That Ronaldo pic is definitely polemic. Wonder what Irina thinks of that.

It is just sexual when he breaks on the counter. I've never seen anything better than those long legs just tearing the pitch apart
I hope you changed your pants after that post.

ok, lets act as if this not a football forum but an archive where everything must be in order
There is a thread specifically made for comparing the two players, and there are two threads for discussing just the individuals. It's really not a hard thing to follow and no reason not to keep discussion in the relevant threads.

The reason being people can't follow a very basic system of keeping discussion in the relevant threads. There is no point in ruining this and the messi thread with messi vs ronaldo stuff every single game, when another thread exists for that very purpose.

its a football forum and topics flow, and if its related to ronaldo, i cant see how the post isnt relevant, even if its comparing ronaldo's goals to messis goals

and how about comparing ronaldo with bale, or with aguero, or robben?

should we start a thread about every pair we talk about?

where should we ask if ronaldo is better than distefano, pele or maradona?

because those topices arose more than once

I see the point you are trying to make by exaggerating, but the Ronaldo v Messi debate is a completely different beast than any other comparisons - and any debate will eventually be derailed or just descend into the same sillyness as always - which is why it would be far tidier to use the "vs" thread. Is this something we should get an executive ruling on perhaps?

It's not relevant in any other player thread. You don't see pages and pages of people comparing Robben, Bale, Rooney, Di Maria etc to others, with people having to look back 10 pages just to see what Ronaldo actually did that day to ignite the usual debate. We already know this, because we had to create a messi vs ronaldo thread several times before, as the exact same argument being spammed over game after game ruined the threads. We have a thread now for people looking to continue the messi vs ronaldo debate, so that's where those posts should go.

Is there a debate to be had out of that statement? I suppose I don't see the point in it requiring a response when you consider how many times it will be said. Many people believe Ronaldo is the best player in the world, many or more think Messi is. Those type of comments will usually come after either player does something great, which is basically every game, so I don't get what people think they will achieve by arguing the opposite when it obviously won't change any minds and the same thing will happen the next game anyway.

Why not just post "Messi is the best player in the world" in the Messi thread?

you, spoony and RadoN used to be interesting to talk to

not anymore, this is not porn, this is not insulting, this is not even calling bad names to the mods, wich we used to have a lot

this is about what can be argued in a thread
Yes, and constant Messi vs Ronaldo arguments get tedious when it's all that's ever discussed.

This is like Harry and Voldemort.

Neither can live whilst the other survives.

No Hectic vs Marcos comparisons in this thread please. Use their own threads to discuss either of them.
:lol:

Now it's just arguing for the sake of arguing. Pretty reasonable what the mods are trying to do.
