You want more posters

[Papa Wheelie]

I totally agree with you but the mods around here are GARBAGE. they have this 'anything goes' philosophy, this is how they want the forum to look. They'd rather it be too loose rather than too strict. Many of us prefer it the other way, obviously.

I'd like this forum to be like RealGM personally.

I might check that out. I'd be interested in the forum's opportunity cost of doing it the right way. I've got to believe that any good sponsors/ads wouldn't want to be affiliated with this immaturity. I'm pretty sure that played a big part in the forum on chicagobears.com.

hah, I just think its transparent how all the regulars line up to defend the mods from any criticism, meanwhile new posters come here and see what a garbage forum this is and talk about leaving

Thats not good. If you guys want to remain insular and circle jerk in threads from now to eternity, more power to you but this forum needs an influx of new blood and you guys are driving them away with your clique-y behavior and with terrible, lenient moderating that promotes said behavior.

new users > you

If you don't like the way the mods operate, then fucking leave already. Sitting her bitching on a message board about a non football related thread, wait for it in a non football related thread. God Damn internet is serious business.

The problem is when another Bears board is created the top ten losers on this board who have thousands of posts(usually not about football) infiltrate that board and create fake profiles of posters from here and the CBMB.

I like this board because there are a handful of posters and threads that enlighten me on Bears football, roster moves, rumors, etc. But I agree with the OP that it has become the primary life for about ten posters that have "cliqued" together to attack football threads and posters with gif's and the like.

My solution would be to limit the amount of posts each day to 10 per poster so they may actually be football related rather than one post out of every ten being a contribution to football talk.

That forum was closed because of cry baby nutjobs like you calling 911 because someone posted porn on an internet forum.

Sponsors couldn't care less about maturity level. Sponsors care about numbers.

I just want everyone to agree with my opinion. I mean comeon, is that really asking to much?

This ignorant post is the epitome of the problem here. It has nothing to do with agreeing or disagreeing with your opinion. It's your opinion about non football subjects, on a football forum, that we don't want to hear.

 

[FireFox]

I don't think writing 'lol' after telling someone to go **** themselves isn't funny.

So, you do think it is funny? I am just kidding. I know what you meant.

Make no mistake. The only reason I am here is because the mods aren't full of themselves or their authority. I don't stay on forums with nazi mods.

So you don't agree with me?

Ooo bugger. I should edit that.

You mean devoid of all conversation? I just looked there and the biggest thread I saw had 44 responses for a game day thread. We do 44 responses BEFORE the games start over here.

You have 53 posts. You really have not contributed anything to this forum. No one will miss you. You are acting like the entitled customer at a store who is not getting their way. That entitled customer always threatens to never shop at that store again. Fine, don't shop there again because other people will. Your 53 posts don't matter anyway.

The only reason you're here is to make fun of women to make yourself feel like a superior macho man. Everybody knows that.

 

[SERE Bear]

Honestly I think the board had a happy medium all all season long. Some football talk when it was available or relevant and plenty of entertainment. But keep in mind, this board is different then the old Chicago Bears board, if you come on here acting like an asshole (Biff I'm looking at you) then people here are going to jump on you. Why? Because it's allowed. If you don't like that this board is lightly moderated then it's probably not the place for you.

There will be a lot more football talk after the first game all the way until after the last game. But the fact is this is going to be a rough room because that's the way Rush has allowed it to be. Frankly I'm okay with that.

Shame on you for believing that is a woman behind that monitor to begin with.

Agreed, and this new user is logging off. Take care.

Regardless of who is making the post, your intentions remain the same.
