Can you please tell me why you closed the"Just got back from millwall and" thread?. Regardless whether the subject had been raised earlier has no bearing on someones ability to air their views...surely

I think we should ban all posters for starting threads which already exist.

(It would make EW a much more harmonious place)

Love and peace baby

What's the worst thing about coming on exeweb??

Today for instance there's an existing thread about Barry Corr, but someone else feels the need to start another one. The other day, there was a thread about Troy's injury which then included Stanno's injury. Yet someone thought it would be good to start another thread about Stanno.

There are threads about pitch in. Keep it to one.

When things are really bad, there are several threads repeating the same thing.

I am sure the mods don't have all day merging threads and get p*ssed off with it. The same as putting a thread in WOWS when it doesn't belong there (Creds you can shut up before you start ;) )

The good thing with exeweb, you can click on the search option and put in a key word, and ask it to search thread titles only, even specify which forum. It's chuffing amazing. But some people want to start a thread to be the centre of attention I can think of one poster in particular who has started 3 threads about the same player, moaning about the same thing |-)

So IMO it can be tedious at the best of times, when you look on the 1st page and half the threads are repeating themselves

I'll own up to being a guilty party re: posting stuff on the wrong thread (WOWS), but to me, its the only way (albeit brief) of publicising something that you feel is important to all, but you know will get dumped into the Social Club, or Exeweb Developement Forum, as soon as its spotted! (depending on which mod is on duty). Generally the mods have been pretty good, particularly during the close season, but they/she have been clamping down of late. I've got the infraction points to prove it!

Wondering if I'm on a different planet
in fairness, though I don't normally agree with Miss Moxey, I can see merit in a "post-match" thread.

The matchday thread usually has hundreds of posts that accumulate during the game (many of them of no interest). When I get back from the game, I am interested in other people's take on the game without having to wade through hundreds of "ooohs" and "ahhhs" - or more basic language.
