Hardly any threads get created, and those that are here don't get too many posts in the threads that are here. Its really weird, and something I haven't seen before, but it goes to the thing they are asking- stick to the rules and don't get threads locked. I have to leave for at least half a day, if not a few days if I get bombarded too much for my dissenting opinions bc if I don’t it will start to affect me too much and my personal life. Plus, I’ll probably write something I don’t mean like I did once, which led to me being suspended for a month. Also, Mknight blocking me doesn’t help the forum activity, bc instead of him seeing someone who usually disagrees with him and we’ll discuss issues for days, weeks, months and years, he’s mostly seeing every post he agrees with in the forum. It’s like he went Dan Snyder & Bruce Allen! Lol 😂 ... I don’t agree with Turtle, so I’ll just block him and ignore him and just keep yes men around.

MikeT14 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 So what Woz's post tells me is that, while our population isn't necessarily among the highest, we are very vocal. I think that's a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I believe it's because Thai and I generally take a light hand around here. If we were more militant, the rest of you all would probably roll with it. However (speaking for myself, but I suspect Thai would agree with me), we don't want to do that because it's miserable for both you guys and us. Remember, at our core, Thai and I are fans of this team and we love talking about it with intelligent posters. We don't want to have to be the heavies. That's not what we signed on for.

I’ve been coming on here on and off for about 10 years and there’s definately some hotter seasons than others Prior to the new forum software, Washington was top half of the team forums (want to say 12-15 range). We've been significantly more active with the new software (or other teams have been significantly less). 13 hours ago, MKnight82 said: Nah philly was #1 for awhile. Weird they actually seemed to have less activity after their SB. Green Bay forum has exploded. Back in the old system, Green Bay was usually the biggest forum (Minnesota was #2 or #3).

The Philly guys switched in bulk to the new website quite early. edit - Woz I think you and I were the first Redskins fans on the new site.

Us mods got transferred over before the doors opened for the general public (hence I have user ID 87 and Thai has 88), but your user ID of 150 is pretty low (joined 3 days after the mod transfer occurred).

That switch was weird. Post counts transferred over, but not the old posts themselves. Though I imagine that database was old, and from a software that probably didn't translate all that well to IPB.
