As I write 66 are viewing this forum and 122 viewing Gaschat. I contribute to both under the same name as well as moderating the Rovers page on not606.com. It seems to me that Gaschat is by far the most active site of the three.

There is a finite amount of news and information that is of interest when things are generally going well. Which they are. Keep it just as it is. Quality > Quantity please. Plus - the Mods to a great job here. UTG.

As I write 66 are viewing this forum and 122 viewing Gaschat. I contribute to both under the same name as well as moderating the Rovers page on not606.com. It seems to me that Gaschat is by far the most active site of the three. There is a pretty simple answer to that. I have noticed that many do like to get involved in banter and you have plenty of choice on that forum. You only have to see the rise in banter pages on Facebook and Twitter, to see it appeals to many. I don't mind banter but when it takes a turn, towards threat and personal attack then that's not banter and, it's been my experience that these pages ALWAYS end up going too far. If this place did close then I wouldn't use gaschat. I also have my own reasons for leaving it, I was reacting to the silliness and then it was taking up way too much of my time. There was also the small problem with a mod who hacked accounts and posted under another username but I'll leave that where it is, in the past. Banter or bants, as the trendy young things call it, is not for me. I love some good hearted humour but much goes just too far. For me anyway

For me anyway KP I think Gaschat has changed for the better recently, there's hardly any nastynes on there now the mods take a stronger line when posters do step out of line, you should try it again as I sense that's one of the reasons why it's becoming more popular. What's worrying about this forum is the top topic most of the week is discussing why this forum is dying!

Having read and posted on both forums I sense Gaschat in recent times as become more middle of the road where this forum still as an anti Higgs feel to it, Which is astonishing, given the tremendous job he's done as chairman. Your response just proves why this forum is losing put to Gaschat as that's gone middle of road ie you can be equally anti NH as pro NH, this forum is still 100% anti despite our success on the pitch which must be putting alot of posters off using it. I fear it could be evolve or die for the forum. Unless NH manages to bankrupt us next week then it may become alot popular again!

This forum will keep ticking along so there is no need to worry. As for being 100% anti NH can you prove that because I can assure you, you are wrong. I will admit that the average age of posters on here is more advanced in age than gas chat but that is good as it offers something different to gaschat. As for why does this keep going to the top that is easy, people are saying what they think.

How do you work that out, how do you know, I'm certainly not so that takes it down to 99% And there are plenty on the other forum who are, I know them, many were part of the groups who met at the Welly and also tried to set up an alternative supporters group....just saying like. There are pro's and cons to both forums, long may they both continue

I am not so much anti Higgs as I am anti mismanagement and anti lies and my BS detector goes off the scale with the current BoD.
If the team doing well will make people forget the precarious situation we are in then we really are in trouble. On a personal note. I don't or won't forget the lies, deception and misdirection that has gone on and we could very soon be in a very dire position. Yes, love it we are doing better but I choose not to forget the manner in which we have been treated and, lest you forget, these forums are not here with th clubs blessing. The club closed down the official forum and with yet another BS reason. The BoD don't want us to have a club forum.

Dont think so and even if it was NHs record is hardly something to shout about is it.

I have not been called a whipper snapper for many a year, well in fact it's well into double figures, did you know that on this day 40 years a go a fantastic bird from Bristol made her maiden flight (and no it was not at eastville or in town). I was in junior school, so not so young.

Makes me feel even older now though.
