How bad are other bbs's

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

Was browsing a Chelsea bbs to get some hints for my fantasy football team. You would not believe the bile between Chelsea and Leeds. I wouldn't mind if it were a decent discussion. Take a look at these...

CHELSEA GONNA GO BUST AND LEEDS GONNA WIN THE ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE!!!!!!! YOU CANNOT DENY THE TRUE FACTS!!

LEEDS WILL DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! crash and burn

look at who is on top of leeds. WE ARE!!! so shut your trap and go hipe between your mother a$$ cheeks


Don't these kids have homework to do. They'll never grow up to be mature vicars like us.

Nick - I've tried most bbs's, including a concerted recent attempt to 'get into' the Talk of the Tyne board, but they are all dire. TOTT is probably the 'best of the rest', and has direct links to the rivals.net network of boards for all other PL Clubs. However, this is a double-edged sword as you usually get flooded by "fans" of the next team you happen to be playing, 90% of which is mindless bile. I have given it up as a bad job.

It is for this reason I am so desperate for us to maintain standards on this board, something that unfortunately seems to get interpreted as latent censorship or fuddy- duddyism.
