My boss is a Nick (the one mentioned in ruined/made thread), must be something to do with the name, if anyone wants their son to be a **** just name them Nick.
Got a brother named Nick. Him living in Malaysia, QLD, France, QLD and now Belgium over the last decade has made him much easier to tolerate.

Welcome, Mortimer. I look forward to your posts as the season unfolds!

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Famous Mortimer wrote:Hello all, long time lurker, first time poster. I have to admit, this de-lurking campaign has worked on me. Very well played. I believe GE posed a few questions to us former lurkers on the first page, so I will try to address these.

1. How long have you been reading The Greenhouse?

This may seem stalkerish, but I believe I've been reading since maybe 2004-2005, back when people would be discussing the merits (or not) of Tyran Smith and Ian Hindmarsh. Just to get my head around things did Raider 69 become Nick then become Pigman? Is Buc Nasty now Rodman? What happened to Bay 56? Is Question a real person

2. How long have you been a Raiders fan?

My parents grew up in Canberra so I always followed them, but only started getting serious in the early 2000s when virtual rugby league started to gain traction with my friendship group. Then, during Uni at UC, I worked security during Raiders games. Had the pleasure of working the turnstiles then walking the field of play. I once delivered a perfect spiral pass to Monnas when the ball was kicked dead (Monnas then just threw it away). Managed to flirt with Germ's wife while working outside the change rooms (on a separate occasion at North Bar, he hit me in the head accidentally when describing why he shouldn't have been suspended for a high tackle on Shayne Dunley). I also received a sincere apology from Alan Tongue when I told him his injury was affecting my virtual team (such a ridiculously nice guy).

3. Who's your favourite Raiders player of all time?

From personal experience, Troy Thompson. He used to live next door to me in the Fern Hill part of Bruce. It was him and Adam Mogg in the apartment. He was always so nice, invited me around to hang out during the day, offered to make me sandwiches, gave me lifts to the game, was a gentlemen with everyone he met and would always remember everyone's names. Plus he was hilarious. Seriously, one of the nicest people I've ever met. From a playing perspective though, I always enjoyed Ruben Wiki.

Anyway, you probably won't hear a great deal from me. I'm currently living in London so don't see much of the game other than highlights. I have no particular knowledge of the game itself, so I'm tactically inept. I just like watching the Raiders (but at times I also hate watching the Raiders).

That's enough from me. You probably think I'm boring already. Matt, do you have stats on the longest first post?
:welcome: FM

The simple fact you mentioned my name meant I had to approve :lol:

As for longest 1st post, this would be up there, but I do remember someone writing a 'Matt styled' essay post. Cant remember who is was, but it was an epic novel.

Great that you answered a few Qs too. I feel as though you have been here forever already.

I do believe that is a perfect description of the persona evolution that is Piggy.
Buc to Rod sounds about right too.
Bay 56 is still around, but I think he posts more on the NFL thread than any other these days.
Question is, and has always been, just a figment of the GH subconscious :P

I beg to differ. Get a Landcruiser if you want a tough as nails vehicle.
My Grandfather owned a farm between Hall and Murrumbateman for the best part of 40 years. Had Subaru's the whole time, couldnt fault them - Brumbies, Liberties etc etc. He still has a Forester, not that he drives much these days. Our family is onto its 3rd, my wife had an Impreza, that she bought for her Uni grad present to herself, got written off last yr. We replaced it with an XV and I drive a Forester XT. Love them.

I will agree that the Brumbies were/are a great car but the rest of those buckets wouldn't have last a week out on the station here. You would be lucky to get up the driveway in the wet season.

I read the forums every few days, but don't post often. Disappointed as the Raiders don't play in Townsville this year, but it may actually motivate me to finally make the trip to Canberra for a game.

Loz's preview and the above thread is a story I've shared many times. Absolute Raiders tragic and love reading through the game threads post match. Way too emotional and reactionary to post in them during the games.

I'm Rovert and I'm a GH lurker............ DON'T LOOK AT ME... I'M HIDEOUS.

Anyway I've been a raiders fan for around 30 years and still remember going to my first game when my old man took me out to Seiffert oval for a game against easts in 86. I still follow the raiders today because they won that day, they had a good run of finals footy about the time I was getting into league and most of all Dad would have disowned me if I followed anyone else.

I was only a very occasional lurker till mid 2014 when I found entire threads confirming my feelings of how much Mcrone was stinking up the place I knew that in amongst all the dribble, trash talk, in jokes and cliques I could find words of truth and wisdom here at the GH, since that time I've slowly become a regular lurker. I've now signed up to say Hi and start to contribute my own trash talk and dribble.......doubt I'll contribute much wisdom.

I'd like to thank everyone at the GH for helping me endure the emotional ups and downs that was 2015 and look forward to sharing what looks to be a much more promising 2016.

I recon we've got a good chance of top 4 this year but I've been a raiders fan for a while now so I'm also preparing myself for the spoon.
PS hurry up and start the season already ****.

No, but you are definately in it.

Well actually you are trying to be in it. I am not sure if the leaders of the great clique have accepted you yet.

But from where I sit you seem to be down the bottom of the clique.
