Art Project reminds me of the project that we have @ OC. That project gets an F. I think its time we fire Cam.

Loose instead of lose is one of my pet peeves. And could care less instead of couldn't. Saying you could care less is essentially saying you care a little!

I loose my mind when I see people do it. Nah I'm just kidding. I actually could care less about it! :P

Nothing from me here... The board as a whole has really progressed over the past few years.. There are definitely a lot more knowledgeable posters.
The only negative i had in the past was not having a mobile site but now thats fixed perfectly..

As to the ads, ive never been directed to one while running the mobile version but on gamedays when im on a laptop sometimes its constant all game long

I still get this on my work computer and both my home computers. I tried clearing the cache but it doesn't work. I agree its the worst during the gamethread. Everytime I post, I get redirected to a page with just a banner ad. I hit refresh to go back to the thread.

Don't know if its designed for marketing purposes, but its annoying as hell.

The only time I have taken an issue with anything on here is when one of my first topics got locked down with a few harsh words. I brought up a hypothetical about Cam Cameron and if he got fired...who would be the front runners to replace him as our new OC. Now I see those topics all over the place and they are being left alone...as they should be.

Other than that one occurrence...things have been fine and dandy. :)

My biggest pet peeve is when members make topics with a player's name in it and spell their name wrong... come on, man! The roster is right in front of you, only a few clicks away, get it right!

Refreshing it gets you back to the thread? On my computer, when it happens to me, I'll hit refresh and it won't do anything, so I'll have to go to BR.com lol

I have been getting the ads lately also. Only about the past two weeks though.

I have a droid and I can't jump to certain pages. Instead I have to keep hitting "next". You can imagine that pretty much sucks so I stopped reading outside of work breaks lol

Don't mind the deleted posts, but it would be cool if it shows that your post was deleted instead of just vanishing. I was looking for a certain post where I posted a pic (realized eventually it was off topic) and I thought I went crazy because I swore I posted it and was searching it but couldn't find it. Thought I was getting early onset of Alzheimer's lol...

I do that on occasion as well. I'm glad I'm not the only one with the problem. I thought I was going crazy for a second

It's Harbaugh's for not telling Cam to tell the Admin team.

One of my pet peeves with this site is "BR.com". If I type in www.BR.com in my browser it takes me to a custom Portuguese Google search site. I wish everyone would stop slacking off and just spell it out: BaltimoreRavens.com.

And that's just in one post

And it's an article on the main page, the correct spelling is above

A player takes hits and injuries and gives their all, that's downright lazy posting

This should be applied to most of the younger generation. Including the majority of facebook users.

"Who is Osama? And why are we celebrating somebody who was killed?"
"Who is Steve Jobs and why should I care he died?"
"Hey look me! Look at what I am saying and how nobody really cares because they are too busy trying to get people to look at what they are stupidly saying."

When Mod 5 gets a Monty Python reference and Mod 3 clearly does not, lol. Wow.

Go watch Holy Grail immediately! ;)
