elampiro:

When I first came to this thread, I posted everything about United. But the insult was too much then I left. I came back and we were arguing about Wayne Rooney. I got insulted several times for no just reason, then I realised it was to frustrate me to leave. I decided not to let anyone to bully me. For no reasons people insult and you Starboard was the second person to insult me for arguing about Rooney.

On the issue of derailing thread. I am sure I have posted news about Madrid president on Ronaldo and Bale. I posted about Neyman going to Barca. No one insulted me them or accused me of derailing the thread. It was only when I posted about Super Eagles. I am sure if I posted about Berbatov, you guys wouldn't have complained, but since it's Tevez you guys are angry. Tevez is an ex United player and his news will always be a big news in football. I will also post news about Becham, Cantona, etc when they become good football news. They are ex- United.

Even if a thread is derailed, is it with insults you correct people?

Firstly, if you dish it, you should be ready to take it.
You've insulted people in the past, myself inclusive, so listening to you appeal for sanity makes me kind of laugh.
When you engaged in verbal barbs with coogar, it wa all fun and games, but here you are trying to play the victim because someone decided to take the issue up on your case.
Pointing fingers at me won't help your case either. You are acting like a Pharisee.

Secondly, admit that you derailed the thread.
No one is perfect here,so doing so doesnt make you less of a person.
The Tevez news had nothing to do with United. Even if you want to use the excuse of him being an ex-United player, I'm pretty sure no sane United fan would want to associate themselves with him given the way he has conducted himself at our side after he left.
So I wonder how you think the Tevez news is anything to do with us.There is no direct co-relation with United whasoever in that article.
If I decided to post about Chris Eagles move to Bournemouth or wherever, or maybe Jonathan Spector or Luke Chadwick,won't this thread turn into Tejuoso market?

SailorXY: ^^^ WORD!
I think for the first time I agree with you. Someone waved at me sometime ago in traffic while I was driving my mum to pick up something @ Lekki Round-about, I didn't recognize the face but I waved back. I later got a PM, the man who waved me was a nairalander that recognized me from my profile picture! I was amazed, the man looked fresh with a very nice SUV. I later found out he was actually in the 'government'. We should respect ourselves here, I am not even 'that old' to be angered by insult *I don't even notice* but I believe respect is give & take thing. Let's make here more habitable for new comers.

na God save u say d guy no be person wey u don abuse for here. Hin for just break ur head dt dai.

dayokanu:

SHarap there!!!

You wey your last born do WAEC this year na him dey claim say he never old :d

My insults were only a return for earlier several insults. I never for once insulted anyone first. Once I realized that someone keeps repeating insults on me, I hit back to let the person know exactly that I too can be hard. When I left here temporary due to insults, I never for once replied anyone. That first time I was just bearing it, when I came a second time, I would tell the other party first that he is resorting to insult, but when they persisted, I retaliated. Go back and check the history between two of us- elampiro vs starboard.

I had earlier pointed out that there is no moderator here that the insults were too much, but Coogar said football is an emotional game and there won't be way without some insults.

Last Sunday I made a resolution that I am never again going to indulge in such. Go and read if for once I retaliated any of Coogar's insults last Sunday. Moreover, in my 8 yrs in nairaland, this thread was the first place I insulted anyone. I was forced into retaliation and to refused to be bullied.

My question is, is insult not part of the rules? Why is the moderator not acting?

Second question, how does derailing a thread warrants an insult? Go back to the two people who reacted to the Tevez post. Compare Xailor's reaction to Coogar's.

The issue here is not who insulted first. You insulted people and you want respect.
It doesnt work that way.

You are correct. But there is an adage in my place- 'if you push even a goat to the wall it will bite'.

StarBoard: Na wah o.
When did this thread become the morals/good behavior forum?
Elampiro is even preaching good manners when he clearly derailed the thread.Instead of accepting his role in the matter and taking responsibility he has suddenly turned to Pope Francis IV.
We were discussing United, from left-field came an article on Tevez to Juventus.
Apparently people do not read the rules placed above the posting field.If that isn't derailing I wonder what now can be termed that.
Funny we have more Ghandis and Mother Theresas preaching peace and leaving the cause of rancour.

You are obviously an instigator. Do you have a problem with a rancour free atmosphere? What is the import of your write up above? Posting an article about tevez is not enough to cause bad blood. Little wonder this thread cannot go up 3 pages without either you or Coogar stroking cocks with one person or another. This is a FOOTBALL thread, no be Oyingbo market.

StarBoard:

This is not about respecting people. Its about respecting the space. When you keep it sane, it b interesting. You guys are just turning this place into shit by your needless "over the top" banter.

Which puddle did this bull-frog jump out from?
The fact is that the thread WAS derailed.Any other thing you say is irrelevant.
If you feel this place is foul, stay out of it instead of preaching peace when you get found out.

Are we in a vacuum here?
How can you respect the place without respecting peoples' views?
Am I sure I'm talking to a human and not a crash-test dummy?

Ok. First step. We agree.
I am not here to say who is right or wrong.

Don't ask me my source

StarBoard is an idiöt!

