These guys used to be regular posters and keen to discuss football , but I haven't seen them for ages on this forum.

General Ashnak

Thupercoach

Xtra Time

Kapoaw

Ton Of Bricks

Cool Kat

Mister Football

Neanderthal




Surely they haven't all been banned?

Mr Football oh man that guy, I wonder how he's dealing with the flood of AFL is dying articles.

Cool Kat wasn't he a gaz gold coast multi?

I thought Cool Kat knew more about football than Gaz.

What do I know though? I've only recently realised that some multis are the same person.

What has happened to Gaz?

Life.

I took a break from football whilst attempting a PhD, fucking about in Europe and getting back into the live music scene in Melbourne. Got bored with those things, came back to football because the FFA cup was exciting. I'm guessing it's a similar story for most of those guys. Some peoples' interest in things just waxes and wanes.

I thought I had seen GA on once or twice in the last few months. Maybe I'm imagining things

You must keep extensive dossiers on posters, decentric... you don't even know if they are real people or not:lol:

I wouldn't be suprised if they were banned. JoFFA is a small man with a lot of power here. Got a 6 month ban for sharing a stream.

Seems fair.

I don't.

I've talked to four of those guys via PM, and interviewed another one for a football article.

Maybe you are right.

I'm gobsmacked that you lost interest in football. I thought you were one of the keenest members on the forum.

Ton.of.Bricks is still around, he just created a new identity (ironic considering his paranoid delusions about multis).

For GA I think life got busy. He still posts on WATR though.

GA mostly sticks to Twitter these days.

Quite ignorant of me but I just straight up don't recognise the names Xtra Time, Kapoaw, Ton Of Bricks.

Cool Kat was the one who just wound up Bowdz, yeah?



Cbf checking his last 10 posts, but I too seem to think this happened also.

It might also be a question of outlook.

I think the idiosyncracies and experiences of many unique personalities, adds to one's involvement on 442. I'm pretty easy going and am tolerant of many views, unless people hate football and constantly denigrate it.

One notices the missing input of some posters when they are not here. The diversity of thought, yours included , makes 442 an interesting place.

I'm pretty gregarious off forum. The greatest thing about football is the social interaction one encounters at games and the milieu in general. I'd surmise you are less gregarious.


Many members of 442 have social contact off forum, which I think is what football is all about.=d>

I met up with one 442 member and we had a lot more in common than football. It was a great night.

I was going to have three 442 members, I'd never met before, who were on holiday where I reside, round to my place to watch the last Socceoro game. The only problem was it was in the middle of the night and one of them said they would be at a distillery all day.:lol:

My better half would've been unimpressed.:lol:

If I had not been working, I would've liked to have joined them at the distillery.:lol:

I 'd guess you would never do any of this, being more suspicious of people.

Ill back that up. When I was a laser programmer I would always post on here during the day. This was way back in 2007-08.
Then I moved into production office and pretty much lost track of this place for a long while, probably around the time GCU started. Wasn't till only recently my job changed again and I find time to be involved more.

You don't think it was a culmination of all the bullshit that you spout in every post and that a stream is the final straw?

When I'm teaching, I honestly would not get one second in a day to think about this forum at work. It may even be a sackable offence to visit it too.

I would've thought most people were too busy at work to post at all on 442.

My posting is done exclusively outside work.

Ryan, to TSF's credit he has done a lot for the forum in setting up an excellent thread on Australian underage teams recently.

We've even recruited two new 442 members who are Joey parents, which makes for very interesting insights at the games on the ground.

It 'd be even better if he forgot about Joffa.

I agree with that, forget about Joffa and the Phoenix being in the A-League.

Benjamin is great mates with Kapoaw and Ton Of Bricks. They share a lot in common.:lol:


Xtra inspired me to set up a football school for migrants. He has done some wonderful charity work overseas in conjunction with World Cups and football. I'm astonished he no longer posts here.

In general I think Nix fans should be made to feel more welcome than they have. It makes the forum more diverse.

Perhaps some diededd.

Or more likely there is 10 people on this forum with 10 accounts each and they stopped using some.

At my age one doesn't joke about this.:cry:

I go to so many funerals on a regular basis.:cry:

Death could've occurred in some cases. We'd never know.

I have my agendas and its fair enough if people dont agree but when I was helping someone out...6 months? c'mon.

GA mostly on twitter and around when Adelaide United games are played.

Don't know why RedsUnited no longer is here too.

That's not a concept I enjoy.

Can understand if a lot of people have left because of all the trolls on this forum who seem more intent getting their post count up or starting arguments and calling it 'banter'. It seems impossible to actually have a conversation with anyone on here anymore, without it somehow devolving into some bullshit or another.

You're right.

I've been part of another forum for as long as I can remember and a while ago they removed the date joined and forum posts column because it was used a wankers tool of authority by some. With that it gave a perception of equality to the new users.
