They will all be back if they win the title. We had the same with the rangers board

Renoog is/was a sock account.

The most prolific posters appear to be on the Spurs and Leeds boards - the whingeing and moaning is pretty pathetic sometimes but makes me smile.

"The Arsenal Thread" is probably the reason for the lack of articles

Nah, renoog was one of our Liga regulars. He even had a long-running blog and youtube channel for a number of years. He has continued to pop in from time to time in recent years, but only very, very occasionally.

Hey Castor. I just had a quick browse through the last week or so on there, but there doesn't seem to be that many of you.

I didn't mean there was a lack of articles as such though, there's even a fairly decent spread of users still publishing articles from time to time ... it's more that there seems to be comparatively few articles that gain a bit of traction in terms of number of replies, and not that many of you on here on a more or less daily basis.

It's because we are doing good. Just like AFTV, people like to talk when things are going bad more than when it's going good

The Arsenal board has been quite for about 2-3 years or so not just this year.

What's his blog? I liked him

Respected gunner was always amusing back in the days. The JA Arsenal fan base was unique that's for sure.

Kamran was last seen crossing the Armenia-Azerbaijan border.

Kamran I used to find funny. Childish, but in an endearing kind of way.

RGK I never got the hang of; I know he was popular with some, but I never really warmed myself.

Barry, renoog dropped his blog a long time ago. The Backwards Gooner it was called. Iirc, the youtube channel (and I think his twitter account) were mr. renoog.

Wasn't your 'brother' Dot/Upstart an Arsenal fan too? Is he still alive, or did you eat him?

Lots of the posters just upped and left. I think the main reason was it got pretty tiring talking about our seasons imploding in the exact same way over and over again.

Added.

There was RVPM too, but I doubt anyone wants to see him back.

And another I just remembered, and should kick myself for having forgotten until now - Pinky!

JA only thrives when teams are losing. Although for Arsenal it’s only a handful left to what it was before. This site has been running for 12 years so some have probably died

That's a cheerful thought.

Some of those maybe have new profile names?

True, but it doesn't really matter if they're alread around here.

By the way, I don't remember seeing Batmanu around for some weeks. Is it just that I've missed him, or has he gone awol?

I have to say Admins have been both extremely good and extremely bad at the same time!

They have managed this site magnificently, however they have also let it ferment..

Bats is still around, he's on the Arsenal thread and match day thread

Thanks, PP

1man, yeah I know what you mean. They did try with twitter and some other initiatives early on, but then it all kind of stood still. I can sympathise though, as I've got zero marketing drive myself and I wouldn't have had the slightest clue of how to grow this thing.

I have been here for years, done the odd article, but there's rarely much response. A lot of the regulars here seem more obsessed with each other than Arsenal. All that blocking each other or whatever it is! Then there's idiots like ciniwolf who rant on like 5 year olds, it gets boring real fast! Good banter,however harsh is great though, but children swapping insults is boring as.I work late so I'm often the last to respond to anything, maybe that's why I get little response, maybe I'm just a twatt who rants a bit at 4am?

Yeah, it's hard enough to get a discussion going at the best of times, nigh on impossible if you can only post in the small hours.
