neilt0, if you would rather be on a forum where people are sickly nice and false all the time, UnofficialMills is the place for you... if, on the other hand, you would prefer people to be up front, have a banter and generally take the piss out of each other (as is Moyles' own way of doing things, for *'s sake), then welcome aboard.
And Hello, Mr. 11,000 posts.
What I find most ridiculous is that feel you have to pick up on a newbie's spelling or grammar or sentence structure but fail to look at the idea of either talking about the thread topic (live video of the Chris Moyles show for the first time ever FFS), or my offer of spending 3 and a half hours recording the stream and sharing it for others who may have missed it or who are overseas and can't ever see it.
I don't want you to fawn, but I tell you what, it's going to put people off when you spend a good proportion of your 10,000+ posts picking holes, whining or taking the piss. Welcome to Britain?
How about "I don't need a copy of the recording, I'm watching it live", or "I already have a recording." or "Yeah, that'd be nice if you could upload it here".
Or if you have nothing to contribute, how about you just decide not to post a snarky reply for once?
Give that a few goes and maybe n00bs will stay around.
But maybe don't actually want that, you'd rather keep the forum closed off to newbies?
It seems like every post that talks about the show eventually gets diverted in to some personal or irrelevant topic or is filled with your own in-jokes. Fine in the off-topic forum, but can you leave it there?
