Also anyone who uses the word 'innit' or 'schnizzle' (sp?) should be banned for life for pure naffness.

Surely there is a limit on the amount of football threads that can be written in relation to a shitty provincial team 15th in the third division though?

When there is something relevant to say about the Albion, it is inevitably at the top of the first page and goes on for many pages.

The rest of the time NSC fills a valuable role in helping the time pass in our dreary little jobs, and that normally involves talking about anything that comes to mind, which is not always football.

As for the spelling/grammar issue, command of your native tongue and how it should be communicated is usually (but not always) an indicator of the intelligence (or lack of it) of the poster. I don't know 99% of the people who contribute to NSC, but can start to piece together something about them from the way they post, and that includes their ability to use written English. It may be wrong, but I suspect I'm not the only person who takes such an approach.

Indeed. You know that people whose posts read something like "what hapend in the 2nd half we was all over the place kuipoers is shit and hawkins is rubbish adams should of brought on a striker" are the people you see standing in the corners of pubs dribbling and talking to themselves or aimlessly punching the fruit machine.

And who REALLY wants to talk about football all the time? Or even most of the time?

**Geek Alert**
Credit where it is due, you do start threads (at least in August and at half term so I'm assuming you're at school or Uni), and many moaners grumble about the quality of posting when they don't even post. So let's take a look at your last 13 posts:

Is this a Fans forum or Social network??
Your All Dumb (claimed it was your "flat mate")
JPT Sweepstake 2008/2009
Glenn Murray (insane rant about how GM is a waste of money)
Cheerleading
UEFA Cup Sweepstake 2008/2009
Who was born on your birthday?
Greatest Cover Songs?
Fascinating Question?
Carling cup 3rd Round
2 New Signings?
new housemate
Cuban Taekwondo

Football threads in black. Non football threads in red. Loosely football related in pink.

I can only assume you were having a bad hair day when you started this thread or as someone else pointed out, you feel the need for a bit of attention. So don't say we don't care - you've had some.

In the old days before NSC was a networking site picking on spelling and grammar, we used to call that 'owned'

You obviously went to a Grammar School.

I did actually, but it was in the late 70's, and for reasons I could never fathom out, we were never taught ANY grammar from the day I arrived. I blame the HIPPIES.

i think a compromise might be having two forums, one strictly for Albion/football the other for off topic shite like favourite flavoured crisps and such like

Well? from the looks of all todays posts i would say it's a poor fans forum.. for one most of the threads have nothing to do with Brighton and 2 when someone makes a valid point or makes any mistake in his spelling all of you pounce on the chance to demoralize them! We're all Supporters of Brighton (I think?) so why not be nice to one another and support their views, after all thats why people come in here to give their opinions and see other people's opinions...

So thanks for your time and ill look forward to reading your smart comments on my spelling or grammar and by the way the thread started the other day was my brother not me..

Oh great. Another non Brighton related thread! :thud:
