This is exactly the same issue that we had with Rage, it's not about opinion, everyone is entitled to take whatever slant they want to take, it breeds discussion and debate. But Rage/Rashid offer nothing in that way, they post and make the same repeated point every time, they try to stick to the subject but can't resist putting the same (sometimes irrelevant) point in there. You can't even reason or tackle their point, because they take such a blinkered, biased, stubborn stance with no room for debate or justification. It's pointless and it just ruins threads because people get dragged into it, Rashid provokes and people bite and good threads and good posters are brought down because of it.
That said, I wouldn't stop posting because of another poster. Lets remember aswell, one of the main reasons the forum is so 'down' is because of results, that in itself sparks frustration and argument. When you walk through a storm eh? The mods as ever are doing a difficult job and they're doing it as well as any one can, it's hard to draw lines, especially when you want the forum to be so open.

Only problem with that is that rage in the football forum was a cock, however in the other forums he was actually reasonable and enjoyable reading material. Are we now at the point where we base everything on the football forum? Because there are some posters who piss me off with their agendas against the yanks and blaming them for everything, The people who blame lucas for every lost game and the people who rue our selling of players about 4 years ago.

How can you split it? At the end of the day, the football forum is the site, the rest branch off that. Initially we were all here because of the football, it created a community and we could then branch off from that and talk about other stuff. I know some posters just stick to GC or the Music forum, but by and large when I think of a poster I think of their football views. You can't say, well it's ok they can stay because they're ok in General Chat, while in the main forum their acting like a cock permanently.
