You accused me of throwing stones in a glasshouse. I took that in reference to your assertion that I expect sunderland fans to "play fair" with regards to Newcastle. Surely it's reasonable to think you were implying that I shouldn't accuse people of being unfair, when I'm being unfair.
That's odd though, the other boards I post on will have "banter" but generally I'm not followed around with people typing "RELEGATION" at me on those. There's a decent number of members on here who can have a proper chat, them being biased towards Sunderland, me leaning the other way, who
don't need to try to turn everything into a "FTM" diatribe, so it would seem my expectations aren't wholly unjustified.
And you'd see that if you were to join Toontastic, you'd get a similar response. The overwhelming majority would chat, one or two would call you an SMB, or whatever. As long as you were fair and reasoned you'd be well recieved. A few mackems recently appeared, one calling himself CustardSlice, another (whose name has been changed to reflect his... politics). The former came on for a chat, the other to act the ****. One was well recieved the other was destroyed.
Perhaps I underestimated the proportion of angry MLFs?
