Why have so many posters left this site?

Post Big head »

Anyone speak to the usual mob who used to flood this place on a daily basis?

Me personally I had a kid, went through hell and back then started up back in Estate agency, so only really now got more time to post albeit now and then, mainly because it's so quiet on here now days.

Nurse is blatantly OMM. It's quite funny and slightly weird when you watch posters trying to flirt with him and still haven't caught on after all these years.

Maybe we could start stating our pronouns before posting a reply or starting a thread, it may attract quite a few new younger users to the forum?

I was in nick for a 13-stretch.

One of the first things I did after I came out was log on here.

It's gone downhill.

One question that I haven't seen adressed as yet is have other 'old school' forums seen a similar decline in traffic considering the ever-changing landscape of the internet?

It would not surprise me at all if this represented a more widespread decline.

What a sad, pathetic, empty life they must lead.
Being wound up by nursey must be really embarrassing, then?

And way way some post their spite & vitriol on here, I'd question their percentage of male-ness.
Male-ness??Does that include your love of cock under flock?Chick's with dicks?
You seem to need that to be the case for some strange perverted reason. Got the Alberts to explain why?

I don't mind Ratched and if it turns out he/she is in fact a He, well who really gives a fuck, and if its the same poster as Cabbage Savage, then bravo to him, erm Her? CB is quite funny IMO, be also quite apt in this fucked up woke and DEI day and age that WHO had a tranny posting 🤣

Personally, i just see WHO as some kind of virtual online Pub for lack of a better description, people i like and agree with, others (IMO) who are fucked up and deluded, been cunted and fallen out with few and done some cunting of my own😁 throw in a few oddballs, piss takers and attention seekers its just like the local from my days living in the UK!

Gone off the football a bit, West Ham needs no explanation but football in general has gone downhill, all about big business and making money, fans a distant second, used to subscribe to PL coverage then last season didnt bother renewing and just watched highlights on YouTube, this season i don't even do that, check the scores and shrug, watched our opening game in a bar on Rhodes whilst on holiday, fuck that was depressing and honestly cant be bothered now, maybe feel more up for it if we found some form, but im not sure of that even 🤷‍♂️

This site still has great threads from time to time and its moments, and this thread is coming along well!!!!🤣👍

If you'd prefer me to use them in a way you would yourself employ, then:

Yes (brackets). (Round) brackets. (Or parentheses).
I'll accept parentheses ().

"[" & "]" are technically the right thing to use in written text but that often confuses people for whom English is not their first language.

You forgot curly brackets for a full set though. Here's a pair for you to cut out and keep for future use...{}.
