This forum seems to just be a EA forum but with no moderators? What is the difference?

Re: Strange
Yeah pretty much what Torres said.

Re: Strange
It was created because the original Real Football forum was closed and when EA moved us to the new one, it was crap, it had nothing, no quick reply, no smileys, it was slow as hell, and the layout was/is just plain shit, so Mal made this one.Jayx1012 wrote:Why was this forum created?
EA have improved their forum a bit since, but this is still better, you know why? Because you don't have EA mods running it.

Re: Strange
It still doesn't feel the same as the old EA.
The old EA had people you "knew" and a load of randoms.
Everyone "knows" everyone here.
We need to get more randoms, thus more wind up potential.
Get on it modmins!

Re: Strange
There is a few reasons as to why this forum is better than the EA forum...
1) EA moved to another forum. One that is much slower, has less functionality, and is not visually appealing. The speed on there is so slow that it's not worth the wait.
2) You have more freedom in this forum. No more stupid swear filters and ridiculous bans & infractions.
3) The best members of the old EA forum are here. On the EA forum, you had much more trolls and plain retards.

It was fun when you had that one or two retards on the forum. But then it got really annoying really fast. You had about 10+ trolls.

Re: Strange
The moderators on the EA forums are so strict, they wont even let you say Scunthrope because of the "cunt" in the middle.
And i swear i got banned for posting a slightly graphic image.

True. I really liked some of them though. That Afyx was one funny fucker. Always typing "Sikander Farooq" and the Animal XI was classic.

I remember this one time there was this friggin hilarious troll on the EA forums, think he was called Icecreamboy or something. He made a complete ass of himself on his first account so he decided to start making multiple accounts and going on all of them at the same time and claimed that all the accounts he made wasn't him despite making it VERY obvious. He litterally made threads saying "i duno why every1 is sayin im dis icecreamboy, im srsly not ive just made acount." That was classic.

Re: Strange
If you want my honest oppinion, this forum is better than the new ea one but its still shit (no offence to whoever made it).
The old ea forums you could actually have proper football discusions but on here people just post in the chat thread and theres usually not many football topics on here.
I think its that Royal guy or whatever his name is who made this forum and it could have been some forum if they actually went all the way, advertised etc to get more football fans in.
I hardly come on here anymore because its always the same 4-5 people I see talking football, the rest talking be talking about chocolate bars and haircuts and shit like that in the chat place.

We need to advertise.
The best post on the old one was the one about Celtic's back four if they had signed Rod Fanni.

Re: Strange
It's shit here compared to the EA forums from 2008 to early 2010.... when everyone got banned and then just spammed the forums, the forums went downhill real quick.
This isn't better than the good period over at EA, although it's better than the current FIFA one, although that's just saying it's the best of the worst.

Erm... No ?
You would see atleast 100 people atleast on the real football section at one time on the ea forums. Theres usually less than 10 here usually.
Half of the people are usually just talking about non football related stuff anyway.
The old EA forum was the best footy forum I have ever been on it feels shit to not have that type of forum anymore.

I never ever went into the Real Football Chat Thread over on the old EA Forums. I was always on the other topics that people made. I do miss those days, I must admit.

It's hard for any site to be noticed to new members after only being live for two months. Real football on EA was popular cos most people were on them forums talking about FIFA.
We made this forum specifically for the people from EA to come over, we've had a few new members but they barely come back cos the stupid URL or some just can't take the banter.

I like these forums better.
The new forum is a joke...slow, and have so many trolls.
We get a few more good members are we're rolling.
