+x+x+x+x+x+x+xSounds good, in case this forum ends there is another avenue to go given the rise of these bots. i think it's time to jump already. This forum was always about the game and the community and about fighting how shit the forum software is. I mean, not even being able to change my avatar anymore or having to click to reveal a like on each post? HAving to wade through 30 spambots is the nudge we all need Not sure if you've joined, Bohemia? We have about 20-30 members from this site already posting on it. Some of the same recurring threads like Aussie Abroad, Weekly A League round, WC 2024 Q Campaign, NPL section are already active. Actively soliciting other posters to join the other forum crosses a line and is distasteful imo. See your angle but disagree. This forum has not been actively maintained for a couple of years. There are basically no mods. The site functionality is poor compared to basicaclly any board you encounter including php boards AND due to lack of maintenance, buttons don't work. And as a sign of how much the admins care about this place: We have run a thread of active re ruitment for people to leave this place and they haven't even noticed.I'd see your point IF this site wasn't basically dead already. I also want to point out.. this place is Inside Sport. Did I ever get a say in that? I was on 442 then suddenly I was a part of some NRL/AFL forum. I never had a say in that. If we can get passed around like that, then we're entitled to pass ourselves around as well. I don't care about the owners of the site and agree it has been neglected. I'm more thinking about Bowden and the community of active posters that may wish to stay here. I think something needed to be done and it’s good to have an alternative. I also appreciate Pasquali's initiative setting it up. It's why I contributed ideas and signed up. I just think soliciting posters that way lacked decorum. Getting everyone to move over is the way to go imho. It’s clear this forum won’t stay live much longer. I get error codes anytime I try logging in, it’s why my posting has dried up over the last 12 months. I started my account here when it was 442 back in 2008 and I’m fine with a migration. The community assembled on this forum is great, who cares what the url is as long as the community is maintained. There are so many people here who came together as a community, originally from oz but many off in every corner of the globe, getting together no matter the timezone, living and dying in a 'roos match thread. That sort of thing is important enough to keep going.

If someone makes decentric a mod I'm out forever. No doubt Pasquale's inbox is buzzing with PMs from old mate. Don't accept any offer from this clown please. It will just lead to a sanitised, censored shitshow. This forum is essentially self moderated and it's great the way it runs now. Only the biggest fools get banned.

+x+x+xD2, look we all know the background re here it really doesn't need to be spelt out for us. Your troubles on the site could be due to your own server/vpn who knows, whereas I can edit my posts when in need without the prob you are experiencing, I'm expect I'm not alone. The only main issue I have is the thai bots loading up the forum. I agree I feel for Bowden the lone soldier and its very admirable of him, thankfully he is as committed as most of us being active in here and keeping together, strangley we are kind of a team/family of passionate misfits :). I just feel till push comes to shove then I'll 110% move completely but I don't need to see someone encouraging the exodus as yet. Your just upset because you weren't included on the list of desirable new milieu posters.... :P I am gutted got to say - like being left out of the start up squad ffs, fark the bench I bring on the experience ! Where is this list of illustrials you speak of?

New site not loading for me today even though I registered the other day. I am in Zagreb at the moment though. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. Off to big Dukes Cafe today to see if I can find the big man.

So far I’ve only offered mod position to one user. I need to make a rule page first though tbh as I’d prefer it wasn’t on the main page,

He owns it so he doesn't work there. Only pops in now and again. When I asked the bloke behind the counter he said he was in first thing and that was his wife that walked out the door just 10 minutes ago. There won't be a third day. Off to Opatija in the morning. Google that place. It's pretty special.

Why don't people just join an established forum like Big Soccer instead of creating a new forum for 20 people?

More active than 20 people in a forum. But how much regular discussion is there about Australian football (other than the Aussies Abroad thread) on there? Doesn't look like much from my glance.

Most the posts I see on there are from 2018. The site doesn’t look very pretty if aesthetics are a concern either

Going to join. But any reason why there is no general football chat board instead of so compartmentalised?
I would've thought with small numbers to start a general board will be more engaging.

I get starting something that interests you but you need traffic making it worthwhile. In the meantime tsf join so you have the account, it sure does work way better.
