Cookie Monster

Anyone having trouble with this cookie nonsense again? Had it briefly yesterday but it’s been appalling this morning.

It's because of the politics section of the forum polluting web space.

On and off this morning for me. Annoying to say the least.

Been at me all day. Do the VSC actually pay the host company for this site?

If so, they're having their trousers pulled down.

Doesn't help when the forum is poorly moderated, we have threads galore on the same subject every week, matchday threads that are created (normally one about the manager, one about the worst player on the pitch, one about the best, one about the ref etc, rather than one sole matchday thread). I mean it is what it is but when you look at server issues, some of it can at least come down to that but alas i don't know the ins and outs of how the forum is set up.

I mean i got attacked for suggesting a loan watch thread because people assumed i didn't want to read the thread, but in reality i just felt it made more sense to keep all stuff in one area like the ex player thread.

However, im not in a charge and its up to the powers that be how they run things, im just merely a poster!

It affected my phone for 20 minutes yesterday morning, being a total non geek, does it pop up on certain days like match days or when the there’s lots of use ?

The loan watch idea really ought to be taken up with the moderators, as we’ve that many out and about now, it just overloads the forum if it’s done on an individual basis.

And yes, I’ve had the damn cookie thing again over the last few days.

Let's be fair this forum is a million times better than a lot of our rivals.

Difficult to find the balance as we don't want an over heavy handed moderated forum.

I have been on forums where they have a thread for every player from signing. And if anyone wants to make comment it brings the thread back to the top.

A single match day thread for each match.


What hurts this is people derailing the thread or people starting a new thread because their opinion warrants it.
