I appreciate people are anonymous on here - mostly anyway - but can an admin/mod PM me please? I can't work out from the member list who might be one! Feel free to delete this thread once we're in touch.

Don’t blame him. I’ve managed a message board. Being piggy in the middle to a bunch of squabbling adults is not the fun job you might imagine.

Given the admin power, I'd block everyone and this board would just be me posting constantly about moving the away fans to the town end unopposed.

A little while ago there was a post from a potential new member having to use a friend's ID because his request to join the board had been ignored for some time. So I'd guess that Admin isn't exactly checking the board daily.
Also the fact that he's left hbs's bloody politics thread alone, despite it clearly being in the wrong section and many of us asking for it to be moved, would indicate that he's not that bothered any more.

Many years ago (mid-90s?) I used to use a West Ham message board, and it became apparent that the admin had given up checking it. But we carried on using it for years.
In those halcyon days, internet users were most IT people, universities, etc, so you didn't get the madness you get nowadays, so the board didn't really need policing. Plus it was a 'home made' board where anyone could post - you didn't have to join, so we didn't really need an admin.
Eventually, we exceeded the storage capacity for posts and it stopped accepting new posts. But one of the members was IT-savvy enough to hack the board and delete the posts, so she got it working again.
I can't remember what happened to it in the end - I think we just got tired of its limited flexibility (it didn't even support threads!) and collectively moved onto another, more sophisticated board.

I got back from hols and one of the people in the prediction league seems to have deleted their profile, just trying to work out who it was so I can save myself a line of updating every time.

Changed my username and appear twice. I thought you'd changed your name! Been strugling for weeks to remember what it was, but my brain seems to have been replaced by foggy cotton wool...

Changed my username and appear twice. PM me and I’ll merge your scores - assuming you’re still playing or are happy for people to go all Columbo (ask your granny kids!) to identify your new nom de plume.
