Let's Go Blues

I just happened to see a member list on this site and I noticed page after page of people who NEVER post here anymore! 76 pages of people and 1866 people who registered.

There were some hilarious names like Donuts for Koharski, ,Steve Levy Sucks, and jivedonkey!

What happened to all those people who left en masse like that? I estimate about 30 people post regularly here now?

Go away

We wish there were 29...

I ran most of them off when I destroyed the Politics Forum.

At least one (maybe two? I have no clear recollection...) of those defunct accounts is an old one of mine...sorry about that!

Hey...what's up?

You must be one of the 30.

Do you want the actual history of LGB.com, or shall we just make fun of you instead?

Tensions ran high a decade or so ago, many people here were a lot more hot tempered, vicious and frankly 10 years less mature. Since then I think we've all grown up a lot which. If you take a good look at some of the crap that gets flung around here these days, you can imagine what kind of zooey sort of enviromnent it was before. In another decade we might actually be civil towards each other at least three days a week.

The overall quality of content and the interactions between posters today is far better than it was 10 years ago.
Traffic may have been up a bit more then, but quantity doesn't always equal quality.
I can post stupid memes, childish and pointless crap all day long in a forum and drive traffic up, but that's just junk.

What the (Frank) is that supposed to mean?

That's kind of the explanation I was looking for. But well over a 1000 members don't even post anymore. Were they banned or just left on their own? If they left on their own then why? Are they no longer Blues fans?

A lot of people registered and never posted...they lurk or whatever.
You'll find that anywhere. The vast majority of users who register at any forum never post anything. But that doesn't mean they aren't visiting and reading.
