What about someone trying to expose an exposer and celebrating it as a "job done" in all caps?
Seriously now, you used to be quite cool in the past. Your posts from a few years back. What happened? When did you decide you're gonna be an ubertroll instead of giving to this community in a good way?
^^^ there he goes again, more character assassination, guy is just relentless
Nah, nothing much, DStyle. Just acquiesce12 trying to wind people up and trolling. All CAPS words for extra emphasis and smilies included.
wasn't acquiesce12 complaining about the content of the megathread recently?
Dstyle
I complained about the mega thread ruining the forum
Then, I was ambushed by multiple posters who use the mega thread and they started to go off on a complete tangent which for me emphasised the whole point,they are spammers who care not for other people, but because they are professional trolls they make it look like I;m the ad guy....I give up.

Yes he is. He was the very first person to change the topic because he simply couldn't resist insulting some poor foreigner's level of English. Someone who has to live in a cardboard box ffs. How low can you get? That guy has bigger worries than writing in perfect English.
noffy, if you were going to make a match thread you should have made one for Genie/Kate imo as there already is one for the guys. Feel free to use pics from my database if you choose to do so, Maka is dressed as a cat in the only pic I have of her.
phuck off edy it was because nofx was basically saying I was unintelligent, yet more phucking twists on the truth ffs, 60,000 posts, no point arguing with a serial idiot who can go on foorever

i didn't say u were unintelligent i said u were an idiot
What are you talking about? He never basically said you were unintelligent. Don't lie! Or you really that bad at understanding posts? He directly called you the village idiot. No basic or hidden stuff to it.
he said he didn't know why intelligent people were talking to me, which means he didn't think I was intelligent unless you are saying he didn't know why intelligent people were talking to another intelligent person then that would not make sense FFS

didn't say that either. and it's rude to refer to someone in the third person when they're around, didn't ur mother tell u?
same PHUCKING differer - and anyway, that only EMPHASISED MY point that instead of addressing the point he calls me an idiot too" than you edy
That was on topic by him. He shared his opinion on the discussion that was going on. You then immediately chose to derail it
good thing u use caps or some might be missing ur strongpoints
Anyway, this is getting BORING and EMPHASISING words like this is so SUPER LAME and KINDERGARTEN style of WRITING. I'll leave you alone and go to a proper thread.
FFS WHO GIVES A PHUCK ABOUT THIS STUPID PENDANTIC PHUCKING POINT

Betfair please BAN these complete and utter waste of spaces

yes good edy, phuck off back to the mega wh0re thread, bully and a spammer
I will also have to leave because the real tennis is about to start.
i don't like the megathread either acquiesce12, but there is chicken/egg situation here.
did the megathread arise because the number of active posters decreased and a small group of very active posters got fed up switching between threads, or has the megathread been the cause of the lack of activity on here.
i'm afraid it's probably almost certainly the latter. individual match threads in the second week of slams really don't generate an awful lot of posts like they used to.
if you don't like it, all you can actively do is create and contribute to match threads, and hope that if they're active the megathread lot have the consideration to move their match discussion there.

sorry, i meant to say the former is almost certianly the reason: i.e. a general decline in forum activity.
I have been saying this for ages the mega thread has ruined this forum
It's the same old goons up all night talking to each other,
I do worry about them.

The biggest blame is that bf have closed down the forum except for letting some people trigger in after having been active for 6 months.It's only natural that people from I don't know how many years ago leave and move on - and do so not because of any specific threads.If you look through the pages, people had long moaned about the forum going to the sh1ts long before any mega thread had ever been opened. Userbase had already gone down dramatically and with it the quality of posts.I can't deny that the mega threads, as a sympton of the dying forum, has accelerated the dying process, but they are certainly not the primary cause and even without them I very much doubt the forum would be that much more alive. It's not exclusive to tennis either. All the other subforums are deserted compared to what they used to be as well. That is without them being plagued, destroyed and haunted by any mega threads.
This is what I posted earlier, which probably got lost in the entire mess and acquiesce choosing to derail his own topic. Please behave from now on, lad.
You just really knew the forum was going down when good ol' awesome jimmy chose to leave for twitter. Again, long before any mega threads ever came around. Not like he went away completely, he's very active on twitter, but just couldn't be arsed with this place even then anymore.

I'm pretty sure social media such as twitter has driven people away from message boards and forums in general.
What did I just say about behaving from no on, acquiesce? If you got nothing to add to the discussion, please refrain from posting.
Yes, I do agree caramba. I think twitter is unacceptable with its 140 character limit however. Especially because it includes the twitter handles of whomever you're tweeting to.
Acquiesce, please. We're trying to have a grown up discussion here. I've told you before. You either finally start behaving and add to the discussion at hand, or I'll have to report you. I don't want to, but what you are keep doing to this thread is not acceptable.

This is precisely what I have been talking about, this is the kind of stuff that killed the place, edy talking absolute sh it just like his mafia and him do on mega threads, and now he's tryig is hand at the passive aggressive technique to make himself feel better, phuck me he's probably never had a day off from here since 2006 the saddo

I feel the same way, but there must also be people who used to be active on forums who doesn't mind the 140 character limit.

