What do you want to see---threads about losers and failures ?

Now, the Rev just took a look at the front page---these are the topics I have started:
1. England's Biggest Dilemma is the great Man.

2. English swing bowlers will torture WI bats at Trent Bridge

3. The 40/30 rule: Best predictor of test series

4. #1 Sobers, #2 Bradman, #3 Chanderpaul
I saw other threads on Ramdin, Bishoo, Sarwan and Sammy.

So what nonsense are you writing about 5 or 6 threads dedicated to one man ? I rather suspect you are deeply pained to see the great success Shiv has achieved.

At one point in time there were about 5 or 6 threads dedicated to Shiv on the front page. Look at page 3 there are 4 threads there on Shiv and at one point all those threads were on the first page. And no I am not pained by Chanders success, I always like to see him do well and it also helps the WI team as well too.

What dilemma?

All England has to do is bowl the team out around Shiv...

It's a dilemna when there's no solution...in this case the Dottie team puts up no resistance so this is a solveable problem...

Shiv scored 87* and 91 at Lords---he remains the #1 ranked batsman on the ICC Rankings list----he is 57 points ahead of #2 ranked DeVilliers----he is 22 points away from the magical 900 ICC rating number---every day you have various British newspapers showering Shiv with praises---so what do you expect the topics to be on this message board to be about ?

If Lara's cousin scores a hundred at Trent Bridge or if Roti man Ravi gets a 5wkt haul you''ll have a preponderance of articles on those two.

No if Bravo scores a 100 or 50 I won't have a dozen or so threads dedicated to him. You need to learn to ease off the new thread button from time to time because right now its looking like spam. Just create one thread and put all your shiv related stuff in there.

DMan:

Read that sign 100 times. :D lol

Winners would always enjoy reading topics on the world's #1 ranked batsman---whiners would complain there are too many. :lol:

I am not whining I am just stating that you should stop spamming the boards with the same thing over and over again. Just create one thread and put it all on there.

So topics on the great man are considered spamming ? Did you also complain to the BBC, the Guardian, the Telegraph and the other British tabloids about spamming ? ----they had numerous articles on the great man the past week. :D

Anyway, you have the last word!

Yes they had numerous articles about that, but this is an internet message board and posting the same thing over and over again is considered spam. So please create 1 thread and dump all your stuff in there.
