What do you guys think about it? Have the quality of the threads gone down significantly like I think they have? It's still great but ****s just getting rediculous sometimes. What can we do to deep six these repetitive/rediculous/bias/pointless threads? Does it have to do with the lack of big fight excitement right now? anyway holler back...

yeah
well kinda
i guess we got
used to the
EM VS MAB
or EM Vs Manny
which are hard to follow
really they set too much
of a high standard

like abdiel put it
there just is'nt anything to talk about right now that we have'nt already talked about 100 times in the past. there should be plenty to discuss after this weekend.......hopefully

i gots a suggestion

make it so that members with at least a 150 posts can make a thread, that way the new members will have been here long enough to know that a thread has already been made.imo that will end the repitivness of it all.

Let's give members with over 10,000 moderator privileges... I can make this a fun place.

i deeply agree , the fix for president

i havent posts in non stop for weeks , the threads are pointless , why waste my time with sturmrules threads or neuraxis klitschkos threads ? it ALWAYS the same and most pepole arent mature enough to REALLY talk boxing

i dont think the problem is sturmrules or neuraxis threads but guys who are brand new and ask dumb questions. also toneytucker should have his thread making privaliges revoked, all of his threads are pointless. and anorak could cut down on all the uk fighters he makes threads about, some of those threads are just his opinion or like a one line statement with a retorical question attached...not really thought provoking

Only thing that chaps my ass........are the people that are responding to **** with 1 line. Like for instance.....if the thread title reads: "Byrd V.S. Ruiz....Fight for history?"

Milkman comes in.....

Pac K.O. 1.

I mean it gets really annoying after a while....especially when nobody goes back to defend the **** they post. Then come fight time....IwatchBoxing comes in with his 1 line predictions...and then starts yelling about them.

like abdiel put it

your right, it doesn't matter what topic someone starts it has already been kicked around a ton.

I like the 150 post idea but is that bad for business?

i think it would be better for buisness, because it would cut down on leeching cause the leeches always make threads about "how to download fights"also it would bring to light the good new posters because they are the ones that would stick around long enough to get to know the boards, the leeches would just get frustrated and leave.

A few of the people on this thread aren't regular posters to the Non Stop Boxing forum... I'm not saying if you don't post there you aren't in a position to criticise, what I'm saying is that Non Stop Boxing is as good as the people that contribute to it. If you're staying away because you think it's 90% full of punk ass kids who don't know their arse from their elbow then it will continue to be so if you don't join in. Shape the forum the way you think it should be.

Personally I think the nadir of the forum since I've been a (relatively new member) was around January, when it was flooded with smack talk. It's come a fair way since then.

and anorak could cut down on all the uk fighters he makes threads about, some of those threads are just his opinion or like a one line statement with a retorical question attached...not really thought provokingIn a sense, I take your point, maybe I do start too many (though largely because I'm bored with what's there otherwise).

Though if a UK boxer has impact on the world scene, then why shouldn't I be allowed to post on it? Remember - a thread is only as popular as people responding to it. If you don't like a thread, let it die.

I have no recollection of a thread I've posted where it's just a one line statement, you'll have to remind me there. As for the threads being "just my opinion" then if I'm the one making the thread, who's opinion should they be? The Pope's?

I don't think they have, but still your putting all these regulations on members who don't have this amount of posts, I think u guys have to atleast let the members under 150 posts have some kind of authority to create topics, that's bs if u don't, let them have some sort of freedom.

Well said, sc21A... while it might get boring to old hands, the forum's there for more than just people who have been here for years. If you try and join the forum and get disuaded, you'll end up with no new blood to carry it on.

I totally agree OG. The entire site has changed significantly in the past few mo's. I dont think it's really about the lack of good fights either...we've gone thru those periods before in the past and things didnt get like this then. Few reasons to post anymore..and alot of the old 'regulars' must feel the same way cause theyre hardly posting.

Non-stop boxing is a veritable wasteland...

perhaps some of those defending it don't realize they are partly responsible for its current state...

Maybe if we made an effort to do our "boxing talk" in member lounges, it would become even more apparent and something would be done.

Again, I repeat: if you think the quality is poor, post your own threads. If the posters you like aren't posting their because "their aren't any good threads" then it's endemic.

wow! i was wondering if anyone was gonna mention it. i didn't say anything cause i figured i would get flamed. i think alot of the problem is that this is the best boxing site on the net and we have all been spoiled by the intellect of posters who have since left. we are now dealing with alot of newcomers and not all of them are veterans to the sport. i feel it is up to us, the "aficionados", to make intellegent post and educate the newcomers. lets not forget we were young and new to the sport once too. this site has what it takes with us, the oldies but goodies, to make sure it lives on.

Exactly. I feel like when I got here, I wanted to prove myself and contribute somehow by making fairly descriptive and objective posts. I'd debate and argue, but I'd never really attack someone because they have a different opinion. I'm sure some of my threads were repetitive, but I have some sympathy towards that because a lot of new people just want to get a fresh response from other members on a particular subject. I'd always try and focus on one aspect of a topic, but I can still see how some threads are just redundant.

If everyone would try to debate and just squash their hillshire after they were done arguing then it'd make NSB 100x better. I also cant stand when people make threads to try and be funny when they arent.

Christ, what an arrogant thread this is... people who love to look down on the work of others, yet I've never seen a single "intelligent" thread from anyone here... all I see is a load of dumb picture threads from Neils in Boxing Scene Lounge, that's all.

As I seem to be the only one defending it Neils, have you got something to say?

Again, I repeat: if you think the quality is poor, post your own threads. If the posters you like aren't posting their because "their aren't any good threads" then it's endemic.

Re-read my post. I believe I did.

I also cant stand when people make threads to try and be funny when they arent.For example?

Bear in mind humour is an objective thing (I'm assuming you actually have a sense of humour) then another poster might think those posts are hilarious.

Re-read my post. I believe I did.No Neils, you implied, not said.

Are you targetting me, that's what I'm asking you. Please don't attempt to patronise me when I'm asking a clear question.

I mean Anorak, people that post just to get a rise out of people...or people that post because they find what they are saying is funny and thats enough for them. I feel like you should make threads for other people to reply back...not for your own personal pleasure. Those threads tend to die out or get flamed.

Like people that make "Vitali Klitschko is a big robot" threads...or "James Toney has ***** tits and is a fat blown up middleweight fraud" threads. Those threads make others not want to post on NSB anymore.

I get you, Oldgringo, it's just that I'm the occasional starter of threads like that.

Not frequently, but maybe once a month or so... only last week I asked if Ruiz should be a Hall of Famer. Yeah, that might not be to everyone's taste, but it's just ONE thread. And if you guys were as **** hot as you're making out and started posting again, then it'd be just ONE thread in a sea of insightful debate.

Christ, what an arrogant thread this is... people who love to look down on the work of others, yet I've never seen a single "intelligent" thread from anyone here... all I see is a load of dumb picture threads from Neils in Boxing Scene Lounge, that's all.

Only a couple have mentioned you, yet now youre saying that you've never seen an intelligent thread from ANYONE here..thats insulting everybody that ever logged on (including those that didnt mention you)..this is the type of **** that I dont want to post around or whatever. We used to have great debates and they were sometimes all out wars, without all the nastiness. It's just silly and a waste of time to try and 'out-insult' others for a different view. Tiresome. the site used to have a touch of class..and NO Anorak, I am in NO way pinning anything on you...just saw this as an opportunity to point out my problem with this "new" version of BS.

And honestly, I dont see why youre getting on the defense so bad man...nobody here has claimed or implied that theyre "Hot ****" either.. :confused:

Yeah, that I DO agree with... but boxing is a sport where you're gonna get people addicted to purely the visceral aspect of it. (ie dumbasses). If people who are above that stop posting, then there's no example to steer it on a finer line.

PS. I take it you have no objection to me having a ***** tits avatar, right? :)

There have been times when I would have LOVED to have seen insightful debate in the forum... but if you're all hiding in this thread saying how you don't post there any more, then how can it change?

Thats a good point, but I think it's more the quality of the actual posters than the posts themselves. Maybe I'm just getting old :D , hell, I dont know. I just remember the days when I loved logging on and talking boxing or whatever with the guys, and now theres just SO MUCH crap (bickering, name calling) I think I've logged onto ESB on accident (and I dont go there!). Seems like a lot of people just dont know how to talk to each other anymore

LIARHmmm... not nice or particularly constructive, Neils. I've asked you to clarify if you have a problem, but instead you want to call me names.

Strange, I've always been civil with you, but now I'm getting digs.

in just went to NSB , and in the first 2 pages i found :

-does boxing reduces penis size ?

-someone tryin to sell a heavybag on e bay

-emile griffith GAY boxer ?

-pacaman still the winner and the best (where a retard explain us that pac loss was due to a blood transfusion he had before the fight )

reminds me why i m not posting anymore .

not even a funny one by anorak BTW ;)

I agree with that.

No I don't have a problem...James Toney has been known to have sagy titties from time to time.

Yeah, this I do agree with... unless you're including me in the principle of that. Hopefully if I get a reasoned response I'll respond in turn.

Again, Tino, this comes back to the fact that if you're not posting, how can it get any better? you have to lead by example.

I thought the Griffith one was reasonable, as you're finding out the socio-poltical history of the sport (in theory, though it's full of dumbasses, I know, but in theory...)

Yeah, the other two are moronic.

Yeah, this I do agree with... unless you're including me in the principle of that. Hopefully if I get a reasoned response I'll respond in turn.

No, not including you...far as I can remember, you've never called me..hmmm, lets see here: *****, slut, skank, idiot, inbred, trailer trash, stupid..oh God, the list goes on and on...thats the point. I dont care to be called names..hell I went to school too and had recess, so thats not new to me. It's the fact that debating here isnt what it used to be..and I feel like I'm wasting time when I'm trying to debate and somebody disagrees and then tries to get personal. My personal life has not one thing to do with the sport of boxing..and it's nobody's business either..which means that nobody here knows if any of the things (insults) I posted above about me are true or not, so why say them?? Just crazy here anymore.
I can hang with the best of them (or try to) but when it's not about the sport and it's all about the type of person they think I am simply cause I disagree, then I'm bored, disgusted..whatever. And, to top it off, when I bother to tell someone that it's not necessary..that they can disagree without calling me all that ****, then I'm being 'judgemental'...halarious!

See, those types of threads are what I thoght the LOUNGE was for :confused: I was under the impression that the NSB was strictly for boxing talk..ONLY. Not anything about their lifestyles, etc. That way when I wanna talk boxing, I can go there..when I want to goof off and talk other stuff..I go to the lounge.

I agree with what you're saying, Tracy... I particularly hate a response to a thread that someone's not really read and so they've made a knee-jerk reaction.

Look - why doesn't everyone on this thread just go back and start a thread and respond to each other's thread? Pep it up a bit?

I also don't think their are enought new threads, everyday its the same topic I have already replied to. And Tracylee your right some of those threads don't make sense in the non stop boxing forum.

And, matter of fact, the last time I started a thread I was called an Isralie settler..and that I hated Muslims, etc. Sigh.... :confused:

I dont post in that forum, but it sounds like the moderators are not taking care of buisness. They need to chuck out the **** threads and keep the posters who post them in check....

And, matter of fact, the last time I started a thread I was called an Isralie settler..and that I hated Muslims, etc. Sigh.... :confused:

Some people love to try to pick fights just for fun by saying dumb things.

haha...see thats the thing. you take a break from nsb just to return and make a post...and then you get attacked and flamed. no wonder good posters like cple, jabsrstiff, yogi, others who have really good things to say dont post very often. in fact, i think jabs just came back today (too bad he was defending that douchebag ray leonard...well, so was i so nevermind).

Some people love to try to pick fights just for fun by saying dumb things.

Dont I know it..crazy. And to think, I came here originally to talk boxing. Being female means I dont have friends that like the sport, so talking to them is not an option. Thats why I come here.

Oh yeah, that was the first thread I'd started in a long time. I usually am too busy replying to others..but that fight between Holyfield and Qawi (and the commentating) got to me..so of course I wanted to share! :D

Hey Mayweather...I dont know if you saw it (you were logged off when I posted it) but on that thread I told you that you could catch the replay of Whitaker-McGirt the next night...did you get to see it? You had mentioned missing it the first time around..

3 days of televised boxing coming up

May 5,6, and 7

MAY 5- Best Damn Cinco De Mayo Period on FSN Griffin vs. Gonzalez.
MAY 6 - ShoBox featuring 4 undefeated fighters
MAY 7 - Corrales vs. Castillo on Showtime's America's Fight Night

MAY 5- Best Damn Cinco De Mayo Period on FSN Griffin vs. Gonzalez.
MAY 6 - ShoBox featuring 4 undefeated fighters
MAY 7 - Corrales vs. Castillo on Showtime's America's Fight Night

So looking forward to that..especially Corrales-Castillo!

I think the best time to talk about these events is the first hour or two immediately following the actual event. The "trolls" don't seem to be out then; probably because they're often not really all that big into boxing...

too bad I'm going to have to watch them all on tape delay since I work all 3 nights...

The way you were acting it was only logical at the time to believe you were an Isreali settler, quite sorry but I was half correct, so dont criticize me.

After posting for a year, I see a lot of the same topics coming back over and over again which is ok I guess since there are lots of new posters every day. As most you guys said, it's most likely the absence of big fights and big rivalries that quieted down NSB. Personally when I log in, I chill more in the lounge these days...

take your beef elsewhere ummmkay. thats a whole different topic...

take your beef elsewhere ummmkay. thats a whole different topic...

No quite sorry, its not a whole different topic, not when somebody posts a statement made by me, that is what you call reintroducing the issue. :rolleyes: mmmmmkay :buttkick:

okay well you got in your retort so lets can it and discuss the sad state of boxing talk these days.

okay well you got in your retort so lets can it and discuss the sad state of boxing talk these days.

Persons acting as Isreali settlers does not do a whole lot to improve the state of it. Nor do *******s who think they can dictate what the discussion will be.

Like Anorak said I believe, if you dont like the topics being discussed in the forum, why dont you post and contribute to it. The forum is what you make it. Your as much responsible as anybody else for what you call the "sad state of non stop boxing" so you can at this moment quit the "hollier than thou" attitude.

I've contributed far more than you have or probably will...and regularly post in there almost everyday. So shut up.

Your trying to blame what you call the "sad state of non stop boxing" on others when you as a major contributor to that board are as responsible as anybody else for what the state of it is. That is a strange attitude. :confused: You start a whole thread basically to slag off others, when you should accept your part in it, and do what you want to improve it, rather than just *****ing in this little thread and slagging others off. :rolleyes:

A few of the people on this thread aren't regular posters to the Non Stop Boxing forum...

i dindt mean that if a uk boxer has an impact on boxing it shouldnt be posted but thats seems to be all your posting lately it kinda gets tiresome reading about why you think frank bruno is embarassing or things like that. i do like a lot of your threads and i ve responded to a number of them.

as far as my opinion thread comment, i meant threads based on fact not just your opinion, it makes it easier for other users like myself to reply. like your thread about the dumbest thing you've heard this week :confused: how do you respond to something like that? or how about this "Remember when Eubank was really hated?" thread you just stated how you and your friends seen a group of kids say that eubank was a wanker and how much people hated him. thats not really a thread someone can reply to because it really doesnt matter.

i dont think the problem is sturmrules or neuraxis threads but guys who are brand new and ask dumb questions. also toneytucker should have his thread making privaliges revoked, all of his threads are pointless. and anorak could cut down on all the uk fighters he makes threads about, some of those threads are just his opinion or like a one line statement with a retorical question attached...not really thought provokingTalk about "two-faced"! Tucker has not done any pointless threads since the 12th of January. Where are all these pointless threads that TNT has done? You can't list them because they don't exist. You are trying to antagonise me.

as far as my opinion thread comment, i meant threads based on fact not just your opinion, it makes it easier for other users like myself to reply. like your thread about the dumbest thing you've heard this week :confused: how do you respond to something like that?I see where you're coming from with that, but it was just one thread. Yeah, in terms of response it is limited, I'll concede. But I probably start three or four threads a day, average. That was just one.

or how about this "Remember when Eubank was really hated?" thread you just stated how you and your friends seen a group of kids say that eubank was a wanker and how much people hated him. thats not really a thread someone can reply to because it really doesnt matter.the only part I will concede about that is that I should perhaps have posted that in the Global Boxing Scene forum as it was more Limey-orientated. It was just something I'd thought about when someone at work had mentioned the guy... he's regarded as a loveable eccentric now, but there was a time in LimeyLand where he suffered serious ill will.

SHEEEESH. This is my thread, dont ruin it because tracy stepped on your toes. :bottle:

I wasnt trying to step on his toes (he's far too sensitive for that!) and I didnt even mention his name, so I dont know why he's crying again :rolleyes: I made a thread about a classic fight, and said that I thought the commentators were biased towards Dwight Qawi, and all of a sudden, for having that point of view, instead of discussing it rationally, I'm called an Isralie settler, that I hated Christianity, and that I was stupid, etc. Only mentioned it to make a point..which was the hazards of starting threads. Finally had to put him on ignore (which I hate doing). That was my point entirely....that when people cant find a better argument, some of them resort to that type of crap. It's so funny really...I MIGHT could understand him starting up again if I had posted "some crybaby, or some whiner, or some idiot called me an Isralie settler...OR, if I had said McKay called me...you get the point OG. ;) It's all so very silly really....and proves the point I was originally trying to make.

Anyway, I came on here today to point out that I'd started a thread on how to maximise the potential of the current heavyweight division: http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34044

This was going back a few days, and as I spent more than a couple of minutes writing it I stickied the thread so it didn't get lost in a deluge of "my stuff on Ebay/penis size" threads. (Though with the Ebay stuff, all you have to do is tell 'em.)

I'm not suggesting this thread is an intellectual dissertation on contemporary pugilism, but at least it proves I do make an effort at least once or twice a week...

we have the tsunami disaster where thousands of people died, we have the sad state of affairs in iraq and afganistan, we have millions of people dying in africa, we have the korean railway disaster, some people say the world is going to end soon. and you guys are *****ing about how good or bad a stupid forum is? get real guys

I can only speak for myself, of course, but my point anyway was the way the site used to be, and the way it is now. I come here to discuss/debate the sport since none of my friends like boxing...and it's gotten to where it's not so much fun to debate anymore...thats all.

Once again, we talk about those things all of the time on this lounge. i dont see a problem with DISCUSSING the things that we see wrong with NSB. Rick Reeno has done an excellent job with this site and we all actually kind of ow him a lot for keeping it up so well. i dont understand why everything is *****ing allofasudden.

LOl, I'm not *****ing OG..I totally see the need for this type of thread. This site has changed dramatically in the last few mo's., and youre only posting what so many of the regulars (from the old forum) are thinking anyway...its well past time that we discussed it I think.

Never Question the Site.

This site is best site in the world.

This site is better now than it ever was.

Hail Reeno. Hail Reeno. Hail Reeno.

Thats what I think...but we're *****ing according to some people.

I already took down Reeno once and i'll give him a rematch if he wants one. gringo KO4 reeno

Thats what I think...but we're *****ing according to some people.

I know..but theres a world of difference in *****ing and voicing concerns for the site that we love. Alot of them werent around when the 'old' site was up, so they dont realize just how much it's changed...and it's natural to discuss these changes I think. You and I are on the same page OG..but there will always be somebody that disagrees! Good with the bad, I guess ;)
I like the thread..and I wish all of the 'old reg's' would post about it..but they are not around anymore, which is the point.

Talk about "two-faced"! Tucker has not done any pointless threads since the 12th of January. Where are all these pointless threads that TNT has done? You can't list them because they don't exist. You are trying to antagonise me.

wouldnt two faced mean i liked your threads at some point in time? hmmmm.... since jan 12th :confused: what about your micheal dokes thread, you could have easily looked that up at boxrec.com same goes for your mitch blood green thread, those types of threads are pointless.

[/B]

i dindt mean that if a uk boxer has an impact on boxing it shouldnt be posted but thats seems to be all your posting lately it kinda gets tiresome reading about why you think frank bruno is embarassing or things like that. i do like a lot of your threads and i ve responded to a number of them.

as far as my opinion thread comment, i meant threads based on fact not just your opinion, it makes it easier for other users like myself to reply. like your thread about the dumbest thing you've heard this week :confused: how do you respond to something like that? or how about this "Remember when Eubank was really hated?" thread you just stated how you and your friends seen a group of kids say that eubank was a wanker and how much people hated him. thats not really a thread someone can reply to because it really doesnt matter.

don't tell me you weren't compelled to comment on the comparison between Glen Johnson's head and a walnut, the stench of Max Schmeling's corpse, or Lewis's finest "masterclass"?

It was someone else that brung them up just recently, so that has not got anything to do with me. Also when TNT did his David Tua's Chin thread I think some people were thinking that I was making up stuff about Tua getting hurt in that fight by a "one two" from Griffis......but I wasn't! Colenel Bob Sheriden said the same thing as Tucker did.........I think that Colenel Bob Sheriden knows a little bit about boxing-you dig. :rolleyes: TripleT's Wearing Wrist Watches thread that was done in the "LOUNGE" was legit aswell because I do wear my watch on my right wrist instead of the left. Later brother brologs.

this better not be a fake fight too

it's not a fight when only one person is throwing all the punches. I just like watching this clown make a fool of himself. He's started two threads about me, one which is closed, and I keep getting insane pm's, karma, and guestbook messages (which I delete other than the karma which I don't know how to get rid of)...

And no one has backed him up yet, 2 days later - including some of his "lounge mates"

some people just have a :

maybe he'll get banned again. or maybe he'll form an alliance with slickhook, automatik, techn9ne, Alisa & Johnny Swift - all other crazed posters who just left the boards after they tired of stalking me...

this is the best forum on the net. With growth and success comes more people to the forums. The more people, the more idiots. The old forums were much better imo only becuase it was more friendly and low key. Not so much drama,etc.

having said that, this is still far better than all the others I've visited

I wasnt trying to step on his toes (he's far too sensitive for that!) and I didnt even mention his name, so I dont know why he's crying again :rolleyes: I made a thread about a classic fight, and said that I thought the commentators were biased towards Dwight Qawi, and all of a sudden, for having that point of view, instead of discussing it rationally, I'm called an Isralie settler, that I hated Christianity, and that I was stupid, etc. Only mentioned it to make a point..which was the hazards of starting threads. Finally had to put him on ignore (which I hate doing). That was my point entirely....that when people cant find a better argument, some of them resort to that type of crap. It's so funny really...I MIGHT could understand him starting up again if I had posted "some crybaby, or some whiner, or some idiot called me an Isralie settler...OR, if I had said McKay called me...you get the point OG. ;) It's all so very silly really....and proves the point I was originally trying to make.

The only reason you came on to this thread was to continue your argument with me. Because I whipped your ass the first time and you quit and gave up when I explained to you that your **** only works when you have numerical superiority of voices. So your trying to recruit allies to try to slag me off now because your **** only works when you have numerical superiority of voices. You try to pass yourself off as being reasonable and nice and sensible etc... but your really quite keniving. You should just left me on ignore and left me alone, now your starting **** with me again, and have the audacity to call me the instigator of it. Give me a break lady :rolleyes:

who mentioned **** about david tua or or wrist watches? take it easy, the fix just mentioned a couple of your crappy threads dont take it personal the fix didnt mean to hurt your feelings all TF meant was too bring insightful criticism.later brother brologs :cool:

don't tell me you weren't compelled to comment on the comparison between Glen Johnson's head and a walnut, the stench of Max Schmeling's corpse, or Lewis's finest "masterclass"?

LMAO
that ****s too funny

Tracy you carry grudges for far too long, and how do grudges of pesonal hatred and other hatreds contribute to the forum? I will tell you how. They dont contribute to it at all.

Wow, no wonder I play 'hit and miss' with the Pinoys so much! :eek: Oh Tat used to post back at the old forum..but she stopped mo's ago. She's a real sweetheart of a person..extremely kind. I've said it before and I'll say it again, in her own way she's much too good for this place (far too innocent). I'm sure you'd love her if you got to know her ;) Anyway, if I'm not mistaken, theres boxing coming on..FNF (better than nothing)

I don't have to know her. The way you said it made me fall in love rigth away. Wait are you saying that she PMed you but she did not post? Are'nt you good for thids place too. I wonder what you mean by being too good for this place. You mean horny bastards are all over this place? I'm a virgin you know....bwahahahahahah!!! j/k. :D

She writes me from time to time, but I've not seen her post in ages..what I mean is she is too sweet and all of us are too crude (rude)..hell, I fit in just fine! :D Lol, that reminds me of the time she said I cursed alot :o ..really, she's so sweet and innocent that the content of alot of the posts around here shock her and she doesnt like it (I gather) but maybe in the future she'll post a line or two..I'll ask her when I talk to her next ;)

Got it miss tracy. You described a real sweetheart if i may say. I'm not convinced that you are rude or crude though. I say you talk real nice to us and that's all that matters to me. I haven't cursed for a long time btw and I don't intend to start again. I just ignore people who cursed instead of cursing back. One poster here tried to come strong on me but i just talk to him back in pinoy and he stopped. I wonder if he is wondering what the heck did i say? bwahahahahaha!!!! :D

[QUOTE=Anorak]Christ, what an arrogant thread this is... people who love to look down on the work of others, yet I've never seen a single "intelligent" thread from anyone here... all I see is a load of dumb picture threads from Neils in Boxing Scene Lounge, that's all.[/QUOTE/]


You speak for yourself dude!!!!!!!!!.......Rockin' :boxing:

it's not a fight when only one person is throwing all the punches. I just like watching this clown make a fool of himself. He's started two threads about me, one which is closed, and I keep getting insane pm's, karma, and guestbook messages (which I delete other than the karma which I don't know how to get rid of)...

What an absolute load of ****ing bull****.

Here's the FACTS:

1. Neils insulted me not once, but TWICE on these boards with no provocation from me. But Neils is a victim?!!?

2. I sent Neils TWO pms, and two pms only - both of which were polite and asking to resolve the situation. I got an arrogant, dismissive response back and the insults continued in this thread before I lost my temper. The Karma was the same day.

3. An obssession? Sorry, but Neils is the one continuing this. If he wants it over, all he has to do is shut is his ****ing mouth. As for people "backing me up", I couldn't care less. You're a prick, Neils, and that's good enough for me.



