Anything resembling pessimism/negativity (Aviator's post earlier as an example) is just met with either brazen abuse or 'Budgie' - it's making the forum a bit tiresome. A well known and 'respected' posted called me a C U next Tuesday last week but it doesn't seem to be that out of the norm. Are we all so stressed with the end of the season that we're taking it out via our keyboards? I've been a member for a few years now and it's currently the most unpleasant it's been in that time - albeit still a good forum in comparison to many others.
Not innocent either (although haven't sworn at anyone) - but why it's so fractious at the moment I have no idea.
Given that I don't think the site has anything in place to identify and safeguard U-18's (will apologise if I'm wrong), we could all do with pondering whether we'd be happy setting this example to minors. |  |

It does become annoying for posters when pretty much every post is followed up by someone making such a claim. |
It's more annoying reading constant streams of negativity to the point you are convinced someone is deliberately trolling or a fan of Norwich.
We got to the point with Frimley that a player's dad had to step in and stand up for him. How many people put them on ignore or stopped turning up here because it got too much?
I think if someone is being labelled a troll or a budgie then they should look at what they are posting. |  |

How can I prove to you that I'm not a Norwich Supporter? Perhaps you could set me a little quiz? |
You're missing the point, they clearly said "If he is an Norwich supporter... they’re more than welcome."
Perhaps start with... "why do people think I'm trolling or a Norwich fan?" Or "What is it that I'm saying (or how I am saying it) that induces a negative reaction in others?" Address those and you'll be fine, budgie or not. | |

Indeed. The three options are that (a) they are a Norwich fan, (b) they're a troll, (c) they're just a really, really sh!t Ipswich fan. If you are any of those things, you should probably reflect on your life choices rather than complain that people think you might be one of those things. |  |

He just doesn't realise he's a Town fan yet. |
oi! |  |

Context is key.
A negative post is often fine if it's well reasoned.
A posting history full of negative posts is likely to be called out and an explanation sought.
For Aviator, you've taken offense on their behalf and totally ignored context.

I can understand your annoyance at that. You're not a simpleton, so I'm sure you're fully aware that you are a Town fan. |  |

I'll take the not a simpleton bit as the highest of praise! | |

I've explained why it's not but you're too stupid to understand. |

I think this might be the first time I've been propositioned for 2 decades. | |

 It was so obvious I couldn’t resist. I’m just surprised Keno or Hoppy didn’t get in first, so to speak. | |

That GiantStow fella. I have a feeling he's a Norwich fan.
But he loves us more. |
They all wish they chose Blue instead of Custard. |  | | |

Fair point. Base smutt is more Keno’s thing isn’t it? Whenever there’s a chance for a double entendre, he’ll always give us one. | |
