    At one time a full working shift of 8 hours could be used to read through and post.</p>

    Now it seems that there are only a small number of posts per day.</p>

    Bring back TFP and Dillinger et al.</p>

    People live in fear of their employers getting contacted. Or of being banned for contacting other people's employers. It's a double whammy.

    So someone contacted his employers as well then?

    Do we have a serial e-mailer on our hands?

    RE: So someone contacted his employers as well then?

    Sooner or later it's only going to be the self-employed and the unemployed left on here.

    And the "on here" is looking a bit optimistic.

    Hinchcliff should be brought back!

    Was it Barnsley FC dog masks or something he invented?

    I still read during the day but the negative nature of some of the posting

    just makes me not want to contribute. I used to try to put a counter argument to try to add a bit of balance but now you have to be either  pro or anti Davey and slag off the reverse. I really have got to the stage where I can't be arsed most of the time. There doesn't seem to be the same level of construtive debate as there used to be and the banter seems more malicious. </p>

    In addition to this I'm busy at work trying to keep the wolf from the door.</p>

    Actually I've read today's posts and they seem to be more civilised

    ... maybe I'm wrong then

    Been thinking similar, used to live on here all day

    For the last 8 years I have had the kind of job where I could piss around on here without any comebacks from work. Now I've got lumbered working for the government I haven't got time to go for a piss.

    In fact this could be the most lively, vibrant and funny message board on the net these days and I'd never know.

    Thats it Dave...

    Anyway mate.</p>

    I agree. There was a time when this place was a laugh a minute now its just a bitter battle between 2 camps of differing views with a little bit of nazi politics to boot.</p>

    I think a number of posters have become readers and not posters or have taken to using the BBS more infrequently.</p>

    I hope that it'll get back to how it was just a couple of years ago.</p>

    We were in a poorly state then as a club but the general postings were actually more jovial.</p>

    I used to like TFP and his fight night postings...

    ... I now find myself nodding in agreement with Dirk,Jay and Redstar... and that has to be a little worrying :eek: </p>
