How about, "Welcome to Fright-Day! Have a ball... a fire-ball!"

"Enter Stranger!" or "Welcome watcher of illusion".

Suggestions for better welcome messages would be appreciated. How about "Welcome to Sainsbury's Local"?

Say, maybe someone could convert the message into the Chinese alphabet?

I vow that my fractal fronds will sweep away any nasty singularities that may come to exist in the Knightmare Set!

When I joined way back last year, there seemed to be a general sense of camaraderie and fun, what with Emii glomping everyone, and everyone having a laugh, which is what being on a forum is all about, at least to me. Unfortunatley, in recent times, this element if fun has been missing, but will hopefully return with our new mods!

It's just a shame some of the people that used to post here have disappeared...

(sorry if I'm re-hashing what everyone else has said, this is just my view! )

Heh, I can't remember the last time I made a post this long!

Now all I need to worry about is people objecting to my large hands....

Having known Forester for about 5 years I am more than aware that it was a joke.

TAXI for Forester!

(Erm smilies in post would help in understanding it, am I to assume it is ironic or serious?)

It's a joke (as stated at the bottom), possibly ironic. Unfortunately it's more one of those "in jokes" that only a few people understand. See I know Kieran personally through all the RPG things. And Malefact uses a picture of a Fractal for an on-line Avatar. So now you know

(Erm smilies in post would help in understanding it, am I to assume it is ironic or serious?)

Never before has such news filled me with the amount of disgust that I feel right now. I mean how could you appoint someone who had hands like a giant, they're very threatening hands! Not the sort of a welcoming person. And I have seen these hands in person and I have felt their wrath, namely whilst attempting to prod the back of the owner of said hands with a pin but none the less wrath I have felt.

And the other, well he's a fractal! A mathematical equation... Where's the humanity in that, I want a person not a robot. Sure it may be a very pretty fractal but mathematical it remains. The logic of maths is of no use at all, I demand a moderator who inflicts their will with motivation and bias for great evil should they bring to the people of this forum. Knewbies should be made to kiss their feet before even entertaining the idea of starting a thread.

No I am not a happy man, and with discontent I shall remain until chaos and misery is brough unto all.

NB. For thos who don't understand, this post is a totally pointless joke. Everything in it should be reversed really. Oh except the bit about Kieran's big hands.

NB^2. For those who still don't understand that this is a joke, note how the post contains a large dose of contradiction.

A test gentlemen. That is all.

Not that it matters anymore today. Time for a smoke break then wind up ready to go home for the Knight. Yay!

And the cunning test to the moderators has been passed. If they were too strict, all these posts would have gone. Cunningly, they didn't.

Yes, that's what it was. A test. Ahem.

Any FK. It doesn't matter now. We've kept most of our team so should be able to beat everyone off next season (Hopefully) as it was really only ever a two horse race.

Carlisle will be no porblem

Anyway, surely Brollachan you can see how the conversation flowed into this so it's a natural progression. Hmmmm, Forum Problems - Appointing Moderators- State of the water in various parts of the Country - Football. Logical see

lol

Still....as long as you beat Carlisle I'll be happy.

Chester finished on 92 points with 85 goals for and 34 against giving a difference of +51

Hereford finished on 91 points with 103 goals for and 44 against giving a difference of +59

If it had been treated fairly and a point had been taken off you when it should have been Hereford would have automatically gained promotion on goal difference, you would have had to make it through the playoffs.

As you say. No arguement here. Just stating facts.

And promoted to League Two...

Still, we don't want any irony here, where an argument starts after congratulating moderators, who would then have to moderate the thread where they are being congratulated.

Oh, the mere thought of it gives me a headache.

No. It also wasn't us that fielded an inelligiable player and somehow got away with it.

You should have had six points taken off you for the season just ended, not carried over to next season.

The season when the offense is commited should be the season where the punsihment takes effect. You'd be saying the same if it was the other way around.

Both have their heads reasonably well screwed on and have enough sense between them to serve this community well.

For anyone who may be worried about potential 'cliqueism' my answer is:- 'Don't be...'. Remember that the word 'Community' implies some amount of democracy IE even the moderators can be moderated!

If all us real fans continue doing what we've been doing since the beginning IE "Keep the heid". The whole thing should tick-over just nicely...
