Absolutely.
The amount of comment on Amavi, Ayew and Gueye on here is astonishing given I'd wager 95% of VTers (including myself) have probably never seen them play. I don't mind the odd comment but the sheer volume of nonsense ruins the thread! If I can't see quotes or pictures as evidence after a minute of reading I leave the thread and wait for the news instead.
I'm not sure if Designer 1 introduced you to VT or not, but as (I could be wrong here, but from seeing a couple of posts) he's your mate in real life, he should have warned you about "on topic". I get the impression that Aston Villa has a large percentage of supporters who are regular self-harmers.
Haha, nah I was a poster on here a long time ago under another name and it was similar (not as bad) back then too. I love VT as a site, but not for On Topic discussion, sadly.