The Neils handbook guide to arguing:

1. Insult somebody for no reason, then refuse to resolve the situation amicably and in an adult fashion.

2. Keep on insulting the person, but never address them directly. The important thing is, you can insult people, but do it like a *****, so that you can't get answered back. (See also: The banned thread, where Neils slags off people who have been banned, and therefore have no right of reply)

3. Always use other people's pictures instead of backing up any point you made - pictures are always a great substitute for any absense of wit (See also: The desperately tired "picture threads")



I tell you what, Neils - I ****ed your mother. But apart from that, I'm so "obssessed" I'm putting you on ignore, prick. I've got better things to do than argue with some ***** who starts an argument, makes out he's the victim in it, and then won't back up his threads. You're such an arsehole. Cunt.

Incidentally, as a point to everyone, all you have to do with "old" threads is point out that there's a "boxing history" forum, or get a mod to transfer the threads over, leaving a shadow in the old forum. People will soon learn, and react accordingly. Sitting in this thread moaning about it will get nothing done.

As for the "Lewis masterclass" thread, as I'd never even noticed there was a Boxing History forum, I posted it in the most prominent one.

Just because a fight took place a few years ago, doesn't mean people have seen it, and doesn't mean that they should be denied the right to talk about it when they do. Remember, the forum is there for all members, not a minority of "old hands".

thanks for the backup - I wonder if Anorak is wondering "what's a dude got to do to get banned in this forum?"

I don't have to know her. The way you said it made me fall in love rigth away. Wait are you saying that she PMed you but she did not post? Are'nt you good for thids place too.

you fall in love with everyone.

BTW, thanks for the Valentine. I didn't mean to take so long to reply. (this is where I would insert a smilie if I did that sort of thing)

neils7147933 This user is on your Ignore List. That's better.

That pic is halarious Neils..reminds me of my kid, who always has something to say! :D I showed it to her and she's still laughing!

feel free to use it on McKay if he persists...

What do you guys think about it? Have the quality of the threads gone down significantly like I think they have? It's still great but ****s just getting rediculous sometimes. What can we do to deep six these repetitive/rediculous/bias/pointless threads? Does it have to do with the lack of big fight excitement right now? anyway holler back...

I agree completely.

The quality of the threads here in the lounge are even worse.

this is the best forum on the net. With growth and success comes more people to the forums. The more people, the more idiots. The old forums were much better imo only becuase it was more friendly and low key. Not so much drama,etc. having said that, this is still far better than all the others I've visited

I agree Dave. But I also think the majority of the posters were knowledgeable boxing fans and the posts themselves were generally high quality.

These days I'm afraid the scales have tilted in favor of the dumbasses. And I agree that the reason is the overall success of the site. An ironic yet common problem.

feel free to use it on McKay if he persists...

for real! I'll just leave him on ignore....he should realize all his efforts to 'get' to me are wasted unless someone quotes him..I cant see the posts :D

No, not including you...far as I can remember, you've never called me..hmmm, lets see here: *****, slut, skank, idiot, inbred, trailer trash, stupid..oh God, the list goes on and on...thats the point. I dont care to be called names..hell I went to school too and had recess, so thats not new to me. It's the fact that debating here isnt what it used to be..and I feel like I'm wasting time when I'm trying to debate and somebody disagrees and then tries to get personal. My personal life has not one thing to do with the sport of boxing..and it's nobody's business either..which means that nobody here knows if any of the things (insults) I posted above about me are true or not, so why say them?? Just crazy here anymore.
I can hang with the best of them (or try to) but when it's not about the sport and it's all about the type of person they think I am simply cause I disagree, then I'm bored, disgusted..whatever. And, to top it off, when I bother to tell someone that it's not necessary..that they can disagree without calling me all that ****, then I'm being 'judgemental'...halarious!
