Fek has happened to the Competition riders forum.....................:confused:

Description of the forum on the forum front page is: -

Competition Riders
Share training tips and competition experiences posts here.
Please use the 'Pictures' title prefix for image threads & reports with images

I have been away for a couple of months and only dipped in periodically, but having read it over the last few days all I can say is 'madness' :mad::mad::eek::cool:

It's bizarre and I would like to see it go back to it's correct format, not weirdos displaying very troll like behaviour, looking to pick arguments, or saddos posting about horses that don't belong to them as if they are their own - WTF go get a life preferably outside of the forum.

Sorry to all you normal guys, rant over ;):)
 
People have gone back to work today so maybe 'normal' may return.

I enjoyed happy supoortive forum that it was briefly!

Maybe you're right :)

Happy, supportive is great but some of it is just a bit weird - good reminder to everyone not to trust what you think you are seeing or dealing with on the t'internet though ;)
 
It's Christmas - school holidays and people with far too much time on their hands.

There's also a distinct lack of shows on at this time of year, lots of horsess still on their holidays in the field and it's hideous weather! :rolleyes: :(

Hopefully normal service will resume shortly ;)
 
I know..... has all gone a bit NL/Soapbox

Best approach i think is to ignore all stupid posts then they will disappear. Problem is people keept replying to them and/or dredging them back up.....

Roxana post....CS' picture post.....blah blah blah......

That it might be, but it's not CR content. Wish everyone would piss off back tot he NL and SB and amuse themselves there.

that is true ,fair enough :)
iv'e just got here tonight and have now read t'other "making racing safe rubbish" thread

and now see why humor is lacking :( maybe everyone is still off work and bored ?

Yeah but it's been stir crazy before, tis just plain weird at the moment. Perhaps the rain has washed away the active brain cells :)
 
Sadly CR always suffers this kind of weird "limbo" over the worst of the winter. Folk are either out competing/training less than normal or not at all and so there's less relevent stuff to actually post/discuss and we're all tetchier than normal. ;)

Roll on spring and everyone getting out and about again! :D
 
Whilst I find the BD forum dull in the extreme, it does have a well used "Report as Inapproparite" button and BD remove several threads per day. Half the first page in the CR would have gone today, what with thinly veiled adverts and other bullsh**.

Oops, I've done the Swearing At Stupid People AND the Saying What I Think things over the past few days :o:o

and yes, I am bored and stir crazy and fed up with the weather and all my horses have gone doolally :confused::confused:
 
I have no competition stuff to report cos only got the all clear to ride again just before Christmas so I have been unashamedly lurking. I have managed to do 2 schooling sessions but now have incredibly aching stomach muscles so think it will be a while until I stagger back out to a comp:D

And who you calling Old!?:D
 
Jo - what evidence have you seen thus far that this forum has anything to do with Competition?! Surely P is ready to debut at PSG now he's done his 2 schooling sessions? :p

Agree re. the qucik view and return to FB thing.....but I seem to get sucked back in to the forum everytime I have any holiday from work.:rolleyes:
 
FMC I'm delighted you're back. I shall sign up to the Grumpy CR Old Timers Clique if that's ok? GCROTC..... (if you squint quite a bit that looks like crotch to me). Unless my thread was included in your "thinly veiled advertising" definition, in which case I'm not playing with you anymore :mad::p:D.
 
Yep, been lurking as have nothing to report of any interest and have nothing to bang on about except my boob job. :D :p :rolleyes:

Who was it famously said that they didn't want to join any club that would have them as a member - or something like that? :confused: I'll happily stay in my Mad Old Bag Clique, ta very much, but there are a few of us that need dragging out of Lurker Land. *hint hint TableDancer* ;)

PMSL!!! :D

I saw it and thought the same.

Ahhh, hadnt considered you for the advertising section. Thank you for drawing that to my attention ;)

Nothing wrong with a bit of self promotion :D

If anyone wants a cynical, turn out/contact/cheesy chip obsessed dressage judge, i'm your lady.

P might be ready to debut at PSG but I would need oxygen and probably hospitalisation! And when did they change PSG to include dodgy half pass and bendy shoulder in?:D We can do halt though!
