Forum appreciation day

Just a general note of thanks to Isaac specifically for hosting this wonderful forum but also to all of his unseen moderators, you do a mighty job.

So often we are all blinkered in our appoach to our posts. We believe we have the right of speech (which we do in moderation) sometimes we are fair and accurate in our posts sometimes tired and tempermental or downright hostile depending on topic, time of day, and state of mind.

Personally I try not to post something until I've taken my fingers from the keyboard for a few minutes. Sometimes I type a rely and hit close instead of send.

Basically my message in this is we should all appreciate what we have.

I read where Isaac is accused of favourism all over the place.

Isaac must be a parent/coach/player/junior player/referee/scoretable/statistian/evaluator/floor wiper and dancing girl because he is accused of favouring each one at some stage or other.

At some stage he must favour
sturt/west/woodville/forestville/southern/south/north/eastern/centrals in no particular order

then he must had said teams equally as much. if he locks topics he is accused of bias if he doesn't lock topics he is accused of bias.

Keep up the good work Isaac and all of your various helpers.

I vote for Issac to be a dancing girl. Preferably one that is female. Preferable one who looks like a Newcastle Knights cheerleader.

I would hate to see Isaac in a miniskirt. It brings back images of Bizzy.

(You know I hate these threads about me!)

BTW, my only bias is towards the dancers because they're awesome - hi girls!

A lot of these thanks should go to the moderators who help clean up around the place - Hoop Addict, Libertine, DJ, Double Clutch (he's useless though, other priorities, pfft!), Bo Hamburger and Bizzy has recently been added too.

I was trying to make the point (badly it seems) that even though you show no bias you are accused of it at every turn.

Thanks also then to Hoop Addict, Libertine, DJ, Double Clutch, Bo Hamburger and Bizzy

Ta a bunch guys.

Is that bias towards dancers ( plural) or dancer ( singular)?

Whilst TB and I dont usually get along, have to agree for once ;) and say thanks Isaac as well.

I know how much hard work you out into this thing, and I know how much it took to get going in the first place, but to see what it has become (even though some days I DO wonder!!), we have a great place here to express thoughts, opinions and facts, and have healthy debates.
