Mountains and Molehills Come to Mind

Omgzzers ti dies for a day and the community falls apart[/slight exaggeration]. I would like to- well not really, but for the purposes of this article I will- link you to this article. I know its cack and all, what with all the splelnig mistakes and stuff, but its underlying issues are what I want you to focus on… Focus, read it carefully. Right you got the issues then? OK, balls to that, the cavalry, in-ter-net.
I mean does a friggin’ site owe its members anything? No does it shite, do I ‘owe’ you 3 readers a daily article? No. Its the Internet for Gods sake. We all seem to get caught up in this fact, like Marvellous. ‘Sorry, I just could not help myself’ is a perfect example of a problem with the community. Articles like that aren’t needed, its just causing unnecessary controversy. Give it a break man. We should be talking about our best strike partners or how to win the league with £100,000. In a way I disagree with myself by writing this article, because frankly no-one cares, but still.

Throw-in being back now, after a desperate 24 hours of hitting the refresh button, it all seems a bit, well sad that we were that bothered about a site being down/ closed. The rather small incident yesturday was blown out of all real proportion and if I am honest, poorly handled by the staff if it was actually the reason it closed.

Anyways, throw-in is back and all nice now, and would be dearly missed if it were to close.

  1. It wasn’t actually the sole reason we closed, apart from that, spot on.

  2. [...] Read the article [...]

  3. Surely by writing about this issue you yourself are making that mountain so to speak. Sure that Marvellous guy did a piece on this issue, but we have come to expect that from him..

  5. Yeah maybe, I done the piece in (as you can tell) about 10 minutes. I worded it wrong I suppose, what I was trying to say which I hardly said at all, was that a small issue of a forum closing had been blown out of all proportion. We get sucked into the community too much, me thinks, that was the point of the article.

    Thanks for reading though.
