forums and on the internet in general is to spew hatred. If Bluemoon has a higher proportion of that kind of poster..and they do then its reasonable to assume a lack of intelligence is prevalent on that forum.
Its up to you to decide whether thats a big enough sample to call Citys support base stupid in general.
In my opinion from being on the Caf and viewing twitter and other social media its reasonable for me to assume, in part, that United have a spoiled and impatient fan base where nothing but instant success is good enough.
Exactly. Add to that the complete inability to tolerate conflicting opinions and the susceptibility to conspiracy theories. All telltale signs
Yes that too. At least the dippers are humourous at times.
What a pathetic little turd of a club . That defence is still a shambles.
Pep fraudiola cant do it with small clubs. Another trophyless season beckons.

At least they're unbiased
Ahhh, I missed his post when I skipped past the long discussion, I get bored by real club talk when it comes to our two scummy rivals.@KM has laid out the threat already. I'll let him do the honours if he feels it's fit
A little perspective on @el magico's argument:
Even now, they're still responding to a guy they banned days ago! Low intelligence indeed!

I think someone needs to tell that poster that old Trafford was only bombed because the German clubs knew we would be more of a rival than city..
Old Trafford still standing, how bowt Maine Road?

ffsHonestly Liverpool fans are delusional, funny or cringeworthy, pretty much like most of us at times, and RAWK reflects that. City fans seem to have a severe bitterness that runs deep. Even friends of mine, family, etc, if I look at their facebook/twitter sometimes I just have to stay away because it seems to be infectious. Often with a bit of talking i can at least get a sensible conversation, but I think thats only because we are known to each other, in their own bubble or sounding room the echo chamber seems to bring out the worst.
Two great people I know, one is a family guy, highly religious, wouldn't say boo to a ghost as such, but some of the diatribe and bitterness toward united is truly unbelievable (I even go taken to City games with him when I was young). The other is a nice bloke, very chilled, but when he posts things on Twitter, and the responses you get about things like the media being bias, makes me think there is something about our success that unhinged them.

I used to post on Wookies City Forum which unfortunately is dying a slow death, below are posts by City fans on about wookies dying and bluemoon, the thread has 8 posts. I think most intelligent City fans avoid bluemoon as it is horrendous.
The modding on this site makes it what it is, without it you'd have the likes of Treble_winning turning it into a red bluemoon within months.
I can’t help looking in on Bluemoon most days but it’s generally a depressing read with people more interested in point-scoring than discussion. And the matchday thread makes you want to give up football and lie in a darkened room for a while
Bluemoon full of people who think they know the score but clearly don’t.
Real sad. Some really intelligent conversation on here. Bluemoon is crap. Full of foul mouthed idiots who write first and think after. Will miss being on here.
Still here, occasionally – and would much rather contribute here than Bluemoon which is far too quick for my slow fingers and struggles with considered posts.

I just had a look, one post I don't altogether agree with but can see where the poster is coming from the the post after is just why people think ity's full of idiots

I reckon it'll be between us and united this season.
Chelsea are losing two big characters in Costa and Terry (i know he didn't play much, but a huge influence), are adding in European football and will be a bit tired of Conte's incessant demands.
Spurs have the Wembley thing and it's this team's 3rd straight season without much renewal (so far), they play high intensity and rely on a few key players, i reckon they'll drop off.
Liverpool don't have the depth of quality and Arsenal will do well to get back into 4th.
Can we please refer to them as scum, or rags thank you

the reaction if aguero was to leave would be hilarious - dipper impersonators

How are the fans dealing with the fact that they haven't been linked with a single centre half, which is by far their weakest position?
Why do you think they're buying all these attackers? Pep's obviously going for the famous 2-1-3-4 formation with Sanchez as a ball playing centre half
I am surprised the goalie isn't optional in his tactic
Surely they will use their new fullbacks as centre halfs, I seem to remember that was considered absolute genius by Lineker, Shearer and the media in general
Well with bravos performance last season I thought it was
