It would save a lot of typing time. Over the years we get the same old thing. Just insert name in the template and you're done!
"I can't believe XXXXX is still in it." "Why is XXXXX still in it?" "XXXXX should quit now." "I can't understand why people don't love the Cliftons." "I can't understand why people love the Cliftons." "XXXXX is definitely the worst dancer." "XXXXX is definitely the best dancer." "You should be ashamed of voting for XXXXX." "It's about the best dancer." "It's not about the best dancer." There must be plenty more. |

What has Craig got against XXX? |

Or just let people live their life and express their views?
I mean it is usually similar themes each year but I love it. The reasons these forums exist is because everyone here is passionate about Strictly or dancing or both. The people in my life don't give two hoots about Strictly so I get to come here and talk about my own viewpoints of the show. Don't think of it as whinging, think of it as expressions of passion

No hang on! Someone has just done it for you. |

However much I might disagree with another FM's views, nothing is more than annoying than the self appointed forum police : "This topic has been covered before " (no really?) "If you can't say anything nice ..." "Just because you are a jellus hater" "God, is this thread still going"? Yep and you've just kept it going even longer. Why don't people just ignore the threads or the FMs who bug them so much? |

There are whole screeds that reappear frequently that I am sure someone has a Word file, and just cuts and pastes as required

Cant warm to XXXX
It's their way of trying to still appear nice, whilst hoping they are firing the starting gun for others to pour in with some really nasty comments. For some reason I can't warm to that type of poster. |

Can you imagine how much easier life, work, personal relationships etc would be if you could reliably tell what a colleague etc was thinking, just by looking at them?.

You're right because all the things people complain about happen every year anyway. We'll have another Ed Balls figure next year, just as we'll have some ex soap star or pop princess who clearly have loads of dance experience. And yet it's still fun.
