Firstly, nice to see you all!

Now this place is a bit busier (at least until the pinkun is fixed) I'm open to any ideas or feedback as to how to make your Norwichtalk experience better for all, so am open to suggestions, within reason lol.

I have struggled a bit to keep the place ticking over so have felt I have had to post more, but am willing to tone it down if it is too much. Also I have a routine of starting the match thread, then moving it when it is done with, just to keep the place tidy, but anyone can start the match thread and I'll pin it for you. I am aware that there are a lot of forums sections idle, as people use the main one most, and that is something I can discuss with the forum owner to see if he wants to thin it out a bit.

Oh and finally, don't believe any nonsense that any of the pinkun old farts might tell you, nobody gets punted from here unless they really, really deserve it (I think maybe 3 or 4 people in 12 years).

It looks educational. I hope my attempt at SCR explanation was too albeit fag packet in nature.

Very little traffic in Pinkun these days, especially when compared to comparable clubs or even our beloved rivals.
Those who delight in cynicism have had quite a negative effect on those of us who try to be more positive.

And keep it up Morty if we all spread the word it would lead to a range of hopefully positive contributions

I think someone summed it up in another thread by saying there are only about 20 people that post there regularly and they all seem to hate each other :p

I don't mind positive or negative, as long it is balanced and factual. Far too often, and I have seen this on the pinkun, people fall into separate factions, for example the Worthy outers and the KTF's (Keep the faiths) and that person is forever tarnished with whatever side they took, and a grudge is held by some. Opinions can change, and that is fine, it doesn't mean you are wrong, merely that you have re-assessed given more information. I think some people are obsessed by being right, more than wanting a sensible discussion. At the end of the day, every football manager gets sacked, sooner or later, and some people just seem to be in a rush to be the first one that said it! Always best to play the ball, not the man!

I was starting to question Big Phil's tactics a few games ago, but I'm fine now ;)

Would hope many keep on this forum, even if the Pinkun is eventually restored. It’s absolute rubbish what the Pinkun staff are giving as excuses in this day of technology
The moderator treats it’s readers as kids.

Agree and as I put in another thread, Pinkun is just chock full of people being overly negative about the club and towards other posters, and well really just in general haha. Also, and might be only one on here like this, it blocked IP addresses from certain countries, USA included, so was beyond a headache for me to do a VPN every time I logged in.

When it does get fixed and people go back, would be their business, but personally I have no desire to ever do so. Really tbh shows their lack of respect for their posters that site is not back up by now tbh; not a computer whiz and know not always simple but I have been part of other forums geared towards my hobbies(Gaming forums, etc) who had severe technical issues themselves and got the site back up rather quickly.

But I digress haha.

Keep up the good work @morty

This forum has a good balance, relaxed atmosphere and some informed opinion.
It also seems a better place to express your thoughts without someone replying in a barbed manner, often with a put down and never to provoke real debate.
Starting to think I might not go back to the Pinkun.
If Ricardo keeps posting his match reports here, that would sway things.

Thank you but I literally don't do anything other than tidy up a little bit. Maybe the fact that I have said the only rule is "Don't be a dick" has been enough to keep things normal here :p
