The boards have been dead lately. So many people have been banned (for god knows what reason) that there are hardly anymore left. You know yourself if your a good one so this doesnt aply to all.
You have to admit there are a lot of decent people in the sin bin.

Hmmm. I have noticed it has been rather slow going on the forums lately. I thought it could be my imagination as I haven't been on as much due to work but it's definately quieter these days. I don't want to comment on the banned members perse though as we're not allowed to. lol.

It's the summer, the weather's been lovely and I would imagine that people have been out taking advantage of it. No need to start prophecying the end of the Soaps forum

When you started this thread were you thinking specifically about BCJ? I was just wondering, since purely from an observational point of view, and not to be critical, you and BCJ often used to agree on most opinions- and at one point this even happened to me. Do you remember when I said I thought Michelle Ryan was fit, you and BCJ both compared her to horses, american footballers and god knows what else...

I'm not saying you and BCJ had bad opinions- I respected your opinions very much- but you did seem to 'attack' in pairs.

So who has all been banned.

I know of Rovers Return and Walford Will.

Don't go into details, just say the names to save any arguing and more banning.

Although there is a lot of good posters that have been banned, there is also a lot of good posters still here including yourself Sarah, Polly and TheSarge to name a few.

If someone's banned then it's after they've been warned I believe. And I think I'm right in thinking they get a two week ban initially so there is a chance they can come back.

No point arguing about the rules etc. At the end of the day it's just another forum. Posters come and go anyway.

If his ban is only temporary, and only for such a negligible amount of time, then why are you worried about a lack of good posters to the extent of creating a whole thread about it?

These are the members you have all listed so far:
BCJ, ITV Fan, WalfordWill, Rovers Return, Ray
are there any more???

I only really knew BCJ (although not well enough, we met in the 'storylines that have not been done' post), I think I knew OF WalfordWill though, but that may be WeatherfieldWill? It seems a shame as a lot of people here obviously valued their views!!!

Ray who used to do a whole lot of fake spoilers. If you look at a old thread half the people have been banned or don't post anymore.

I'm quite sure that the disappearance of some of the regular posters is not just because they have been banned. I suspect many of them are bored to death by repetitive posts and people who join the forum to bicker rather than entering into intelligent, productive discussions.
