The person who created this thread is a mod.
He's the one who Pickled runs to when he grasses.

WHO is an excellent site and massively tolerant. Perhaps too tolerant for the times we live in? But it's lost too many posters in recent years. Why?
I don't think it's because of the crap speed, particularly as Mr Trundle rightly says during games. Most people put up with that and would rather have the opportunity to be effin and blinding without getting kicked off.
So why are we losing people?

I have already done exactly that (not building the site, just reserving the url and paying for it).
If anybody wants to do the site build, in case there is a problem on here, just let me know. Obviously, nothing would be done without the consent of the current mods/gatekeepers.

It's pretty much useable if there's a game on due to the delay in reloading pages or posting.
Which kind of makes it unfit for purpose if it's a football forum.

Re: Let's save WHO !!!

One solution is to build a new site with a new url
Lets say
Westhanonline.uk
In a lovely shiny new server that functions.
Then you migrate everyone over
Unlikely I agree but simple enough

It's like a decent pub
Any big persnal slagging off threads the only ones reading are them who are posting on it, they are just like the bores in the corner of the bar.
It ticks over well.

Hammer Oz 6:50 Mon Nov 15 you come across as a typical attention seeker, you say this site is a "money making exercise" it may have escaped your attention but it hasn't run any ads for years, mainly due to wetwipes like you moaning so the guy that runs it has stumped up thousands since then so cunts like you can write shit for gratis
Glad you're off to be fair

That’s the way to do it Mex
There’s about half a dozen usernames that I naturally filter out and have idea what they post now but I know it’ll be shit

I ignore certain posters and generally only open football threads and find that WHO is fine. Still enjoy coming on nearly every day.
Long live WHO

It's also built a lot of friendships away from the site, started though the site, its raised money for people in shit and saved a few lives along they way. It's lost a few participants who, through the site (aside from their family), have their memory kept alive.
I've never interacted with you in the 21 years I've been coming on and feel this site probably isn't for you.
I don't know why, as someone who says themselves they don't come on here or like it, you feel the need to post such negativity.
Maybe you been in OZ too long and enjoy being the outsider in a group?
I suggest you log out and leave us sad sacks to get on with life. Dont let this site rile you too much mate. It isn't worth it.

Totally agree, like when fanzines were there for the fans it was funny, then it got taken over and was a money making exercise
Same as Podcasts, you can't move for people wanting money for doing something that was a hobby now is suddenly a money making exercise

It does seem to be dying a slow and sad death. It's a great shame as it was once a cracking site that's deteriorated into a forum of bickering, bitter, late middle aged men.
There are still a few gems about, such has Charley F and Irish who stick to posting about WHU and don't get involved with slagging others off.
It needs reinventing, modernising, which would mean building a new platform. Between us, we have the skills to do that but someone needs to oversee that, though I can't see who would want the responsibility.

I hope the site continues, it seems to be such a big part of a lot of your lives, although I think most of you are a bunch of freaks, I genuinely worry about you if this was taken away.

Do I want to pay for this? No way
The idea of putting my hand in my pocket for a group of 5-6 people to lord it over every one, allowing certain posters to spam up the pages (we all know who we mean)
When anyone pops their heads up and mentions it the Overlords gather together and try and bully you down...
Pay???? ermmmmm No
Bothered if it dies a death??????? Ermm No
WHO is like Fanzines, started off great but ended up full of self important bully boys who think that what they do is actually important.
Oooooohhh I am a MOD on WHO.... 99.9999999% of people wouldn't have the slightest clue what the fuck you are on about.
Don't let the door hit you on the arse on the way out lads :)

Has this issue been sorted or is there still a mystery owner paying for the site ?
