If the first half was all about Summerville, the second half was all about Stavros, Areola and Scarles

Very sad news.  Alex was not only an innovator for football fora, but he was one of the everyday folks who embraced the internet when it was the wild west.  Thank you Alex for being one of the few people who have an idea and actually made it work, not to make money but because it was important to hi...

After my operation in Jan, I switched to Guinness for the colder months.  Few cans tonight after a small glass of wine with dinner.

Stubbo I think you've done an excellent job on setting the site up.  It looks excellent and is easy to use as well as having a lot more features. I certainly appreciate it.  Modding forums/fora is not easy and its time consuming.  Gank was right, WHO phase 1 was the best in terms of moderation, even...

Any thoughts?  You won't listen, but.... A thread has a title, if its political or has political content or music or 18th century theatre, posters can choose to post or not on that topic.  The temptation is to listen to people who complain that content is there, instead of letting them post where th...

I'd not only bring him back, I'd have gopnik themed posts and some bench teknik music as backing.  He was a proper cսnt, but thats what made this site so amusing. A forum, whether its about allotments, football or a mumsnet type site about advanced crochet will always be driven by social and politic...

Nothing wrong with the layout.  Putting Mary Whitehouse stubbo in charge of anything was an amusing experiment.

Sometimes you have to take one for the team, once digital IDs are mandatory you will lose a lot more liberty than signing this

Mike, the digital infrastructure was all put in place during covid.  It was rejigged and renamed as Gov.Uk One Login last march by the DGS (digital govt services) which was formed by Camerons govt along with the Behavioural Insights Team.  None of this is being directed by a government minister but ...

I know what youre talking about but dont remember the site name

Try and go on biblegateway.com its been blocked as a consequence of the Online Safety Act.

This is a site used by Christians around the world to study the bible.

Always thought 1984 was a novel, not an instruction manual.

This country has gone fucking mental

When?

More outfall from the US cutting off funding to USAID who funded all of this shite

I live walking distance to Audley End and went to the Simple Minds show a couple of years ago, it was brilliant.  The concert season there is getting bigger and bigger each year

Ah, Eva! *rubs trousers*

West Ham Gopnik massive, Pickled

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

When obedience means slavery and death, rebellion is freedom and life.

Those whom make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable

Islam should not be banned, but neither should it have any specially protected status via blasphemy or equality laws. Every other religion should accept the same freedoms, but it should be acknowledged that this is a christian country and we should not allow the funding of mosques and madrassas from...

Its fucking borked mate!  Stubbo has made it family-friendly and something he can show to his girlfriends over a warm aperol at his garden party.   Pretty sure the family stand doesn't take kindly to the use of the term cսnt.... So stop being a cսnt about it...the moderation and interference here i...

Its fucking borked mate!  Stubbo has made it family-friendly and something he can show to his girlfriends over a warm aperol at his garden party.

It's actually not about that at all. WHO is essentially directed under the Online Safety Act 2023 as a user-to-user service with a primarily UK based user base. You can agree with the merits of that act not...but the site has to operate in line with it.  Bottom line.  I'm also not the only admin. M...
