    Here's my two cents.

    I dislike the 50 post limit in the Soccer forum. That would be the only forum I would have interest in yet I am found posting in other forums I wouldn't post in otherwise just to meet this limit.

    I think if you are a geniune poster you should have a case to get in, regardless of post count.

    This has been brought up hundreds of times. Do a search, the forum was closed down a few years ago because of muppetry and flame wars. The restriction is very necessary. It's not the end of the world, you'll have another 20 posts in no time.

    weel im willing to debate it with you for another 18 posts

    i think its probably because a certain element is attracted to this particular sport

    Indeed there are probably genuine users but the rules are there for a reason. The forum was shut down a few years ago and has had a number of rule changes since then to keep things going.

    Usually takes me at least 50 post to ascertain whether a poster is genuine or not.

    I don't think you are genuine yet...but i just can't tell.

    I understand everybody must abide by the rules, but I guess I'm a boring guy since no other forum interests me.

    thanks for your help guys, I guess I better keep posting!

    Don't mean this in a bad way, but surely some other forum would be of interest. If it's just soccer you want, there are millions of other places to go?

    you'd be surprised at this. boards' is relatively unique among football communities. probably part of the reason why it's been so prone to trouble makers in the past too.

    I am on other football forums like my own, but I like boards and I'd like to be at least able post in the soccer forum to debate with my fellow Irish on my fave subject.

    Only 16 more posts.

    Just do what Sherifu does, he'd have those 16 posts done in roughly 8 minutes.

    Don't think going around posting:

    "Mary likes Dick"

    is going to get you access though.

    Quality as well as quantity.;)

    Boards covers just about everything there is to discuss (except bridge) so surely there's is something that you can talk about...

    Do you have a dog? a car? do you get the bus? etc...

    Writing "Mary loves Dick" won't get me access to a lot of things.
