    LOL!That thread is just priceless:D

    Could be a tongue-in-cheek wind-up though.

    Also A can't be as bad as F although I don't know who "Bradley and Feilhaber" are...

    Can't we just resurrect the thread in WR,please?

    I guess Stanley Villa was allowed to create the thread with his first post because he phrased a thread on the same old subject in a "unique" way...:p

    Well what about making sure that noob posts are actually contributing? I know it's not an easy thing to monitor but I can't be the only one put off by random postings here and there from people that have just joined no doubt trying to get their post count up.

    I present exhibit A:

    https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showpost.php?p=12003865&postcount=265

    Exhibit B:
    https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showpost.php?p=11387386&postcount=220

    Exhibit C:
    https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showpost.php?p=11109153&postcount=209

    Maybe make posts that contribute nothing don't count?

    Was just a thought as those posts do bug the crap out of me.

    There are lots of posts made by veteran posters that don't contribute anything either. We call it the Rivalries forum.

    i'm new here and its really frustrating that i can't start a thread.
    so what if some people start bashing america? we all get attacked at some stage, i mean the aussies have had a lot thrown at them lately.

    if someone is gonna moan about this or about that, how can it matter whether they are new or not? plenty of long-time members critisize and have a go at others, doesn't seem logical.

    i've had some good ideas for various threads since joining here, but i'm forced to wait to be able to show you how brilliant i am.

    No but it gives you time to get familiar with the board. You will start to understand what info goes where.

    Look at some of the other threads people have posted. It shows why Newbs should not post

    seriously, when is a new member allowed to start a thread?
    i may of missed it but i can't find a reference to it anywhere, and i suspect most people wish to know the answer at some time or other.

    What kind of message do you get when you try to create a thread?

    Do you get "You haven't licked enough mods' asses since you joined BigSoccer.Please try again later."?

    well i'm really not surprized.

    this forum is exactly like most of the other footy forums on the net, it contains absolute wankers!

    big men that hide behind stupid names and their pc screens.

    a little abuse can be a bit funny but you guys are novices. if you want so GOOD football abuse try
    http://www21.sbs.com.au/wgforum/viewforum.php?f=2&sid=fd8ed44e6689292b664d23aadc3d1a67

    by the way midorit i understand why you are like you are, its all about penis size isn't it?

    being from japan you would have what is known in the medical circles as a 'micropenis.
    this usually causes the owner of said 'micropenis' to abuse other men coz they have what what is called a 'gigantor-penis'.

    sorry for your disability mate.

    Juan lives!!! :D

    And elbecko, it is an indeterminate period of time and posts. Post for a week and you will be able to start threads. Of course, I'm not a mod here and could very well be wrong!!
