Role of rain in semi final line-up

[Dan]

Ok, so, if my last post wasn't abundantly clear, cut out the 'my team is better than your team' bullshit

Amirfan, you've misread the culture of this place. We're happy to have ypu if you want to chat cricket, but it's not going to be much fun if your only contribution amounts to 'Pakistan= good, whichever country you look like you come from = bad'.

Flem, you know better. Cut it out.

 

[G.I.Joe]

Oh piss off. You didn’t need to bring politics into it. You always were a bitter prick.

Pakistan has had other great moments in sporting history, and not just in cricket.

Listen buddy, you keep the unfounded India blaming out of that Sarfaraz Bengali thingy and I'll follow suit accordingly. Bit rich this coming from you, blanking out that entire Pakistan-Bangladesh history from '71 and trying to pin that on India, don't you think?

Seriously though, is Squash an actual competitive sport? I thought it was one of those pretend sports that kids do in PE class or they randomly have at country clubs like Croquet or Polo or Badminton.

And I know field hockey is in the Olympics so I guess some people take it seriously but I've never seen a Pakistan team

all in all though I don't think it's a bad thing that Pakistan excel at cricket and not much else. For a country that's been through everything they have, with the conditions and monetary issues they've done ok for themselves, sporting wise.

1 day of no cricket and the forum descends into chaos

Behave yourselves

I really need it to continue it's not even 11am and I've already done my work for the day.

continue in a civilised and respectful manner I mean, of course

How have you been respectful. Pissing on another country’s sporting achievements and being condescending about Pakistan having monetary problems.

You’re mental. I wasn’t blaming India at all. I was just explaining in the other thread how someone I knew was offended and they were Indian!!! And Neill asked a political question, whereas you bought it up here to have a go.

What’s this? Criticise Pakistani fans for complaining and that’s fair but you don’t need to hit below the belt.

dude it seems as though you thought I was being sarcastic but I wasn't. I was complementing the country and it's fighting spirit. I have a lot of Pakistani friends and respect most of them greatly. A few are ****s.

Ok my bad.

AN’s sarcasm/joke/troll detector is malfunctioning hard

Also GI Joe wtf dude he never blamed India

Holy crap did this thread descend in my absence. That's what happens when you let Tendulkar fans go on believing he's better than Shaun Marsh.

I do find it hilarious that of all the rubbish posting in this thread, it was Burgey who got banned, who legitimately was one of the least worst posters.

Anyway, it's all well and good suggesting that Tendulkar might have been in the top twenty ODI players of all time but geez he's nothing compared to Tim Paine. Bevan.

Burgey was probably due. I'm not going pretend to know, or care, about "infraction points" and how they work but in all seriousness if you don't get banned every now and then you're probably a boring poster.

 

[Borges]

The greater the quality of the poster, the higher the bans to post ratio. The highest quality posters get banned permanently.

Is that a record for one thread?

i imagine there are threads from england/india 2012 and that entire period that have at least double that

 

[Dan]

Fin.

9 infractions worth 52 points, ftr. 300 posts in the thread, so that's 0.17 infraction points per post. FMD that's surely a record.
