I have to agree with Killersheep. I would be posting a lot more on here, but all the bandwagon Pacquiao fans on here are killing the site. The only reason I come here is because I'm on the Boxing betting game. I've been looking for a new site, but really haven't found a right fit yet.
To address the issue of Pacquiao's fans, I really do think it's just an extremely vocal minority who cause all the problems. I'm sure most of his real fans are the same as any other boxing fans. However, with worldwide superstardom and extreme popularity casual fans are going to be drawn in (which really is probably a good thing for boxing, just not boxing forums) and along with a huge fanbase comes a huge number of idiotic, shit-disturbing fans. I'm sure Joshua Clottey fans would be just as numerous and insufferable if he was regarded in the same was Pac currently is.
cant you guys just ignore it? its not as if the first page is FULL of pac threads.
and most of the pac threads non pacfans participate, that means people are still interested.
if the pac thread is full of sh!t then no one will reply to it and the forum itself will put it on the back pages .
and pac haters still outnumbers pachuggers so whats the problem?
pacs name gets mentioned always simply because of what he had done for boxing. he is the IT boxer, even non boxing fans knows him.
But it was getting overloaded,we have been throwing them into Spam but they keep comming. If we didnt do the work the place would be full and it not fair on other fight fans in separate weights having to read and chat about Manny even when talking about the Heavyweights etc .
Whoever makes us do more work and we will vote you into being banned.
ban them if guilty!
pretty simple right? but why are some go to the extent of leaving the forums for good?
some even threat that if this thing continues many will leave? thats pretty lame imho.
we have a saying here in PI im kinda having a hard time translating it
"ang pikon ay laging talo"
I don't think it's unreasonable for people to look at the threads they are starting and to think to themselves "Is this relevant? Will this lead to healthy debate and the sharing of thoughts? Or am I doing it just to wind people up?" If it's the later then it is clearly spam and has no place on the main board.
This is a community and that always needs to be considered. Always forcing an agenda will lead to a fracturing of that community. Surely nobody who cares about this site wants that to happen? So let's all just try to be a bit more considerate of each other, and just tone it all down a bit.
Nobody is saying "let's not talk about Manny!". But people should keep Pac in relevant threads and not raise him up everywhere just for the sake of it. We are boxing fans at the end of the day. If you only want to be a Pac hugger then there are places where you can be just that. But this is a general forum. It's not too much to ask for people on both sides to sit back and reflect a little.
Right I think I will get off of my soapbox!![]()
I think we better talk awesome chicks and sexy pics on the Hidden Boards.
Spicoli and Yvonne!! start the thread
This is Manny speaking
I know i'm great, the world knows i'm great, those who doesn't even care knows i'm great. So there's no need for so many threads telling people i'm great.
