Topic: Tribute to the forum Posted: 08 December 2006 at 7:15pm |
Id just like to say how much I now realise how good this forum is, when
I was briefly banned all other cricket forums were awful. I dont want
to sound like Dips and start saying you guys are my family  but Id just like to say great forum and keep it up!

Over the time the forum has improved a lot and the process continues and I feel no hesitation to say that it couldn't be possible without the mods and admins doing a fantastic job, although nobody is perfect. As per my knowledge, this is the best cricket forum which is exclusively dedicated to cricket. All the best for good work mates.

I've seen other forums. This one out ranks them.
Nothing else to say.
Thanks Mods and Admin.

Yeah, by large the best forum in the world allthough I have been on no other ones. It's a fantastic place to chat and share your views and also you learn what people of other backgrounds are like for e.g the English are great with wit and the Aussies are dead serious about the game.

maybe thats where England have been going wrong all these years, theyre
more interested in the lunch time banter than the lunch time team
talks. I wouldnt say Shane Warne was the most serious person ever but I
suppose there have to be exceptions.

Very nice, Hugo. If you're going to criticise, then please do it constructively - what can we do better? What is/isn't working, for example?

I honestly think that this forum is better than the others which is why I chose to join this site over all the rest, all the other forums I've looked out are either of a very poor quality of posting or the members there don't know anything about cricket. I even saw a couple of forums with links to porn on them!
Also Hugo, does this forum that's better than this site as you say have exclusive interviews with international cricketers, umpires, match referees etc, have it's own live commentary and have live radio commentary on each international cricket match? I think not!
So I think Cricket World out runs all the other forums by a considerable amount.

There's only so much we can do on a forum as regards equipment, but as a site we're hoping to do a lot more things. Watch this space...
The magazine has extensive equipment features in too.

This Forum is simply the best in the world. It's 100 times better than the others and i must pay a lot of respect to the bigger guys ( Sledger, Clobber, -JP- ) who keep this forum under good order and control.
Just keep up the good work and all the best.

The recent addition of "Media centre" have made it an even better place.
