Capello

Whats the deal with you mate? Are you a true Chelsea fan? Are you disguising as a Chelsea fan? What is it?

A lot of people have lost patience with you including myself? Be nice if you could tell us the truth instead of faffing about and writing a whole of guff which makes no sense.

We will pull the trigger on your account after the next valid complaint against your account or your next "Dear Admin"
==========================================h!, what can I do to be saved?
-----------------------------------------------

Nah, we are cool. We will close your account. Go try another forum, that is a Win/Win for us and you.

You wont be getting a response Mr C.

Aaaand he's gone

Capello is on the wind up, get to the chopper, nuclear submarine, military co-ordinator, great romancer of women, no wait, i'm a woman...

And he pretends he used to support Arsenal but switched to Chelsea in 2004.

How's he not a WUM?

There we two complaints asking for me yo ban you in the last 10mins.

Admins, did Sir Bubbly ever email you for an unban? I remember he was banned for something like this.

RVPsLF. We ban about 50 accounts per week. I would struggle to remember.

I had banned one account between this article being created and Capello getting banned.

I thought Bubbly would stand out for you, he was a long term poster on the United board.

As well as receiving an email(asking to be unbanned) between this article being created and capello being banned.

It really isn't a suprise the Beeb pulled the plug.

Bluedroog - I admit, I am not the most serious of posters sometimes
..................................................

And "The Understatement of the Year Award" goes to Mr C

You really should start recruiting staff Admin

If you made it cost £1.00 to register?

Our board would be dull if all articles were serious but the non serious articles need to bring something to the party.

In recent weeks the balance has gone off kilter

And the balance is key.

There we discussions around taking a nominal £0.01 from a pay pal account/credit card so we could link accounts directly to people. But the site also needs to keep growth and new accounts coming.

I dont have paypal and im not going to be ars.ed into making one. And i dont trust the admin with my credit card either

Yeah, that is why we had discussions around it but never implemented it.

Isn't there a way where you can put Wums in moderation like old 606. That way you can filter comments before it goes on post? Would cut down complaints although I imagine that would put a strain on workload?
Or if this is possible is there a way to lengthen the time a wum posts? Give them 10-15 mins between postings?

I think a lot of people would be surprised at how off put many people would be by even a nominal charge (say a penny).

Then, even if £1 was changed to register to generate a revenue with a few thousand members it is never going to be enough to cover a salary for the site owners to get an extra pair of hands, and that is assuming the charge didn’t affect the numbers. Of course you would also need a continued revenue stream.

I think Admins have mentioned advertising at some point, I presume you guys have day jobs or are students or something?

And how about making them more instantly recognisable? Instead of a blue banner they go yellow, orange and then banned? No second chances or pleading, it’s set out clear for all to see and both them, their ‘supporters’, other posters and admins are all singing from the same hymn sheet.

We are IT consultants who have blown a fortune on a vanity site that has taken up an incredible amount of time and effort. As essentially the all the first 130,000,000 page-views have cost us money. The ads will need to arrive soon enough.

Have you considered a donate button? I'd be happy to and it can't do any harm can it?

We nee to generate about £100K, so donations would be a drop in the ocean.
