Roast Main board

[WCE_Phill]

Can WCE fans stop making threads on the main board about our team and players. (The lastest thread about an eagles dynasty). It makes our support base look stupid and arrogant. I don't want our fan base to get a reputation like Essendon.

I know everyone excited by our young team, but keep it in here.

I would like to mods to card the next person who makes a "cringe worthy" thead on the main board!

 

[The Passenger]

agreed.

it would be pretty funny if it didn't tarnish us all with the same brush...

but by all means troll away in WCE/Umpiring threads

 

[The Falcon Strike]

I think you'll find that thread in particular isn't a WC supporter

 

[Eastern Rangers]

I noticed the Dynasty thread, talk about flash backs.

Haven't read the thread, too scared.

 

[Ochre]

I regard Essendon as having the best fans on here (outside us).

 

[kane249]

The Gaff thread was cringeworthy, agreed people need to keep a lid on it

 

[Macca81]

yeah agree.

Its getting embarrassing right now. It just reeks of approval of other fans. Dont be insecure and post on the main board about our team. If fans of another team do it then fine.

Is there any way we can get that dynasty thread removed?

 

[pantskyle]

The Gaff thread went about it the wrong way.

The dynasty thread is premature.

I got accused on the main board yesterday or Monday of being one of the worst posters on BF because of the Gaff thread. Because of the WC jerking off threads which I barely post in.

I'm being labelled people. Cut it out.

 

[new breed]

Yeah I was going to start a thread about NicNat for AA , but thought better of it

Also thought one thread about Freo tanking for the Superdraft might go down well !

 

[East coast eagle]

The last thing we want is a rep like the bombers...
Have no problem with trolling unpire threads, i think its funny..

While I tend to agree with the sentiment, there's no way we'll be carding them or having threads shut - it's not against the rules in any way.

I do encourage our posters to have a think about it before starting a thread (or posting outlandish stuff on existing threads), but ultimately it's up to each individual.

The other point worth noting is that many of these threads are not started by Eagles fans - they are often subtle trolls that have a hint of truth and then exaggerate the point to draw responses.

 

[lyall]

Pretty easy not to post in it

Call them out on it.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Don't even need to read this, agreed entirely. Everyone chill the flip out.

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

I reckon go one better yourselves and don't post in them.

 

[swannies]

What, there's not a dynasty already? Who would've thought......

Agree with the sentiment of tone it down folks, but when you rebound from last, quacker than most , who can't get carried away?

 

[UpForGrabs]

Came here to say the exact same thing.

Every time there's an Eagles thread started, I know that I'll be able to look and see West Coast beneath their name.

Don't gloat. Makes us as bad as the Carlton supporters.

 

[Eagle Ant]

Yeh totally Agree..
I am well know for making Crazy suggestions and Threads but I dont even open a thread on the Main page..

Common sense lets keep our Crap in our own back yard.

Your suggestions in the ins and outs thread were not nearly crazy enough!

 

[zero]

good call, the place for "how awesome is <WC team/player/coach/midfield/cheerleader>" threads are on this board

 

[ziad]

Agreed.

The dynasty thread was posted ironically I'm pretty sure, given that the exact same types of discussions were around in 05/06.

Most main board posters are pretty dull though, a point has to be bashed into them until they understand it.

 

[oak79]

I cringed when I saw the Gaff thread yesterday and the Dynasty one today... it seriously gives West Coast supporters a bad name.

Best not to comment in them at all - even to dis the thread.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Could be worse, we could be starting threads about Will Minson.

 

[nameless]

Good thread, I also don't like seeing topics of our players started by our own.

I was quite surprised at the general support from the Gaff thread though, with a lot saying Darling is probably the pick of the draft, but regardless, let's keep a lid on it.

We haven't defeated anyone of note this year, maybe if we're 11-1 we can start to make some noise...
