ShrimperZone bigger than Ewes OS!

[Spaceman Spiff]

My Ewes supporting work colleague has just given the game away that the Ewes official site, their main messageboard, has less registered members (about 1300) than us here at ShrimperZone (about 1600)...

We wont even go there on the numbers online at any one time (currently over 100 at SZ - a runwell patient, a gerbil and a ball of lint on the Ewes site)...

Yours smugly,
Spiff

Spiff - I'd be a lot happier with the figures if the "1600" on here were audited and those that hadn't posted for a couple of years (about 1200 of them) were eradicated.

Let's get some realism into this shall we ?

You dont think the same applies to the Col Ewe 1300?

Perhaps these will do the trick instead:

There are only 14 registered members on their site at the moment... rather more than that on here - 60.

They've only ever had 108 concurrent users (including guests) - we've had 165 and regularly have more than 108 (we have as I type this)...

What's made you all hormonal all of a sudden?

I'm certainly not knocking the site at all and I'm definitely not hormonal (in pain yes, but I'll live !!!!!!) but I have a pet hate for misrepresentation of facts - e.g. Barrett is a good footballer

I havent misrepresented any facts though have I?

We regularly have more concurrent users than their record number

We have more registered users

These are facts my friend! Of course not all registered members post all the time, but the same is true of all internet sites that people can register with - it applies no more to us than them!

This is just something else to laugh at Col Ewe about really

Seeing Mr Harris on my doorstep won't be a surprise, it'll be a bloomin' miracle.

So I take it no one is prepared to get rid of all the defunct posters then ?

It is incorrect grammar to put an exclamation mark after a full stop

We are looking for un-employed riff-raff to sift through the members' list and let us know when each poster last posted.

ORM do you want the job ?

No it isn't, it's incorrect syntax - as is ending a sentence without a full stop, much like you have just done.

So ner.

I'd like to think that it's this sort of thrilling grammatical debate that is attracting so many people to ShrimperZone.
