After 6 years posting usually complete and utter drivel I have decided to stop posting on NSC. I did not know whether to do a final thread but I thought I would as NSC plumbed the depth's yesterday.

The general dis repect and bullying on NSC has become very bad recently. I am big enough and ugly enough to take it but it seems a general trend now. I know a lot of very good people who used to post on NSC but have been " hounded " out and feel they cannot post anymore. Its a great shame.

I know I have been controversial, moody, wildly up and down and abrasive sometimes but I hope i have not posted general insults in threads to specific people. I have been critical of the football , films, music, whatever but not directly insulting people. It seems now there is far too much general insulting of posters for no good reason. Frankly life is too short. I am not the only one who thinks this. Some major posters are thinking of finishing. I can accept people have different tastes but the constant flow of abuse about people, films, RACE HORSES and everything else I hold dear means this site and the posting is no longer pleasurable.

The final straw was the Desert Orchid thread yesterday. The comments on that were frankly a total disgrace. And I notice a comic genious has posted a new thread " Is Desert Orchid dead ". How fecking hilarious. NOT.

It was " only a horse " but a special one and again fond memories I had were denegrated and ruined by very childish people with too much time on their hands. This thread was a microcosim of how NSC has become.

I have met some great people through NSC over the years specially with the REMF which showed the greats NSC can achieve and loved the ramblings of Easy 10, the intelligence and abrasive posts of LI, the blistering honesty of some people on here like On the left wing and El Pres, the brilliant mind of Lord B and the cut of thrust of posts with Chapman and other adversaries but it has gone beyond friendly banter and is just abusive on most occasions now.

Hopefully this will not be regarded as an attention seeking thread but as an observation of a great site which in my opinion is going off the rails.

Up the Albion forever.

If you really are going to stop visiting /posting that, in my view, would be a great shame.

Thanks for all you have done for the REMF; not quite so many thanks for the spurious racing tips! All the best.

don't go, I enjoyed the creative posts you started with horse tips. Fair enough they didn't win, but they were funny. :wave:

As if (because I'm such a BULLY...?) - it's a desperate attention-seeking ploy which we've seen and enjoyed many, many times before and will do again. I'll buy you a pint if he doesn't post again within a month.

And remember: horses are people too.

He's started ganging-up on me now. Is there no end to this madness :down:

Gareth, why should you leave?... As far as I am aware you are not the one going round singling out 1 poster to rip the piss out of?... Stay, don't be forced off by those less mature than yourself... Fair enough we've had some banter in the past but there are limits.
