Ha, that was also after that! Same job as the letter one, so 14 years since that as well.

Im sure the really early days on here we didn't have accounts as such and we could just post anything and it was a bit of a novelty.


I think it was that way for ten years or so but a combination of message boards, forums and social media becoming more widespread bringing about a more pervasive culture and the development of better conduct on here with a realisation that some of the personal clashes had a bit of psychological damage attached has seen this forum become more sociable - perhaps in contrast to the bitterness elsewhere.

Ahhh I’m used to it

Probably been on here nearly 20 years and had it all and more!!

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, I never take this place seriously and I always give people the same advice, unfortunately a lot do take it too seriously haha.


Been here over 25 years and don't be rude or insulting has been my mantra. I've seen all the pile ons and it can get toxic quickly. People need to learn to take a step back sometimes. This place has been great but it's only a forum at the end of the day.

Wise words. There's been a fair few 'big beasts' among us TWTDers who have risen to a place of prominance for various reasons. A surprising number of these have fallen under the 'Ham' Hammer at some time.

One of the problems is inherently that no individual poster can ever see everything that goes on, so those not on the receiving end of persistent unwarranted abuse from certaion individuals over years - decades even - can have a very one-sided view of some posters that's misguided, but it isn't their fault for getting that picture.

Dollers will return if he has just self removed. Never understood why people ask to be removed rather than just don’t come here of their own volition but it seems a bit of a thing. Each to their own and all that. Hope you’re well, dollers.

Hopefully lord lucan is also back on these pages soon. One of the more interesting, engaging and pragmatic voices here for a very long time. Plenty we don’t agree on personally, but he’s always been very decent in my experience. Maybe it’s not just his fault with some of those he’s not seen eye to eye with. Bit of a pile on today. LL, hope you are well also.

100% it was Lucan’s fault last night. It was a blindside from nowhere and shockingly obscene. It wasn’t a tit for tat that got heated.

Anyway, onwards and all that.

Not being funny but everytime someone has a meltdown he’s always involved.


Dolly generally is a good egg.

He is the Dennis Wise of the forum though at times.

I don't have a problem with either Dolly or Lucan and I have no idea what happened here but anyone who feels compelled to downvote other Town fans as much as one of these forum members did, probably needs to find a more positive outlet in their free time.

Hoping they are both back more chilled soon.

Posters who get disappeared tend not to be blameless. I can think of a few who have been banned who were probably given multiple warnings but didn’t heed them. And for clarity, those posters come from both left and right of the political spectrum.

The arguments might well put people off from joining in but that’s down to them.

TWTD is a great community and in communities you sometimes get bickering. Just don’t take this place too seriously and everything will be fine.


Your last comment is key here - I am baffled by how seriously and personally some posters take things here, and elsewhere on t'internet.

I've posted some 'out there' or minority opinions and got robust feedback before. I've also given my own. So what? Never see the need to get personal. Up and down arrows are just a shorthand way to signal agreement and disagreement. I don't understand why anyone would let this stuff ruin their day. It's just a message board for football fans, albeit a great one! How does anyone get to the point where they need some 'time out'?

Clearly the weight of this TWTD division has shaken even the talking heads of the literati of the BBC, This morning's 'In Our Time' is on civility and how to continue discussion in a civilised manner with those you disagree with...
