you mostly see the same names of the same forums, not many posters are regular posters on more than two forums or more, for example most names down here you don't see on the football forum, why is this? you must have interest in multiple sports or at least one away from this one

Most of the other forums tend to be populated by people who think they know what they're talking about but actually spout utter shyte. There are some good posters on each of them but they're far outweighed by idiots.

On this forum, talking utter shyte is seen as a positive!

I would take the chit chat forum against any other in an intelligence test. I frequent here, horse and greyhound racing the most. I do pop into rugby, cricket and football as and when games are on that I'm interested in.

General betting would win any IQ test hands down, chit chat would come second imo, poltics forum are quite bright, if a little eccentric, football forum is a free for all, the aussie forum would ask what IQ stands forLaugh I jest Aussies I jest, love you reallyGrin

People imo post in what forum sits well with their personality and interest as every forum has a different vibe so people post where a)they feel comfortable and b) they can relate to the other posters , sense of humour / interests / things in common maybe.

I bounce between this, football and tennis, but main interest is tennis, don't really have friends online as I 'm not really a regular poster and have to work, there are some people I like some I think need to be sectioned, acqueisce being one themGrin

I prefer chit chit because I feel comfortable conversing with other like-minded cross-dressing lorry drivers.

The Specials forum is the most extraordinay place and far and away the most fascinating if impenetrable forum.

They have there own language, obscene ramping is de rigeur and cheered.   There is a tremendous knowledge accrued in the place on past events and trends etc but it is couched in double and triple bluff.  The posts per person per day are off the charts.

Not a bad bunch, they get along well and are helpful.  But there is a whiff of a raucous Brighton hairdresser's Coach trip to Calais for cheap booze about the place.  Sort of a parallel universe.

because of my age I am scared that betfair may make a new rule and have an over sixties forum,so I move about so I can be classed as a regular on all the forums and i never spout utter shyte.

I used to post on specials when I hammered the Specials markets years ago

Remember a guy Posted ,Ramped, and Spammed all he could, very well also for an entire series

at the end of it all there was a Profit / Loss thread

He'd made 50p per smiley Happy

I wonder if betfair charged a penny a post to go to a charity and taken out of the available to bet balance ,how long would it take for the forum to grind to a halt.LaughLaughLaughLaugh

Money Tree could stop a runaway locomotive. It's just uncanny how many he grinds to a halt.
