Probably much the same for me. I've never received a warning, but had five posts deleted in the first six years. Presumably either I've toned down, or else this forum allows more now.

Steve Watts Posted May 12 Report Share Posted May 12 11 hours ago, Silvio Dante said: Found it: https://www.otib.co.uk/leaderboard/?time=oldest Goes back to November 2013 in terms of reputation. @Davefevs is top with 83000 (62000 posts mind - does that man sleep??) and @GrahamC comes in second with a comparatively puny 35000. Its safe to say Dave isn’t being caught soon! Do we think a combined effort could bring him down though. What effect would facepalming every post have? Like you say it would enhance, but if it detracts then I might start auctioning off emojis! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolmoose Posted May 12 Report Share Posted May 12 14 hours ago, IAmNick said: I think @Silvio Dante is a league 1 club forum poster at best honestly. Yes he gets a lot of reactions but his all around impact is weak - local radio, podcasts, tweets, and so on. Personally I've got my eye on a poster on the Notts County forum. Only made 14 posts so far but I'd hope to see him here this summer or it's another major screw up by Lansdown. I agree. I've seen a YouTube video of the best words from his comments. I can confidently state he's the best I've seen since @Davefevs and he'll be commenting on England games within two years 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcfcredandwhite Posted May 12 Report Share Posted May 12 21 years (May 2007) I posted mainly on the old BBC 606 forum and when that was disabled I joined JA606 (same format as the old BBC site) and Not606. I came over to OTIB because some of my mates have been on here for years and persuaded me. I class myself as an ‘occasional’ poster on here, but I read the forum several times per day. I mainly post on Not606 where there is a smaller community but many of them (like me) post on both. I rarely visit JA606 these days - there are only a handful of us City fans on there - but it’s quite a good platform to check out the opposition views - several of our rivals have a presence there. I really like this forum particularly for the match day thread - a lot of work and research goes into creating those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
