And it appears that some see their forums as the only thing that matters in their life. I hope that wasn't aimed at me. I genuinely try to get along with most here, not create any conflicts but it's not that easy when 2 certain individuals are always trying to pick on you. Don't even know what I've done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used the term n..ga not n...er and got reprimend real quick. I don’t mind sticking to the rules but @Rab set the standards when he banned me for complaining about getting racially abused. This forum is all yours now and @Stan aka “yes sir, Mr white guy” I see a lot of random rambling again, but I'll let you know that I am not the biggest fan of BartraPique's behaviour, and I've been critical towards him for a long time. I'm not even sure if he's actually German to be honest. But think you're making too big a deal out of pretty much everything. I know you and your pals see this all as banter and you have your inside jokes and you're all having a hell of a giggle. But don't forget that everyone on this site is a human being. Not everyone reacts the same towards said "banter". Some may shrug it off as that, but others might take it a bit more personal. So, a basic principal, and something a wise man always says on this site is: be nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This forum is all yours now and @Stan aka “yes sir, Mr white guy” Listen. I banned you over 5 years ago on a completely different forum for ban evading. Even if I did ban you for complaining about getting racially abused, it was over 5 years ago. Do you think people go throughout their whole lives without maturing and seeing mistakes they made in the past? Of course some don't, but most do. So if you feel like you need to hold some sort of grudge against me for something that happened over 5 years ago then feel free my friend. Although, I have done nothing to upset you on this forum. I've attached a screenshot that'll perhaps help you refresh your memory. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make it sound like you're the only one who suffers from racism in this world. I'll tell you, first-hand, you're really not. Either outside of the internet or on it. We all come here to have a good time hence what makes this such a great community - but you're also not the one who feels it to be a pain to post on here these days sometimes and you and your 'buddies' make it part of the problem. What has happened in the past has happened, and can't be changed. Maybe we all need to grow up in some way and put it behind us and not keep coming back to it as 'grudges'. It gets us nowhere.

Whilst this place is great, there are a handful (no names mentioned) that seem to literally take it as live or die kinda stuff. Do any of you actually go out of the front door or have real people to talk to? The amount of cringworthy shite on here hasn't been laughable it's just been sad as fuck.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted January 19, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted January 19, 2019 I've been around for about 7 years since TFF. I've seen a lot of excellent drama in that time. A lot of us that were in a similar age group of ~18 at that time are still around now, which is pretty cool, though I think everyone has changed an awful lot it's a rare thing that despite that, the majority of people still come back and get on well, maintaining a friendly relationship and actually knowing each other pretty well on a personal level despite most of us never having met each other.

There were loads of Geordies back then, more than anyone else by miles. There was also quite a few Brazilian members if I remember correctly and I used to discuss Brazilian football with them.

Taught me?, no one besides perhaps Chris as we used to chat a lot in both languages has taught me anything, and much less you, you twatic mong. I knew English beforehand, just not as much as now, having spent 8 years in a mostly anglophone forum. At least i had the excuse of it not being my maternal language, but i remember you used to suck both at Spanish and English, having spent all your life divided between Peru and Canada... 17 minutes ago, Stan said: I think @Berserker got taught the wrong type of English to begin with My English used to be very yankish at the start, now it has become quite a nice blend i must say..
