Title: Top Posters
Elgin_McQueen - April 21, 2006 02:01 AM (GMT)
Just looked and i'm the 35th top poster on this site, nobody in the top 50 joined after I did either, quite happy with that. Can hardly believe Koops post count though, outrageous!!! :o

We have 117 people who have never posted... Why did they join? You can lurk without joining.
I'm number 20, probably mostly because of the gaming league.

You think its funny that Peugeot closed then?
Freddy Hardest - April 21, 2006 02:32 PM (GMT)
Of course not. The same thing nearly happened in here in Oxford when Rover went down the swanee. In the end they kept it open albeit with a vastly reduced workforce. I know a lot of people that were put out of work when they collapsed. I think its funny that the local council are proposing re-employing the workers for this planned casino. Its fairly symptomatic of corporate businesses these days. They just opened a big fuckoff plant in the Czech Republic (I think). The whole situation stinks and is happening everywhere. Take the production to a cheap labour haven and bollocks to the workers. :angry:
koopa42 - April 21, 2006 02:34 PM (GMT)
TBH I'm amazed it lasted as long as it did, 2 good mates fucked now - thats all they've known :angry:
Freddy Hardest - April 21, 2006 02:43 PM (GMT)
Yup. I know a bloke who had worked at the Rover Plant for 30 odd years each (since he was 21). He was unceremoniously booted out when the Japanese took over. That job was all he knew and considered himself too old to train for anything else. He now works in my local Tescos collecting trolleys. Takes the fuckin' piss. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

It's ridiculous, very soon the only jobs you'll be able to get in this country will be IT or call centre staff positions for financial companies. We used to rule the world in manufacturing.

not even that - worse case scenario all the IT and call centres are off to india etc :(

I'm just outside the top 10 i think, but with a measly 600ish posts if i recall... long way to go to match Koops' record 3.14 gazillion! ;)

Properly amazed to find myself in the top ten of people who have too much to say. I've hardly posted since The Great Flouncing Out Of Whenever It Was and I'm still up there. :blink:

HEH!
We might have all been talking bollocks when we posted a 4-figure amount, but it was PROPER bollocks - not the weedy, pseudo bollocks we're getting now. :lol:
Aye they don't talk crap like they used to.... :lol: :lol:

Aye, remember when it was proper bollocks? Threads about toblerones and stubbing your toe. Eeeee, it takes me back does that. That's what's wrong the world today, whippersnappers just don't talk proper bollocks anymore. They can't be arsed. There's no heart in it. It's time they all got off their fat behinds, got a haircut, got a job and put their backs into talking some real bollocks for a change. Earn their way instead of just drifting through the forums posting the occasional bon mot among the list of games threads.. National service, that's what they need. And a spanking. A jolly good thrashing. Hanging's too good for 'em. And sit up straight ffs! What's the world coming to, eh? I just don't know. It's the Alzheimer's I think. :blink:

I'm in IT (I support Mainframe applications), and half our jobs went to Spain and the other half are on their way to India. :angry: They are currently 45 people in one team, doing what about 5 people over here did.

I've just eaten one of those. I always think of Willy Beamish on the Amiga when I eat one :)

If that was the thread there'd be no contest, that poster would win it by more votes than Koops has posts.

Noticing a large chunk of them all joined at the start of September last year, guaranteed at least one forgot their password so joined again with another email address or something.
