If the HOHs disagree they normally don't come back with a sensible reply but some sort of mocking/abusive post. Weird.

I can only think of two reasons for this campaign.

1. Jealousy of the quality and quantity of your posts.

2. Off season - the club is doing very little at the moment to satisfy the critical desires of the HOHs, so they have chosen you, but you can bite back.

My advise is to either ignore the posts and carry on, or just type "albatross" in response, it works for me when answering the numerous nuisance calls re solar panels, windows technology department, etc.
I’d be happy to foe him if he didnt spam every thread with fake news or perpetuate the positive vs negative poster that he frequently falls back to when challenged.

Whilst his posts may reference the Saints, I don’t see him generating much Saints discussion. I stopped trying to engage him in conversation some time ago because his opinion always goes back to... ‘I’m an insider what would you know’ or ‘my opinion is positive so therefore more valid’ both of which are ridiculous arguments

Pathetic little creatures with nothing else to do than key insults at fellow saints supporters

Nice post. Its a bit of 1 and 2 I believe. Throw in the gang pack mentality along with it also. Its a common trait of human groups across the centuries unfortunately. Many a great philosopher and student of history has never been able to work it out 100%. Someone even dobbed me in to the admin for using a swear word above. Lol.

But anyway, looking forward to a big year in 2019. Go Saints. I am here to talk footy, hopefully the abusers stay away in 2019.

Time for the red glow to return.

Please don’t withhold the nics, I’d love to see who is part of this anti Ted secret society. please allocate a name to each character.

Is it the same unnamed crew who knew what they were doing with the nickname CHO but were too gutless to admit it? :lol:

Who are these mercenaries?
You're not in the pic Joffa, being cool and sophisticated you had slipped inside the saloon to console the lonely lady. Took your gun as well.

Nics from left - True Believer, Saintadamski, Saint Pav, degruch, asiu, The Fireman, St Byron, Hit the Boundary, Skeptic. Based on this thread alone.

I believe not exactly the same crew who were consciously using the infamous nickname, but who knows? That issue has been dealt with.

I think you’ll find there’s a few more than that.

It’s incredible though...
Apparently Pav and I are united, we’d certainly had our conflicts over the years

Certainly Firey and I aren’t on the best of terms either

But everyone’s got together out of jealousy of Ted apparently
Like Peace in the Middle East all of a sudden

Poor Ted, what a victim


The irony of course being it’s Ted himself playing up the group mentality thing when when rear of us have no common opinions other then being sick of the BS posting

Probably a few more, but as I said, it is based on this thread alone. Jealousy/envy can do amazing things, including uniting former foes! Ho Ho.

And you truly believe that the issue is jealousy amongst the 20 or so irritated posters?

No not necessarily, gave 2 possible reasons I could think of in the earlier post.

I only posted re the HOH gang after reading some of the inane responses to some of Ted's simple posts just giving information re the Saints, and whilst this information was readily available on other sites, I find it handy to read on SS, and not have to scan other sites. I have no problem with Ted's posts, and agree with a lot of them.
Fair enough others disagree, but reading though it does seem like a group mentality thing. All good forum fun. Did I pick out you correctly in the HOH group?

Merry Xmas.

I read your post and assumed you were taking the piss, but it seems you are serious.

I stand by what I said to Ted:

"Every thread seems to have you lecturing people.
Please either get a sense of humour or just calm down a bit.
Having you as the constant hall monitor in every thread really gets tedious after a while."

My comment was in regards to him having a crack at someone for not having played AFL so not being worthy of an opinion.

As you do, I also enjoy reading SS for Saints info, and don't notice Teds posts when he sticks to footy.
Unfortunately, he always mixes it with a lecture. Just stick to footy!

Anyways, I hope you and Ted have a nice room booked for Christmas.

As for your gutless snipers comment;
"I believe not exactly the same crew who were consciously using the infamous nickname, but who knows? "
you can stick that where it deserves.

It is hilarious how this has dragged on, all because Ted is sanctimonious (as well as full of shyte) and so a few posters decided to amuse themselves with a couple of drive-bys, purely because Ted was foolish enough to pop his silly head up with a target on it.

Having said that, whenever Ted pops his silly head up it seems to have a target on it. I guess that's a by-product of the intellectually challenged deciding to lecture to the masses......

According to takeaway the man in the red hat is st pav.

Maybe he can elaborate on why he is wearing only one boot.

Poor old St P kept shooting himself in the foot. Can't wear a boot. Knife only now, silent but deadly though.
