I never flipped out it was mere amusement for me especially as i saw that the clique were in full swing plus i was the only one who went up against them- Look at billy boy or beeston and there racist homophobic laced insults ive never once spoke to either but because they were part of this clique they attack- Why not talk boxing instead- To be honest i really dont care just love boxing and the place is better without them- Flea would do well to stay from the filth drop the arrogance and he could well be a great poster one day but he is young and feels strong be the know it all ***** backed by several posters which is a shame Anyhow shall we get back to boxing lets talk of what greatness really is or upcoming fights etc as coo as a muthpha****er
^^^ I have been called many many things but racist is a first and in case you haven't noticed Im still here sperm-breath.
Did you not tell me to relax and take no offence to being " an in bred **** wit who knows nothing about boxing " ?? , obviously it wasn't you who called me that :huh
Fair enough mate, I can't recall seeing racist posts by those two mentioned. Both are good guys IMO and i wouldn't expect that of either, We can't all get along that's part of life as we all know. As you rightly say lets get back to talking boxing :good, It's amazing how a thread like this rolls on and on yet other threads that are about Boxing don't get the attention.
we need more breakdown threads- what makes a guy a good puncher What makes a good chin- Whats is greatness- Get qualitative and quantitative analysis going
I agree, It's hard though Black. I mean sometimes i've gone for those type threads and you put a fair bit of effort in and you get a casually made thread with a lot to do about nothing and it takes people's attention. I often feel people are either a bit afraid of going in depth about inside the squared circle matters because of effort in posts or just lazy . But we might as well try especially tonight where this isn't much going on :good.
I'll be the first to admit I've become an incredibly lazy poster. In fact, I'm a downright **** poster these days. I know my boxing still, but I don't love the sport like I used to. My blase attitude towards the sport is mirrored in my poor posts. It's not a case of people here not knowing their boxing that has caused this place to decline. It's just that ESB no longer creates the illusion of it being a serious boxing forum where boxing is genuinely analyzed and discussed in any significant depth. So instead people revert to petty behaviour. There are still good posters whom I enjoy reading - I'm a big fan of slipandcounter's posts, for instance. But often excellent posts and thread ideas get ignored, and if the knowledge is acknowledged, what's the point in sharing it on here? Finally, some people on here have no right to whine. Good posters in the British forum are complete ****stain trolls on the General forum, and as I know they actually know their boxing to an extent, they are far more responsible for the decline of ESB as a whole than the newer and/or clueless posters.
Haha no, just saying I merely found the dismissive nature of dftaylor's post funny, not the actual content of it.:good