Twitter certainly has its advantages and I love it as a way for tournaments or players to communicate with fans. I will never understand its use for discussions however. It's clunky and uncomfortable. Maybe there are some extensions that make it more comfortable, but in it's default state it's a no-no.
gives me a headache every time. good message board indeed (like the original meaning, not internet boards eh) but that's about it

jimmy is cool, he went on holiday recently though and was sorely missed 
When I first found jimmy on twitter I was all like "Gosh, he's super handsome! I'd have never thought!"
Only later did I find out his twitter avatar at that time was some tennis player.

should try to impersonate qqqqqw next, now that's a challenge! (even though qqqqqw wasn't actually a troll)
acquiesce12, can you impersonate Yang please? I miss Yang.
ha you got my post deleted, you must know people in power to do that so quick.
or you used your multiple accounts to get it automatically deleted by complaining enough times.
you really do run this place, quite sad

biggest problem on forum is lack of excitement and enthusiasm about tennis. guess it comes with limited number of users but seriously is difficult to find person to have some good convo about tennis stuff, players etc.seems like no one cares about tennis here lol. which is big shame but is just reality and not much to seethe about ,just pointless sometimes to come here.
forum slowly started to die since darlo gone.thats the real reason of forum descent

i stopped posting years ago and randomly popped in today to see ,that most of the old addicts are still here... maybe just more quiet. glad to see that some of you have survived
Schalke 04 doesn't do mega threads, or thread titles with an uneven amount of stars on either side !!
Darlo needs to come back, Tennis forum used to be a good crack dunno what happened really.
aaronh aka Zala is the leader of this teenis mafiya clique you speak of.
He is a well known dangerous and evil chancer.
A Brummie too.

The problem I have. Is when I post a separate informative thread. About the only active user I see who doesn't post in the mega thread is bb66. So he is about the only person it's easy to take serious when they say the mega thread is stopping them from posting. There are probably a few others (DStyle maybe), but they are few and far between.
A large majority of the people complaining have no real intent to have any discussion at all, and just what the information in the forum laid out in an easier manner for them. Basically they want the forum to their liking without having to do any of the work to get it to that point.
Besides the reason the mega thread come about in the first place. Is because you used to have situation where you'd have like 3 match threads going on at once and you'd get like 20 posts in each. People weren't interested. Plus if you look at the other forums they are all pretty much dead too. The football forum would used to get like 200-300 posts on like a 2. Bundesliga match, now that's what it gets on Man Utd playing.

so where has everyone suddenly gone then, 3 years ago was alive and kicking, what have i missed
DStyle probably made the most reasoned argument, and I think most the reasonable posters realise this. Most the people who start these type of threads tend to be the super trolls who would add nothing no matter how the forum was setup.
Because membership is effectively closed and has been for about 2 years.
So how many posters from 3 years ago are still active now? Less than 50% probably.
The daily setup is different to say grand slam semi final day on a Saturday too. The forum reached a point where the majority of days it was the same group of posters posting across multiple threads. If there only about 3 of you active at one point of the day that is incredibly tiresome.

YES i must have been trolling when i made a novak-murray thread......AND what happened then n88? you and the rest of the mafia ONLY posted in the mega thread

Because someone spambotted the forum and kept creating new accounts. Or something like that.
That's the #1 reason for a lack of users. It was completely closed until about 6 months ago, when now they have a new policy of allowing people to post on the forum. But most people who fit their new policy probably already have forum accounts (it's basically that you have to be an active bettor over a period of 6 months I think).
If you go in smaller sub-forums than this one. Eg. the boxing forum. The exact same thing happens there, except there's a group of about 5 people just having discussions, and instead of their threads being named as mega threads they are called whatever the next big fight is. Of course this setup is more viable when you only have like one discussion point every few weeks.

I added one of the few reasonable and measured pre-match posts.
HTH
I also count exactly zero in-play posts by you, while caramba and me tried to get the thread going during the match.
cycling forum is well structured, only few users, but high level discussions during 3 weeks tours
The cycling in itself is effing boring, but the landscape. Oh the landscape 
I should introduce you to my mother she watches because of French castles too, you two would probably get along
edy I am not an owl, unlike some I need my beauty sleep.
Never seen you contribute in any other in-play discussion either sadly.
oh, there's your very first one ever in the Djokovic-Nishikori thread.
Good going
Good going
i've only been her two weeks AFTER 3 YEARS and also there have virtually been NO THREADS that is the WHOLE POINT edy, THERE ARE NONE and I refuse to contribute to the MEGA wh0re thread
No indeed nofx. We ain't in no need for no beauty sleep. If acquiesce insists on needing lots and lots of it to be even half-way presentable I'll have to take his word for it I guess.
why do you always write wh0re instead of whore like a lil kid?
Oh, I forgot you need platinum forum membership for that. While the forum is not actively measured, the administration team evaluates posters from time to time. If they see you display a high standard and an exceptionally high level of maturity over a certain period of time, they'll lift the forum filter for you.
