If you could add ONE rule to The Sand Pit
 
So what would it be ??

I reckon it should be that a new member can only start a thread after 100 posts !!

Any other suggestions ?

maybe that people with usernames starting with 'B' aren't allowed to start threads at all...

He supports Newcastle, and plays like a twat in the 5-a-side each week, and is only in the team cos he runs it...ha ha !!

Note: Thats me dropped for Wednesday nights games then !

Preferably not of themselves:eek: Let's be honest, if any of the guys or girls on here were remotely attractive (me included), they would probably have real lives rather than being on here all the time.:D

TBH, most of the posters that I have met off here have, for whatever their reasons were, quietly extricated themselves from the site...

Though I know that a few still troll...

So, to all those ex-posters that I have met, that have seen sense and moved on with their lives, but, like rubber-necking past a particularly nasty vehicular accident, still come back to see what the latest clique-du-jour is, I give a hearty 'Hello'...... :thumbup:

hello to you to, its nice to be recognised as a quiet extrication.....

And as I havent posted on here for some time, I thought I would try and start a few threads today to liven up what has become a downright dull, dead and wet board over the past few months

It a shame, cos I used to have the odd laugh with one or two people on here, but sadly some of the older members (posting wise) & some newer posters have totally lost their sense of humour, or take things too much to heart when some of the threads were just meant to be light hearted

Way too many serious f***ers on here nowadays

Aye... f**k me, its getting to the point that I have to do work, since their are no topics full of chunky, meaty goodness for me to get my teeth into....

well, the way I read it is that posting on BE is some sort of sad thing, like rubbernecking some nasty accident, and not posting equals moving on with your life, which seems to be the thing to aspire to...
but, it can't really be that you said that cause you keep coming back to BE yourself...so that's why I am a little confused...but nevermind, you go and lie down for a bit.

Be careful with him this week tho...

He's probably in mourning for the much-publicised break-up of Chas 'n' Dave....
