Why pboro needs to go

[Geordie_Jacko]

I've only recently come back on the footymad forum and am already sick of seeing the same two people constantly arguing an trying to find faults in what ones said. I think we could have a much better board if that just all stopped and also think we'd have more posters. I wonder how many fans pop on here , think about making an account . Then check out the threads to see constant bickering between 2 fans of 'the same' club and think sack that we'll find another forum.

There's nothing wrong with tit for tat arguing here and there. It's easy overlooked if people really want to.
The ignore function is there so it's not like people are forced to view.

I also asked if we could have the off topic forum back where arguments can be sorted out along with any other off topic stuff but nothing seems to have come back from that as of yet.

I agree nothing wrong with tit for tat but when the same two choose to constantly argue over every little thing. It puts others off from posting and imo jointing the board. It's boring and repetitive and basically completely pointless.

The ignore button is easy to use and you can view anything else you want to with the posters ignored being automatically excluded.

It really is that simple.

When talking about football you can both bring up good issues so it's not really fair to say just use the ignore button. It's your constant arguing I don't want to see not your comments on actual football . But you no what really is simple? Stopping having completely pointless arguments and taking huge parts of threads doing so. A lot of people get at pboro and I don't agree with most the stuff he posts if not all of it, but you basically stalk the guy . It's embarrassing . That being said I didn't no there was an ignore button tbh. How do I do it ? I'm on my phone and can't see one. Or do I need to click on the persons profile I'm choosing to ignore?

Geordie_Jacko all I asked in this last instance is why had he stated in a previous post that Ashley was in a hurry to sack Carr and now in this thread he was blaming Rafa for Carr's removal. It's just that Pboro blames everything on Rafa and I asked for clarification.

Had it been anyone else he might have replied without the abuse and insults. You may notice that I don't return the abuse and insults.

If we could get that off topic forum we used to have up and running then all issues would be solved, because the football side can be just that and any tit for tat arguing can be split off to off topic.

It also gives people a chance to add extra chat without disturbing Newcastle topics or football topics in general.

Did you manage to get any feedback from the off topic suggestion to the admin/owners?

This seems a logical solution to me. Hopefully it will get sorted out 👍.

I e mailed the person who set up the extra toon news forum for the footymad posts. I haven't heard anything back. I suppose its possible that he was just involved in the initial setting up and ironing out problems that occurred in the 1st few weeks/months.

I'll see if i can send another message to the overall footymad people themselves and see if anything comes of that. from what i could gather previously. kev who runs NUFC page can't open up a sub forum himself.

I'm really not sure if i've read that correctly. "any tit for tat arguing can be split off to off topic."

it isn't possible to just move certain posts from a thread onto a different sub forum - it would have to be the whole thread = which would obviously include the football side of it as well, or none of it
