Re: Verbal wrestling match
I fast forward through all the Jaydog/Weasel innuendo stuff, but that's about it..

I don't know, Wes,Wes Lee Street wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2026 12:57 pm My main thought is: Why are there so few people engaging in verbal jousting. (90% football, 10% other).
I am just curious. RTG Sunderland Message Board is absolutely freaking huge. The Régis Le Bris thread has 478,000 views. The deadine day thread was almost impossible to follow with multiple posts every 2 seconds.
Our forum is moderated by mature individuals who act with caution and good humour. When other fans tell us "what Leeds fan are saying" (for example The Griffin Park Grapevine) they quote motforum. Now.....that may be because another well known Leeds United forum cannot be be viewed by anyone and everyone. But it is still true.
So, looking at the massive Leeds fanbase, right across the world, why is this forum not as busy as RTG? I am not talking about quality. Just size.

Re: Verbal wrestling match
I prefer a village, away from the hustle/bustle of city life & the rabble it attracts.The Subhuman wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2026 2:26 pm That's nothing, Waccoe's mental health thread has half a million views. Waccoe is comfortably the biggest Leeds forum on the web, we're more of a village here. I use both Waccoe where I have over 100k posts and this one (79k? ish) everyday
Just had my 20 year waccoe anniversary. Sept 1st 2006 I joined. Been here since 2012
The less aggravation in my life, the better!

Re: Verbal wrestling match
They both have their advantages and disadvantages. I use Waccoe for footbal rumour and news, general chat, NFL and music and MOT for football as there's way too many voices talking at once on match threads etc on waccoe. And of course our version of Random Musings is really poor for the most part.

Re: Verbal wrestling match
This forum is like a village in that we probably have more of a feel that we know the other villagers rather than a site/city like waccoe where there are too many people all shouting to be heard. Much prefer the community feel of this forum.