The same wankër that was almost reduced to tears, screaming blue murder a couple of weeks ago because of 'insults' is now having a wänkfest on top the same matter. Oloshi!

When the fool was getting pounded, he cried an ocean on here - now, he thinks he has an easy target in Elampiro, he is sporting a raging härd-on!

And the hypocritical lunatic has the chutzpah to label someone 'Pharisee'? Koni daa fun e lai!

StarBoard:
Thanks.
I'm hardly around.Just enough time to say a few and buzz off.
Plus I can't stomach some behaviour anymore. It's a new year.Someone's gotta channel his energies into something more profitable than a d1ck-measuring contest with some juveniles/charlatans in a largely-anonymous forum.

how have you been? Trying to reach you on e-mail.

StarBoard: [b][/b]
Been saying same all season long, but I got labelled all sorts of names.
If we had at least one, the outcome would have been different.
Please don't mention Anderson. Please.At least not to my reading.
The closest we got to that type of player was Fletcher.

https://www.nairaland.com/871307/official-manchester-united-fan-thread/168#14638748

StarBoard:
Sorry to seem that way.
Just that certain peeps tend not to respect other counter opinions without name-calling.
Wonder why.

https://www.nairaland.com/871307/official-manchester-united-fan-thread/168#14639400

StarBoard:
Seen it.
Thanks mate.
will hit you soon.
As per opinions, like Cristalz said, it's a faceless forum. I appreciate that everyone is not going to think like me, but denigrating peeps at the slightest opportunity defeats the purpose of getting diverse opinions.
That's why I try to stay away even when I manage to get free time.
If people aren't mature enough to discuss without insulting then I'm sure the place isn't better than a sanitorium, really.

https://www.nairaland.com/871307/official-manchester-united-fan-thread/169#14655255

StarBoard: @coogar,
Stop these insults please.
It doesn't do anything for you or anyone at that matter.
You've made your points.
If they are as superior as you think they are, there shouldn't be any need to resort to insults.

https://www.nairaland.com/871307/official-manchester-united-fan-thread/181#14806247

StarBoard:
There's a reason why I implored you to stop the insults.
You're more knowledgeable than some people,but you want to reduce yourselve to their level by trading barbs.
Now you'll slap my face.
I think you need to grow up, really.

by the way, the Abacha reference is stale.

Leave the bloody hypocrite. He has finally found his voice. Such a pity its second skin to him, getting on here and stinking out the whole joint with his comrade in arms Coogar

Manchester United have just bid for Everton left-back Leighton Baines as David Moyes looks to strengthen his squad ahead of his first season at Old Trafford .

The left-back if signed would replace the aging Patrice Evra who is wanted by former club Monaco.

The bid is around £10million, an amount that is understands will be rejected out of hand by the chairman Bill Kenwright. (Source: The Mirror, The Times, Red Mancunian, Metro) #mufs

Wetin we won use Baines do? Pls we have Buttner & Evra is still buzzling... I'm more interested in thn MF, why the mute about Thiago? Goal.com report on him today about a utd move is equivocal, the transfer window is boring

According to Dennis Irwin Cesc Fabregas is the priority signing for the United board.I don't think we will sign both Fabregas and Thiago Alcantara,i guess it will be a more defensive minded midfielder e.g Strootman plus either Thiago or Fabregas.

Everton has rejected Manchester Unityed £12m bid for Baines.

Will the bid be increased?

Does this mean Evra will go to the bench? There is something special about Evra's game but there is also something wrong with his defending.

Katangora: Wetin we won use Baines do? Pls we have Buttner & Evra is still buzzling... I'm more interested in thn MF, why the mute about Thiago? Goal.com report on him today about a utd move is equivocal, the transfer window is boring

I beg Butner is not a United material. He doesn't have the quality.

Evra leaves so much space on the left of our defence for opponents to explore. He is easily beaten too. But I can't tell if Baines is the answer.

I also doubt that Buttner is the answer from what i have seen of him.his postioning isn't good and he often resorts to last ditch tackles,on the other hand he has got some pace and he overlaps well.he could be a good sub at LB but not first choice for now

After how manx appearances do one recognise a utd material? Abeg the dude should be given a chance.. It's not as if he has totally flopped in the few game he has played

Any dime we pay on Baines is a total waste! Heck, wetin we wan use am do sef?? Evra is still there, Buttner & Fabio as understudy, the young lads need opportunity like Rafael & Welbeck. Make Moyes take time with that his Everton raid ooo... He dines with kings now, he shouldn't soil their meal

LOL if its going to b evra,buttner and fabio then d young boys should be given matches to get some experience n opportunity and also rest evra.d guy has no business playing league cup and fa cup matches if he is to remain at his best.i can remember abt 3years ago i was already complaining abt d number of 90minute matches d guy was piling up

Pep Guardiola: "I propose that from the next season, Referees for the knockout stages of the Champions League should be from the best leagues - Not from Leagues that have been known to fix matches. You all saw what happened to Manchester United last season against Real Madrid. That was a horrible thing. United deserved to reach the semi- finals at least. They played with their heart. They were unbelievable."
