    I echo what Sean has said, it just the same over and over again and it never changes. We cant all be the enemy and I have started many responses to Nil and then decided not to bother posting it as its a waste of time. Ultimately this results in a lack of interest in the site and not bothering to post at all. All the interesting threads get tangled up in the same nonsense.

    So, what screening measures are in place when “someone” registers on this site? Obviously, email address, but new email accounts are so easy to come by. Does TT go to the trouble of checking IP addresses when authorising a new User Account?

    Or maybe Sanj1 will start posting more frequently now?? OK, we won’t go there again.

    reds, yes, that would be normal protocol to those who are capable of not letting things ‘stick.’ Those that do let things stick are often as bad as the perps. Laugh it off!

    Red Herring: Nil and Sanj are not the same person.

    Everyone got what they wanted, so leave it at that.

    redsforever, nothing harsh about it, Nil has been banned in the past when Mark kept him in order. He has been spamming the forum since the new site got up and should have had a ban for all that spamming a long time ago.
    I largely ignore him but others are incapable of doing that, so good riddance. Perhaps we can keep a debate going for once now.
    Directly and indirectly the dude is responsible for over 10.000 posts, its drunk ravings after every defeat and attacks on others. Half the forum revolves around him and its just the way he likes it. Something had to give…

    I came back to read how the topic would develop/conclude and I’m obviously pleased that something has been done. It’s never good when someone is banned but I imagine that after some time off to ponder things, James will remove the ban.

    I think it’s likely that Nill will add what’s happened here to the top of the stack labelled “All against me” but we can all hope that he’ll genuinely learn upon reflection.

    That’s as much hope of us winning the title as Nil learning from this episode then I remembered Istanbul. ????

    Cheers Marshy. Hope Nil gets some help and sorts himself out. Chelsea aside, the LFC is the best team page to visit by a mile. Can’t have one fella causing countless others to leave.

    I’ve been on Teamtalk for perhaps 12-14 years and I’ve seen many posters give you, Sensibles7 advice and I’ll give it a try hope that with that input and some introspection you make some wholesome change to the way you post if/when you come back.

    First of all despite the fact that you are convinced that posters will admire you when you wear your heart on the sleeve when we lose and start bashing Liverpool supporters who claim that we are crap and will finish 5th or 6th etc, it’s just the opposite reaction that is created because most of us welcome differing viewpoints and we don’t actually need you to wear the robe of the knight to defend the club. It is more grating than anything else.

    When you call Aussie negative there is a paradox because it is you who is being negative. Instead if Aussie posts that we will not qualify for Europe you could tell him that a team which can beat Chelsea and Arsenal away isn’t totally devoid of potential, that way you engage a debate instead of trying to impose your will on others.

    Thirdly you seem to have made a personal mission to expose 999 as a fraud who has a hidden agenda and to prove that he should not be so popular among Liverpool fans here. Well even if and it’s a big if he is jealous of Liverpool then who are we to judge him, because we are far from being perfect ourselves. So you should not mind 999’s popularity and stop wasting time and energy to ‘expose’ him because you are not going to succeed and it’s a quixotic quest at best.

    Hope that you don’t mind me addressing you personally.

    100% captkirk, I’ve had good posters make very valid points & changed my views on occasions. The big thing for me is being told I sit back & hope we fail so I can say I was right. I say & think what I do because we have a squad that is very thin on quality & we lack toughness throughout the team. Yep I predicted our capitulation & Im often negative but I always put forward reasons. I acknowledge the reasons others are more optimistic & always say I hope your right. When people were predicting titles etc early on in the season I did say I thought that was crazy at such an early point in the season but that’s it.
    There’s some good posters on here that can debate points very well & when he’s not on the sauce or whatever Nil makes some very good points but too often he goes crazy & pisses others off.
    Hopefully a little break will do him good.

    It’s a shame that it ended this way nobody wants to see anyone banned but equally the site can’t afford to lose yet more posters.

    I think it would be good for the site to bed down a moderator over the next few weeks as Stevo said a pro active moderator on the site could head a lot of the problems off at the pass by editing or deleting any problematical posts nipping any escalations in the bud.

    I bear Nil no malice and would like to see him back on here posting again hopefully without all the issues.

    Aussie, I remember a dark day when I once said that the “negatives” on here almost wish that we’d lose just so they could say “I told you so”. I think we had just lost and some of the talk was a bit frustrating on top of it but I want to clarify that it was in the heat of the moment and I don’t think that about you or Sean or anyone else, I hope you know that mate.

    All good Mr Mak, your actually one of those I was talking about that has made some very good points when I’ve been a bit too negative & got me thinking a bit more positive. Without sounding like peeing in pockets your one of the better posters IMO. I know where your coming from mate, no issues there.
    Just to put it in perspective, about 5 or so seasons ago someone posed the question if manu were going to win the EPL if we beat a team would you rather we lose the game. I said id rather we win the game, I don’t give a rats ringer about Manu & id rather they didn’t but I f’ing hate it when we lose so I certainly wouldn’t want us to lose just because I predicted it.
    As I said I give reasons why I’m negative but I hope to god im wrong. That “slip” season when we nearly won it busted me, I was convinced we were going to win it, i told the missus if we won it I was getting on a plane & heading over to Liverpool to celebrate for a week. It still burns me to this day how that season ended.

    Mr mak, everyone had genuine reasons to really believe this season might be different. we were winning games playing some great football but there’s always that niggking feeling we would screw it up. My mindset won’t change until we get a few good seasons under our belt. I hate to sound so negative but I think klopp be gone by the end if next season and we start again.

    I’m really not sure how or when it will change. This is one major capitulation and has bad as we have seen. i can’t see anything positive coming from this season and I’m really waiting for it to end. That’s me in full negative mode. We just fook up constantly. It’s like I’m just waiting for us to fail because we always do.its a terrible way to think but it’s mostly what happens. We should have at least 3/4 cups since we won the cl.

    Spot on Sean, I thought Klopp would be the turning point for us but it really looks like he’s been found out & it’ll just be more of the same. As I said on another thread I don’t think gengenpressing is sustainable over a full season in the EPL. Added to that teams have figured out how to play us & we struggle with pretty much all bar the few teams that have a crack. we need at least 6 players of better quality than we have & it’ll take a few seasons to get them, if at all.

    That doesn’t read very well, not so much Klop has been found out but teams now know how to nullify us & we need to find an alternative way way of playing.
    I love Klopps charisma etc but that’s not enough to get us where we want to be & he needs to change things so we aren’t so predictable.
    That said he got players like Lallana & Hendo playing very important roles for us so I’m sure he can get us going again if he gets some quality players to compliment what we have.

    I doubt your owners will make the same decision, but they sacked Dalglish after a poor 2nd half to the season. If they are consistent then Klopp will suffer the same fate if things continue. Like I said, I doubt they will, they are not stupid enough to. It took Dortmund a few years to fully get going under Klopp.

    ” I hate to sound so negative but I think klopp be gone by the end if next season and we start again”

    I made some similar comments the other day I think, so we agree there. I am generally a positive guy about football but one thing that Im negative about is “the masses”. I know that sounds terrible but I’ll explain. I am living in fear of bad form almost as much for the harm it does to our season, as much as the wave of negativity (REAL negativity, not anything like what you guys say) that will come from sections of the fans, calling for the manager to be fired and generally making things unpleasant.

    I live in fear of the ‘Klopp Out’ stuff that will come soon if we dont turn things around.

    BTW, did you guys notice that this thread is now a sticky? LOL
