April 1, 201610 yr Didn't we get a good bump of users in 2012. Seemed like the Ballpark brought some in.
April 1, 201610 yr Didn't we get a good bump of users in 2012. Seemed like the Ballpark brought some in. Are you suggesting I help build a new ballpark again?
April 1, 201610 yr I saw that Fantasy baseball is back, that was here back in the days and generated a lot of great ideas. Serious question tho, what happened to @Marlins2003 , @BroncoBob27 , and Fox or whatever he changed his name. Did they tell you they would be leaving or just altogether left? Always thought their debates sparked some good stuff.

Serious question tho, what happened to @Marlins2003 , @BroncoBob27 , and Fox or whatever he changed his name. Did they tell you they would be leaving or just altogether left? Always thought their debates sparked some good stuff. 1) Fantasy Baseball can be good if the people involved care, yes 2) They left, some said they were leaving and others just up and left. I don't know if they want me revealing their PMs to me so I shouldn't say more probably
April 1, 201610 yr Mattingly is meh. The farm system sucks. Jose will be traded in a year or two. And Loria still does Loria things.It's hard to he excited about this team right now. You mean like Stanton was supposed to be traded last year? If we want try to bring in more new users we have to be more welcoming to them. We need stop negative, insulting, and name calling. We can disagree but, do so in a way that doesn't put the person down.

Unless they are [uSER=2328]@SilverBullet1929[/uSER] and enjoy abuse.

April 1, 201610 yr Disagree about the inside jokes. They build community and make this place much less boring and much more fun. Also, I can't recall a single instance of a well intended poster here who was treated with hostility upon joining the site. I don't think actual practice has reflected what some have said in this thread.

Lots of disagreement, sure!

I don't think actual practice has reflected what some have said in this thread. To the regulars, we know the deal. To a new outsider, I can see them seeing our interactions differently. Its a perspective thing.

Sometimes I am reading a thread and it gets highjacked for 5 pages on some random crap. haha It doesn't keep me away. And since I've been following the forum for so long, I am actually in on the jokes. I get most of the stuff. I guess I should stop being a creepy lurker and actually contribute sometime.

Do that, I lurked for awhile too. Get in on this. Especially on those Game Threads.
