    I've found McGrain very fair.I don't think he likes me, but he doesn't seem to let his own feelings affect his actions,so a good choice for the job,imo.

    I haven’t seen much of his actual modding but his comments are usually excellent.

    be careful lol! I have been on here for 12 years with no warnings and wondered the same thing! Then when I questioned a mod for booting someone I was booted for “questioning a mod” lol! Oh well

    You may ask the voters here https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/rocky-marciano-vs-david-tua.640114/ too if you like.

    No problem.

    WHO did fail adding the first fighter totally viral in here https://www.boxingforum24.com/threa...absolute-monster-h2h-still-underrated.640742/ keeping fairytales existing @ BF24???

    Give RBV/BHS no chance. Thanks.

    That will teach you for venturing too far away from the sanctuary of the Classic Forum and it's friendly mods!!!!

    Banning isn't very common in the actual Classic Forum unless you are a troll or a real pig lol. Admittedly the odd guy can get banned in here on a technicality like bypassing the swear filter, intentional or not.

    Everyone should remember abbreviations of such timeless old sayings like shut the **** up, go get ****ed, for ****s sake and the like leave you open to being banned if someone (mod) actually notices them. I guess if someone was out to get you they could also hit the report button and have you banned.

    It might be the only thread in history, where every possible argument on a subject was brought to bear, and the thread died its own heat death!

    According to Don Turner, Manny Stewart had Carnera in his unreleased top 10 list.
    Klomtpon has the records.
