This forum is sometimes so annoying to log on to after a defeat. Apparently all our players are shit, this is the worst season ever, all the refs and the FA hate us, the board are just kids who don't know how to do anything, and the manager is an idiot who knows nothing about football.

Get a hold on yourself people, you all sound like over-dramatic teenage girls.

Get a hold of yourself Cho Cho, you sound like an old man that can't handle today's youth.

And don't be sexist, the feminists on here will destroy you.

People have opinions, if you can't handle it I think you are in the wrong place.

Does anyone know why there are so many Spanish/German (et vice versa) people? Mario Gomez, Gonzalo Castro, Daniel Bruhl, a few people I've met, for instance.

Well all people seem to have is negative opinions that imply that no one is good enough. Reading through the threads yesterday, we all sound like spoiled brats. I can completely see why other fans call us plastic. Talk about fickle..

They call us plastic because back in the day of Blackburn winning stuff people started saying they bought the league with credit cards. Credit cards are made of plastic. Now Chelsea has money. Plastic does not and has not ever = fake fan or anything similar. It just means rich.

Don't log on then, if you don't like it. Pretty easy solution Cho Cho.

Look on other forums, it's the same the world over mate. People have opinions when we win and when we lose, but if you can't handle or look the other way on silly/idiotic posts then you shouldn't be on a forum.

Littered with all opinions and all sorts of people.

I just don't get it, if you hate the owner, the manager, the board and all the players, then why the fuck are you even on here?!

I know where the word comes from, but since then it has been associated with glory-hunting fans. And this is exactly what some of our fans sound like.

Well I guess this is just my negative opinion which I'm sharing on the forum just like everyone is sharing his negative opinions..

Because they aren't the club? The last time I checked the club existed before the current incarnation of players, managers, staff, owners, etc. They are Chelsea but Chelsea isn't them. The club existed before and will exist after.

They mustn't be gloryhunting if they are still supporting Chelsea at the moment. If they were glory hunters they'd be at a ManUtd or Juve forum or some shit. Why is wrong to want the team to win all the time? I certainly don't wake up every day and think to myself "Oh boy! I sure do hope my team lose today!" Getting upset shows they care about the team winning. Some people get carried away, but that's only because they are naive or some shit.

But if they don't like anything about the current team, then they're not exactly 'fans' are they?

I'm not criticizing anyone because they want us to win. I'm criticizing people because they show no "support" to any of the players or any thing remotely related to the club. Go read the current squad forum, apparently after yesterday's match everyone in our team should be sold and replaced in the summer and no one is good enough except for Mata and Hazard, and even they have their critics on here. It's frustrating how fast we turn on our players. Ramires is not good enough and should be sold, Moses is not "Chelsea level" whatever that shit means, all of our CBs are shit, people called for Ryan Bertrand to get sold after one bad performance against Shakhtar, thank fuck he had a couple of good games so he;s back to being the next Ashley Cole and don't even get me started on the Mikel abuse.

It just gets on my nerve sometimes how fickle people can be. What happened to supporting your team through win or loss?!!

Liking does not equate to support. I don't like the current team too much yet I still support them.

Ok, I will warn that this will be a rant, but that cant possibly only happen to moi...

Why do some random people come to add us on facebook? I mean, fine, we know each other and all of that, but what is the main reason for you to add me? It is not like you want to know about my life, talk to me or anything like that. Just because you saw me at a fucking party or because you talked to me for 10 min or even because we played football together, it doesn't mean we need to be friends on Facebook or that you need to follow me on Twitter. Does anybody keep hitting friend request every time they see a familiar face? Because that doesn't seem to be a smart thing to do. For me, you all just want to show to mommy how cool you look because you have many friends and a shit amount of activity in your profile. If you just want to increase the number of friends on any social media, count me out. Have a fucking reason to add the person, geeeez. I very much doubt you talk or want to talk with 3k people. I bet you don't care for 90% of them. This has become the banalization of friendship, absolutely ridiculous.

Also, if I did accept it for pity or because you are dam hot, don't go liking all my photos or status updates. There is a fucking reason why nobody likes my photos or comment on it, it is because I don't fucking enjoy it. If you want to comment on something or you saw me at the beach, at Lollapalooza or whatever, why don't you send me a fucking private message instead? I might be offline, but I will reply, just have patience. Don't go commenting "Foda", "Porra", "Xupa Xelsia", "Gostos", etc. Show some interesting and send me something like: "Hey, how is it going? I saw you on the festival and I wanted to know if you had a great time or not…". This is much more honest and sincere (if they aren't the exact same thing in English). I can bet we will have a much better time than by having this stupid attitude.

More than anything, don't go tagging me in awkward situations. There are serious people who can visit my profile and depending on what they see, I can face serious consequences. I have parents, family, professors and even the dude from my scholarship. I can't have photos of me smoking pot or drinking a full bottle of tequila in there. This is no fun, I don't want to spend the whole day untagging. I don't give a flying fuck about likes or reputation, the people who were there with me know what happened and know we had an amazing time, there is no need to keep posting it on Facebook. More than that, how cool is to take a photo in your bathroom while you are naked, half naked, in a stupid bikini or whatever? Fucking ridiculous. All of that so you can have 300 likes? Awesome, you are the king of likes, congratulations. Above all, if you are a girl doing that kind of shit, please remember you have a father who deserves your respect, to say the least.

Now, way more important than my stupid morale. WHY ON EARTH DO YOU NEED TO OVERLOAD MY NEWS FEED WITH IMAGES AND HASHTAGS? I don't know if that alone is what bothers me or the fact only Brazilians do that kind of stuff. Because I have a lot of American friends, Spanish cousins, people from the forum, etc; and they don't spend the whole day doing this shit. However, some Brazilians keep posting religious stuff or 4chan shares and that gets on my fucking nerves. First, if you believe in God there is no need to remind me of that 12323525124 times a day. Second, I follow football too, you don't need to share and post every detail about your club. I see no point in posting things like: "Goooal", "We won", "Come on Corinthians", etc. Third, if I wanted to see every single post this 4chan dude makes, I would fucking follow him. Fourth, why in hell do you need to use hashtag on Facebook? I mean, unless Mark Zuckwhatever invents an utility for it on his website, there is absolutely no need for you to post a picture with 5675674 hashtags on it. Fifth, you don't need to copy and paste what you post on your Twitter, what is the point?

Lastly, this is coming after I did a major clean up right before my parents added me. I had more than 1 thousand photos and even more of my so called friends. If I spent a whole week getting it all in order, I truly don't want that shit appearing again. I should have deleted it all, I just didn't do because I am a pussy and thought I would hurt many people by doing so. 400 friends are already too much, no need to keep trying to add me or pretend we care about one another. It doesn't make you better and nor does it make me an arrogant or unsocial.

Give me a fucking break, this is pissing me off! :rant:

Don't do Facebook it's a conversation killer and if not used right can overtake your life.
