Has someone had a bet with you to see how many times you can use the word "clique" in a post?
I'm certainly not a member of any clique but I hardly ever read this forum any more due to the utterly boring and predictable posts from yourself and Mario. Geddit?

That's a shame . And it's also a shame that I can't ever seem to remember anything interesting or insightful what you've written or contributed to any particular thread. Your Avatar suits your literacy. :lol:

Re: This forum : Fri Apr 22, 2016 2:43 pm  
There's no clique. When 'Clique' is mentioned on here it is either always used by fairly recent joiners to describe anyone who was already here, or used as a weak defense when idiocy gets called out.

There's normal people who can have a discussion without taking offence because someone has a different view. Then there's others who can't discuss an alternate opinion without condescending and belittling. If people get so offended by the prospect of somebody having a different view on RL, and can't be civil, then they should really question their ability to interact as an adult.

Multiple accounts need to go if it can be done. Far too many individuals propping-up their own arguments.

RLFans has been going downhill for quite a while, even before the most recent nobbers appeared. Less and less posters. More and more idiocy.

Poor moderation. Probably due to the fact that most of our mods had already drifted away from the boards already rather than deliberately ignoring stuff. Poor or no moderation just perpetuates the problems and consequently makes them worse.

This forum is pretty much dead, and don't see it changing any time soon as most posters can't be bothered with the idiot(s).

Your Forum isn't a real Forum, it only accommodates one dimensional Zombie's. Now this Forum is a proper Forum where the Anti, Pro, positive, and Negative is permitted hence your migration to 'Deviltalk' :lol: :WAVE:


With all due respect Stanley, a large majority of RLFANS members which you have just branded as "one dimensional Zombie's" have moved over to the DevilTalk forum. In fact, the new Forum has encouraged a lot of 'lurkers' to actually join in with the discussions ,which is really pleasing to see.

The migration was a necessary evil, and as far as I'm aware people are enjoying the new forum. It encourages debate but in an intelligent, considered manner that doesn't intend to antagonise or upset other members.

We are all old enough to debate an opinion without it having to descend into farce, which is sadly something that has become the norm in threads you have previously commented on, on this forum.

Here comes the cavalry, your views are biased I get Ad Hominem and antagonized. You just backslap with vested interest. Looking at your forum postings, there're only about four consistent posters. :lol:

Yeah that'll be it, Stan.

Obnoxious, reality denying conspiracy theorists with chronic Dunning-Kruger syndrome and a penchant for living in a fantasy world really float my boat.
