Rout and others are right (well not about Bunting, he looks a royal arse with that one). The darts world is going to be a duller place without the BDO - and the online scene certainly will be. Yes, it goes over the top at times but some of the banter is mighty.

Not just at times.

Taylor, Harrington, Bristow, Tommy Cox. The list goes on of PDC personalities who are so insecure that they have to take a pop at the BDO all the time.

Sadly, the PDC's fanboys have followed their lead. Want a bit of light banter and a good discussion about darts online? You are out of luck. Page and page, tweet after tweet, post after post, of abusive trolling. Not just against the BDO, but also against anyone who is brave enough to suggest that the BDO isn't the second coming of Satan.

Kids? Women? Family Members? Disabilities? Nothing of off-limits to the trolls. Absolutely nothing. These are fully grown men who have so much time on their hands that they not only count ticket sales, but also ring up the venue and spend every waking moment following social media platforms searching for material to add to the trolling spectacle.

If the BDO folds, what will these people do with their lives?

Using Tommy Cox's name is a new low, let the man rest in peace FFS.

And yet here you are; with post after post batting the ball back. If it was as bad as you state you wouldn't be here. The fact you are, and have been for years - shouting back from the other side of the fence - means you are no different to any of the rest of us no matter how desperate you are to state otherwise. You are here for the banter and trolling like all the others and always have been. You talk about others taking it too seriously when you went to the bother of getting digital calipers to measure segment sizes so you could win the internet. It's good to have you back, btw.

Bunting is a quality darts player. You cant base a judgement on a handful of PDC games, which is what you are doing. Or sorry, you are telling us all to wait and see. Well I dont need to wait and see, I already know he is world class based on his already significant achievements.
You are refuting things I never said. I never doubted the man has talent or courage. I also never said he wasnt world class. What I said is simply that there is insufficient evidence thus far to state that Bunting in a top three player in world. I don't believe that he is - top 16 almost certainly but top three - ridiculous assertion at this stage. In actual fact I don't even believe Bunting is the best player in the organisation he just left.
Wowsers at that point. :omg: :omg: :omg: :omg: :omg:
Both at the top of their game I take Scott Waites as a better player than Bunting all day long.
This post is almost as absurd as Routs top three post :grin:

Waites has won a PDC TV event which is more than Bunting has :)
