I want to bring up a point for discussion...

On this website (which is aimed at LCFC supporters i assume) of all ages, race, intelligence and location, why does there (seem) to be an ''inner circle'' of members (usually with high numbers of posts) who continually riducule EVERYONE who is not a member of this invisible privvy circle?

I for one (and i know i am not alone) entered this site to have discussions/different views shared on our great, but at present ailing club. What actually happens is that ''junior'' members are either ridiculed (in a way that is not banter) ignored, abused (some times racially) or made to feel distinctly unwelcome?

There are dozens (if not hundreds) of examples of this across many threads across this site. If we are to become a great club, then we should embrace all supporthers regardless of who thwy are and what their views are.

I for one (and again i am not alone) find posting on this site a bit pointless as, a ''junior'' (if you can call someone 40 years old, junior), member due to reasons above.

I would like to know why (some of) the ''senior inner circle'' members feel the need to do this? If it is to discourage ''junior'' members from posting on this site...well you have been successful. If it is to attract a more diverse opinion...well, this is failing.

Very soon this site could be full of posts from senior members, with no imput from outside. If this is the aim, continue as you are, and i am sure your wish will be granted.

I, for one will not be posting on here again.
 
I aint being racialist... but I hate homer, he works at Burger King you know.

It's called a circle because they like to complete a daisy chain.

But that's not why you're being ridiculed.
 
There are some jokes that i wont understand as theres obviously something ive missed somehow, but apart from that its fine.:102:

I have been a member for a couple of years but didn't start posting until fairly recently.

I experienced the sort of things you mention, but, you know what? I gave back as good as I got, joined in with the banter and now, well, if I am not loved at least I am tolerated on here :icon_wink

This forum is a bit like society in general - there are all sorts here, good, bad (ugly) and indifferent but it is really up to you to fit in and adapt. You can't expect everyone else to adapt themselves to you.

If you don't like what you read then either ignore it or, better still, post a counter argument.

FWIW I think the mix of fun / frivolity / piss taking and serious discussion on here is about right.

Like life, it's what you make it.

Think you have a valid point, I've seen "newish" posters hounded off most of the message boards, some quite vindictively
 
its banter for ****s sake, most people just give as good as they get or ignore it and talk about football matters. They could block the so called "inner circle" so they dont have to read there post.
