  1. Ok, I can see ads after almost every post - I'll see if I can reduce that to one per topic.
  2. Let me have a look at it; but without the ads we'll have to turn it off. There is an option to contribute monthly to get rid of the ads, and then there's always adblockers - I mean, do what you have to do, but it if everyone did that we'd back at my initial point. I'll see if I can scale them back a bit, please bear with us.
  3. Wayback Machine. Unfortunately they didn't crawl into the actual thread/topics, but there is still a lot of stuff just under the indexes.
  4. The internet is a different place these days, there's a lot of hate out there. The function of being able to switch clubs boards by just selecting a team on a drop down menu was so simple, it was a great feature.
  5. There wasn't one. JKL's provider Rivals implemented a newer board (the one seen in the screengrabs above was the earlier version) in the mid 00's and it wasn't usable at all. We launched OWTB in late 2006 on a different server, and migrated to this in early 2007. Both JKL and OWTB existed side by side for a little while, but that new board killed it unfortunately.
  6. We'd thought that we'd look back at the Latics community on the internet, to where it kind of all started for many of OWTB's members today. From PlakkiLakki to The Ghost of Brendan McManus to Fat Bloke In Orange - these were the names of just some of the regular characters on the forums from the mid to late 90's, where you there back then?
  7. Perhaps, so I'd ignore it - I know that if it got under my skin and I didn't gnore it, it would make me a very bitter individual.
  8. Everyone is entitled to an opinion and sure, everyone is entitled to a differing opinion; if I spotted an opinion I didn't agree with I would offer a counter and leave it at that. What I wouldn't do is go on and on about it at every possible opportunity - as if it would change someone's mind...
  9. Calm down those who need to, those who won't will be gone. I've have enough - you can have your little keyboard wars somewhere else.
  10. I'm pretty sure story of the titular fool on the hill is that he's misunderstood by everyone, yet he's the wisest of them all.
  11. There has to be a bogeyman to blame, because some people can't admit to being wrong.
  12. I can tell you that it's on and you can show the message to your missus, if that helps.
  13. Of course, but why did you get involved in this instance?
  14. That's between them, then. There's absolutely no need to get involved, and I have no idea why you do.
