Whatever happened to the TMSB Exiles Cricket forum?
used to be here.
Was quite active, too. A few of us were there in the days between C4 and this place.
Doremi?

Ah, thanks doremi. So they had an 'outage'? Pity, it was a decent sort of MB, not to my taste but was doing quite well.

Was that 'Butch' or 'Bitch'?
I think Trev used to post as 'Butch Bitch'.

Butch went mad and closed it down. There is a replacement.

Butch? How enormously camp. Maybe. PJ probably knows better. He was a few people's bitch on there.
Re: Whatever happened to the TMSB Exiles Cricket forum?
Thought that was why he went mad

As far as I can make out, Butch suddenly announced that he wanted to step down from the TMSB's committee. It would appear that he then received a torrent of abusive emails as a thank you, which prompted him to pull the plug on the original forum.
It reappeared for a week or so minus about 11 months worth of posts.

Well, I for one won't miss it even if a kindly refugee did provide me with linkage when it re-appeared. Very few people have re-registered so far and those that have are either being very random or arguing vehemently. The things some people do over the internet. I wonder if they'll recount wistfully, their eyes misting over, the story of the battle of TMSB in '08 to their young 'uns? To$$ers.

I remember my "welcome" when I first joined - I took exception to what I deemed to be a fairly condescending post from Butch and told him so. Well, you'd think I'd stood up in the middle of the Vatican and called the Pope a raving paedo!

It seemed to be very clique-oriented. Quite an aggressive clique, lots of 'in-house' jokes.
I didn't bother with it very much and stuck to here, PP and Cricket 24/7 mostly instead.
I think the TMSBers are gradually emigrating over to the latter so I'm hoping most of the qunts are filtered out.

The Bails probably seems a bit like that to strangers too.
Not that strangers ever drop in on this dump...

Aye, I had barely visited it in the weeks leading to its demise. I only posted semi-regularly anyway - mostly on domestic stuff.
