New Members...are they welcome?

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Hmm there has been a rather sudden influx of new members, are they being redirected from somewhere? :shock:

This place has a unique character created by the regulars on here. As long as newbies don't try and change that they'll be OK.

BDB, Swale & Tongue Guy have been good because though they have very different views to the regulars, they appreciate the banter and (largely) have taken it and given it back.

I've never felt excluded or felt there were cliques on here, it's all good.

Im still here!!! I love it on here, I think it was me who used the word "clique" in a rant one time so i take the blame for that one :oops:

Obviously my views dont reflect the masses all the time, but at the same time some of them do (honest!), I enjoy it on here, is hard if your new and have the views that me, swale and AT have sometimes, but its all good, always good to speak with people who don't share your views, football is opinion after all!

The term clique was used on here long before you mate so there is no blame there

I think the newcomers need to just get posting and joining in might be a bit daunting at first but everyone is welcome

I'm almost on 100 posts...It would have helped alot if since I joined I hadn't been so poxy busy at work!!

Do enjoy reading the stuff on here and posting when I can. Things can sometimes seem to get a bit personal but I don't think anyone means it, just that the Arsenal gets the passion going in us all.

Yeah i would tend to agree with this...apart from the bit about busy at work...as over the last two weeks ive been about as busy as Phil Brown in the transfer market! :lol:

but yeah i do enjoy a good Arsenal chat, and even though i have a go sometimes, its mainly because i feel so strongly about the Gunners and hate to see people slagging them!
