If so why isn't said stuff in Cricket Humour?

If there's no serious point to it whatsoever why does it belong here?

Are "caption this" pics the only thing allowed in there?

Cricket Chat - Let's talk Cricket! Tests, ODI, Domestic, Squad Selections and everything you can think to say about cricket.

Cricket Humour - Come in here if you feel like a good laugh or care to share one of your funny little cricketing moments with us.

Taking something lightly and having a laugh about it are two different things. We are not laughing with this thread, we are having fun and discussing a cricket issue that is not meant to be taken seriously.

There's no serious point to any of the discussions held on CW because they won't make a difference in real-world cricket. Let's put them all in Cricket Humor, shall we?
Several members consider this an interesting exercise which is very much related to cricket (and not purely humor). That's why it belongs here.

Those descriptions are sufficient to me to suggest that this should be in CH not CC.

:sleepy: If you follow that route there's no point to anything at all because we'll all die eventually...

You've got to draw a line somewhere and IMO this sorta stuff should fall on the CH not CC side.

Listen, I know not everyone can contribute to such meaningful conversation as whether Hayden or Gilchrist should be listed first on an ODI XI, so bear with us simple folk as we make our lists.

Seriously though, from what I've seen from your posting, you categorically take cricket from being a fun sport that people enjoy discussing into a geeky, tedious, science like activity. The way you idiotically dissect posts and carry on, really kills the forum atmosphere and drives people away from cricket chat.

I'd find anyone’s list here infinitely more interesting than any of your posts in your recent comeback and I think most would agree and now you have the nerve to criticise this.

So kindly stfu.

Kindly wait to see if you're completely incorrect before making such insolent statements.
