Lad, if you think RAWK is so good, stay there. 

You think this place is cliquey?  There are about six or seven posters on there (or Legends as they like to call themselves...... I like to call them something else) who run the gaff, and their word is gospel.  Legend my arse, at the end of the day, they're still men like you and me who go down the pub and debate football all night. 

Are they important Legends then?  Does your opinion count for less then if you were standing a yard away from them?

Just because they have 23,876 posts to their name on an internet forum makes them think they have some sort of credence.  Your opinion doesn't count if you're not a regular member, it only counts if you're replying to a thread these "Super Chiefs" have posted in.  I've posted about 60 posts in nearly three years on that site because if I'm being honest, I don't like being logged in there!!!!!!  I'd rather read the opinions of the members on here.  Or TalkLFC, or ThisIsAnfield.com.

I even used to like reading Paul Tomkins articles, but now I find I can't finish them anymore.  I used to always check if he'd submitted a new one.  I'll still be buying his new book next month, and I'll probably enjoy it, but give me Bigmick's opinions from this site over him any day.

Plus, they have this saying called "RAWK-friendly" which proper gets under my skin.  Fucking self important pricks.

RAWK is BIG and very successful, but I feel they can be a little up their own arses too much, that's all.  I like a lot of things that they do and would like to incorporate some of the said things into this site, but I find I can't usually stay logged in there more than five minutes because you get the feeling you are just not being listened to, it's TOO BUSY for my liking if anything, and what's the point of that?  Your post gets lost in two seconds flat.  I also find the majority of the posts in the Liverpool discussion are one sentence long.  Who even wants to read that?

Personally, I like the quirkiness of this forum a lot more than the seriousness of RAWK.

The only reasons im there more is because the muppets arent tolerated and threads are disposed of. Thats all Im asking happens here. I would love to write great big articles on here and RAWK, I just dont have the time as its AS level year at school. If I can I will get some good threads going on here to try and kick it up again, heck Ill even email some material to RAOTL when I have the time.

I love this place really, it can be great, alot warmer than RAWK but the 'good members' on here seem to be being diluted by muppets.

oh right, so it's the mods fault that people are starting cr@p threads then is it? if people thought for two seconds before starting sh#te in the first place then that's the problem solved. we can't be on here 24/7 you know.

saint lad, calm down, just saying the threads should be disposed of ASAP. maybe get some lad down under to do the job at night? heard youve got a few lads down under 

NAH just joking with the gag

A lot of the established members are as guilty as the people spamming as they only fan the flames by reacting. I am just amazed that people can get so much pleasure out of berating another members post just cos they are annoyed by it. Just let it go and move on. However you'll notice that most of these issues arise outside of the transfer windows, when there is very little to talk about.

There are only so many topics you can discuss on a daily basis before you roam into old territory or complete nonsense. Everyone on this board is guilty of one, the other or both. It's like having a conversation with your mates in the pub without the alcohol. The genius of alcohol is that you can get away with the bollox and everyone has forgotten what you said the next day so you are good for the next night out.
