"This place has gone down hill..."

DOn't know if you lot have noticed, but this forum has been going down hill for a long time.

Ask anyone who has been around a while and they might agree, but from what i can see, people are getting more annoying, agressive, insultive and all round making this place a worse place to be.

I have stopped posting as much as I used to, this is just one of the many reasons why...

Good plan jimmy..

I'm 99.9% sure that Matt never came back. At all. Well, he did, as a newbie on my account (and a regular on Memo's account) but he never spammed etc.

It started when the Pokémon forum left. All the newbies used to post there, but not anymore.

I say SR make a newbie forum (modded by two or three Notables, pah). No regulars are allowed to post there, and only the Notable mods are allowed to view and post in the forum. Then, block all newbie posts from every other forum and wham, done/

Nash is an old timer?

heh.

I was going to say this but then i would get bashed at for moaning.

That's true to a point, but, although I haven't commented on the spam, I have noticed how incredibly more there is now than back in the day (I've only recently returned to these forums).

For all you guys (and ladies too), maybe you should think of reviving the FOG Chat forum - that used to thrive and be the main talking point for virtually everybody here.

And also IGNORE the spammers, surely you should know that reacting to their dross only fuels them more.

Whine whine whine - I forgot that time of the month had came round again when a regular feels the need to make the *shocking* statement that things aren't as good as they used to be. How about you go post something interesting instead of moaning? If you ignore spam, it goes away; if you waste time commenting on it you may as well be spamming yourself.

Good point.

It's like they're some sort of bacteria, One thread posted by them is just fertilizing ground for them to multiply.

I tend not to post *too much* in here anymore, because most of the posters are general retards, bar a few of course.

Only because it has become the spammers "hub". With the arrival of more spamming users, it digs it own grave.

This forum hit the bottom of the hill a very long time ago.
