Voinjama Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 The arguments in the main section of the forum are getting vicious now. Stating the obvious here but the worst the club are doing the more bitchy the forum gets. Don't think it was like this in the MON top 6 days.

useless Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Maybe if the people who come running here to moan about 'on topic' were to post in it then it wouldn't be so very bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stating the obvious here but the worst the club are doing the more bitchy the forum gets. Don't think it was like this in the MON top 6 days.It was probably worse in the MON days after Moscow (February, '09) than it was in the non-top-6 season, tbf.(though the 2 losses to Rapid Vienna (1 of which was under KMac) were probably more damaging).

Give it another 6 months or so and you'll understand I don't like the way I've written "the people who come running here" but all I meant is that if you don't like the course of the conversation in 'on topic' then you've got the means to change it via your own contributions. I'm trying to make sense not sure if succeeding. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaggy Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Perfect sense and a valid point. I'm sure if the team was doing well then those who are complaining would no doubt want to post a lot more in the main forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post troon_villan Posted April 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2014 Off topic is the main forum. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Xela Posted April 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2014 People take it far too seriously though. At the end of the day, its a game and I have no control over it. None of us do. I love to see us to well and get annoyed / disappointed when we are shit, like the last few years, but it doesn't have a massive impact on my day to day life. For some people it does, and I can't reconcile with that. There are far more important things in life than football. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 For some people it's like an extension of their ego's and they let it dictate their emotions far too much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 If you try and change the topic you'd probably get told you're lowering your expectations of conversation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ginko Posted April 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2014 It's not like everyone who posts in On Topic is bad, in fact most topics start off with some valid points and it can be a healthy discussion, but eventually there are a number of posters who either don't listen to other people's opinions, mock people or just target specific posters that they have previous with and the thread descends into a childish, back and forth argument which ruins it for the rest of us. Off Topic is a lot more silly and laidback and is the main reason I come to VT. I like the people and it makes me forget about how terrible our football team is right now. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 13, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted April 13, 2014 That's why every thread is the same. Any valid points are swallowed up by the same posters posting the same things at each other. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have actually. It didn't work lol. I'm not as articulate as you guys though, you might make a better go of it although sounds like you already tried. Ah salute.

dAVe80 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Oddly (or not) I very rarely use Villa Talk to talk about Villa. Don't want to upset anyone, you guys are all wonderful, and I'd be happy to talk Villa with any of you, but I use another site for my Villa needs, and come here to talk about what ever deranged shit we happen to be discussing in Off Topic.
