Wums and Idiots

The internet has proven to be brilliant as a vehicle for the acquiring of information and the exchanging of opinions and ideas.

Unfortunately it has also been a godsend for keyboard warriors and individuals with Napoleonic Complex issues.

Sir Timothy John Berners-Lee has both a lot to be praised for and a lot to answer to.

The main problem I have is the amount of dam good contributors we lose on this site because of having their articles ruined by these idiots

I would be the only poster left if they got rid of the WUMs and idiots.

Keep the idiots. They're a bit of entertainment.

WUMs I just don't get. They seem to exist only to convince everyone that they are vvankers

We should name and shame the idiots. I have a long list to name. That said I am sure many have me on their list too.

I don't mind a bit of arguing to be honest but what I don't like is people who just wum and don't ever contribute.

Take chicken. I actually think he is a very poor poster due to his stubbornness but he actually contributes or attempts to contribute towards football discussion. Therefore it's fine having him. Rather than an idiot like tcp who has nothing relevant to say ever. Or the ones that pretend to be Spurs fans, like Arsey

The idiots simply can't help being idiots. Not an awful lot that can be done about them unless admin want to introduce some sort of eligibility test based on how smart you are.

The wums are just pathetic though. Hijacking numerous articles, creating their own articles with the sole intent to get people to 'bite', and those who just post the same old tired crap over and over again add absolutely nothing to this site.

I visit this site most days but all too often a seemingly good article will get hijacked by some sad individuals who turn it into a slanging match that completely derails the article. This probably stops a lot of decent posters from contributing.

Having said that there is also some good banter at times and some excellent articles and threads so I guess at the end of the day we have to some extent have to take the rough with the smooth.

I joined the first day this site was open , I was the 125th member , have a look at the recent joiners numbers

There are thousands who have left

I think a bit of banter is fine, normal people do have banter in real life. It is when to draw the line though. I myself like to indulge in the odd bit of wumming shall we say. But I also like to think I contribute a fair bit on the footie front as well.

I sort of agree with you but plenty put a lot of time and effort into posting a very decent article only to have it ruined by some idiot

That's where the OP can click on the users name and press the filter button. Completely blocking them from commenting on your articles.

To be fair the idiots posts can just be deleted or filtered. Most have now been banned from the Spurs board anyway.

posted on 6/12/15

squid,

I say get rid but they create a lot of forum traffic which the Admins need, hence why posters like Maf and Chronic still keep their memberships.

Yes you are of course right but don't ask me why it just dosent seem right Im cracking up

I do have a bone to pick with you .....How do you let a poster continue to post with a disgusting username....TBH no wonder we have hardly any Ladies on here

posted on 6/12/15

The best way to deal with wums are to ignore them. Tiki-taka, Maf etc all thrive on the attention, just as Durham does on TalkShiiiite. Either ignore their posts or just get their wum articles pulled.

I dunno, that's one of many reasons probably. Can't even think of the poster you're referring to.

The nature of young testosterone driven lads, football and rivalry leads to the dynamic if the site. A degree of pragmatism is needed.

I don't think there are enough posters on here , TBF admins have done great work and I thank them for sorting this site ,
