I know this was brought up before, but the Michigan ESPN board is a disgrace to mankind now. Very robust.
 
It's almost unbelievable, hundreds of regular posters all gone.
 
and about a hundred lurkers here. I think i'm going to start deleting people with less than 5 posts.

Good, lurkers lead to trolls.

By the way, was DrMagician a troll or just an idiot? Because he was asking for a link.
 
I thought there were maybe two dozen real posters... I assumed everyone else was either a troll, or someone screwing with us who had multiple logins.

I consider DrMagician part of the latter group

He's a troll in my eyes.
 
Monster, dont delete the lurkers, as former lurker myself, i came to the boards to get team news from KC's threads, recruting info, trade news, etc,.... Not all lurkers are bad....
 
I wonder if other teams/states have boycotted ESPNs boards like Michigan/Detroit fans have and if ESPN really even gives a fuck or even notices. just as long as the Yankees/Sox fans stay im sure they couldnt care less...

Speaking as someone who lurks more than posts, I agree 100%. A good chunk of people appreciate the summaries and news updates but don't necessarily have the time to carve out their own niche and rack up thousands of posts...

But I find it helps relieve some of the "Fan Stress"

Completely disagree! I don't really make a lot of posts and I am not a troll.
 
I don't usually post anything until football season rolls around, and for the last two seasons I've been stuck at work during UM's games, so I haven't been able to comment during the live broadcasts like I used to. And I've never lurked with intent to troll because I don't see the point of doing so.
 
I think we all miss Dinky a little bit though, he/she was always good for a laugh or two and then FLAME ON

Yet you have more than 5 posts, so you'd be ok

I don't think its too hard to get 5 posts...
