drd23 is right tho. discussions/fights are just as ******ed today as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc years ago on this board.
and they're just as engaging and good today as they were in the past.
like all things, there are valleys and highs. people can get jaded or real life take on greater importance -- new job, wife, baby, financial strife, rehab, etc etc
but hopefully the long timers can find their way back here eventually. things free up, the nfl gets better for them, whatever.

I really don't care either way. People are entitled to remember things more fondly about a certain time tho. There is no right or wrong. It's all perspective.

Personally, I enjoyed it when you mod'd the board far more than I do now. But that's not to say Blacky or BPG are terrible or anything. It's just that you had a certain structure re; the threads and we always knew certain things would happen on certain days and threads would be organised in a certain way.
Maybe that's just coz you spent a lot more time on here than most mods do. But I enjoyed the set routines and structure of the board, always felt it ran more smoothly.
Again though, that's my perspective, perhaps others see it completely differently or don't even understand what the hell I'm talking about.

yeah nothing against the new mods from me either. i kinda lived on here and not everyone can. i know some people have an issue with the mods themselves, but thats kinda unfair too because since i left chief has also put in more and more rules and become stricter on mods etc. so the shit just rolls downhill and theyre just regular posters like us always, not actual shitty overbearing mods like on other boards, and the board is still loose and wild like it always was and freer than most boards on here.Personally, I enjoyed it when you mod'd the board far more than I do now.

Living up to GG's board work ethic and time spent on here is near impossible, I understand that.

also the whole point of panties is to get them twisted in a knot. big egos, too much pride at times, bossiness, we all have had our melts, nothing to be ashamed of, just gotta be able to forgive and forget, we family!

I've always preferred Patri*ts to 'cheatriots'.

I'd agree, but I might get threatened with a ban again.

I don't think the standard of posting is any worse, if anything I think we sometimes get better discussion / analysis. The banter is undoubtedly shitter though.
What people usually mean, when they say the board is worse, is that they're enjoying it less- but there's almost always a material explanation for these things. Usually it has to do with whether they're getting the affirmation that they come here for, or not.
Cowboys fans disappeared from the board en masse, except for their thread, right around the time that the Eagles won the Superbowl. Amazing coincidence, they all realised that the game was doomed and they didnt like the rest of the board then. If we'd lost I'm sure they'd have popped up. Did the board become worse then, or is it because they lost their feeling of mastery? Trapped in Jerry's hell world, they clung to the whole 'at least we've won a superbowl' for decades, and with that gone so was their feeling of superiority. BDN broke them.
Steelers fans- that's self explanatory too. From a dynasty to also rans, and some fans just aren't willing to be around for those periods.
Patriots fans aren't really any loss. They've never wanted to discuss anything on the board, other than how they're the goats in every respect. Anything other than that they melt down.
I've been on the board for a very ****ing long time. It's been relatively consistent throughout that time, and the surest constant is that throughout the entirety of it there's always been someone whinging that its driven them away.

Youre right too. It's always a satellite reason....be it what you said, and/or real world stuff, and/or some tiff with someone or a mod, and/or etc. Often too much pride, taking the bat and walking home type stuff. We've all had these moments tho. Andi mean everyone on here...i could name names, but the remedy is time

I think the remedy is ignoring it when people go out of their way to say that they just really really won't post here any more, I mean it this time, no more, this really is the last time etc etc etc.
Some people have been literally posting that some attention seeking routine for years.

Appreciate the tone of your post but for the record, I've followed both the Pats and the NFL for as long as I can remember and in all honesty, I'm becoming (have become) fed up with the product the NFL is supplying. It's flag football, over commercialised social cause bullshit where all I want is three hours where supremely talented athletes are pitted against each other. Might be time to retreat to a cabin in the woods.Geez, the first sign of the Pats not winning a superbowl and you've spat the dummy, mate.
Welcome to the real world with the rest of us.
