I've been waiting for this to happen, everyone thinks their forum is the best of course. It's the people that make the board and keeping the spammers at bay. Lol

Tomorrow nite 2359 ( Friday May 5th)

I will go back to Scout, that's where I began my message board posting and for those that like politics and current events that is the second most active forum there. In one form or another it's been around since the late 90's and new fans are always welcome.

Arnie I'm making an educated guess. I do know it is not cheap for a company like Invision to run and host a site like this and updates many times are done for security reasons and to keep software current and not state of the ancient. The NFL did bring all teams on the same platform when the updates happened last year. I hate updates too, I am the last person to update my iOS -- I just did my iPhone last nite because it was getting testy about updates that should have been done two months ago. Everything is the dollars and cents

I'm the messenger but from what I was told useage = posting, not the one one hit on say on game day you wish to leave a comment on the game and how awesome the long snapper is and don't come back, or you register and never post. I did see one the graphs, when I sign on to the admin side to retrieve a password and I am pretty sure that's what they are using. We had 25 new people the other day and 20 were spammers out of India and don't count and only one posted. There is a significant decline and add a boatload of negativity along with the posters that left after update last year and the team not performing as well we wanted IN my opinion is what led to this mess. I think it sucks too, I have logged a crap load of time here to help maintain this community we all love.

I should have told you that lol I have had my own forum for years My IT nerds- husband and 3 sons--'designed it for me to learn the back end and I love the arcade module we have. I was made the Admin on Scout and mod here in a six week span lol seems like this core of guys has you set. I wanted to add I have not given up on this place emailing my contacts several times, the last one today. As soon as I get an answer I will unhide the thread with links to Scout, yours has two lol and the group that came in over the weekend. You may attract people that are not from here so have your mods in place and rules written just a word to the wise.

People that know him and have seen your pic on the forums can not believe the resemblance, they say we all have a doppelgänger some where.

Sure you are but I would have remembered if you were there after my first son was born and at tailgate the last 15 yrs 😂 He and my brother went to Mt St Joe together and in the same fraternity in college and they live two blocks apart in 'Nap town,

Any I'm missing feel free to add your boards URL -- keep the hijacking to the other thread. All hijack in this thread please!

You look so much like a friend of mine its uncanny

I think you nailed it, at this point except for the established forums, RSR, Scout or Beatdown it going to be met with some skepticism and it take a lot of work and time. This place took close to two years and it had the NFL stamp of approval. The only reason other forums are allowed to advertise is because this place is closing. From what I understand BoldnPurPnBlack has been allowing people it register and be part of the growing pains. Not a knock on you just advice of someone that been wasting way too much time on forums that we have been told are on the way out.

I think we moved it together! Traitor may have more sense and I've followed the Soul when nothing else is on TV lol Huge difference, Flacco is from that area and Williams from Ohio-- apples to oranges. SMH

The almost worse then Steeler trolls were the know it all Bronco fans, and the kicker was both teams had a bye and it was awful because of all the deceased equine flogging and all the spare time people had for two weeks. Texan's fans could be pretty odious also but started out nice. I have learned to respect the Steelers as a team but not so much the fans. I want to dispel some things about the mods -- we are not paid employees all volunteers that love this team and wanted to have the best board. We don't make the rules but we are charged We don't power trip, we don't like to warn people, we feel the pain that most of the the posters I will miss you guys, it been awesome!

Another announcement for everyone that missed the other 3 notices. When we get the official date and time, they will be a thread here with the options, until then there is a thread in Off Topic pinned for all to find-- Peace Out!

We got booted from J and moved to the lot by Barcs, I think it's 95 above us and I was looking around thinking somehow I've been here before, I was setting up our 'cold' tailgate we do for preseason and forgot about it. We get back from the game, it's dark and the bridge abutment we were parked next to looked really familiar but I let it go because I was exhausted because I had a fussy baby for 2 day and was TIRED! The next PS game I asked a friend that was all about the bands and clubs and verified that abutment was in the parking lot of Hammer Jacks and We used to park there. Oh the memories. Ever gave it a thought to why it was called J lot.
