Attention: Please take a moment to consider our terms and conditions before posting.

I think we're all missing the point here...

the true scandal right now is - the 'Transfer rumours thread', the very life blood of this forum, has been demoted from a sticky to a bog standard, common-or-garden, stinking plebeian scum thread.

The old girl deserves more respect.

    Support the thread
    Not the forum

    This regime has no respect for the site's tradition. Nearly three hundred pages of history, memories and shared experiences just swept aside at the drop of a hat. #itsadisgrace

    That'll teach me to listen to feedback. "That thread's rubbish", I was told. "It's full of nonsense and it's far less important than Foley".

    But rather like Charlton, it may be rubbish, but it's our rubbish.

    It's just the beginning.

    Wait for the excuses, injuries, the dogs at the vets, loads of Palace trying to join the board, pressures of moderating.

    It's when he substitutes photos of Slade for Appleton we need to start really worrying.

    Popular ones expensive on the server like the Transfer Thread have been loaned to the STVV forum.

    Uh oh, and now we have the poorly thought-out, grammatically flawed official statement. I suppose it's all the thread users fault too, and we were all secretly hoping this would happen?

    I wouldn't mind a falafel thread if I'm honest. Tasty.

    I always take the train when I travel to Charlton Life and I always travel on my own. So I was alone on the way back from moderating. There was a carriage full of Lifers. There were a couple of drunk posters who came up and started picking a fight with me. People were screaming in my face. Obviously, the fans were really upset because they wanted the Transfer Rumours thread back as a sticky and we had brought in Kevin Foley with no Announcement experience. I know not all Charlton fans are like this but this was not nice. It was frightening.

    Before this there were a lot of hate emails saying we were ruining the forum and that we didn’t know what we were doing. I understand some of the criticism but look where we were last year and how we have improved with the stickies we’ve brought in: Statbank and Prediction League will be real winners. In the end, what you want is good stickies for Charlton Life. It is irrelevant whether they come from the network.

    You have to remember that it’s just 2% of Lifers who are unhappy. Everyone else is enjoying the changes we’ve made.
  • I think Stig is right.

    There has been a very poor return in terms of players in against the Postings and views.

    It is embarrassing, the thread needs to be swept under the table and the numbers that now total 817K should have been undisclosed from the start.

    They are the forum owners. You just have to accept they do it their way :wink:
