Nashwan used to be on all the time, haven't seen him in yonks.
Nashwan posted under FAT FACE EFF for a few months, think he got banned in the end for telling the tallest stories ever told. There was a poster on the football forum called Nashwan's Tall Tales, who basically ripped the proverbial out of Nashwan, who was very funny indeed.
It used to be superb on here, lively debate, simmering feuds, nutter conspiracy theorists. Anyone remember Anders77777 - he was truly mad.
Also, does anyone remember Lady P's thread about her neighbour's cat? One of my all-time favourites, and you were never quite sure whether she had done it, or was just winding everyone up, because she/he was of course certifiable.
Dunno if he has been mentioned already, but Statman was a good guy - once offered £100 for a quiz, to be paid across the poker table. I won it, and fair play to him, he coughed the ton, although he didn't quite understand poker, and called my all-in when he should have folded, leaving me needing a middle-pin 4 for a straight to win. Of course Betfair poker being Betfair poker, it duly arrived on the river.

forgot about stemac, the tesco king. Strangely compelling tales re: the banality of shopping.
That would be an interesting concept - betting on quizzes and paying the money via betfair. Get Nibbs on the case.
Hello Tucky. Long time since I've seen you! Hope you are well.
Yes, I remember Statters with great fondness - especially when he came in from the pub, roaring drunk and usually roaring at everyone and playing in his FG quizzes.
Happy days.
The last I heard of him he was going on a round the world backpacking type trip - but fully expected to be murdered somewhere along the way!
I really hope he wasn't, and is enjoying life and a pint under a banana tree somewhere now.

I haven't played any quizzes on here for ages, but the new forum must make them a bit of a lottery surely? It would be like that Two Ronnies Mastermind sketch.
Oy yes, Stemac is very much missed too.
A great character.

Tucky, Mr Nibbs has set up a new site for them and they're going down a bomb. Very fast and much banter to be had.
He mooted the idea of hosting one tonight at about 9-9:30.
Have a look on this forum around that time if you're interested.

Morning tt - surprised you're still going. Are you still damaging yourself in unfeasible domestic accidents on a regular basis? I hope you are OK, too.
Now - for the real issue. BRING BACK SNAKE PLISSKEN!!

My broadband speed precludes my involvement in any quizzes at the minute tommy - it would probably be quicker for me to send a pigeon tbh - but I might pop along to observe if I'm about.
UTI - there wasn't any betting - Statman put up the money himself.
I'm still here - injuring myself as ever, Tucky!
I had 'boggled' head syndrome not long ago - which propmted my doc to exclaim "Crikey O'Reilly!" to, when he heard what I'd been doing!

Yes, please pop in if there's one going, Tucky. You'll enjoy it.
same sentiments dobbo. its lost its character, and its characters.
I see tucky. I was thinking somehow you could have a quiz with a £2 entry fee say and they somehow pay it up on betfair (minor money laundering) and the winner takes the kitty or something like that. Have no idea how it would work tbh - just thinking out loud.
I expect your doctor has his own column in Lancet tt.
I have never heard of boggled head syndrome, but then I don't suppose your doctor had either.

Iconoclast is still here, but a watcher. I know that as there was a horse running by that name a few months back and I started a thread asking if anyone remembered him and he posted. hadn't seen him for years.
No I didn't.

loomboy!! Nice to see you. I trust you are well.
UTI, you would think that could easily be arranged. But then, you'd think pressing the suspend button as the runners leave the gates could be easily arranged too.

To explain the above, the iconoclast account is still open but dormant. I tried posting as iconoclast, using the old user name and password, but it has come up under luddite. Great security, Betfair!

For instance, if I was QM, I try to lay England 1st innings runs to get 100 at 1.01 (they'll defo get 100). Anyone wanting to take part then puts £2 on. Say 10 people do that then I win £19 after comission. Then the winner trys to lay England 1st innings runs to get 200 (presume we've scored that many runs by then) at 1.01 for £19 - I then put the £19 quid and he gets about £18 in his sky rocket after comms. Have I missed something? would that work logistically?
People could take part in the quiz without paying of course, but wouldn't be eligible for prize fund. It is just an idea and relies on trusting the QM of course. It is also throwing 10% of the money betfairs way and is perhaps even illegal to "lose" money on purpose. And some people would claim it takes the "fun" out of quizzes and they may well be right - Stewards Enquiries would be v.stressful. Perhaps not many people would want to take part if they feel they have no chance of winning so perhaps a handicap quiz would be the best way.

At first glance I reckon that would be feasible, but as you say, stewards' enquiries may become vexatious.
Judging by my experience of snooker tournaments, handicap quizzes would be open to any amount of skulduggery - for instance, you might just get people answering "Muhammad Ali" to all the questions just to get their mark up for next time. Best keep them fun imo. But then I don't play them any more, so my opinion is worth sh1t.
Has anyone got a link for the new quiz site?

What a shame. No longer will forumites be able to praise themselves, and then in so doing see that they have used the wrong name. You may remember the classic exchange between Rachel and SUNDANCEKID, which went something like this.
SDK: How you doing, Rachel?
Rachel: Great thanks. And all the better for chatting to you, SDK.
SDK: All the girls say that, Rachel ;)
SDK: But it's true, SDK. I think I'm falling in love with you.

Re: the new posting stips with multiple accpunt holders, there have been some very funny incidents in the last few days on the racing forum, which has always attracted some proper weirdos who like to talk to themselves on here all day.
SDK was completely deranged, to be fair to him.
He probably died in a tragic hang-glider accident in his "orchard"

Nope. SDK posts as JoeJordan. Less frequently, thankfully. He used to be a 500 posts a day man.
I remember the orchard, and the quarter mile he had to go down his drive to put his bin out.

Yes, although paraphrased, not verbatim.

Someone said that sdk still posts here, surely not? I've yet to meet someone anywhere near as narcissistic as he was,he'd stand out a mile.
Though there is someone ^ on this thread who's quite annoying, but not up to the 'kid's' level.

I'll have you know that SDK is third in line for this forums All-Time Number One Lothario Award.
Just behind Each Way and Fresh, two front runners with whom no mortal man could hope to compete. They wooed so many blokes pretending to be women between them that I think they once bummed each other in confusion.
I still laugh at this 5 years or more on...

That is true Brother M , i think Banning may soon be a thing of the past as for the determined ones the 'Life Bans' last about 16 hrs at the most on the football forum now.
Devlin, the main football forum loony at the moment, has had 4 forum names so far this month (no exaggeration) , having had christ knows how many before that.

ha ha, was just trying to think what his latest name was , join date earlier this week, when i noticed he has yet another new one, join date Mar 12 , and is on here posting as GOAL-GOAL-GOAL .
They probably identify the ISP and ban him, but they can't be permanently blocking posts from his pc as he just gets another card the next day and comes back on here.

Nice to read this again. Many who posted on here have ALSO fallen by the wayside, sadly.
Was there a forum in summer of 2000 either here or on Flutter,
because I'm absolutely certain I dipped my toe in a forum discussion
for the first time ever, about the Big Brother/Nasty Nick
furore that was sweeping the nation?

Dobbo was one of my favourite posters, I just hope he is OK. I do recall he moved to Bruges but his bookshop there didn't work out and he moved back to Hereford. In my top ten of posters on here.
Here were the 2004 petitioners

Why don''''t we get Betfair to take a democratic vote about which forum to keep alive? I don''''t think we''''ll get them to bin the new site but the forum is just different class on the old site and it MUST be kept. Has anyone tried navigating round the new forum - it takes forever and is completely non user-friendly.

Why don''''t we get Betfair to take a democratic vote about which forum to keep alive? I don''''t think we''''ll get them to bin the new site but the forum is just different class on the old site and it MUST be kept. Has anyone tried navigating round the new forum - it takes forever and is completely non user-friendly.
Absolute garbage. ........SAYS IT ALL REALLY..

Completely agree Billobaggins. New Forum is bloody awful. This one is so much better.
Very user friendly, quick and easy to use, not like that new cumbersome thing !

Good list Tobers. I think the only ones left from the opening list are Foinavon and Slippy.
Not seen Dobbo for a long time.
Not seen Dobbo for a long time.
Dobbo sent me a crate of racing books about 12 years ago before he moved to Brussels, he was in his 70's then kenny mann so I'm thinking he is perhaps no longer with us 
silly sausage Slippy. He's not 70 yet, I know that for a fact. ;-)

luddite, since the forum update, logging in and out won't change forum names
Caught out a few posters who used to reply to themselves
What a shame. No longer will forumites be able to praise themselves, and then in so doing see that they have used the wrong name. You may remember the classic exchange between Rachel and SUNDANCEKID, which went something like this.
SDK: How you doing, Rachel?
Rachel: Great thanks. And all the better for chatting to you, SDK.
SDK: All the girls say that, Rachel ;)
SDK: But it's true, SDK. I think I'm falling in love with you.
Mad me smile (with nostalgia)

the opening post, can't help but notice how short nearly all the names are, was there a character restriction or somthing lol
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The names were definitely leaner and meaner in those days!
Is there a forum name any shorter than mine?

Any this lot still around?
I profess to being one, but do you know which one?
