KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum On our knees

Don't know if you can recall Stan, but I'm pretty sure it always gets a little like this in the closed season.

As soon as we kick off things settle down to a degree. I don't let it bother me in particular. Although I agree we should all be a tad more measured in our replies.

I'm pretty sure a large portion would add you know who to the ignore list

I like the idea of the +1 or -1 buttons being added to comments.
I go onto another forum and it works very well. if someone's post gets down voted beyond a certain point the comment get's a :click here to read this comment button: effectively warning people that it could be a WUM comment.

if the post gets voted down to far the it comes up with a :down voted to oblivion: statement which means the post has been removed completely.

Decent idea, I suggested a counter idea myself. I think it would really help.

This.

Generally speaking if an opinion has reasoning with it it can be openly debated.

e.g.
LFC will now only ever be a mid table club. FSG wont take us forward.

These are the things that are pointless to post, because they just kill any debate as they don't add anything. See what I just did - opinion then reasoning.

Why ? my opinion is similar not saying we will always be like this but if I had to bet more likely than not. FSG wont take us forward is a pretty fair opinion one I think 50% of this forums members would agree with

I don't think they would unless it's against he-who-must-not-be-named to be honest with you. Everyone disagrees with everyone else at some point but I haven't seen it get nasty until recently with only 1 person. And if that person got his act together then gradually people would stop downvoting (in theory). After all a forum is to discuss ideas, it would be pretty boring if everyone just agreed with everyone else.

Absolutely 100% not true.

I wholeheartedly agree with you, and the overwhelming majority of people concerning this specific thread, but I reckon I can guarantee no one has ever notified one of my posts, I have never insulted anyone, I have never sworn, all I have ever done is put across my opinion and I hope that I've done that in a way that other people will be able to see and accept and then form their opinion on. What's the point? You don't achieve anything with insults.The same can be said for a small minority of other posters who, by coincidence (I think/ presume) share my opinions on the current state of LFC. Generally speaking, most of JJ's, Prilific Borini's, boxmonkey's etc. threads or posts I find interesting to read, they put their point across and explain their reasons for said point, rather than just saying 'You're wrong' and that's it.

Now this is not to say the people who are more optimistic are right and deserve the forum more than the pessimists, quite the opposite- without the pessimists, the optimists would have nothing to debate and this place would become very boring, but it is possible to put across your opinion in a manner in which people don't get irate.

To be honest, it's annoyed the hell out of me for a while now, and those who have been around a lot longer than me..I don't know how you've put up with it for so long. The majority of seemingly interesting threads on here nowadays turn out to be not constructive or pleasant, and it's boring as hell.

Why hasn't Dunk just banned his IP address, problem solved.
