ESPN boards

[ercole747]

Ercole, how many times did those posts from other schools involve garbage?? Yeah, that's a nice feature, but at the end of the day, we talked with each other 99 percent of the time. It was RARE that another school's poster came over and wanted to have a meaningful discussion.

Yeah, that is all true, but when the season is underway, the days leading up to a game usually had a few good fans/alums coming over and giving their two cents. Not to mention, in a weird way I also liked those overly passionate idiots (not necessarily trolls) that would make their predictions only to see the opposite happen on game day. It was entertaining to go back after the game and read those threads for a few laughs.........again, its a trade off and the pros are far out weighing the cons. In a nut shell, you have common sense being applied to how this board is being run, and with Disneyland there was nothing common about common sense.

Yeah. We had some people that only posted during the season. By the time they get there, they'll have no idea why the UM board is dead. Then there were some that only posted on that one dude's prediction threads. In fact, that guy isn't here...yet...mgeezer or something i think, or aged Wolverine.

There were some that even only posted on game threads. I guess if this site gets enough traffic, it might rise up on the list of things that pop up when you google, "michigan message boards"

I shot the link to mgeezer, realm and a few others that only post during the season.

And with the chat feature on game days, will we need gameday threads?

So I just went over there - they changed the dates when the old boards are eliminated to Sep 1st. Lol, I'm guessing it's because they realize that no one will use them.

UM board had (2) posts in 24 hours on the "Robust" forum. Yesterday
Main NCAA football had (1) post in 24 hours, yesterday on Robust forum.

Those new boards are a huge hit. LOL... Ro-BUST!!!

They have to realize how big of a failure they are. On a major site like ESPN to have that little traffic on a brand new site - someone needed to be fired for that product.
