This forum - your opinion please, especially those that don’t usually post!!

[Skewball]

Because seasoned poster just ridicule new posters who try to make valid points, its like they are scared of new people, so they scare them away by trying to make fun of them. I would love to have a bit banter and chat on here but the same few people always have to come up with silly responses, and at the end of the day who needs to put up with that eh. Plus has MVG won this yet isn't funny anymore

Can you name the posters who got ridiculed and scared away?

You have probably just proved his po8nt sadly.
New posters need to be encouraged

Long time member, very occasional poster, like to have a read through the threads and to be honest a lot of the time things I would post/reply to have already been said by someone else. used to play to a good standard but just play pub darts these days, quite a lot of my friends play on the CT so looking at maybe having a go at that next year with them. I intend to post more and will join in whenever possible.

Look forward to you posting Sir - it would be great to get a few more of our regular ‘readers’ posting.

Would be great if you did start posting - trust me, we do our best to let everyone get their opinion across, without being railroaded by others.

Always been a problem. Certain posters jump on them.

A lot of it is Ginge talking to himself, but whatever keeps the place ticking over!

[Ginge]

Madsocks was wrong.

[ChrisW]

Madsocks was wrong.

Madsocks never posted on this particular issue. On certain posters jumping on new posters to intimidate them from not posting again.
Do you think you have ever done this? Honest answer please?

[Ginge]

Have you had a drink, missing Ian, or both?

[ChrisW]

Not able to answer the question as usual.

[Ginge]

I probably have.

Have I scared as many people off as Ian? Doubtful. Ask the mods which name crops up most as a reason people dont post.

[BlueSpark]

Well we didn't scare thelad away

You are in denial unfortunately.
The difference is ifm may prevent people from posting.
You try and prevent people from continuing from posting who have decided to start posting.

Example from recent times.
New Poster
Welcomed by a mod
You ' Hahaha de Preston so funny do it again etc etc.
This has been going on for years.
So make your own mind up what damage you do to new posters coming to the forum.
