I didn’t mind the suggestive punctuation, it felt quite silly and harmless

On the whole I think the posts have got less sexist and I definitely recognise and appreciate that they get called out much quicker. (This is also true of other offensive posts)

My biggest regret is the lack of posts and the narrowness of them. This is perhaps why the wordle posting stuff gets noticed, because nothing much else is talked about on here now. I think it probably comes from there being fewer posters regularly contributing?

Yesterday I watched the Norwich Leeds game from three years ago and followed it up by reading the Wrath from the time. Of course it was a much more positive time football wise and there was a match to discuss so it was naturally busy on here (and happy!).

What I found interesting a few days later however was there was a really long thread where Arizona Bay (?) asked which rock tune should he pick for a wedding. It generated loads of responses some silly, some deadly serious, all interesting! It felt like a contrast to the Wrath today where that sort of thing doesn’t seem to happen - I could be imaging it mind!

PS AB picked Lovesong by the Cure. Usac replied You basically went for Girlyman rock.

Sigh! Killed it dead
