So the old board is gone

[kenyg54]

after 8/15. 2 week overlap, total abandoning looks to be occuring, people searching for new homes.

ESPN botched up another one.

And their new version looks fresh and new if it was 1998.

LOL. I can't get in from work, the new set up is Restricted by my employer.

Sounds like we'll have a new crop to draft from in a few months once it's populated again.

I feel like trying to recruit now will end up getting responses about how "we're jumping the gun" and "will forget how bad the board is in a month"

Think so? I do not ever thing it re-populated after this group left and others left. Every time I ever went there in the last 6 months 2/3rds of the posts were Hurricane fans posting silly stuff (perhaps people posing as Cane fans) followed by posters stating that Carolina is a horrible market. Rinse, repeat. I finally deleted my bookmarks for those boards.

ChrisScott was still there with his objective posts.

If we wait a few months to see it get repopulated, we'll be able to see who's who there.

we'd better have a pretty strict entrance exam

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

The Detroit redwing board is still well worth recruiting off of, but alot of people I tried never responded. I'd post about SportsHoopla openly there, but I fear we have one too many trolls (Probie for example) who'd join up here.

Or just find the best, alpha-male like poster, recruit them and let them give the link to those who he/she think are worthy

 

[flyersfan4706]

We have good mods here, we could just let the link get out freely and ban the bad ones, right?

and jedilowrie. Don't EVER send that douchebag the link to get in here. I and several other mods over on drum's stream had to ban him a few times over there. He's a total dickhead at times.

I regret ever sending him the link and referring him.

Also have mixed feelings about JZ. He can be smart...when he wants to be.

I'm going to try to move the Pittsburgh Pirates board to SportsHoopla. Lots of good baseball posters there.

 

[Destroydacre]

Reminds me of when they switched from the old old boards to the current (nearly defunct) boards. There was quite a bit of opposition back then as well, but for the most people people gave in and accepted the change. I agree that the new ESPN boards are extremely lame, but I think most people will give up and accept them over time.

LMFAO, it did not take long:

"I just want a place to talk about the NFL, religion, politics, movies and music."

LOL!
