1- he acts like one, I'm saying in a good way, to kick off. he also seemed to distinguish himself from yoyo and Sir_Didier_Drogba or other supermods, and he's the only active administrator left.
2- that I strongly disagree and found a bit idiotic thing to say from a guy with your caliber.. I'm all for free speech, and I hate oppression regimes created by admins on the internet forums.. you know "das experiment" stuff.. yet freedom of speech has nothing to do with gross posts.. again it may happen from time to time, and I never had any problems with whoever posted them.. but when I ask them to be removed from a forum admin and he ignores, telling me to live with them (or even posting them) then I have problems.. I have a boring explanation about this including my understanding of responsibility and hate against power abuse, but really, fuck it...
3- that again I partly disagree, though I might admit you have talked some sense through.. the fact that main site, soccergaming.com isn't updated anymore might be a killer factor.. and maybe social media and stuff has damaged the concept of forums.. but, this site has something like 200.000 registered people over the years that makes over 12.000 new members/year so where the fuck are they? you don't need to sign up to see the site content, and yeah most of them just sign in once and never come back again but come on man, 12,000/year, roughly 35 new members/day.. every single day for 15 years!.. and SG Players Lounge has only like 5 new posts since the last 24 hours.. if you are still willing to think that social media or main site is the main factor behind this, you're avoiding the truth..
4-the thing I critise about yoyo, fili and skip are all very specific.. on the other hand I really really adore fili's witty posts, he's extremely funny most of the time which is a trick that is hard to pull, I like yoyo's posts and videos, and to be honest I struggle to call anything interesting about skip, though long ago I had some positive memories from his STML days.. I don't really like the new back door skip.. so I'm not saying they're destroying here..
5- not that important but that is irrelevant, you can still live in large cities and act like a rural.
