From what i could see from recent threads, some people on this board seem obsessed about wanting promotion to access the main forums. maybe it's just me, but i find it pretty disturbing. What's all this obsession about? I know people wanting to discuss opinions more about united, wanting to post their thoughts on the threads in there. But can't you do that in the newbie forum as well? Don't you have better things to do of in your life?
As for me as an individual, i said it before and i say it again. i don't really care whether i'm promoted or whether i'm not. I'm happy posting in the newbies and will continue to do that without whining. If the mods deem that it's time for my promotion, so be it. And until that happens, i'm glad to continue here. Here is a pretty nice place with some decent and honest posters around and i have no qualms about sharing my thoughts and opinions with them. Some of them do know more about United than some of the rubbish posters in the main boards, but more on that later.
As for the rubbish posters i mentioned above, i could mention a few names and i will.
1) Slabber -> Here is a guy hiding behind his 16 inch monitor with his wide range of indecent vocabulary going around insulting some people here. it's sad really. He offers nothing on the board other than going around pissing people off with his thrash comments. How the hell he is allowed to continue that, i do not know.
2) Hairdryer -> A perfect example would be cooking up the Kaka story. Enough said.
3) Manchester Boy -> He's a fine guy, actually. Good honest poster. I actually traded with him a few opinions here and he knows his stuff about united and all that. Of cos, he tends to be stubborn, doesn't really agree what people thinks and everyone must think the same as him. But that's understandable for a 16 year old. And the spastic thing is he thinks his support of United is bigger than anyone else on this forum.
Now there are obviously non-united fans here on the board, don't get me wrong, i'm fine with that. Fans rivalry, club rivalry are part and parcel of football. But then, there are a few who just piss me off. I'm fine about them discussing about their matches with united and aftermath of it, but going around being critical of united, our players etc etc. I don't go to a dipper forum or a gooner one to do that. It's not nice really. And it's bad enough that some of our own fans are slating our players off. We need no second invitation for rival fans to do the same. Could the mods please do something about this? This forum which is great could be a better one without them.
I could go on until midnight, but i shall not waste any further of my time.
