Topic: Tribute to the forum Posted: 04 February 2007 at 7:43pm |

I certainly agree with the Media Centre part, it's a great idea and I'm enjoying writing articles for my own blog which I've offered to -JP- to use on the Cricket World website.

i love the forum but if I have one small criticism, I have been a member for 3 days and there arent many posts per day I've noticed. maybe you should advertise this site better. Its really good. Cant you pay google to have it at the top when you type in cricket or something? Or even sponsor a county match or something.

i agree completely but you sometimes come across guys who will give you both quality and quantity and you will prbably find him drinking a beer with his mates at a county ground. He looks at a bill board, sees cricketworld.com in big letters and thinks that he would love a good chat about cricket on the net. Now, you have a new member who will contribute well. It's that simple. (though expenive unfortunately)

The thing I love about this forum, it's the way some members use their witty ability in between the cricket talks. The odd jokes make the forum way more enjoyable.
After posting that, the members are really the ones who make it a great forum and that includes the mods for getting rid of the......ones.

Cricket World Forum has been great. Having joined this forum over a year ago I have been on every since I was sick in May. I suffred from chronic fatigue for about 9 months and in that time not being able to see the people that you know, there isen't much to do I guess. My passion for cricket kept me on this forum where I expressed my views and met many fascinating members. I guess what I am trying to say is Cricket World Forum is a place where you can express your views and read other member's, but whether you are doing either of these the members here make it a great forum!

Well i was following some of the fun and games on this forum when i was bored on the computer, i never knew the rest of the forum was there!!!
anyway i decided to join and since then it has been totally addictive and the only bad thing is, like samhache thinks, nobody posts back quick enough
anyway since i joined ive been on the forum constantly and they should do a forum award system on google because this would win every single cricket one for sure it definately deserves an award
also thanks jp sledge and clobs for keeping this in order (without you it would be a mess)
having looked at other peoples posts about how this IS the best one i looked around and the report is that people are right most are truly dreadful and this is the best
thanks for everythin guys

Believe me, compared to when this place first got going, things happen lightning quick - just ask Sledger!

Yes, agree. I wasn't here in the days of MiNiWaRnEy etc, when the forum wasn't as popular, so I don't know what it was like like. But now this is positively the best forum out there.

Well, I'll put my two cents in, yes it is a very well run forum mainly due to the efforts of JP, Sledge and the ever forgiving Clobber. Cheers Guys, and keep up the great work.

I love this forum, I'v viewed other cricket forums like planet cricket, and I'v read the terms of conditions about registering(whitch I normaly don't do), and after I did that, I through errrrrr too serious, and changed my mind.
I first found this forum when I was looking for a cricket 07(pc game) website on google, and spelt it like "cricket o7" acadenalty, I then clicked on the top site and found the cricket 07 forum, thinking that was the only discusion on the forum, I then registed and since then i'v been addictived to this forum.
Great forum, very addictive, Keep the good work up. It's a good forum, All the other cricket forums like planet cricket have their posts all messed up over the page. This forum is presented so neat and tidy. The people that write posts on planet cricket sound like dips, The way they say things and hardly know anything about cricket.
Thanks guys , For an exalent forum.

The only problem with this forum is that the posts don't come in quick enough. Im sick of writing a post and being the last peron to write a post on the same discusion for a very long time, It takes days sometimes for someone to reply!!!!

If the comment has substance you can be sure they'll be responses
pretty quickly. Alternatively , if the post says little (or nothing)
it'll be greeted with silence.
Logical really.

Magnificent forum!
I've looked through 293 different cricket forums and definatly the neatest I've found so far,I've had troubles understanding some of the other forums.
Another thing is that this forum has jokes as well and that makes it all the more enjoyable(That's right isn't it  ).
