Maybe he is comparing the figures to a summer or 2 ago when that legend of a guy SuperScully was posting . The forum was getting more hits than Amy Whitehouse's lower arms  Bring back SuperScully  Admin ? |

As the person responsible for creating the monster that is UCL Chatter all those moons ago, I have to say that something must be awry.
I dont often log on and contribute anymore because most serious posts seem to get hijacked by someone trying to (a) be funny or (b) wind you up.
That isnt why I took the time to create the site, and I am sure it isnt why the current mods and admin keep it going.
Of course I wanted banter and of course I wanted humour, but it's knowing when there is a serious discussion that is going on and respecting that where I think we are lacking.
I look back at some of the original posters and they have gone. Some of them took offence and moved out.
I suppose after one abusive PM too many about how I was running the site, I took the hump too. But I am happy to be back and wanting to get involved in the discussion on how to keep UCL Chatter at the forefront of UCL news.

It is a shame as I am sure the original intention was well meant when setting up this forum on balance I don’t think it has anymore shall we say “controversial posters” than any other forum and it appears that most type sites go through high times and low times.
It can’t be policed 24/7
Not sure it’s the top place for news however it does at least give a place for views.

I suppose any forum is only as good as the people that post on it and the content of their posts.

It's not that bad!! People should be allowed to express their opinions as they please, they should also understand that other opinions may also be just as valid though!!
Who cares? Get posting.

Decline of the site is associated to the 'lose lose' scenario.
Be nice to fellow opposition or members - get slated.
Form opinion that is provocative - get slated.
Bring up any subject with depth - get slated.
Plus, people simply do not read all the key information in a post before they veer off at a tangent and make assumptions. You don't need to read too much into that for where my point comes from.
Oh, and the self importance and proclamation of Paul Topcat SuperScully is probably getting a bit old hat now.............

No words.... just cartoons?? Look I am sure that if TC was super scully then he would say so wouldn’t he? Surely it can’t be suggested he would be that spineless? That he wouldn’t declare that he had beaten the system of the IP address on this forum? So my vote is..... ok its border line.. TC isn’t superscully on the other hand what if he is? And confesses and then gets banned again... he would have to change service provider??? Meanwhile what will he do with himself?? It’s a tough one as it does appear less posting since it blew up over the Junior cup thingy go on its Friday... nibble nibble lol  |
