What you've got to understand guys, is that while you might come on here and feel like you're talking to other "cluey" people, you're actually coming to a small community of 150 or so supporters who are viewed externally as a collection of social outcasts and weirdos. Weirdos who have come here and thought about things for so long, and listened to each other for so long, you feel like you must have an extraordinary, unfiltered insight that no average punter can see. But actually, you're viewed as a bit of a fruitcake and part of a toxic, sad, cliquey little community with nothing in their lives.
NO ONE is coming here to give you guys information. The odd person who stumbles upon something one time or has a mate who runs drinks at channel seven and so sees the team sheet 40 minutes on the Thursday, maybe. But that is literally it.
You're just kidding yourselves so much if you think anyone is coming here. And I don't say this to be a dick, it's just the fact of it.
I call bullshit, your bullshit.
Apart from the posters who regularly post here, how well known is the Adelaide Board? Who are these people that have formed this external opinion? The media? Who gives a shit, they don't like this Board because of some of its critical opinions.
Or are those external people you refer to your circle of friends? If that's the case, based on your oddity, I can see why they would think that.
But on to the validity of what people post on here, there are clearly posters on here that know things, to suggest otherwise would be naive. I've had a few PMs from posters on here and their information has been accurate. Some of them have chosen to post the info on this board as well.
TAFKATMS has posted stuff on here prior to the event, he's shown to have connections.
Perhaps stop being a dick and using the opportunity to have a crack at those who post on here, especially when you're speaking shit.
