Hello honestbharani. There is a very important reason why I have structured the board with different forums like this. Forums which allow a melting pot of all nationalities soon get overwhelmed with poor posting etiquette. The forum rules of good behaviour are constantly broken by people deliberately baiting and winding up others. To encourage harmony on this board I have split the nationalities up. When there is a match on like West Indies v England you may post to either of those forums if you have a sensible comment. If you are not an England supporter and post negative comments on the England forum you will be regarded as a troublemaker and banned from posting to that forum. If you have a negative comment which is supported with relevent fact or argument about the England team and you are a West Indies supporter then the West Indies forum or the International Test Cricket forum is the appropriate place to post such a message.

The International Test Cricket and World Cup and ODI forums are where Test and ODI matches or other general issues can be discussed by anyone from any nationality. This is the equivalent of the old BBC International forum. However, I will deal severely with people who disregard basic forum etiquette because I want to make this board a pleasant place to visit and post to.

The reason England get more hits is because most of the members on this board, at the moment, are England supporters. However, I hope this board will attract other nationalities in the future so it becomes an International board. I plan to advertise this board's presence in other markets so that other nationalities become aware of it. Hopefully, if they see it populated with good posters and the atmosphere is pleasant they will join up, too.
