    Well I already put down quite a bit of money on this one I created. I think it would be best if he could come in contact, so yeah thanks for asking. (Since it would cut down costs if I let him also work on and manage the one I made) Rather than have him spend money on another new one.

    Curious you guys didn't lurk around while developing your platform. Bold's Endevour has been thoroughly discussed here for weeks and you guys could have teamed up long ago. To be frank I can see reasons for his reluctance at this point so late in the game. That said I still hope you can work things out as you've done some really good work.

    It's all free game there. Sounds like these are just excuses to placate while avoiding the true answer 

    See below. I think they decided to get out of the forum business long ago, deleting it from their business model and buying into the popularity of social media sites where they basically have zero layout/involvement. Surprising development from what seemed to be an insightful management group.

    It was a part of the plan, the decision was made to kill it when they went to the new platform. 

    When you don't provide an obvious link on the home page you obviously are disinterested in promoting the message boards.  It follows suit that they announced the closing after the season.

    Seriously though, find someone who has never visited this site before and challenge them to find the forum page. See how long it takes them to find it. You'll wonder no longer why traffic to this forum is dying: no one can find the damn thing because it's practically hidden.

    RSR has the "forum" link as the very first tab in their banner at the top. That's an example of proper website design.

    A quick update on the boardhost forum. It will be moving to a paid forum that will be privately hosted, with more scalability, security and around-the-clock support. I am personally hoping to see both of the new active board consolidate into one, but I wanted to throw out the update either way.

    Interesting....... Did he give you a time frame?

    We have no assistance from and are not affiliated with the ravens and their official site. I have talked to an admin and multiple moderators each with no issues.

    wow.....With the use of the logo and pretty much the same look/layout as here I figured you would need something.

    I honestly hope that isn't the case. Obviously, I hope it isn't my board that ends, but in the best case scenario, I really want the two boards to merge. Bold isn't really taking the initiative though. :/

    Hey......I know very little about website development and the relationships with copyright and licensure, buy I gotta believe you guys have some sort of assistance from the Ravens, or at least some permissions have been granted.  Correct?

    His board looks a hell of a lot better than Bolds. 

    True, and I'm sure they will start selling ads if it takes off. Not saying that's wrong, but that is clearly not Bold's motive. And I think if you go back and read his posts the Boardhost site is intended to be temporary until he has the time to put something more "polished" together.

    Devil's advocate.  But the decline in registrations, posts, and activity might go hand and hand with the product that is being put out on the field.  Hard to generate new users and generate heavy activity when the product is average. 

    In the seasons we were going to the playoffs every year and won a Super Bowl there was a lot more activity.  Things to get excited about and generate interest.  New fans were coming out of the woodwork.  

    Took the words right out of my mouth. 

    When it's cold out and they don't sell as much beer at a game, do they stop selling it in December? Maybe not a good analogy as far as resources expended, but you get my drift.

    Yeah when Serie A, Bundesliga, La Liga, and Premier League games are played in Baltimore than I would be fine with NFL games in Europe.  What are the odds of Real Madrid playing Barcelona in Baltimore?  

    If you are that interested go see Barca play United in DC in July. Or you could go to Miami the following week to see Madrid and Barca.

    Face protector.
    Came in handy on more than a few occasions. 

    I don't remember what that trick was called but basically ( as is the case with every trick back then ) I start from a riding position, lock the rear brake, and kinda hop and spin all at the same time landing on the back pegs facing backwards.  At which point I can hop around a bit or kick the tire and kinda scoot around like that.
    After all that just jump and spin again and return to the riding position and ride away never letting my feet touch the ground. 

    Never mind....I went back and looked at it more closely. It's your left arm.
